We translate from the fVetue itUntnt th fallow ing letter, dat4 Woron.off. describing th epectaele witnessed c a tbe banks of the Tchernayaon the H;h of March, when tbe definitive signature of the arm taiiee ly the Allied and Kut an Generals took place The letter says : " The monotony of our enstenc has bea dis turbed by a loag-looked for event. Yesterday, March lltb, the armistice wac e gned. I'p to that time all communications had been verb!. The line of demarcation between the two armies is the Tiher nay a The stipulations of the armistice ar now written and signed. " Yesterday, then, a Urge Fiench tent wac pitched at the end of the Tratkir bridge, on the left hank, on our own territory. General Martimptey, chief of the staff of the French army, accompanied by the cbicfa of the KngUsh and Sardinian etaffs, repaired thither towarJs one o'clock. Almost at the same moment (he chief of the Russia staff arrived The interview lasted an hour and a half, and the (iemr ala parted, interchai ging cordial hand-thakingt and with evident markt of mutual eateem. " The scene waa a peculiar one The Iiusaitu General wsa escorted by several platoons of lHn Cos sacks, with their brilliant red uniform and long lan ces At a short distance, at tbe foot of the plain, a small column of infantry and cavalry was rang) in erder of tsttle On our side a detachment of Zou aves, in fine array, was plased near the tmt, around which aentinels were posted A large number of ol fleers of all divisions of the four armies had arrived in the plain of the Tchernaya, and literally covered both banks, every one in hi epaule'a and wi h stirs at bis side There was a real fratorniation between the two sides, and ws ugam witnessed an exprestun of those sympathies which we have so often remaik cd between the French and Russians Several offi cers recognucd one another, having met before in tho armistices whioli occurred during the siege, bo gourds ami bottles began to fly from one bank to another, as bullets used to fly a little while ago More than one fell into the water, hut the greater art reached their destination safely. " A brilliant young Ilussiau officer, with his lelt arm in a sling, was followed by two sohliers rariy ing a heavy basket. ' Where are the Zouave i fti rers, gentlemen!' demanded lie. 'This way,' an nounced several officers of tho corpe ' It ic to one of you, was the reply,' ' that I owe my wound ; yuur yery good health!' and with his well nnn he hurlsJ, on after another, three bottles of champagne, which were emptied in a twinkling The Zouaves, 111 turn, sent back several bottles Two of them were bro ken on the wsy. 'Keep the corks," was the cry, 1 we will change them at Paris'' 'At Pans!' ex claimed the Kunsian officers, amid immense nppluuno The champagne was choice. The Russians sustain their reputation for good taste. I have threo of the aforesaid corks ; two of them bear the brand Vo Cliquot, one that of I.elegard k Co , and all three tho name of the city of Kheims We interchanged our names, snd amori) our foes was a nephew of Gooeral l.uders " I'pnn out right, in the r.ut, the inns waa mag nifirent To the tielii were seen the Frdouchine mountains, covered with troops who hud come J own en mime from their encampments- French, English and Sai Hnian intermingled He him us there was a like spectacle on the ciest of tbe fortified rampart which commands the valley ami whiih tisi's by de grees, by the t'ai.robert redoubt, till it reaches the plains f Inkermann. Kvery arm was raised, csps were waed, and immense hurrahs flew (torn one bank to another. It was really n moving und excit ing spectacle. " Add to all this that sever.il Knglish Indies cara coled to the end of the bridge, where their presence was hailed with cheers and all other demonstrations. Some words were uttered by tbe chhimmg troopers. They were not perhaps those of civ.lity or of good taste ; thy were perhaps tin so of badly expressed gallantry ; but they were piquant All heads were raised and everything went ori well. On theRussian side wc saw only one lady, and ehe whs in a caleohc drawn by two horses. She was said to he Madame Luders, wife ol the commander in chief 1 lit car riage advanced within the circle reserved fur the staff which accompanied Gen Tatrl.imoff, who was commissioned to treat with Gen. Martimprey. At half past two o'clock the interview terminated Ths Russian General re-mounted his horse ; Geucial Mar timprey accompanied him to the nnd of the ondge, followed by a numerous cortege of officers who had acoompamed lnm out of curiosity. There they final ly parted." Barm'Ms Masterpiece Barnum has performed many wonders, hut the greatest of all is the follow ing ; It consists in nothing less than passing down the Niagara cataract in a vessel constructed for this purpose. The ball is a vessel of gutta percha, thirty feet in d.amctcr supported in the interior by hoops, rings of steel, snd weed. Strings of gutta perch s, coming from four points of the rings, meet in the centre of the sphere, where they are fixed to a coat of mail of the same material. This it so fixed that a man buckled in it, hangs supported by the four strings, sale in the middle of the ball. At the lower end of the ball, where the lower part of the mail is directed, some lead is put, so that swimming in the water the head side will be turned upwards In this upper part there is a hole which may bo opened by the person in the interior. The ball ic co strong as to mstain. without danger, the shock of the fall. On account of its size it cannot sink, nor can the person buckled in the coat of mail suffer any harm from the violence of the fall. As soon as the ball, after its fall, has found its centre of eravity. its inhabitant unbuckles himself, opens the flap, and gets out of the bold, waving the United States oolors unaer the applause of some 50.00U or 100.000 spec tators, whom Barnum intends to assemble, on dollar each, upon the occasion of his first performance. r rom every such performance a gain of $20,000 or $30,000 is to be counted on, since from all parts of the Union apectatora will flock to the cataract of Niagara. Barnum ia about to make an experiment with a doe. If that animal arrives all right below, a nigger will be engaged for tbe next experiment. 11 tnat one arrirce equally cafe, tbe Yankee under takes the first ecriouc passage himself. The trial of the Everett and Price, for the mur deroua assault upon Patrick MoGowaa, Mail Agent on tbe Raleigh and Gaston Railroad, at Weldon, in March. 1855, took place at Halifax Superior Court, on Tuesday last. Judge Person presided : for tbe htate, Mr. Attorney General Bachelor for the de icndanta, Mesara. Moore, and Conigland. Verdict piltj aa to the Everette Price dicoharged.

The project of such a tunnel was put forward irore than half a ceitury ao, and ex tenJeJ prog'e uat mJe ia the work whea tbe ground trckc tkroegi ander th preware of high tides, and the scheme was reported impracticable But the present age d'jes not recniic irapraciica tilh.es.

Tbe neigbbhouJ ic tommerc al and populous, ae.1 a bridge would be too much in 'be w ay of vest's At the same time an increased facility of eommunicalioB between the two bores was very much tee Jed A company waa formed and chartered in 1824. Mr. Brunei was appointed engiaeer. He Ugan by ersct mg a euba antial cylinder ol brick work 30 feet ia diameter, 42 feet h gh, and 3 teet thick, which was sunk tn ma at into the ground t'poo the top of the cylinder was placed a steam eng ne for pumping out water and raising excavated earth. By this means the cylinder was forced through a bed of quick -and, which had compelled the drift-makers formerly to suspend their wJk. The shaft having been souk to the depth of CS feet, another smaller one, 2z feet in diameter, was also sunk from this lower level ac a reservoir for the drainage of water. I he excavation was commenced, then, at the depth of G3 feet A powerful iron apparatua was used called a " shield." " It consisted of 12 great frames, lying close to each other, like so many volumes 011 the shelf of a book caee. Tbe frames were 22 fcrt high and 3 fret broad They were each divided into three stages or t'ri, thus presenting 36 chambcrc or cc'ls for the workmen by whom the ground wac cut down and secured in front and the bricklayers by whom the structure was simultaneously formed." The t'ntld was placed in portion at the bottom of tl e shalt January 1st, t82ti Tbe progreta of the woik wse of course slow It waa necessary to pro ceed cautiously and to ecure firmly every foot ad vanced With a nver running above, it was only prudent to keep a good watch below. The firat im pediment came early. On the 25th January the stra tum of clay through which the excavation had been worked broke off tudden'y, leav n the ehield tor upwards of six weeks open to a considerable influx of land water, which flowed from a bed of sand and gr ivel that was saturated anew at each rise of the tide This difficulty having been overoome. the woik proceeded, and on the 80th of April, 1S27, the tunnel had extended 490 feet under the river. The next month, and again in tbe following January, the rver broke in, and six men were drowned, Mr. Brunei, jr., having been carried by the rush of wa ter uji the shall (treat apprehensions were now felt for the success of the enterprise llundredcof plans wsre offered for filling up the cavity nnd to prevent future accidents Kut the chasms in ths bed of tbe nver were filled by bsgs of clay, and when the tut.nel was cleared of water the structure was tound uninjured The work, however, was suspended for want of funds for seven years " "thee gri'at sptvulaturt hv bet-n nnrtl Till want uf frocccilj laid thin on tbe ht lf ; Hut thy concern wan at the worst When it lifgun to lyuiiialf itsrlf." '1 1 1 11 as nang Tom Hood in an ode to Brunei when the prosecution of the work seemed doubtful But Parliament sanctioned a loan in aid of it, urul it was reaumed m March 1836 During that year 1, 17 feet werei ompleted, in l8o7 only 29 feet, in 1838, 80 feet; in 181'J, I'M fet; in 1850, CO feet , and in 1141 the leiniiining distance was accomplished to the shaft ut U'apping. In August Brunei pasvl through the tunnel from shore to shore His triumph was com ldete. (Jueen Victoria recognized it by knighting him In March, 1813, it was opened ac a public thorough fare. Its length from shaft to shaft is 1,200 feet, its width Jo feet . each arch wsy and loot-path clear width about 14 leet , thickness of earth between the crown of the tunnel and tbe bed of the river about 1.1 feet The tunnel cost about X450,oOo. The dangers of the work were insry, and the miners often suffered serious alarms. " Sometimes portions of the shield hioke with the noixe ol a cannon shot, then alarm ing cries told of some irruption, of earth or water; but the excavators were moro inconvenienced by fire than water, gaa explosions fiequently wrapping the place in a sheet of flame, strangely mingling with the water and rendering tbe workmen insensible ' -Yet only seven lives were lost in making it. Tbe tunnel at present is both a success and a fail ure. As an eiarr.ple of engineering skill it is un doubtedly a great triumph. But until it can he used for vehicles as well ss foot paseengeis it will not an swer its original purpose It ic reached now by a winding stnircnn down the shaft on cither side of the river, ami it i opned day and night for passen gers at a toll of one penny each. It ic lighted with gas, and soaie of its arches art occupied as small shops and for the exhibition of works of art The ap proaches for vehicles are intended to be circular, by shafts 200 feet in diameter Their cost is estimated at jC180,000. We Jo not undeiaiand th ttanypto Imhility exists of their early construction. Absorption or Isdia bv F.nci.and The Marquis of Dalhousie hns closed hit eight years' government of India by adding to the British Indian empire a country as large and ns populous as Scotland, ami considerably more feitile. But this latest of the gov ernor generals has ha I upon him, throughout his long administration, a vet j furor of annexation. He has annexed the Punjab, with an area of 78,000 square miles, and a population of 7.0(10,000 ; he has annexed Berar, with an area of 80,000 square n ilea and a population of 4,000,000; he has annexed I'e f;u, with an area of 20,000 square miles and a pnpu ation of ,f00,000; and he has annexed the king dom of Oude, with an area of 24.000 square miles nnd a population of 3. 500,000. The country thus annexed is equal to twice the extent of the three United Kingdoms, with a population exceeding in number all tho inhabitants together of Belgium, Holland, Denmark, and the two Scandinavian king doms. The financial results of his government are, however, the London Examiner remarks, very far indeed from corresponding with the mightiness of these acquisitions In every year of the administra tion of Lord Dalhousie, with the exception of one when there was a paltry surplus of 352,000, there has been a defalcation of revenue ranging from Xl, 000,000 to X2.000.000, and last year it was the worst of all, for the deficiency amounted to X2.500, 000, a sum equivalent to a defalcation of 3,000, 000 in the imperial revenue. Swoanrisa vs. Steamship. A large swordfish, weighing five or six hundred pounds, met the steam chip Coruc off the mouth of the gulf of California, and probably mistaking the steamer for a whale, made a "lunge" at her. The conseauence was, that the .word ran into the clout timbers nearly a foot deep, and was broken off. The. fish departcd.no doubt, a sadder and wiser animal. Bochsa, tbe Harpist, who died in Australia on the 7th of January, was a native of Bohimia, and about 80 years of age. He was a composer of considera ble ability ; the author of several operas, and offici ated as orchestral leader far Pasta, Malibran, Son tag and other, of the great musical start, and in that cphere he was esteemed by Sontag and Rubini a perfect macter. During bic career in France, Italy and Germany, he waa the intimate friend of the com posers, Bellini, Coniaetii, and othera, and taught the harp to the Empress Josephine, at Fontainbleao, and also to the Em press Maria Louise. In London he led the orchestra at the Opera House, and waa the founder of the Royal Academy of Music. It ic be lieved he died quite wealthy, as hie last tour through the United States and Mexico, with Madame Bishop, was attended with success. He fell a victim to dropsy and ossification of the heart, at the residence of Madame Bishop ia Sydney. .. -L.t.. I .. I " is .ilir il;ii.'.'r i'rs.irt.
