C SATURDAY MORNING, FEB. 17, 1855 ' TlIEi HORRORS OF THE EASTERN WAR. -'- - SUFFERINGS BEFORE SEBASTOPOL. Think what a tent must be, pitched, as it were, at the bottom of a marsh, into which some 12 or 14 miserable creatures, drenched to the skiH, have to creep for shelter after 12 hours of vigil in a trenph like a canal, and then reflect what state these poor fellows must be in at the end of a night and day spent in such shelter, huddled together without any change of cloth ing, and lying packed up as close as they can stow in saturated blankets. '-, The huts are o t board ships in the harbour of Balaklava, and are likely to stay there. , Some of these huts, of which wo have beard so much, I have seen floating about, the beach; 'otters have been landed, and now and then I have met a wretched pony, knee deep in mud, struggling on beneath the weight of two thin deal planks, a small portion of one of these huts, which would be most probably converted. , into ire wood after lying for Borne time in the camp, or be turned into stabling for ofieers' horsea, when enough of diy'ecta membra had been col Jei-ted. it is an actual truth that our force is depri ved day by day of the services of about 1000 men in every 24 hours. There-are 3,500 sick men in the camp unfit for duty, and there are between 7,000 and 8,000 men sick, wounded, andxonva lescent in the hospitals on the Bosphorut. About 3W of the Guards have died since the Battle of Inkermann. The 63d Regiment, which came out upw.trds of 900 -strong, is reduced to 240 lit for duty. The 4lkh Regiment is redu ced to about the same strength. The horses of the cavalry and field artillery have been used to bring up stores and do fatigue work of all kinds, until they are perfectly useless. We have neither cavalry ncr field artillery at this moment really efficient. The men are therefore employ ed to bring up; n their shoulders the shot and shell for the batteries, as well as their own rum and other provisions and their wood, and this from distances of seven to ten miles, through a country knee-deep in some places in mud. Ol ccure; they knock up by hundreds and go to the tield hospitals, and there they get from bad to worse, and, instead of recovering their strength in two or three days, they are carried down by the French to Balaklava, where those that do not die remain until transports can be produced to remove them to Constantinople. THE CLIMATE OF THE CRIMEA. I saw a foolish paragraph in a paper the oth er diiv, in which some- philosophic idiot bad, with great complacency, proved to his satis " faction that the mean cold ot the- iriniea was not greater than that at Dijon, and had come to the conclusion that, as the people of that interpstine city survived the winters in that part of the world, our araiy would be e qually able to resist the frosts and snow of the Crimea. But the philosopher quite forgot that the people of Dijon do not ordinarily get up at nmht. and walk about the hula around them, or keep huddled up on the bottom of deep trenches, full of snow, having nothing to pro tect them from the cold but a great coat and a ; blanket. An extremely hard froBt began about midnight, (Jan. Oth,) and the thermometor this morning was at 21 dee., 10 min., or more tlau 10 degrees of cold. The result may be in figined. The cavalry division lost about 60 hor ses during the night, and 1 dread to think o the number of our noble soldiers who will re ceive their coup de grace from this weather, it lasts. I am credibly informed that, out of one division alone, 160 men were taken out of trenches to the hospital tents, seised with cramp arid half frozen, not so much perhaps from the cold as f'rom! the want of proper clothing and .inability to move about to circulate the blood. THE LEGISLATURE It is rendered quii certain that the Legist latnre will adjourn to-ra arrow, (Saturday.) much business of importance having been -transacted since our last summary of proceedings! It will be seen that the; Banks of the State and of Cape Fear hare been rechartered', and that other -Bank applications (see Proceedings) . have been favorably acted upon. This consum mation affords ground far: general congratula tion i A very interesting debate (a sketch pf which we shall publish in our next.) occurred in the House of Commons, on Thursday evening, on. the proposition (which has already received the sanction of the Senate,) to eo operate with the other old States in the erection of a mono ment to the. signers of the Declaration of Inde pendence, in Philadelphia.

Gettinuhis Pat. The N. Y. Evening Post has no doubt that the appointment of Senator Dodge to the Spanish Mission is but the fulfil- meutof a corrupt bargain made in Pixaca's name by the Washington Union, before the passage of the Nebraska Bill. The editor save : "That print promised, that, if in consequence of supporting that measure, any member of Congress should fall under the displeasure of his constituents, the administration would pro vide fori him. i . .

"Sam" then took his eeat. The bill introduced into the New York Leg- lalaiora, vesting Chorea property in trastssa not in Bishops, has been followed by a like' saovement at. Hamsbarg. A correspondent, writing from there, says: " The Catholic community seems to.be very maca exercised on tue suDject .ot courcn prop if DEATH OF A QUEEN. Her Majesty Maria Adelaide, Queen ef Sar dinia, breathed her last at Turin on the 20th of January, after an illness of a few week?, con sequent upon her confinement, and aggravated by the sudden death of her mother in law, the Queen Dowager. Queen Maria Adelaide was only in her 33d year, having been bortf in June, 1822. She married his Majesty Victor Emmanuel, in April, 1842, and by him bad seven children, six of whom survive. She was the daughter of Ranier, Archduke of Aus tria. As wife and mother, she is said to have been mobt exemplary. Population or Califoen i a. The population of California shows a much less proportionate increase during 1854. than in previous years. . The Sao Francisco Herald says that while the arrivals last year number only 47,730, the de partures have amounted to 24,477, showing a net gain of only 20,253. The total arrivals from New Grenada and Central Atneriea, which represent those coming from the United States, on the Panama and Nicaragua steamers, a mounted to 29,663, while the departures by the same conveyances numbered 19,528, leaving an addition of only 10,135 Americans, or indi viduals from American ports, to the population. To supply the place of the 19,528 inhabitants who had left for the Atlantic States,' there had arrived 15,101 Chinese, a substitute far from being desirable. For ports in China have de parted 2,536 passengers, showing an increase of 12,586 Chinese during the year, or more than one-half the total addition to the popula tion. A very gratifying fact is shown in the very large proportion of women and children; who constitute the whole addition to the' popu lation. For every three men. who arrived two departed ; while five women and children bad arrived for every one that had left. The number of emigrants who had crossed the Plains is va riously estimated between twentyfive and for ty thousand persons, bat it will . not probably exceed the smaller estimate. Adding 20,000 to the excess of arrivals by sea, and the increase of population may be set down in round num bers at 50,000. In view of these faota the Her ald .deBpvndingy says: This will ikever do Everything in the State is overdone. 'Prepara tions have been made for a population of one million; and unless we speedily adopt means to raise the number of inhabitants, to awmethingi like that amount, we must retrograde." erty since the introduction of Mr. Price's bill relating .to estates held for certain religious and charitable uses. A few days ago 1 gave some extracts from a very earnest remonstrance of the Catholio Bishop of .Philadelphia against the sixth section of this bill, and following the lead, the Catholic congregation of Uarrisburg have entered their protest against the same. Almost the only , effect of this much dreaded sixth section is to remove the capacity of the bishop to transmit to his successor in office the title of any real or personal estate held in trust by him a power which was conferred by an act passed in 1844,-hut the section does not disturb the validitji titles now held by the Bishop, nor prevent-, him from alienating or devising such, property, in nis natural capacity. for the like uses and trusts that it is now sub ject to. The section merely strikes at the ee- eleatastical Holding t ot church property ana transmission thereof, by which these titles are held in perpetuity. As an individual, the jBishop can hold as , trustee for the use of any opgregation the church property within bis charge. There .is nothing in this section to prevent those Catholic congregations that leei entirely incompetent to manage their own pro oertv. from placing it entirely under the con trol of the Bishop, as an individual, but not in his ecclesiastical capacity, to be transmitted to his successor.

A large numuer oi Americans, who had come to Lima en route from Australia home, took active part, it would appear,-in the late decisive battle be tween Castilla and EcLenique. The Yankees fought on. the side of the former, and with Sam," of course, Castilla. was victorious. The following is an -extract of a private letter from PENNSYLVANIA U. S. SENATOR.

Dependent upon the Croton, the water became eomrealed in the hvdraitts, street-. .vwuhers, and small pipes leading iuto the houses. A great many famines, who had laken"n6 precau tions to the contrary, had no other water than what they 'could obwar by borrowing, pr by melt-' ing the snow. 'The fatter is "a slow process, a it . takes sixteen measures of snow to make one of wa-, tor. Ia many boaes, the leaders burst by the act of feeeziug; and as the inner temperature in oreasedi' waili, frescoes,, and callings; were dam aged by dripping water. Stores as vfeU as dwell ings were cut otiMrom their usual supplies of wa ter. Several fires occurred froia the imprudence of servant in heaping fuel into the heaters or sub terranean furnaces. j. tIu this way, in the afternoon of Monday, the elegant mansion of Benj L. Swan, Esq., in La Fayette Place,-., was consumed. No water was procurable tauxtinguUU the flames, or it was of no use whan obtained. By the sudden congela tion, the leather hose exploded j-the fire engines keeanss ftiff ad aainanageabU,-nd the firemen were encased, in ice as rigid as. sheet-iron. Their sufferings were intense and indescribable, and they wvon duty far ten Or twelve hour. Some of the most opulent families in the city reside in that little secluded street called LaFayette Plabe. ' Among them are Wn. B. Astor, Willis! LeRoy; Sands and Ferrrs--alf of them millionaires ; but none of these Croesuses opened their doors and ofi-"-f refreshments to the suffering; firemen. There was a poor physician though that did do it, and a family also, in moderate circumstances, in Collonade Row. Riches harden the heart and quench the ardor of human sympathy. It may be here mentiened that the individual, next weal thiest in the city to Mr. Astor, is said never to part with a penny in charity. Men of moderate menus do the most good, and perform nearly all the work in the world. Mr. Swan, the sufferer from this fire, was in sured, and his loss will be trilling ; but it is not so pleasant to be turned out of house and home during such weather as this. He has a son living nearly opposite, and a brother Without chudren, residing in 9th street, so that two homes were ready tor receive him and his household. Mr. swan has Wni retired lor a long time. He amass ed a large fortune during the war o! 1S12, by hav ing a large supply of goods in band, ana. with drew from business immediately afterwards, while hei was yet under 50 years of age. Since then his fortune has been accumulating, and he has devoted his time to public institutions, chiefly th New York Ho-pUttl, and the Bible Society, aa Uirector.j lie is suu an active aim use.ui citizen, and bears no mark of age upon a constitution na turally good, and always kept in good preservation. Another inconvenience of the extreme cold was the Uaikuess into which many families wt-te thrown fey the extingaishment of the gas, or rath- er cutting off the supply.

The man of the coup d'etat wanted them to make up the House of Napoleon, the Dynasty of Bohapar- tks, and had no objection to their having a civil list of imperial dimensions, but there their preten sions were to stop, and Eloknib was expected to do the rest. The poor lady, however, though con stantly ill, is in a very uninteresting state of health, to all but the aspiring inmates of the Palais Royal, whose chances for the imperial sceptre are impro ving from day today, but who, at the same lime, are looked upon by the actual master with feel ing of a daily-increasing aversion and ill-will." , COGRittSSloStAt.'-.

"We learn that at the time of the sailing of the schooner, and for several days previously, great excitement existed in Cuba in anticipation of the landing of General Quitmau, who was re ported and believed to be off the Island, with a force of twenty thousand men.

Bichardson and Wregg ; and when I consulted the latter, as to the propriety of trying it on him so low, he said I might, to satisfy myselfthat I had left nothing untried, but he did not think that med icine would be of any use to him. But, thank pod, he was mistaken, as we saw the salutary effects in hours, aud in ten days he was able to be out of bed. I remain yours, very truly and gratefully, WM. BA1LY, ;.

When the reso- utioo conferring upon him the title of Lieuten ant General by brevet was first introduced. there was considerable opposition to it. Since then, however, the opposition to General Soott has been gradually subsiding, and a (eeling of regret at such unworthy treatment has taken the place of it. This accounts for the passage of the resolution by a vote of 123 to 65. The numerous friends of the veteran Gener al will be rejoiced to know that the new title is not merely honorary.

The British mail steam er Asia has arrived wilh Liverpool dates to 3rd inst. Her news, so far as we can gather here, 4s not of much importance. The Ministry have resigned, and the had of Derby has failed to establish a new Cabinet. Much anxiety prevails on this account. Affairs at Sebastopol are unchanged. A new complication was arising in the Ger manic relations. Lord Derby, it was said on the third, had ten dered an invitation to a irew ministry, which proved unsuccessful. Palmerston, tiusscu, ana liansaowne, ' were all spoken of in connection with the new minis try. No fighting of importance had occurred at Sebastopol. Supplies were rapidly arriving, and the troops were in a much better condi tion. A slight triumph had been achieved by Prussia over Austria, as the proposition of the former to prevent the mobolization of the Ger manic army, had been carried in the Diet against the wishes of Austria. England had obtained loans from Sardinia to the amount of one million. The Prussian army had been placed in a condition lor war. Tbe Hon. Pierre Soule is reported as serious- iyi. Markets.
