Thomso MISCELLANY. Vivid Vic! u re of the Devastating lifficts of the War In Ktrepe Victor Hugo, a distinguished French rxile, residing in Great Britain, in a recent speech which he delivered upon the ar.ni versarj of the Polish revolution of 1830, thus graphically describes .the horrid de vastation of the present war: "Atihe present hour, Asia Minor, the .Aland Islands, the Danube, Tebemia, the White Sea, the North and ilie Souths ci ties, a few months ago flourishing, now Ij ing infcshes and smoke. At ibis hour St nope is burned, Bomarsund is bu'rned, Si list riais bunted, Vama is burned, Kula is turned. Sebastapol is burntnr. At this j hour, by thousands, soon by hundreds of thousands, the French, the nrliab. the Turks, the Russians, butcher each other in the East before a heap of ruins 1 he Arab comes from the bill to be killed by the Tartar, who comes from the Volga; the Cossack comes from the steppes to be slain by the Scotchman from the Highlands. JJatteries thunder n gains l batteries, powder n;ig;tzine3 explode, bastions cru:nble, re doubts give way, balls perforate vessels-, entrenchments ate bombarded, bivouacs are under showers of fire; the .typhus, the plague and the cholera come down with ihe grapeshot upou the besetgers, upon the besei ged , 0 poo the camps, upon the fleets. tixn the garrison," upon the city, where the whole population women, children and men agonize. Shells destroy hospitals ; a hospital takes fire and two thousand sick are calcined, says a bulletin. And storms, too, it is their season. The Turkish fri- irate Hahira founder under sun, the two Egyptian boats Abod-i Djihad are engulfed near Enjada with seven hundred men, rales dismast the fleet, the screw propellor the Prince, the frigate iNympb of the Seas; four other war steamers founder, the Sans- i .i r - .1 & . pareii, me oamson nun tue Agatueuiiwii, lie in shallow water, broken by the storm ; the Retribution only escaped by throwing her guns into the sea ; the Henry IV. per ished near Eupatoria - the advice-boat Pluto is disabled ; thirty-two transport ships la.Ien wiih men run aground and are lost. On land the conflicts become every day more savage. The Russians beat the - wounded to death with their muskets. At the end of a battle the heap of dead and flying obstruct the manoeuvres of the in fantry. In the evening the battle-field makes even generals shudder English, French and Russian corpses are mingled -as if they were biting each other. 1 hare never seen aayllunglikc ir, cries the old Lord Raglan, who saw Waterloo; anl yet they will go further still. It is announced that 4 new' means are to be employed against ihe unfortunate city means which make -one tremble, and which they hold in re serve. 44 Extermination is the cry of this war. The entrenchment alone costs a hundred men a day. Rivers of human blood flow ; a river of blood at Alma, a river of blood at Inkermann; five thousand .men killed he 10th September, six thousand the 5th aJctoher, fifteen thousand the 6th' ..Novem ber, and this is 'only the f beginning. Ar mies are sent and they melt away. It is well. Come, let us ' send others ! Louis Bonaparte has repealed to the ex-General Cahrobert that imbecile saying of Philip IV. at SpinoJa: 1 JMirtptis lake Uuda.' Yesterday, Sebastopol was a sore, to-day it is an ulcer, to-morrow it will be a cancer the cancer which " devours France, Eng land, Turkey and Russa. "This is he Europe of the Kings O - future', when wilt thou give us the Europe of the Peo ple? " . ' - 44 1 continue;. On the ships, after each hattle, are horrible crowds of .wounded. To cite only the figures that I know, anil I know not the tenih part, our hundred wounded on th Panama, four htioared and S1?1.""6 or the Colombo, which towed wo transports in the same "manner the mi VI be r I -do not know ; four hundred and seventy oo the Vulcan, fifteen uundred on the Kangaroo. They are wounded in the . L - . Vrimea, tueir wounds are dressed at Con stautinoDle. The two hund sea and eight days' journey between the wound and the dressing I . During the voy age the' neglected wounds become fright ful : the mutilated men, with no aid, no as sistance, miserably heaped up on each oth er, 6eo the worm of the grave come from their' broken limb,, from "their wounded sides, from their c lor en skulls, from their opened bowels ; and under this horrible swarming they become corrupt before they are dead, in the pestilential holds of hospital-steamers- immense common graves fill ed with living men eaten by worms. I do not exaggerate. I bav here the Enjrlidh journal the ministerial journals. Rend for yourselves. Yes, T insist,' no aid. Four surgeons on the Vulcan, foiir on the Co lumbo, for nine hundred and nineteen dy ing men! As for the Turks, their wounds are not dressed. They do as they can. I am only a demagogue and a blood-drinker. nm well aware of it, but it would please me better to see fewer boxes of consecra ted medals on the fitdd of Boulogne, and more physicians in the camp at Crimea." ; THE ECHO. A little boy, whose name was George, as yet knew nothing of the echo. On one occasion when lvft alone in the mea dow he cried out loudly, ! O ! when he-was directly atiswerd from the hill close by, O ! O ! Surprised to hear a vr ice without seing any person he cried out loudly 'Who are "you Y Me then screamed out, 'You are a silly fvliow",' nnd silly fellow, was answerd f: ohi the lull. This only made George more angry and he went on calling the pcftm. wltom he thoneght he heard, nick names, which were all" repeated' exactly as he uttered them. He then went to look fdr the boy. in order to strike him, hut he could find no one. So he ran home and told his mother an impndeiit fellow hid himself ''behind the treason the hill, and called him nick names.' Having explained to his moth er what had taken place, she said to him. ! , . Kjleorge, my loy, yon have dtccived yotHsell. You have heard the echo of your owu words ; if you had called out, a civil word towards the hill, a civil woid would have been given hack in return.' 4So it is,' said the mother, in life, with boys aid girls, men and women. A gcol word generally prochices a good word, or as the wise man said, 'a soft answer turnetlu away wrath.' " If we smile on the world the world will smile on us, if we give frown-, we shall have f owns in return. If we are uncivil or uiiktiid towards others, we cannot ex pect anything letter frtmi them in ptty mut. Ohio Farmer. t;0LDSB0R0, FEMALE COLLEGE.
