Trntooan to New York without
Landing 1-i-Quick traveling is theprder
of the present age. Express and lightning
trains aro started, and the route that can
.make the quickest time is the popularWe
for travelers. But of all other inventions,
- panoramic paintings are getting t(J'be the
most popular. Distant scenes are exhibit
ed hundreds of miles from places they re
present, and the correctness of such views
is often a source of wonder and amazement.
But writing of traveling, there vss. new
method beforo the public by which one
can leave his home in Chicago, see all the
sights in Gotham,-and be iigain safely by
his own fireside, and the tinio occupied
only two hours! ;
Do you want to know how such a mira
cle is performed, then go to Tremont Hall
this afternoon or evening, and Bcllahd's
Panorama of New York City will show
you more of the place it represents than a
week's visit would do. You can see the
noble North Biver, with its myraida of
steamers, ferry boats, shipa 1 and sailing
crafts of all descriptions; .California pack
cta, with their 'signs flying in the rigging,'
announcing the day of their departure; the
bustle incident to the arrival and depar
ture of the Fall River boats; Castle Gar
den, with ita floating basin; the Battery,
and the crowds promenading thereon;
Broadway, with its magnificent stores, ho
tels, churches, and the crowd of pedestri
ans, omnibuses funeral processions, mili
tary companies; the City Hall, and scenes
to which the eye of a traveler is as fnmil
inr as his own name.
The Panorama is one of the most exten
sive ever exhibited, and for artistic skill is
not excelled by any in the country.

THE ERIE WAR!
Erie, Jan. 8. The men of Harbor
Creek met early in the morning, and gave
evident signs of a mob (spirit. An hour
before noon, thry got ready for their work,
and did it up thoroughly. Sheriff Vin
cent was driven off, and near a mile of rail
removed the bridge destroyed, and the
road torn up.
At Erie, the rioters met early in the
morning round the court house, and were
harangued by a Dutchman. He spoke
broken English for a while, and then broke
out in his native tongue. "I'll give you a
little Deutsche," said he; but ended his
speech with, 'Down mitde bridge, by God.'
A hurrah for the bridge was given, and off
the mob started for it. This was about 1
P. M.. They reached State street Bridge,
which is about 100 feet long, and here the
Sheriff met them.
Just then, say at 2 P. M., a courier rode
up from Harbor Creek with the news.
Shube SnutJi took off his hat and shouted,
"Hurrah for Harbor Creek they have
done it up good." The Dutchman shout
ed, ''The Harbor Creek boys aro the boys
the boys of Erie are tam'd cowards.
Down goes de dam bridge." And the work
of destruction began.
This was about half past 2 P. M., and
at this hour two Dutchmen were on the
bridge with crowbars. Sheriff Vincent,
half scared, ordered them to desist; they
hesitated for a few minutes, but one of the
Dutchmen plied his crowbar to a rail, and
was so drunk that in attempting to rip it
up, he pitched some twenty feet into the
creek below.
"Sheriff Vincent then left. Immediately
Otty M'Can and others went to work tear
ing the bridge. Sheriff Vincent in about
half or three-quarters of an hour, (after 3
P. M.) returned, and walking near to the
end of the bridge, took out a proclamation
and began to read it.
The mob crowded him off, and drove him
into the Keystone Saloon, a small doggery;
there they kept him for an hour, the build
ing being surrounded by over 100 persons.
Officers Loomis and Hunter got him out of
the house to take him home, and walked
on each side of him while Judge Miles
was in the rear endeavoring to keep the
crowd back. Here stones, eggs, brickbats,
snow-balls and clubs fell thick and fast
around tho 'officials' the party reaching a
large brick house, and was compelled to
take refuge in it the mob stoned them as
they entered, and surrounded the house,
and kept the party there near an hour
Mayor King then appeared fur the first
time. He waved his hand to the crowd
and said, "you must disperse and go away;':
ho took the Sheriff home, and tho crowd
went back to the bridge and commenced
operations there again.
About this time, say 4 P. M., a compa
ny of fantastics, roughed, masked with
false whiskers, and drunk, appeared, head
ed by a dwarf, who beat the drum, and
"tall feller," who played tho fife. They
marched round the crowd, shouting 'spies,'
'rotten eggs," &c.
Meanwhile up went the rails and down
went the whisky. Over plunged the iron
into the creek, and out shouted the rioters
Slowly they worked and hard and by 5
P. M. the bridge was stripped, and the
timbers set on fire, amid the brawlinga of
as low a sot of men as could bo gathered
together.
Then the rioters marched to tho French
street bridge 60 feet long. Hero they
had recruits and worked more rapidly,
Rails and timbers were torn up and pitched
down the embankment. Then the torch
was applied to the timbers. By G P. M
the work of destruction was done.
"Down mit de Constitutional office,'
shouted the Dutchman. That caused a
pause. The fear of a warm reception de
terred them. W7hcthcr they did anything
or not, after this, wc shall hear to-day.
The mob numbered not over 500, women
and all. They were of tho lowest class,
tho majority of them drunk. Indeed it
was a shocking sight to see the brutality
and debauchery displayed by these lawless
beings. ,.
This is the disagreeable report wc have
to make of the doings at Erie and Harbor
Creek on yesterday, the Eighth of January.
We had hoped that sound discretion and
sober sense would havo controlled the peo
ple of these places; but they have taken
tho law in their own hands and again mad
ly broken anfl defied it.
It is certain that this violence cannot be
allowed to pass unrebuked or unpunished.
Neither Pennsylvania nor Ohio would be
justified in this course Nor can tho Gen
eral Government bo permitted to overlook
it, if tho power is lacking to enforce the
decrees of the Courts and sustain tho law.
For the United States mails have been stop
ped, and a largo portion of the travel and
trade of tho West and East interrupted by
tho infamous conduct of theso Erio and
Harbor Creek men. Whatever happens,
law and the rights of tho citizens must be
maintained.
Erie, Jan. 10. Informat ion is received
from Philadelphia that a special Sheriff
and Police havo been appointed by tho Su
premo Court to enforce its decrees and re
pair and protect tho railroad at this place
and Harbor Creek.
Tho Judges of tho Court speak in terms
of strong reprehension of the conduct of
the Erians. , . , , ,
Councils havo been in session and had
petitions beforo thorn to order the bridges
taken down and kept down. They finally
decided to lay the matter on tho table and
adjourned to wait action of the Legislature.
Further. The breaks will bo repaired
by to-morrow and all will be ready then
for "a through" passage. No signs rf vio-
enco in Erie Harbor Creek is more
threatening. Still we hope all ..will be
settled quietly ; settled it will be, for the
Supreme Courtof Pa., has ordered a Police
ower to enforce its decrees and protect
tho road. The Council of Erie tabled a
petition, praying that tho bridges may be
cpt down. Wo think "the rioters" will
bo stopped, and the road finished, without
urther violence.
CONDENSED NEWS.
The debates in the English Parliament
are both important and interesting. By
those debates, we learn that tho treaty
with Austria is conditional, and that it is
so iramea uiai Austria may, at the mo
ment, retire from the alliance, without
breach of faith. England is going to enlist
Uerraan and bwiss auxiliaries, and to
transfer a portion of tho militia to do gar
rison duty in the Mediterranean stations.
The general feeling of the nation is patri
otic to a high degree, and voluntary con
tributions for relief of the army flow in
with tho most lavish liberality. Among
the latest shipments for the army was a
cargo of plum-puddings for Christmas.
The accounts from the armies in the
Crimea look somewhat gloomy. What
ever may be the spirit of the troops of the
English and French, the officers of the
two armies, it appears do not agree. The
French find that tho English are haughty
in private order, and though very gallant
soldiers, are altogether destitute of the
knowledge necessary for officers tho Eng-
lish officers, again, find tho French officers
vulgar, becauso they associate with the
privates and non-commissioned officers.
The French officers, it appears, follow the
example set by the illustrious Napoleon
Bonaparte, who was never better pleased
than whcyi associated with his private sol
diers, and seeing with his own eyes, that
they were well cared for. Gen. Canrobert
and Lord Raglan, though giving each other
any assistance required, do not act in con
cert, but each army carries on the siege
independently of tho other at Sevastopol.
As to tho Turkish auxiliaries, they have
no cavalry or artillery of their own at Se
vastopol. This state of things will of
course soon be altered, since Omer Pasha
is now to go to the Crimea, and attack
Sevastopol from the north. From the
news at hand, the prospect of tho allies ar
not very flattering. The trenches arc full
of water, the roads impassable, and the
soil is altogether turned into a quagmire.
It is, therefore, not likely that anything
of importance will be achieved very soon,
and the Czar, it is said, will send 100,000
more men to the Crimea, as soon a3 winter
sets in. The news from the Asiatic Seat
of War is not favorable to the Turks. Yet
tho Porte recalls all the foreign Pashas,
and all the Hungarian Refugees from the
Asiatic army, yielding to the demands of
Baron Budc, the Austrian Embassador.
It appears to be plain, that English diplo
macy has been duped by Austria, and that
Russia will soon have an opportunity of
showing her superiority in cunning against
tho men who now administer the affairs of
the British Empire.
At tho recent opening of tho British
Parliament, Queen Victoria delivered her
speech, usual on such occasions; which is
short but to tho point. Tho following, is
the closing paragraph :
"My Lords and Gentlemen : I roly with
confidence on your patriotism and public
spirit. I feel assured that in tho momen
tous contest in which we are engaged, you
will exhibit to the world the example of "a
united people. Thus shall wo obtain the
respect of other nations, and may trust
that by the blessing of God, wc shall bring
tho war to a successful termination.
After tho Queen retired from the halls
of Parliament, a number of the Lords and
members expressed themselves on the
Queen's speech ; the French nation ; the
alliance with Austria; and the war in
which they are now engaged.
Tho Duke of Leeds said :
"Honor to tho French nation and to
that great man who has been called upon
to rule over its destinies, and whoso saga
city and patriotism has been so well Droved
in the intimate alliance of Franco and
England, which forms the best security for
tho repose of the world."
Lord Ashburton said :
"We must remain firm and united iu
tho war, not only as an act of justice to
Franco and Britain, but to Austria ; who
by joining tho alliance, risks more than
France and England do, inasmuch as Aus
tria's frontier is more exposed to the
enemy."
Tho Earl of Derby said :
" 'Too late,' had been tho fatal words
which marked the conduct of tho Ministry
during the wholo course of the war. Lat
terly thoro had been more activity but
still without judgment, We have sent out
thirty thousand men, but whero was the
army of reserve ? Nowhere."
The Duko of Ncwcastlo said :
"On the whole, there had been no lack
of attention on the part of the Government,
although it was admitted that somo errors
had occurred in. details. 23,000,000
rounds of small arm ammunition havo been
sent, of which 18,000,000 rounds were for
the allied forces."
Earl Grey said :
"I was one of the few, who, from the
first, thought the war impolitic, but hav-
ng now entered upon it, it had become a
duty to carry it on with all the appliance
which science placed at command."
The Earl of Aberdeen, made a few fee
ble remarks to the effect, that the prospects
of peace would not be diminished by the
taking of Sevastopol.
Sir Robert Peel's speech was chiefly
against the speech mad 3 by Louis Kossuth
in London, a short time since. He said :
"We might very well despise all this
trash in time of peace, but in time of war,
it was a serious question whether foreign
ers should be permitted thus to assail those
who are in allianco with us."
Mr. Lnyard said :
"Next spring Russia could bring 200-
000 men into the Crimea. Would the
Russians spare Liverpool? And further,
1 will not mention names, but Government
knows that there arc men at heads of de
partments who are, if not incompetent, at
least incapable of doing the work required
of them. If any private establishment at
tempted to carry on business in the man
ner Government does, it would speedily
become bankrupt. The treaty with Aus
tria I consider as little better than waste
paper."
