TEE WAR WITH RUSSIA.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. g
Sin,—Just before the late visit to Engl°,. oft,
Belgian King, and father-in-law of the Emper°"o9
tria's cousin, appeared in the London daily °.gge
statement that H.R.H. the Duke of Cambrlnpr
accepted the command of the Foreign Legion fripeoof
ing at the expense of this country to conlbs.o
ambition. Just as the same inauspicious visib
appeared the counter-statement that H.R.11
enter upon that command. Was the sinister v'to
way connected with the cancelling an appoietnieof OF!
welcome to English patriotism, and whieb'
than a week, the silence of H.R.H. appeared
On another matter, Sir, and descending ftrefilesil
tritons to the minnows : Dr. Hall affirms, is
to his famed report, " that the hospital at Seo,- j,

Did Dr. _Flail not know, or ought he not to 13%0
seen when he made his report, that the hosPitleo,
moment comparatively empty, would shortly

would then arise ? He is defended by a Dr. Y-ello ty
of whom all we know is that he (Dr. D.) Pll°,3sY

General-in-Chief bad reproved and just before seej of 'd
