THE DEMOCRATIC REvIEw.--In
January last a prospectus for this great
work was sent to our Office, by the
publisher, requesting that it might be
published; with note appended, sta
ting, that the Review would be sent to
us as remuneration. Ithas not been
sent, however, notwithstanding our
part has been performed. Does the
publisher intend to send it, IF not,
he will please forw ard, at our risk, $40
as an equivalent for what we have done.
We have no idea Of advertising for no.
thing, and especially when the matter
inserted is not solicited by US.

Mr.. TyLER.-This gentleman's re-
sidence in the white House, expired
on Tuesday last. We congratulate
him that, instead Of being "headed''
by Mr.. Bolts, he has caught, skinned,
and buried the carcase of g That same
old 'Coon;o and he has the satisfac-
ton to know, that if his acts have not
been appreciated by the party that ele-
waited him to power, his COUNTRY will
award to him that praise which his in
dependent course and the fearless dis
charge Of his duty merit. Surrounded
with difficulties, without the powerful
influences OF an organised party to sus-
tain and give tone to his administra-
ton, but backed by able, experienced
counsellers, JOHN TYLER retires from
the presidential chair under circum-
stances that reflect the highest honor
upon him as statesman and patriot
Under his administration, the country
has been gradually emerging from its
distressed condition-not because he
has put into operation any new system
of measures--but because he has not
interposed any obstacle in its wayne
has not applied any artificial or unnatu-
raj stimulus to the slowly recuperating
energies of the patient.
Yes, JOHN TxLER deserves, and
will receive the thanks of the candid of
all parties, for the magnanimity and in
dependence he has displayed during
his brief but stormy administration
In all his official intercourse withforeign
powers, whether treaties were to be ne.
gotiated or difficulties settled, his con-
duct has been alike honorable to him
self and his country. We cannot but
exclalm, when we take view OF his adj
ministration, together with the disad-
vantageous circumstances that encum-
bered it, WELL DONE, JOHN TYLER!
g. See the advertisement of our
friend, LLOYD LOGAN, Of Winchester,
published to-day. He offers a rare as
sortment of tobacco, snuff, &C.; and
country merchants would no doubt
save deal of trouble, and perhaps mo-
ney too, by calling upon him, before
going to the north, for goods they may
want in his line. Try him.

which assembled in Winchester on the
22d Feb, to nominate a candidate for

DERSON Of Miss, who, shaking off
the shackles ofparty, and disregarding
the threat and menaces of the Northern
fanatics, had the courage to vote for
annexation--we say they will receive
the blessings Of their country, because,
without their support, the resolution
would in all probability have been lost,
and with it, perhaps, the hopes of the
friends Of Texas and of humanity forev-
er fallen. And the Wing party itself,
at least in the South, will bless this
Independent act of these gentlemen;--
for it is certain that, but for the unfor-
tunate position assumed by their
great leader, Mr.. CLAY, in his election
eering epistles, upon this subject, the
whole Wing party of the South would
have been found jealousy battling
with the friends Of annexation. Their
sympathies, we cannot but think, have
been, and are now, with us--and their
interests, those grand levers which pro-
pei men when all other influences fail,
were certainly involved to an equal ex-
tent with those of their Democratic
friends, and with them they would have
realised the effects resulting from the
defeat of the resolution, to an equal
extent.
By reference to the resolution, re-
ferred to, the reader will see the terms
upon which Texas is admitted.

The first three numbers of this useful
work, for the present year, have been
received by US; and we are gsatifed to
hear ofthe great success of this deser-
vedly popular new monthly among all

And the Editor assures the public that
there shall be no falling off in the style
Of the embellishments, or in the charac-
ter of the literary contents of the work.
He will not issue one or two good num-
bers, and then, after list of subscribers
have been obtained, fall off; but we are
assured that he will use his best endea-
vors to make every subsequent No. bet
ter than the one that preceded it; aim
ing at universal excellence, that he may
be entitled to uniuersal patronage, from
all classes. This work meets our high
est expectation, and We recommend it
as we'll worthy of support, and we are
glad to find that it receives it.

A Story of Russian Life.

We translate iho following horrible narrative from
the French paper of this morning, into which it is
copied from the Paris GaSeiic des 1ribuneaun.--
That journal gives it veriiabe history, furnished
BY one who was witness Of the described.
On tho 22d Of May, 1871 n battalion ofthe militia

ly established at Novogoad, and which closely resem-
bles in many respects the land rehr Of Prussia was
drawn up on the parade ground adjoining the extern
sive barracks constructed few years since, in the
most ancient and solitary portion OF the city, the
Church OF Saint Sophia
In front of the ranks stood General Left; a tall
man Of fifty, remarkable for his erect carriage his
mcagreness his saow complexion and his large, grey
restless eyes IIo was known throughout the army
for his bravery, ofwhioh he had given many brilliant
proofs in the campaigns of Turkey and Persia; but,
whether twas that domestic inftlicties had soured
his temper or that his heart had become hardened by
the frequent application Of discipline, degrading IN
its nature and often horrible in its effects, General LIE
IF had become terror to the soldiers, and scarcely
a day passed in which his command was not signal
lied with acts Of such severity well deserved to
be called Gerocous. r..-#E s.F .r. ,.-a.
It was known however, that this man cherished
profound attachment for young girl, and daughter oil
an old companion in arms, who had been killed in
battle. lie had adopted the orphan child, brought her
up with care and never allowed her to be separated
from him And she, though grateful for tho kindness
and affection of her father by adoption was not the

Hon, Caleb CuShing's Lecture upon
- China.

We gave week or age a brief notice Of Mr.
Cushiug's Lecture at Newburypor.. In the Boston
Journal we find extended notice Of his lecture
in Boston from which we extract the following nsiruc
tive and interesting portions:
To an European or an American, continued the
lecturer, Just landed in China, every thing appears
strange. lie finds himself only at tho antipodes
physically speaking, but at the antipodes
in moral sense. He sees around him countless
myriads of men in a strange gab, aud with gener-
al appearance unlike 20 all that to which hs has here
ofore been accustomed. lie observes the most stud
led uniformity among the various classes, and the
progress of every thing which falls under his observa-
ton, so slow and so unvaried, strikes him in sngula
contrast with changing manners and loco
motive Speed n thousand things ad4noaish him that
he is in strange land. He hears the constant sound
ngs of gongs, he observes nnumorhble boats on the
rivers, ;he dwelling places Of millions Of Chinese
carts moved on land by Sails well as bontS the
water. 1.-THE pilot looks to the compass to direct his
course upon the deep, no looks the pointing of the
south pole,if he receives letter he will find il writ
ten in lines running from top to bottom of the Sheet
reading from right to left, with the date at the bottom
of the leter-no alphabe. being used Int iliographc
characters. The mourning, instead of heiug black
with u.s. is white with the Chinese-he shoe even is
whitened with some substance, to correspond with
other portions of dress. He the saucer placed
ON the cup, instead OF the cup the aucer-sApt-

tied from the father by The son, hut rather, if one
may so speak by the father from the good deeds
rejecting back upon remote ancestry. Corruption
OF blood, for crimes committed, affects ancestors long
since dead and gone, though it does not necessarily
affect posterity. All these things will strike one, up
on cursory view but it is just treat the subject
in different manner. injustice will be done to
great and polished people.

nutely too many ofour ideas, from Europe. We

ovens which the veagoruI soldiers took care to heat
slowly, were literally baked alive.
This crime presented frightrul originality and it
deemed meet that its explanation should be like

capital; they had been preceded by major general
