There was no important change in the
state Of affairs in Great Britain, either polit.
ical or commercial. The acrimouy of the
Maynooth controversy however, with the re-
naming excitement in regard TO the Oregon
question, had evidently produced apprehen.
sions both for the stability Of the ministry,
and for that of the peace Of the country.
There was therefore, probably from these
causes, greater depression in the British
funds than has existed for some time past.

THE FLORIDA WAR.

Few people are aware Of the origin Of the
Florida war. Alvan Stewart gives the following
account of il:
"The Florida war, which has split SO much
human blood, caused so much human suffering,
ana wasted so much human life, had its origin
IN slavery. female slave, at some former
'Imc, escaped from Georgia into Florida, and
was married by an Indian. In process of time
the daughter of this pair became the wife of
OSEOLA. I he proprietor the fugitive, after
her death, ascer,aincd that the wife Oseola was
her daughter; in person, or by proxy, seized
her in an unguardea moment, dragged her into
Georgia. and made her slave. The great and
greatly injured son Of the forest resolved on re ..
venge, and pursuing the kidnapper, avaed him.
sell OF an opportunity TO shoe, him through the
hear.'
1t was in this circumstance that the war
originated. 1t was prosecuted with nhuman
barbarty for years and cost the people of this
nation forty millions Of dollars. lis cost they
have already borne without repinng, but its gull
rests in heavy load upon them. They can
atone for the many atrocities perpe,raied, for
the many butchered women and children, and
Tor the many hours Of weary suffering the war
caused the innocent people it was waned against
only by abo'ishing the hdeous system of OPP
preston and wrong that could lead To the kid
mapping OF mans wife from his bosom, and
then plunge the nation into a war because the
injured husband avenged himself of his tormen.

The Mammoth Telescope of the Earl of
Ross, is likely, we Judge from the accounts
given of it in the English papers, to modify
essentially some of the bold speculalons of
recent years, concerning the steas universe.
1t will be remembered that he finished in
1910, a lweniy-sx feet telescope, which
proved to be far superior to all other instru-
menls up to that time constructed. In pa.
per transmitted to the Royal Society abou, a
year since, Lord Ross gave sketches of some
of the nebular in Sir John llcrschell's ca,a-
ogue, which proved to be clusters of stars
and which by no means possessed that SYM
metry of form before ascribcd to them and
on which had been founded the hypothesis of
the gradual condensation nebuous matter
into suns and planets, so much discussed of
late and so confidently introduced, as an es-
tablished truth, into the ingenious book emit.
tied Testiges Of Creation.
But that telescope, magnificent as it was,
far from satisfying The ambition Of its maker,
was only the acant courier of the one of still
more colossal dimensions, which has Just
been completed. The speculum has six fee,
of clear aperture and weighs nearly four
tons, the focal length is ftty-threc feet -
Its casting was matter Of great difficulty,
and very ingenious means were devised to
effect it. Tho tube of the instrument is
about 40 feet long and eight feet diameter
in The middle. The Dean of Ely walked
through The tube NTH an umbrella upi
