Skoacing their hands.-The wings, now
that they are firmly seated in power for the
next four years, are beginning to show their
hands-to avow their principles. The Toledo
Blade. bitter wing paper, is out flatfooted
for United States Bank
The following paragraph We cut from a
long article in that paper:
1--WE have always considered, and still con.
slider, the United States Bank, or something
very like it, e a rose BY any other name would
smell as sweet,') as one Of the best financial
institutions that the country ever has or pro-
baby will possess"
The cloven foot of whiggery will stick out
after election. Before the late Presidential
election. the Blade could not have been indu-
ced to declare in favor of United States Bank.
If questioned on the subject, it would have
declared it " obsolete,' as did Webster No
whig in the Union would have dared to incor-
porate bank in the ''platform of the party.
Now, we shall not be surprised to hear the
leaders of the party in the next Congress, if
they find they have strength, start the old IA
vorite meaeure-Detroit Free Press.

The Russian Army-A formidable Array
Now that Russia has reappeared upon the
battle field of Europe, statement of her Mi
litary resources will have general interest,"
The following statistics upon the subject are
condensed from the New York Courier:
The land forces of Russia amount TO ,000,-
900 of men in the war establishment, and are
arranged into six main bodies of the army, the
general reserve and the several corps of Cos
sacks. The first division, the great movable
European army of operations contains ASS. 720
men. These are arranged INTO 386 hattallons
of footmen, together BIG, 900 men, 400 squad
rons of horsemen. together 10 ,720 men, and
70 brigades of artillery, with 1900 pieces. By
adding the artillerists, the train, the companies
of workmen, &C.. the great army of operation
may be estimated at $40, 900 men The Army
of Reserve contains 202. 48O men. To these
must be added the artillerists. sc. The total
of the pieces of artillery belonging to the ar
my of reserve amounts to 472. The Cauca.
sian army, the third division, has $50, l67
troops. with 3O2 pieces OF artillery. The ar
my in Finland consists of 10000 men, with
Is pieces of artillery. The main body of the
army in the province of Orenburg is $4,000
men, with Is pieces of artillery. The army
in Siberia, Is, 900 men. 16 pieces of artillery.
The several corps of Cossacks, who are la
BILE to active service abroad in time of war "a
mount TO $4,000 horsemen. The Cossacks,
who have several particular appellations with
reference to the parts of the country where
they live, (for instance, Cossacks of the Don
Cossacks of the IRA, &c and who number
upon the whole, about 600 900 men able &c
carry arms. are genuine Russians, as well as
the great mass of the nation, but with the
difference that they, since the year 1854, en-
Joy many political and social privileges.
The disposable forces Russia Is able IL
send in the field in time OF war amount to a
bout 10000 men. Of course they consis
only of the European armies OF operation!
and reserve and of the regiments of Cossacks
because the main bodies of the army in eau
casian Russia, in the province of Orenburg
&c, must keep their stations for the maintain
ing of internal peace and order there, and TO
the safety of the frontiers. According 10 tht
latest official reports, the total of the popula
lion throughout all parts of the Russian EN-
pire amounts to about sixty-seyen millions in
habitants.
The reader may Judge from this exhibi
what the Hungarians have to encounter, witt
Austria combined with this formidable power
and Prussia probably lending lis aid.

{ New York, IS.

| City and County of New York, IS.
William Armstrong of said city being duly
sworn, doth depose and say that he is practical
Druggist and Chemist. That some time in the
latter part of May, or first of June, ls4s, man
by the name of Jacob Townsend, who at that time
was book and pamphlet pediar, called upon de.
ponent at the house of Mr. Thompson. No. AZ Hud-
son street, where deponent boarded, and requested
deponent to write him recipe ty which to make
Syrup of Sarsaparla. Deponent further says,
that he became acquainted with said Townsend at
the Office of Theodore Foster, Esq. book publish
er, with whom said Townsend dealt. That said
Townsend had had frequent conversations with
deponent respecting the manufacture of an article
of Sarsaparilla to be sold under the name of DR.
Jacob Townsend.
That said Townsend stated he was an old maa
and poor, and was not fit for hard labor and wish
ed to make some money in order to live easy in
his old days, and that if Sarsaparilla under the
name of Townsend sold so well. and so much mo-
ney was made by it, he could see no reason why
he might not make something out of it too, (his
name being Townsend,) If he could get capable
person to prepare recipe and manufacture it for
him. Deponent ia one of the conversations asked
said Townsend if he was related to DR. S Town
send to which he replied that he knew DR. s P.
would be down on him after he should commence;
but that he did not for him, as he had formed
copartnership with men who could furnish the
requisite amount of capital--and was well prepa-
red to defend himself against any attack that might
be made on him.
Deponent further says that pursuant to the re-
quest of said Jacob Townsend, he wrote recipe
for the manufacture of Syrup of Sarsaparilla and
gave it to him. Said Townsend observed that he
wanted to make specimen 10 exhibit to his part
ners for their approval, as he wished to crafty
them in every thing, they furnished all the cap
ital ;--sad Townsend also told deponent that the
bottles they were to use to be of the same
size and shape DR. S. P.'s. and deponent. at the
request of said Jacob Townsend. went to the office
Of DR. s. P. and procured one of his labels.
And dePonent further says that he has been in
formed and verify believes the Syrup of Sarsapa-
riIla sold as Old DR. Jacob Townsend's, is made
after the recipe furnished by deponent to Jacob
Townsend, as aforesaid.
And further deponent saith not.
