can show that "as fine fleece be procured in the
United States as in any portion of the world He
saws that he has in his possession wool grown in AL
legheny county, Pennsylvania, by Vim. Hall, which
measures from i-2le6 to 1880 part of an inch,

on wool did injustice to the specimens of American
wool exhibited.

THE WAR NEWS.

The las, arrival from Europe indicates the most
thorough preparation on the part Of Turkey, for
desperate and sanguinnry war with Russia. The
russians upon the other hand, making all need
f4l preparation, and determined not to leave the
municipalities until the Porte shall have given to the
Car the moral satisfaction he demands. War be
tween these countries is therefore regarded as inev-
liable What is to lie the position Of England and
rrnncN time alone can demonstrate.
