WAR.

The statements in our London letters,
which we publish this morning, show that
there remains hnrdly any chance for the
preservation of peace in Europe. Louis
Napoleon has determined that Russia shall
either Immediately evucuate the Danubian
Principalities or that war shall ensue. and
has even brought the British Ministry to join
in an ultmatum to the Gar conceived in that
sense. The Sultan has also demanded the
same thing, declaring that though he does
not desire war he will accept it. But there
is no probability that the Principalites will
be abandoned, and allowing the utmost time
for diplomatic procrastination and formali-
ties, we may expect in the course of Il month
to receive the official Declaration ofWar.
| How that war will be waged, where its
battles will be fought, what nations it will
involve, how deep it will plow into the
boundaries Of countries and the foundations
of thrones, and what will be its upshot, are
questions of which no clear solution can
now be had But we do not think it can
! fail to be a terrible and widereachiDg
struggle, and leave more permanent marks in
history than any other war of modern
| times.-N Y. Tribune.

The Remedy.

Many new inventions have been brought be-
fore the public within the past five years, for the
preventing of railroad accidents. No new in-
vention is required to prevent ninety-nine out
of every hundred railroad accidents. Double
tracks fenced in, no crossings, we'll laid rails,
good bridges, and plenty of steady active
guards on the lines,with competent engineers
and conductors. will do all that we have as
serted for the prevention of accidents. Many
of our railroad companies are "penny wise g.
pound foolish;" by short sighted economy,
"they leap over bundles to gather straws" A
single collision by the smashing of two loco
motives, will cost about $40 ,OOO--a dead loss
and perhaps five times this amount FOR the
payment OF damages to the relatives of the
killed and injured. Such accidents as those
mentioned we expect will take place until
our railroad system is reformed. The people
can do this by legislation, and until they do
it, we will hold them lpabe.-ScientiGc

Remarkable Discovery in Russia.

M. B. Llrsky, the engineer, lately deceas-
ed, who had also acquired reputation as a
poet and an archgologist, made discovery
of the greatest Importance in White Russia
a discovery brought to light when his papers
were examined after his decease. Being oc-
cupied in making road in that province he
found it necessary to drain off the waters of a
lake into another lake at lower level, and
in the course of the operation he discovered
in forest, several feet below the surface of
the soil, road paved in the antique Roman
or Mexican style, with traces of stone
bridge of a peculiar construction. In NJ.
Larsky's opinion 200O or 5000 years must
have elapsed before the face of the country
could have been transformed to such an ex-
tent as he observed, and if this suppositon
be well funded this district must have been
inhabited before the time of the Scythians
by more civilized nation. NJ. Larsky's dis
covery will, doubtless, not pass unnoticed, g.
may lead to important suts,--Scieatifc A

FRESH RAILROAD MURDERS.

In order that the balance of Railroad
Murders may be kept up, another has taken
place on track in the land Of steady habits.
NewEngland leads in blood of that order.
Since the white washing the directors of
the Camden and Amboy Company have re-
ceived at the hands of the Coroner's Jury, it
may now be considered rule that in no
possible event are those functionaries in fault
Indeed "Democratic" organ of this City
calls the passengers to account for their pre-.
sumption in deciding that there should be
two tracks on that road, and it pronounces
the Company the best judges of their own
affairs. This is genuine "Democratc"
doctrine, squaring exactly with traffic in
human flesh, or any other vested interest es-
tablished at the expense of the people. The
passengers who have just been saved provi-
dentially from awful massacre or more awful
muti.ation are no judges as to whether two
tracks should take the place of one where a
blind curve invites murders, especially when
noted scientific engineer is President of the
meeting!
Our news columns contain a full account
of this last murder by wholesale. Of course
it results from criminal carelessness. Some
day there will be terrible account of the
lynch-law school settled,-the compensating
prncipl in politics when justice sleeps long.
1t may be safely asserted that many per-
sons will hesitate to travel by railroads, as
the chances Of being murdered constitute an
actual per centage on the gross number of
trips. 1t is positively frightful to contem-
plate the apathy of the public mind on such
questions. Let the reader figure to himself
the fierce concussion of two trains, each CO.
ing at some forty miles an hour. In an in
slant, the gay, the laughing, the beautiful, the
young instinct with life, are crushed in a
common center OF ruin--blood, brains
entrails, bones, all the hidden vital portions
of huma nifty, are hurled about: sobs, groans,
shrieks, split the air: there lie the dear loved
ones: there writhe those whose marroH drips |
out of their bones, and would, but cannot die !
there howl those who are scalded, with the |
ferocities of the damned;- then come
the long agonies of sulftring-uf mental woes
that no sum can count, of broken hearts that
no time can mend-and then the Directors
declare an extra Gividend-and the public
Iorgets ali ia prosperity, until momentarily
startled by fresh similar array of horrors
When Napoleon was in the height of his
glory and his conscriptions, and France gush-
I'd with blood, the historian informs US that
he wall of private suffering was lost in the
Of military triumph, Such a
country was necessarily barbarous. But shall

Mr. DANIEL T.. SIcKLEs is the new Sec
retary of Legation to London, selected by
Mr.. Buchanan and oppointed by the Presi-
dent Pierce. There is no man in our City
to whom we have been uniformly aud bitterly
opposed in politics than Mr.. s., and we have
sometimes been constrained to believe that
he would have been sounder politician had
he been better man. His avowed and
goried-in robbery of one of the private
Dispatch Post Offices of our City last Fall,
under personal as well as party impulse,
was an act which ought to have consigned
him to the Penitentiary instead of securing
him good Office, as it probably did. However,
let bygones be bygones. If Mr.. Sickles be,
as a Washington correspondent represents
him, and as his speech to Kossuth on behalf
of the Young Democracy of our City pro-
claims him, hearty sympathizer with the
People of Europe in their efforts to shake off
the chains OF their enslavers, we can even
rejoice over his selection to place where
he will have opportunities to cheer il not aid
their efforts. Certainly it puzzles US to under
stand how Il man can be an earnest advocate
at once ofLberty in Europe and of Slavery
! in America, but we will not ask a Secretary
to be theoretically consistent if we can be
sure that he is practically right.
