Brief Review of Foreign news.
The aspects Of the Eastern question
are growing more and more warlike.--
The Sultan has given the Gar notice to
quit the principalities in four weeks
This is tantamount to a declaration OF
war, and will, no doubt, be followed by
an aggressive movement on the part OF
Russia. Rumor asserts that France and
England will cordially support the Sui
tan. There are some symptoms that
Denmark will come 10 the aid Of Russia.
A Russian fleet was within one hundred
miles of Copenhagen, aud Danish steam
ships had towed some Russian mcn.of.
war through the straits. Elsinore IL a
strong fertilization commanding the
mouth Of the Baltic Sea, and Il Is very
important to Russia. Hence, we should
not be surprised IL one Of the first acts,
In the maritime movements of the great
war tragedy about to be enacted, should
be perlarmed of the coasts Of Denmark.
Circassia too, will be the scene Of fresh
conflicts. Schamyl, the unconquerabl @,
Is still active, aud, aided by the Sultan,
will give abundant employment to the
100000 Russians now under arms In
that country. A week or two probably
will bring forth great events.
Amid these warlke signs. very little
notice is taken of the discovery OF tho
long sought Northwestern passage. II
seems, however, to be beyond doubt that
Captain MacCure Of the Investigator, a
British ship of war, has sailed through
tho Arctic Sou, from Behring's to Davis's
Straits. No trace had been discovered
OF the Iamentcd Franklin. -FRAscE
Is to increase its army in Italy, by the
addition Of 30,0 900 mcn.-Mlss Cunning
hame Is still imprisoned. The English
are greatly excited by the news Of her
arrest, and the Government Is taking ef-
fcctual steps in her behalf. The difficult
ty lies In tho fact that the gin she made,
of copy Of Pilgrims Progress to
peasant, Is violation of law Of Tusca-
ny. That the law is tyrannical Is true.
But. bad az II is, foreigner, who volun-
tarily enters It's jurisdiction must respect
Il or suffer lis penalty. We like sug-
gestion in the New York Spectator on
this point--to-wlt: that England and
America should unite In demanding OF
Tuscany, and all other Catholic States,
the free exercise Of religious rights for
their subjects, when travelling within
their limits. Catholics ham that liberty
in Protestant countries, and Protestants
should demand Il % Catholic nations -
Gain this point, and such an arrest as
that Of Miss Cunninghamo's could not
take place without an appeal to the
sword.

believe that ";he Masses as our mod.

That's honest and plain, anyhow.
We think that the "masses" were
never less happy, less respectable ard
less respected, than they have been
since the Reformation, and particularly
within the last 80 or 100 years,-since
Lord BrOugham caught the mania OF
teaching them to read, and communi ca
