by this war Of principles, is perplexing and
embarrassing in the extreme Their dynastic
interests and partalities, as we have already
had occasion to show, incline them towards the
Court of Russia whilst the opinions and feel
ings of their subjects (the aristocratic classes
excepteD are naturally enlisted on the demo
cratic side. Between their dread of the power
OF the Gar on the one hand, and the dangers of
q revolution fomented and encouraged by the
maritime powers on the other, the German
soveregns are placed between two formidable
alternatives, which paralyze their action and
leave them no other option than to abide
the contingencies of war. Pressed, in the
meantime, by the solicitations and menaces of
the adverse powers, they are either compelled
to make show of lukewarm cooperation. or Of
ostensible neutrality. 1t is easy to foresee.
however that the first decisive successes gained
by the Gear will put an end to this hesitation
and give rise to fresh combinations. In that
case England and France will be left to bear
the entire brunt Of the war.
On the eventual issue of the struggle it is Of
course impossible to calculate that it will be
long and terrible one there is but too much
reason to fear. Were its character to be deter
mined by the maritime resources Of the respec-
tive powers, there would be no question as to
the result; but unhappily it is on the land, and
not on the sea, that the fate of the contest must
be decided. The humiliation of the entire
Russian fleet would not advance by an hour
the settlement of the difficulty. Whether the
maritime powers will be able to bring into the
field force sufficient to neutralize the immense
resources of the Car, or whether their union
viii stand the test of the reverses to which they
may be exposed in a hostile and almost impreg-
nabe territory, are questions that time only
can solve. The conditions of military success
have besides been so much altered by the intro
duction of the electric telegraph and railroads,
and by numberless scientific improvements in
the machinery OF destruction, that it is difficult
to speculate with anything like certainty on the
eventuaities of a war carried on with the aid
of these new and untried auxiliaries.

FORREST As THE GLADIATOR.

MIR. Forrest appears this evening in
another American play, written for him
by DIR. Bird, author of a number of works
of great literary excellence, late editor of
the Philadelphia North American, whose
sudden death We announced few weeks
ago. The play of the Gladiator, is a pro-
duction of great interest and power, and
is personated by Mr.. Forrest with char
acteristic ability. No matter how con-
sidered, whether as production for the
stage or the closet, it is composition of
eminent merit. A crowded house will
doubtless welcome it this evening.

AWFUL DEATH.-A most tragical tale
is told of the sutferings of three soldiers
of a detachment of the Goth Regiment,
now stationed at Toronto, and black
man, who got into q boat with the
soldiers with the intention of deserving,
and getting over to Crat Island, and from
thence, asoppertanity offered, to America.
Alter while, the wind arising, they
were driving out Of their course, and SO
remained in the open boat for several
days, without food or water. At length
one of the soldiers proposed to draw lots,
that one should be killed to furnish food for
the others. They did so, and the lot fell
upon Thomas Buckly, one of the soldiers
who forthwith bound up his arm, and
opened vein to bleed himself to death.
One of the others, and the black
man sucked his blood, and after
wards went raving mad, and jumped into
the sea. Buckley also died; and there
remained only one soldier out of the party
IN the boat, William Lennon, who threw
the dead body into the sea, dashed the
helm and left himself to his fate. He had
not tasted any of Buckeyes blood be.
cause, according to his own statement,
he had felt scruple at doing so, as he
had been his comrade. After IL DAYS
drifting, the boat was driven on the coast
of St. Domingo, and the coast-guard
found the survivor, and after giving him
refreshments, sent him to Jacmel to the
English Consul, before whom he made q
relation of the fact as above, and he was
sent back to Tortola in the steamer
Barbados paper.
