WARM WEATHER-The Petersburg Dem
ocrat speaks of the late warm weather as the
concentrated essence of hot potatoes. Ev-
erybody-the French everybody-is out of
town, but those bodies not included in the
phrase everybody have a frying time
of it,
There seems to have been general STAN
pede this summer from all the Eastern Vir-
ginia towns, to the mountains. 1t is great
consolation to those who are left behind, to
reflect how much worse off are they who 60
What "frying time" they must have of it
in the close cabins at the crowded Springs
If it is difficult to keep cool in spacious and
well ventilated apartments at home, how
much more so in those execrable little dens
where the unhappy fugitives from town are
incarcerated, and only let out to be fed on
antediluvian bucks and villainous sulphur
water. Let those of us who are spared. be
thankful. Moreover, it is we'll to recollect,
that one cannot always secure change of air
and change in the pockets; and that, where
mans pockets need change more than his
constitution, il il. the part of wisdom to STAY
at home, and be content with clean linen,
pure water and comfortable tables.

AMERICAN INDIFFERENCE TO THE
EUROPEAN WAR;

The New York Express remarks that ZEN
tire Indifference to the European war and its
issues, seems to be the predominant feeling
in the United States. The American people
are beginning to see that this war is but a
war of governments, each struggling to
strengthen its own power. and that there is
no principle whatever involved in it that
calls either for their sympathies on the one
hand, or an expression of Partially for one
or the other of the belligerents on the other"
The sentiment in this country would be
very different if it could be seen that the
war would result in the restoration of Hun
garian and Polish independence. But as that
is not likely to follow the success of either
party, the chief interest Americans feel in
the question, is in behalf of the Christian
Greeks, who have so long been the victims of
Turkish barbarity. Any conclusion of the
war which consigns the Turks either to Old
Nick above or Old Nick below, will be equal
ly satisfactory to the American people.

.FEEDING THE NORTH"

A Suny correspondent of the Richmond
Enquirer, says:
"Much has been written and said lately about
tho various RESOURCES Of our State, Its great sgri
cultural resources In iron, coal, gypsum, &c; Apa
even our Norfolk friends, perhaps asnsmea " ~.
want Of enterprise and proper commercial sP' ~
have been Boosting much lately about ieeong Ine
North Instead Of having chips from every cline
riding in their barbor, they abandon their noble
port and turn their attention to trucking, rsiane
peas and tomotoes for the Northern citieA Well,
our wise laweivers have much to anewer ior TINS
state of things"
We really are unable to see aught in "this
state of things" but what is in the highest
degree creditable to sour Norfolk friends
1t is, in our way of thinking, much wiser to
sell to the North than to buy of it. If it is
not practicable all at once to fasten hawser
to the bows of every ship in the world, and
haul her, nolens volens, into Norfolk harbor,
it is well enough, in the mean time, to drive
brisk trade in peas, tomatoes, oysters or
any thing that is honest. These are small
things, to be sure, but the money that Is Cd
tanned in exchange for them, is not to be des-
pissed. If Northern men are willing to give
gold and silver for ''truck," we are great
fools il we don't consent to the bargain
Moreover this practical and profitable indus
try, though exhibited upon limited field OF
action, affords the best assurance OF ultimate
success on q wider arena of commercial en-
terprise. "Despise not the day of small
things" Even the Egyptians, though they
held the Jews in great contempt, were not
above selling them corn. Let us feed the
Yankees, pocket their money, make them de-
pendent upon us if possible, and then, when
they don't behave themselves, stop the sup

THE CRr1EA.

The Boston journal gives sketch Of the.
Crmea, which, II viii be recollected, Ii spo-
ken Of in some of the English papers as one
of the material guarantee which the n.
lies should exact from Russia As security for
her future good behavior. The Crimea, or
Grim Tartary, as it is sometimes called, was
separated from Turkey at the conclusion Of
the war with Russia in 1774. Turkey in the
treaty of that year, acknowledged the indie
pendence of the Crimea, and conceded to
Russia the navigation of the Black Sea and
the Mediterranean. In 1888, the Crimea was
annexed to Russia. I" 1t is a peninsular, ex
tending out into the Black Sea from Southern
Russia, with which it is connected by mar
row isthmus." The population is about 2oo'
900. The country is one of the most beauti
tiful and productive on the face OF the gioDe,
but it has been devastated by the wars Oh
more than seventy different nations. NO
province in Europe has been so often the
scene of violence and bloodshed. 1t wouid
be necessary to take Sebastopol before the
Crimea could be wrested from Russia. This
fortress could not be taken, except by COM
bined sea and land force. If the Austrians
occupy the Principalities, the allied contin-
gents, 10000 men, will undoubtedly proceed
Mt once to the investment of Sebastopol,
while the allied squadrons would blockade it
by sea. 1t is said that there would be no diff
ficulty in landing any number of men to the
south of the town, where there are six conve-
nient bays, which are unprotected. The
roads, however across the Crimea, are almost
impossible in spring, fall and winter, and if
the allies mean to take it this year, they must
move with promptness and energy.

"TEETOTALISM.

The Edinburgh Review for July (fCr which
we are indebted to Mr.. j. Woodhouse,) has a
long and able article on "Teetotalism and
Laws against the Liquor Trade" 1t express,
es the opinion. that the incorporation of a
law like the Maine law into the British sta,
tute book, if it could be peaceably accom-
plished, would be blessing to that country
The progress of such a change, it thinks,
must be gradual in order to be safe. 1t fears
that the enormous revenue, fifteen millions
of pounds, derived by Great Britain from in
toxicating liquors, would render the Chan
cellor of the Exchequer exceedingly slow to
perceive the force of moral evidence. 1t
urges the petitioners for restrictive legisla-
ton, to incorporate in their petitions propo-
sails for supplying innocent recreation to the
people, such as public reading rooms and
coffee7houses, free libraries and museums,
cheap concerts and exhibitions for the winter
season; and open parks, geological gardens,
and cricket grounds for the summer. By
this course the Review believes that the adj
vocates of total abstinence in Great Britain
would obtain far more extensive support
from those whom they desire to benefit, who
would otherwise look upon the proposed
enactments as tyrannical interference of
the rich with the amusements of the poor.
With the following pregnant paragraph the
Review concludes its article:
''With this proviso, wish God speed to the
champions of Temperance. In these days, there Is
moro reason than ever to welcome every means
which may tend to refine and elevate the democracy
of England. They who are carelessly Indifferent to
the welfare of their brethren, and feel no Christian
mote it, if only from selfish motives The political
changes W hich are looming in the distance, whatev
power to the poor. AS years pass on. the Sovereign
People are likely to bscoma more and more absolute
in its sovereignty: If Lemuei was right (see Pro-
verbs, chap ST. it would be best for all parties that
King Demos should be q water. drinker. And in the
prospect Of his reign the rich have assuredly every
reason to desire appeal from Demos drunk to De
mos sober"
