THE EASTERN WAR-IMpoRTANT RuMoRs.-The
New York Tim states that it has information
through private and highly respectable sources i'll
London, which indicate that the emperor of Rus
sia is seriously inclined TO withdraw from the po-
sition into which he has been betrayed. The Times
adds:
"Our informant states that the recent attempt
of Austria to reopen negotiations with the czar
will afford the desired, ifnot indeed the concerted
opportunity, for taking the first step in this direc-
ton. II is stated that Baron Meyendorh, the Rus
sian minister, has assured the emperor of Austria
that the Austrian note, which had received the
approval of all The ambassadors at the court OF
Vienna will be answered in such a manner as 10
show the perfect sincerity of the emperor OF Rus
sia in denying all intentions OF conquest and ag-
grandizement TO the detrment and prejudice OF
the other powers, and TO testify, at the same time,
conditional on the acceptance of propositions de-
trimena TO the interests, dignity, and honor OF his
throne This reply of the cabinet OF 81 Peters
burg, though vague in its meaning, will be framed,
says informant, so as TO intimate that the car
would not be unwilling to suspend hestites, anu
to send a PARLIAMENTARY TO a Enropeam sress."
The Times is inclined 10 think the move, if it
be made, is another Russian trick to postpone
operations, and TO secure the auxiliary forces or
impossible roads, tempestuous waves, and all the
rigor Of winter, that would be the undoubted
death Of the g sick man."

IL Sick Headache Remedy.-A remedy for
the sick headache, which has been recently offered
to the public, attracting great attention, not only
by reason of the very satisfactory testimonials TO
its efficacy which have been volunteered by many
who have been benefited by it, but also because
there are so great number of people who are ai-
hcted with the distressing complaint for which
no medicine has before been made public. Dr.
Eastman who discovered the efficacy of his ''ren-
cdy,' physician in this city, in high standing,
with large practice. He is physician in whom
great confidence is placed; and we do not wonder
that his remedy for a very common disease, which
has been so long needed has attractedthe attention
ofall sufferers from headache who have heardofit.
From our own Knowledge of DIR. Eastman's char
acter and practice, we have no doubt that the med.
cne deserves the favor il receives, and that il will
prove TO be great benefit TO all who may give it
trial--Lyn,, NesrS, December %, 1853.

D6s- The dignifed, impartial, and very able
manner in which Speaker Boyd discharged his
duties during the protracted and exciting de-
bate on the Nebraska bill, has elected com,
mendation from candid men ofall parties. The
calm, decisive, yet courteous bearing of the
speaker, was potent in maintaining decorum
amid the heat Of contest, and in preserving the
house from that state of anarchy which un-
bridled passion at moments threatened. He
displayed the skill and knowledge of an accom-
plished presiding officer, with comprehensive
appreciation, and ready application, of partia-
mentary law which would have done honor to
his great predecessor in the chair he occupies,
Henry Clay.
DIR. Olds and Mr.. Orr, also, favorably dis
tinguished themselves as presiding officers dur
ing this discussion, when called to the chair by
the speaker, and conducted the business of the
house with coolness and precision that pro.
duced the happiest results. Boston Post.

as earnestly as the salvation of the country and
of human souls depend on the result, and with a
restlessness that would endanger the throat un-

in our humble opinion, narrow down 10 the
plain question, whether John w. Maury or John
L. Towers shall be mayor Of Washington for the
next two years. Both are worthy citizens and
have rendered the corporation good service and
we should, therefore, prefer that the majority OF
the soyereigns select either on the ground OF indl-
vidual fitness and character, and not because OF
cxtraneous questions and influences, which have
no more 10 do with corporation affairs than mad
dogs with running water, unless new principles
are hereafter TO be incorporated in the govern

OF the municipal charter.
Those cxtrancous questions and influences are
