 Under the obituary head in to-day's paper will be found the death of Mir. Jacob Reese On the day of his death MT. Reese was engaged in seeding oats, and towards evening was startl- ed by voice apparently at his elbow saying " Y ou may SOW but you shall not reap" He looked around, and seeing no one, continued his work of seeding, attributing it, as he after wards said, to his imagination. At every step however, the warning was repeated, and at last unable to bear it, he proceeded home to his wife He was persuaded by her that it was only ima- gination, and finding that he had no fever, and did not complain of any unusual indspostion she induced him to return to the field There however, the same solemn warning voice attend ed him at every step: "You may sow but yol shall not reap!" and in stat. of extreme ag tation again quit work and went home. He tool an early supper was shortly afterwards attack ed with swelling in the throat; and before sunrise the next morning he was a corpse

The Allies and Russia.

From the present position of affairs, as re- ported by the papers, one might suppose these great belligerents were playing hide and seek" for the amusement of the world With the most formidable fleet that ever foated upon the ocean, nine months have elapsed and nothing to excite alarm in the Russian power has been effected. Commodore Napier, with his crowd of battle ships, floats quietly, month after month, on the blue waves of the Baltic cursing no doubt, the slow and timid policy of the Eng fish government, as he glances through his glass at the drowning fortress of Cronstadt.- The Black sea division of the fleet, battered Odessa for day or two and retreated, since which time they have been engaged in running down and confscating small craft caught from home. The whole seems to have been set tied scheme of "backing and filing" which has won no honor for the Western powers and has given Turkey but little aid in her distress.
 The allied army has, if possible, surpassed their naval coadjutors in supineness. With hundred thousand troops already landed up- on the shores of the enemy, no engagement has taken place that can be dgnifed with the name of battle. It is not the policy of the Czar in the present phaze of this aggressive warfare, to seek a combat except for the pur- pose of defence, while the aggressors are wait ing until Nicholas comes to "knock the chip from their hats.'
 Much has been said of preparations for storm ing simultaneously, by sea and land that mo- dle fortress of the world, Sebastapol. Engi- neers and military men say that no fortifcation has ever been constructed on land that could not be taken, but if there ever was fortress which could be called impregnable, Sebastopol might be so distinguished.
 Before land force will be able to cD-opc- rate with the fleet in the attack, long and weary, if not bloody march through the ene- my's country must be achieved, and from that time the war may be truly said to have com menced. We may then look for stirring scenes and hear of the clash of arms and of heroic deeds, instead of the tacit armstice which has made "the war a bore''
