TIE SHANGHAI DRIII.-A correspondent
of the Baltimore Republican at Old Point
Comfort writes :-"Among the amusing in
cidents of the place just now is what is called
the Shanghai drill Of the recruits in the fort.

technical name for it ] am unable TO give.
1t is, however, performed by the recruits
bracing their arms up against their bodies,
and rapidly raising the legs as if they We're
at work in tread-mill. The object aimed
at is to train soldiers for ascending mountains
and declivites of any kind. BY practising in
this way it is said they are enabled success
fully to compete with the horse in running
up hill"

PRUssIAN SYMPATHIEs.-As S an illustration

NJ. x, which latter, possessing himself
of some letters and papers found upon the
deceased, discovered, among others. one to

Prussia, who had senta number, besides many
snufi-boxes, by Count Studgardt, for distribu-
ton among the Russian officers engaged in
the defence of Sebastopol. This important
document was Immediately handed over to
General Pelissier, who will, no doubt, know
how to appreciate its contents.

To PREVENT METALS FROM RusTING.-Melt
together three parts of lard and one of rosin.
A very thin coating will preserve Russia iron
stoves and CRATES from rusting during sum
mer, even in damp situations. The effect is
equally good on brass, copper steel, &c. The
same compound forms an excellent water
proof paste for leather. Boots, when treated
with it. will soon after take the usual polish
when blacked, and the soles may be saturated
