The Failure at the Maiakef T6soey IN Gsoom IN

have foreborne to say anything about the gen.
srsl feeling of disappontmsns and vsxssion result
ing from ire recent DISASTROUS effort on The Mslakor
tower till could ascertain it from sources Of snch
uquestionabis nature a. would justify my speaking
er cathedy0.
1t is not the loss which the French army has sua
ta1ed great as IL 3d. which canses any bitterness.
The French, a. wsllike nation and ven versed in
the history Of their many battles-the ebb and
flow Of victory--are not the people to despoud as
check Of much more important character than
this which they have now received. But from tho
first the natien at large has had misgiving, aud
something moro, Of the policy Of tho war o. ali;
and though Succession Of triumphs woasd have
speedily reconciled and impressed Il, perhaps, with
the superior wisdom Of the government a unbroksn
chain of suffering, Of doubtfal advantages, of dis
ease in summer, Of misery in winter, OF resuraing
summer again with the angel Of dessh scattering
cholera on the one side, and wholesale carnage
from the Malakof tower on the other is almost too
much for its powers OF endurance. The
great novelty, too-the English aDiancs-ths ma
terial aid of that feet which from all tims
the nation has been used to look upoa % the mis-
tress Of the SEAS requiring only the addition OF the
legions Of France to enable 1t to bind down the
whole earth in csains, turns out to be rock Of dis
appointment In the painless waters Of this present
policy. The terrible armament OF the Baltic Is sim
ply uoT ct preteoro nichA. The shallows Of that
sea are thousand times more pu,ssaut than tbs
thunders of the Duke Of Wellington, with her 1870
guns; and nothing more ID now expected from Ad-
miral DuDdas, and the fsry devils he comm. nis,
than bloodlets voyage and safe return OF artist
mas. What wonder is it, then, that the re eat
failure before MalakoR should have given rise to
brooding feeling Of discomfort. C'est une guer7e
dSsastreuse ia q fsvorite phrase ia the mouth

should leave Sebastopol with an army of 60, 900
men before it, order the Turks up from Eopatorio,
and push on 70 the field, and thus foroe the Rls-
SLAMS TO give battle. Fight and win THIS, and 90
bastopol falls "a q matter Of course, and then the

suddenly hmped off with the shuttle peculiar 10
him, and began instantly to king 20 some ladies'

The money market is heavy, and gent,emao on
change shake their heads gloomily. the appro sch
ing convocation OF the Legislative and senatorial
bodies has given rise to report that, IN addition to
desast1euse, tax ia about to be imposed upon raj
way shares, the very whisper Of whoa enough to
create PAL ic In the market. For myself, am not
disposed to give credit to anything OF the KIND,
and do not think 1t probable that Louis Napoleon,
desirous 40 he has been OF encouraging rau.
