A War of Sjrag0es.

The New York Express publishes mustard and
pepper correspondence between two strong minded
and spiteful blue stockings Of New York, Mrs i.
Cakes Smith, and Mrs. Estelle A. Lewis The
quarrel was caused by a charge that Mrs. Lewis
had feloniously taken possession of literary
bantling" Of Mrs. Smiths and passed it off as her
own Mrs Lewis, thereupon, waxed wroth in the
extreme and declared that the "honor of flching
a bantlng from Mrs. Smiths rookery was, in her
(frs L's) opinion, equivalent to the taking of one
from a common hearooSt.' At this foUl alusion
the feathers began to fly, and the two enrageG
matrons of the barnyard began to claw eacf
others eyes out. Mrs. Smith talks of the gross
ness" "indecency," and Billingsgate," of Mrs
production is signed by woman. Mrs. Lewis
comes back upon Mrs. Smith with increased vim
and fury, and brings her vocabulary of insult and
invective to a climax by calling Mrs Smith "a
venerable lady" This was "the unkindest cut OF
all" It seems to have inflicted mortal stab for
we have not heard a word from Mrs E. Oakcs
Smith since. The New York Express comes to
the rescue of the vanquished dame, and declares
that she is not than three four years on the
shady side of fifty. We don't think Mrs Smith
will thank the Express for its advocacy If it had
not been very officious in mentioning her exact
age, the public might have supposed that "vener-
able 2" was mere fling of the exasperated Mrs
Lewis having not much foundation in fact But the
bungling of the Express has finished what little of
Mrs. Smith had been left by Mrs Lewis. We see
but one chance for retaliation. How old is Mrs.

The Late X. M, SulIy.

We briefly adverted yesterday to the death Of
our late townsman, r. M. SULLY, the gifted artist
the productions of whose magic pencil have long
ago established his fame as a man of genius and
given him most enviable rank in his profession
Mr. Sully at the time of his death, was OH his way
10 Wisconsin, where he had been employed by the
Historical Society of that State to paint Indian por
traits. He was in feeble health when he left Rich
mond, and it is believed that the abrupt transition
from warm to a cold climate aggravated the pul.
monary disease under which he labored, and has.
tened his death. He was perfect stranger in Buf.
falO, where he died, with none that knew him near
his last pillow. In Virginia, his home, his native
land, and the dearest spot ON earth to his heart
his memory viii long be cherished and his penirs

THE BRITISH SQUADRoy.-The Boston Atlas
has been informed by Capt. Newlands, passen-

wrathful comments of the London Times about
the supposed expeditions from the United states
excited only merriment among business men. The
story he reports was traced to certain Expressions
used by Thomas Francis Meagher,tin a lecture de-
livered by him, and which were transmitted to the
Times and 10 the admiralty. So much for the in

Russian DisnatrI,es

1t is a remarkable fact, and one which those
wretehed barbarans," the Russians. ouoh, -
have credit for that they have not yet become 50
civilized as to disregard the truth in their repor.s
OF military operations, and the results of battle.
and sieges' Whilst the reports of Pellssier of the
French losses suffered in action have been notori
ously ENTHUSIASTICALLY, those of the Russian com
manders have always been sustained by facts and
evidence. In some cases, Gortschakoff's accoun,
OF his own losses has been greater than that given
py the enemy. We hear, it is true, but little from
The Russian side, most of our information coming
through French and British channels, but what we
hear is to be re lied on
