Lord Palmerston though nearly seveny-one years old
keenly sagacous in reading public opinion he

allies have greatly stimulated the feeling among the
English people, and the British premier accordingly shows
strong signs of being similarly affected The stubborn
defence of the Russians had produced great indignation
among the English people, and the muchlauded successes
of the allies within the last few weeks to have organized
their feelings into widespread determination that the
war shall be to the end every hazard and

powers remain in the attitude of jealous vigilance

The real value of this to the English people, how

hopes it has awakened Englands nobility in battle ar

have gained by the contrast which the feebeness of their

WHAT AN EYE DEAR.-Among the
recent inventions Of science is false
movable eye, warrented to open and
shut, squirt, stare, wink, cry, and per.
form all the other operations Of which
the human eye is capable. Unfortu.
nately, the inventor cannot promise
that the false eye shall see, though we
are well aware that looking at matters
with false eye is very common prac-
tice. Ingenuity certainly goes a very
great wsy in these days in supplying
by means Of objects of arts, The de-
ficiencies of nature. We cannot enter
an omnibus without being told, though
the medium Of a CONSPICUOUS placard,
that there is No more Grey Hair :"
though we cannot help taking it into
our head that there is, for our locks
give the white lie to the fatteriug an.
nouncement. 1t is true we have not
accepted the invitation to 20 to some
Emporium, and have our poor old
head placed in the dyer's hands; for
though we would do almost anything
to render ourselves agreeable in the
eyes Of the world. we are not yet pre-.
pared to dye for it. Besides, we have
seen specimens on some of our female
friends. and we have great objection
to the prismatic head of hair, which is
the usual consequence of an attempt
to turn grey into black, or a decided
carrot into delicious chestnut.
We should like to see the expert
ment tried of how far the false might
be made to supersede the true, in that
decided matter of form, the human
body. Legs and arms may be, and
are, replaced by artificial means teeth
hair, and eyes are to be brought singly
or by the set and who knows how
many people we should find with false
tongues, false hearts, and wooden
heads, if we had but an opportunity of
detecting them ? We must confess
that in the notion Of false eyes We see
something very hard to realise.
