w A Constantinople letter gives, as from

W A Constantinople letter gives, as from
a Russian prisoner, the following explanation
of the origin of the present war:
"The Turks massacred the Russian Bishop
and several Russian priests at Jerusalem.-
God, in his wrath, sent squadron of angels
to carry away the tomb of Christ, which re-
mains at this moment suspended in the hea-
vens, and he commissioned the Gar to avenge
the Pagan sacrilege. When the Emperor
Nicholas shall enter Jerusalem a conqueror,
as by the aid of Heaven, he certainly will do,
Christ's tomb will be restored to its, place.
The phalanx Of angels will line the road along
which the conquering Russian army will pass,
and will present arms to them. Then the
Gar will be master of the whole world, which
will renounce its errors, and become convert
ed to the orthodox faith" This story is in-
plcitly believed by the Russian serfs.

POWER OF LOCOMOTIVES IN OVER COMING
STEEP GRADEs-ln completing the railways
between Turin and Genoa, some important
experiments have been made as to the ascent
that could be accomplished by peculiarly con-
structed locomotives. The following result
is given by correspondent of the London
Times:
"The experiments already made on the in
cline near Gleni, where there is an ascent of
in % -, have been most satisfactory
With two locomotives attached together,
drawing train of six carriages loaded with
sand, which weighed altogether about Sc
tons, and earh locomotive weighing about %
tons, including the coal and water, speed Of
l9 English miles an hour was easily accom-
pIshed, although, from the length of the tun-
nels and the dampness of the atmosphere,
the rails were excessively greasy and slippery.
The engines used were built by Messrs.
Stephenson, after plans sent by the Pied
montese engineers, and as this is at present
the steepest ascent on any railroad in Europe,
the result reflects in the highest praise on all
concerned, particularly considering the signal
failure of the former engine Ia BAVARIA for
which the Austrian Government paid so
highly for crossing the Simmering, and which
can hardly force its own weight Of 60 tons up
an incline of in 40"

81 DID AS THE REST DID.-This tame,
yielding spirit--this doing "as the rest did,
has ruined thousands.
A young man is invited by vicious compa-
ny to visit the theatre or the gambling room,
or other haunts of licentiousness. He be-
comes dissipated, spends his time, loses his
credit, squanders his property, and at last
sinks into an untimely grave. What ru-
ined him? Simply "doing what the rest
did"
A father has family of sons. He is veal
thy. Other children in the same situation Of
life do so and so, are indulged in this thing
and that. He INDUCES his own in the same
way. They grow up idlers, trihers and fops.
The father wonders why his children do not
succeed better. He has spent so much mon
ey on their education, has given them great
advantages; but alas they are only source
of vexation and trouble. Poor man he is
just paying the penalty of "doing as the rest
did,"
The poor mother strives hard to bring up
her daughters genteelly. They learn what
others do--to paint, to sing, to play, to dance,
and several useful matters. In time they
marry; their husbands are unable to support
their extravaganza, and they are soon reduced
to poverty and wretchedness. Thegood wo-
man is astonished. "Truly," says she 81 did
as the rest did"
The sinner, following the example of 9th
ers, puts off repentance; and neglects to pre-
pare for death. He passes along through
life, till, unawares death strikes the fatal
blow He has no time left now to prepare.
And he goes down to destruction because
he was so foolish as to "do as the rest
did

THE ARMY BEFORE sEBAsTopoL.

The late accounts represent the condition
of the army as improving. That's one side
of the story. Now, let us look at the other,
and see how the two agree. It is from the
pen of an English soldier, and addressed to
the London Morning Herald.
The storming of Sebastopol is, even If
possible, practically useless, for under the
guns of the Northern forts we could not
hold it, and the loss would be enormous.-
True, we destroy feet which cannot show
upon the Black Sea, and which strict block
ade and investment during the next summer
must ultimately place securely in our hands,
Embark we cannot, for we would lose the
enormous number of guns now accumulated
in the trenches, not one of which We could
remove; and in order to attempt an emoarka-
ton we must beat the relieving army in the
field. Now, to take the field, We (the Eng.
lish) could not attempt, for the whole Of our
cavalry and artillery horses, 1000 in number,
are starred Out of the II or IL cavalry re.
giments nominally at Sebastopol, not one
could mount squadron of 80 men; and
baggage cattle we have none. Taking the
field, therefore, even if the season permitted
it, is out of the question. We have then be-
fore us bivouac, upon the bare promonitory
of Cherson, until the spring is far advanced.
Now, it is with heartfelt grief that we feel
ourselves compelled to say, that we speak
the opinion of the best and most experienced
soldiers in England when we say "the army
is practically lost We do not mean
to say that we may not still save the lives of
some 10000 or 10000 infantry, but as an ar
my the force on the heights above Sebasto-
pol will nerer take the field again.
