strstseiesl Mistakes.

The London Ne,cs says that the Allies by
concentrating 80 much the greatest portion
of their attention and operations on the
Crimes. and neglecting ether and important
parts Of the theatre Of the war, resemble .
party of policemen who would be SO intent
on driving gang of burglars out of the
front door, as to totally overlook their con-
federates who had entered BY the back way
and were continuing their pillage unmoles-
ted While the Allies have been saying so
much about the Danubian provinces, and
fighting so much in the Crimea, the Rus
sian policy has generally been successful,
as far As regards the movements in Asia
TheNeos says,-"the blaae ofthis egrsgious
blunder rests equally upon all the Allies;
the shame Of it presses with proportionate
weight on the English"
1t must be interesting to the large and
honest mass of the people of Great Britain,
to learn that after all their payments OF tax.
e. and other sacrifices incident to state OF
war, the persons intrusted with carrying on
the war have committed the most egregious
and most palpable mistakes. In war, judg-
ing by the consequences which follow, O
blunder is worse than crime, and the prob
abilities are that the English people will
have ample opportunities for determining
which is the most hurtfui.

AN ENGLISH OPfsrox.-At an inquiry,
held before Mr.. Wskely. Coroner in Lon
don, and Member of Parliament, into the
circumstances attending the death of per-
son who had suffered from an affection Of
the pulmonary organs, the disease to which
The late Emperor Of Russis's death was at.
ributed, the Coroner, in remarking upon
the case, observed
"In the case of the Emperor Nicholas, his
death was put down to paralysis of the
lungs and bronchitis, which, according to
the symptoms described. was known by u.
medical men to be impossible, and to have
been stated only to deceive the public mind.
The Official document describing the En-.
peror's death stated that, at the last, he took
leave Of bis family with firm voics-a pro.
ceeding physically impossible, If he was
suffering from the disease stated in the Ger.
fificate of death. The belief, therefore, on
the minds of the medical men of this coun.
try was that the Emperor was poisoned; and
that is my own opinion-not, the same
time, that be was poisoned by those about
him, but that he committed suicide"

PARTICULARS or The GREAT REArcR
CAsE.--This important case. as already

Judge Mclean delivering the opinion of the
Court. The case was argued last summer
at Cincinnati BY the Hon. Reverdy John.
son and E. F. Dickerson for McCormick
and E. M. Stanton and George Harding for
defendants. The decisionson all of the
points is in favor Of the defendants. The
Court held:
let. That Manny's Reapirg Machine does
not infringe on any of the patents Of Mr..
Mccormick.
I'd. That the leveler and reel-post USED
10 Manny's machine are not the same. in
form or principle, As the improvements pat
ented by Mccormick in lS45, and are no in.
Engagement
I'd. That several useful Improvement
invented and patented by John H. Nanny
are not covered BY McCormick's patent, but
are different in form and principle, and con.
sequently no Infringement
The injunction was refused and the bill
dismissed at cost of complainant. The
Court fully sustaiHs the validity Of McCor.
nick's patents, and pays 4 high compli-
msnt TO the patentee. An appeal has
been taken to the United States Supreme

REcIPRocITY.-Thers was an Interna.
tional Railroad Celebration At Niagara Falls
on the 10th inst. The cordial feelings be-
tween the Canadians and tie people of the
United States have greatly increased during
the preceding two or three years, and the
rumor of war suggests the idea that it would
be as difficult to force then into fight with
each other, as to cause hostilities between
the people of two or more States of the
Union. Such a contest would in fact have
al the characteristics of civil war, and
the more intimate the commercial relations
between US and the Canadians may become,
the more improbable will be the happening
of hostile collision.

liquor advocates

not make the editor of paper a'whiskey

was sent for and an effort ilade to amputate
