THE WAR AND RUssA.--Who has gained
most by the Italian war, thus far The French
have driven the Austrians back, but they have
beaten them only at very heavy loss Of men,
and those, be it remembered, of the very
flower of their army. The elite of the Aus
trian troops, it is understood, are the reserve,
which has not yet taken part. Mr.. Raymond,
in his letters TO the New York Times, shows
that the Zouaves are terribly cut up and dec
mated. To us it looks as if Russia was the
only power that had been benefited, thus far.
She is aveDging herself on Austria for her in
action during the Crimean war, by holding
Germany in check. She is furnishing France,
by Turing Napoleon into war which has al
ready cost him many thousands of his best
soldiers. She is humiliating England, by APP
pearing to awe her into neutrality. Herself
exhausted by the CrinIean war, she is sue
eessfully striving to weaken every other pow
er, in order that hereafter, when she has re-
cruited her own resources, she may step in, as
autocrat and mediator, to dictate the terms OF
arrangement.

A SINGULAR AFFAIR.

The Albany. New York, Standard, of July
I4th, relates the following singular story
Some fifteen years ago man, named George
Bristol, left this city for the shores of the
Pacific. At the time he left he had wife
and one child, the latter only three years old.
They resided in the town of Westerlo. AT
that time his wife and child were living with
her father. Some two years after the father
and mother of the woman died, thefr estate
was disposed of to satisfy mortgages, and Mrs.
Bristol and her child were thrown upon the
cold charities of the world for living. She
was very feeble in health, and OF course was
unable to take care of herself
The mother came to Albaay, where they
lived for some five years, at the expiration OF
which time the mother died and the girl was
left alone in the world, to do as best she could.
Being now about ten years old, and smart,
active, good looking girf, she soon found
situation in a respectable family. Here she
remained till she was fifteen years old, when
she bound herself out to a milliner. She
served three years at that business, and had
become mistress Of her profession. Now, the
strangest portion of this revelation is to be
told. The girl is over eighteen years old, !,
and perfect model of her sex.
During this long interval it must be re mcm-
bered that the girl lost all trace of her father.
Her beauty attracted the attention and admi-
ration ofia sprcuc looking gentleman who met
her on Broadway. He was man of about
forty years, but his appearance did not indi-
cate that he had ever seen over twenty-five
Summers. An acquaintance was made be-
tween her and the gentleman above alluded to-,
and a final engagement entered into for mar
riage. The day was set, and all the necessary
arrangements made for the ceremony.
On the appointed day the pair, accompa-
MED 10y their respective friends, met tor the
purpose of having the plighted ones Joined in
wedlock. Just before the minister common
ced the marriage rites, an old couple entered.
They were formerly neighbors of the Bristol
family, and had watched the girl grow up
from infancy, and were now anxious 10 see
the choice she had made in partner for life.
Imagine the surprise of all about when the
old couple above referred to recognized in
the ssman of the girls heart'' her own legiti-
mate father.
For 4 moment all was amazemcnt and sad
ness, but on the state OF things being fully re-
allied, the scene turned to one of joy. An
absent father had recovered a lost daughter
and the assembled throng of friends were
highly delighted that the affair had resulted as
it did. The love that had before burned so
brightly between the twain, had now become
a fame as inextinguislfable as the fires of We
suyius. A queer world, this.

few weeks since, Ii. 3. Swoope, Esq, de-
livcred his lecture on the ssLiterature of the
Bible,' in Huntingdon, Pa. 1t appears that a
Mr.. McDivitt of that place claims that about
one third of it was taken from speech for
merly delivered by him before a Teachers In
stitute. Mr.. Swoope happening to he in Hun
tingdon few days after, called upon Mr.. NJ
with friend, and asked him to compare the
two manuscripts and point out wherein the
plagiarism consisted. After doing SO, Mr.
McDivitt, finding, Gas seems by the correspon-
dence,) the resemblance to be only in the re-
cital by both of the prominent events in Sa-
cred History, furnished the following letter.
Ii. B. SwoopE, ESQ Dear Sir: On a care
ful examination of that portion of your Lee
ture on the Literature of the Bible,' alleged
to have been taken from lecture on History
delivered by me some time since, am free to
say that though the portion alluded to is very
similar as regards the order, style, and Ian
guage, yet have no hesitation in exempting
you from all charges of plagiarism, the resem-
blance being nothing more than what might
easily take place at any time under similar
circumstances. | am truly sorry that the SUBJ
ject has been referred to, and hope this expla-
nation may prove entirely satisfactory to all
parties. In haste, yours truly,

By the arrival of the steamship Wescr VIC
arc put in possession of two days later lntelli-
gence from Europe. The news from the seat
of war is of moment, mainly as confirmatory
of what was previously known or generally
inferred. The Austrians had fallen back to
Verona, and Garibaldi was endeavoring to get
the command of Lake Garda, in order to iso-
late that fortress from the Tyrol. The news
from Germany is highly important. Field
Marshal Prince Windiscbgratz was expected
at Berlin from Vienna on special mission.
The Federal Diet had unanimously acceded to
proposition from Prussia to place corps Of
observation on the Upper Rhine, and ex-
traordinary Diet had been convoked for the
18th inst. to raise money for war purposes.
This does not look much like s:localizing''
the war. Kossuth had been received with
great enthusiasm in Italy.

THE StcKLEs TRAGI-CoaEDY.-The New
York papers announce that Sickles and his
wife have harmonized their little difficulty-if
difficulty ever existed between Mem-and
are again enjoying each others refined and cl
evating society. This does not take US by
surprise. We anticipated such a result. Per-
haps the christian influence of the clergyman
who manifested such deep interest in Dam
iel's welfare during his Incarceration in Wash
ington and his trial for the murder of Philip
Barton Key, has kindled in his breast the spirit
Of charity or the music Of the young jury
mans violin may have reawakened those ear
lier sentiments of affection which had been
temporarily paralyzed by the supposed s'ds-
honoring of his bed.'' The only regret that
the public will have is that his vengeance
proved so fatal, and that Mr.. Key is not alive
to witness Mr.. Sickles' restoration to sanity,
and his full condonation of his wife's indis-
cretions. She confessed all, and her husband,
it appears, has forgiven all.
