a FAIR BRITISH ESTIMATE VoR ONCE OF THE
AMERICAN QUEsrIoN.-The Nor;herners are
entitled to more sympathy than they have
received from the most Influential rart of the
english press They are fighting for an oh
ject Of real importance. If they were to fight
at all, now is their time, and they have re-
ccived for many years past a series Of provo
cations of the most eXasperating kind. To
advise brave and high spirited men to per-
nit, or not TO resist the forcible, wrongful
destruction of Institutions 10 which they
rightly attach the highest value. on the
ground that it is extremely difficult to main
tain them. is what men who recognize the
claims of courage and spirit ought to he 10th
10 do That the North has right on its side,
there can be no doubt. That it has sustained
g'ievous wrongs and insults. is equally plain.
Surely it is rather question for them than
for us, whether there is a reasonable prospect
of redressng those wrongs by the force Of
arms. A nation, like an individual may
easily overrate difficulties 1t is by no means
clear that the tone of the South will be go
naughty as it is at present, or that their de-
termination to resist, will be unanimous afte
they have felt the weight of the Northern
army. There is no doubt on each side a
superahundance of the very fereest kind of
talk. and of protestations of unAinching con-
s'ancy hut it by no means follows that it
would survive the horrors of battles and
siegea, and the awful prospect of servile in-
surrection. At any rate, no one can know
whether it will or not till they try. Ireland
would have been independent long ago if we
had taken the advice of disinttrested foreign
ers about it. In 1851, many writers on the
Continent and in the United States. supposed
that they h proved in the most convincing
manner that we never could reconquer India
Nothing that is worth keeping in this world
can be kept without an effort; and it is pre-
mature to say, that fighting is of no use till
it has been fairly tried We have fairright
to dwell on all the difficulties and horrors of
the tack; hut in common justice it must be
admitted that the North are fighting in a
good cause and for high stake Cornhil

| A CHINESE JuGGLER.-As soon as he had
cleared circle with the old String and
balls" he spread the contents of his wallet on
the ground, and stripped himself to the waist.
He was poor thin fellow, who seemed to
suffer from the effects of the tricks he per-
formed. He first of all spoke for about five
minutes, with all the volublity Of Charles
Mathews, evidently saying something witty,
for the people around laughed heartily. In
the middle of his harangue, he was seized
Sith a fit Of choking, and after an effort to
get something out of his throat drew foi tn a
little slip of bamboo, like Lisbon tooth-pick
then another, and another; then he sneezed,
and ont they came from his nostrils, then
from his eyes until he completed the number
Of 81, hy making one appear halfway out of
each orihce at the same time, and then threw
the lot on the ground for any one to examine.
He then took three glass balls, about an inch
in diameter, and placing them singly between
his lips. sucked them into his mouth, and
swallowed the first, a red one, then q blue,
and last of ALL white one; there was lit
| tie interludc Of tooth picks and talking. after
| which he walked gravely around the ring,
stopping four times. Each time he gave
himself shake aud jump. when the balls
were distinctly heard to jingle inside him.
On completing his rounds, after several ef-
forts he spat the balls out ON the ground in
the same order he had swallowed them-the
red FIRST the white last. He then took two
more balls, one of polished steel, about the
size of hens egg, and other of glass. the
same size These he at first let fall on the
ground, to show they were solid; then,
placing them between his lips, swallowed
them. like the smaller ones. hut with difficult
ty. the ball swelling his throat as it went
down. Here more tooth picks and talking.
while he prepared two swords, about an inch
wide and 90 long, very like polished hoop
iron, clashed them together to show they
were real and passed both down his throat
at once, until they struck the balls with and
audible click. Withdrawing these, he placed
his hand behind him, after several apparently
painful trials, each ball rose in the throat,
and fell from his mouth to the ground with
heavy thump. Other tricks he did, only
suited to a Chinese audience - Pekin Letter.
