MAGNIFICENT PREacNT.-A lettsr from
soldier belonging to tho Crenshav Battery,
(now encamped in Oulpeper county,) states
that q few days since the members of that
company were each the recipient of n magnii-
cent pair of English army boots, which were
purchased in England and sent over to the
members of the company by their Captain,
WILLIAM G. CRENsuAw, who is at present in
England, attending to q ,vernment business
The boots ere high tops, BACKED and dressed,
and would bring as present market pricea
about $3.50 per pair The recipients. howcv-
er, (many of whom were much in need Of
good boots would not be willing to nart with
them for twice that sum. When such in
stance, of patriotic devotion t., the cause and
such evidence of thought and care are mani
tested by Captain for the members af his
command, or by other individuals, como to
our knowledge, we cannot forbear speaking Of
them with admiration. Though, in so doing,
we shall doubtless in"ur the displcasure of
the hearted Captain, whose munif-
cence on this occasion is SO worthy of emula-
ton.

there are oOwardly generals, immoral priests

Emperor Alexander OF Russia has just sig-

bearing upon the progress OF Russia, can be
only compared with the Ordinance OF Emancipa-
ton. md which will secure 10 Alexander III
Russian history q place by the side OF Peter
the Great as among the most illus,rious rulers
Of the nation. lie has cony eked the Diet OF the
Grand Duchy Of Finland, and opened il per-
sonally with n speech, which expresses h's con
Gdence in a liberal form Of government, and
intimates his design 80 develop liberal instltu-
tons first in Finland, and later in other parts OF
the Empire. The conyocatlon Of Representa-
tive Assembly in a Russian Crown land, and
still more tho tenor Of the Imperial address,
may DO regarded "a proofs that the era Of abso-
lutism is on the wane in Russia, and that the
largest Christian Empire Of the world may ere
long Do converted into a constitutional mon

The Emperor states that his attention has Ions,

laid before the Diet. The financial condition o
the Grand Duchy is said to be satisfactory Tit
revenues have always been sufficient for meet

increase of the indirect taxes has enabled thu

A CHANGE IN THE NAP OF
EUROPE.

Elections have recently taken place in the
Ionian Islands in reference to the proposed an-
nera,ion OF the islands TO Greece. IA yet, We
only know the results Of the vote in Corfu and
Paxos, both Of which islands have pronounced,
through the representatives elected, III favor Of
the annexation. No doubt. however, is enter
tanned that the other islands-Cephalonia,
IZanic, Santa Maura, Ithaca, and Ceriso-haye
also pronounced in favor of the union. On the
Ist Of October, the Ionian Parliament was
opened At Corfu, and "a it was to eonsum-
mate the union with Greece, the greatest en-.
thusiasm prevailed among its members.
England having declared her readiness 70
abandon her protcctoratc over the islands, sud
the other Powers having made no objection TO
this arrangement, the vote of the lonlan Parla'
ment removes the only obstacle which could hun
dcr,he reunion. Formany centuries these Island
ers have been politically separated from theu
kinsmen in Greece Proper. In the twelfth CEN
,ury they were occupied by the Kings of Sicily,
md in The fourteenth they fell under the juris-
dietion Of tho Venetians, and so remained III
The fall Of Venice threw them into the hands Of
the French by the Treaty of Campo Formio.
Russia and Turkey conformity expelled the
French. and in 800 erected them into Sep
tinsular Republic, which, under the protection
Of Turkey, failed as al experiment OF self-goyern-
ment. By secret article in the Treaty OF Tilsit
ls07 they were given to the French, but beng
taken by tie British, they were secured to that
Power by the Treaty u Paris, Nov. 9, lSl5.
Since the establishment Of the Kingdom OF
Greece, the islanders have always expressed d
desire to DO annexed to the Kingdom, and SOW
cral times tho Legislative Assembly OF Corfu
has unanimously passed resolutions TO that Of
feet. But the British Government altogether
ignored these steps until 1862, when, during the
negotiations about the selection Of new King
| for Greece she declared her readiness to comply
with the wishes Of the Ionans.
| Thus another change has been effected IN the
arbitrary and iniquitous disposition which the
European Powers in 1915 made OF the map o
Europe. and another concession made to ths
Fundamental principles Of European democracy
which demands reconstruction of the map o
Europe on tho basis of the distinct European
lnationalities.
