largely of old men and boys. as the Confeder-

he says, very little is received At the rebel
Capital. Immediately alter the occupation Of
the Weldon road by Grant. the rations Of

WHOLESOME LESSON.

The London Times, in one Of its periodical
lectures to the Canadian provinces, advises
that if they expect help from Great Britain,
in case of sn invasion by the United States,
''rhat they have lrared upon broken reed"
and makes The following striking confession:
Let Canada consider the lOrces with which
England took the field in the Crimea, and let
her, on the other hand, reflect on the forces
with which for succession of years Ameri-
can Generals have been carrying on a civil
war. All, and more than all, that England
can spare, would not suffice Tor the wear and
