"wE ARE AT WAR."-A few evenings ago a
lady, "well to do in the world, )" meeting several
of her friends in one of our city markets, heard
them complaining Of the high prices and was ac-
costed by them with the remark that she was
happily situated in being able to pay such prices
without feeling the outlay" Her answer struck
us as exhibiting vein of thought which is rare.
She replied O. If you will examine my basket
you will observe buy nothing but what abso-
lutely need, and no larger quantity than is nee
essary. All my expenses regulated upon the
same principle. cannot understand how peo-
pie can expect or desire to live as luxuriously

at peace. We are at war. believe it to be

A QUEER SroRY.-An Eastern paper says that
q woman, living in Mercer, Canada West has for
four years past been afflicted with singular
difficulty in her stomach. Her complaint has
until within short time past baffled the skill of
physicians. The complaint commenced about
four years since with tickling and uneasy SEN
sation about the pit of her stomach This same
sensation has continued to increase in severity
from that time. few months since, it became
the incontrovertble opinion of the most skilful
physicians, that the increasing difficulty has
been the growth of a snake in the stomach. 1t
has grown SO large now, that it dstend, the
stomach so as to produce bunch upon the out
side as large as quart bowl. Upon pressing
this bunch with the hand, the reptile recoils and
produces great distress. When fish or meat is
being cooked in the room, if the snake is not
satisfied with food it rises up to the throat, pro-
ducing strangulation. Physicians see no way in
which it can be removed without certain death
10 the woman. Mrs. Ivirs is about thirty-ive
years Of age, and is, of course, feeble in health
now, but is around the house.

"A LAMENT FOR Losr CHAnAcrER.--The Lon-
don Quarterly Reuiew for April, contains heavy
indictment of their foreign policy of the Palmer
ston ministry. The writer charges that in con-
sequence Of this policy Englishmen have fallen
into contempt on the continent. @ He thus sadly
records truth which has been rendered but too
evident recently in Europe If the great war
had done bat little for our popularity it had at
least left deeply craven on the minds of conti-
nental populations that we could fight. But all
this is changed now. eAll the respect for our
National character, which was founded upon
belief in its natural bulldog character
istics, has disappeared. Our courage is not only
disbeleved, but it IS ridiculed an imposture
that has been found out. English brayado and
English cowardice are the common staple of
popular caricatures- The Engpshman furnishes
70 the continental wits the same sort of stand
Ing butt that the Yankee presented to us some
three years ago. The estimate of English char
acter that it is felt in every circle and class of
society abroad, and expressed without reserve
BY the press, may be summed up in one phrase,
