LADIES AND NEWSPAPERS,

their admirers. 1t is astonishing how many
beautiful and fascinating women one will
meet in society WHO are entirely unable to
discuss that chiefest topic of interest-The
War. The reason is, they never, or scarce
ly ever, nead' The News. A similar igno-
rance in man would be iisgraccful. One
often meets ladies who evidently feel quite

be done in the way Of peace. The n. York
Tribune has no faith that he will effect any.
thing. Blair is not clothed with any power
from eur Government, but we may infer ia
