A Romantic ktOry,

A hero has turned up in Siberia. 1t
is Yiscount liit4 Gibbon, the gallant
Irish cayalary officer, who was supposed
to have fallen in the celebrated charge
of the Six Hundred at Balaklava 1t
was never ascertained whether the hero
was really killed or not When last
seen he was leaning faint and wounded
on his horse and now the story goes
that he was taken prisoner by the Rus.
SLAMS, and for some insult to an officer,
quietly transported to Siberia After
having been hopelessly embedded there
all these years, he is now said to be on
his way to Ireland and Britain to look
at the statue which has been appraised
in his honor at Wellcsly bridge, to shake
hands with Mr., Tennyson for writing
such nice verses about tho boys, and,
last Of all, TO claim the caste,

ATlast Hold Hingland is arrousing
herself, and manifesting an interest in
the eastern question. So long as Cons
stantinople was safe she could afford to
show indifference, but now that Plevna
is as good as doomed and Constantino-
pie in danger she talks of intervention.
Prevention was her true policy, but she
has lost that power. We cannot see
how she can now put force enough in
the field in time to prevent the Russians
from reaching their objective point
How weak and unworthy the ancient
glory of her kings is it. for her TO refer
the question of war or peace back to the
people, when the fate of India, and her
entire colonial ettlements tremble in
the scale.
