THE GREAT WAR.

The war In the East proceeds With
great vigor and activity on both sues.
Russia has swept with great rapidity.
and aroused the east coast OF the Black
Sea, storniinp Ardahan, and threaten
| Ing Kars and Erserelim. Her strategy
appeers TO be to move with such vigor
and pertinacity through the Asiat1c
provinces of Turkey as to draw rein
forcements to that point from her El-
/ repean defenses. Meantime her enor-
| nous force along the Danube is being
| marshalled at various points on that
river. and preparations are making for
their passage; but there IL an evident
confusion as to the real place where
the attempt will be made to cross. The
apparent delay in crossing is feature
Of the Russian plan. When once over
the Danube, the Russian superiority OF
force and material will be, we fear, dem
onstrated la 30 striking q manner az to
precipitate the intervention Of England
Then, or In few weeks thereafter, 1t
will be too late to save Constantinople
without involving Great Britain In q
mighty war.
Turkey is evidently sorely embar-
rassed how to check the progress OF the
Russians in the East, and defend the
threatened points Of passage OF the Dan
ube and man her fortified towns. Her
retaliatory strategy would appear to be
wise one. Her strong iron-elads are
moving on Odessa and the Crimea.
with the view OF Smelling the former
city and OF melting to rebellion the
large Mahommedan population OF the
Crimea. These are not very hopeful en-
terprises, and we imagine they have
been projected to draw of forces from
the main regular armies OF the Rus
SLAMS, the defenses of those places
having been assigned to the militia or
rregulars Of the Russians.
It is imagined that the Krupp guns Of
the Turkish ships will reach Olessa,
and re luce 1t either to ruin or capitula-
ton. This looks like pretty wild
hope and bluff, and to use q card
phrase, may be al everyday.
On the whole, the war, as 1t pro
crosses, promises TO be most destrue
tive and sang,iinary, and IL not arrested
by the Intervention OF the other powers,
a prolonged one.
It is a bad omen for Turkey that her
first attempts at constitutional and reps
resentatiye government have increased
her embarrassments and troubles.
There are political divisions and dissen.
sions which threaten constant changes
and develop weakening discords among
her political rulers, whereas Russia
moves as q solid phalanx, a unanimous
people aud government impregnable
against all internal dissessions and in
tligues,

What snobbery, when 1t is seriously
proposed to place the Prince Of Wales
mt the head of tho British army. in view
OF hostilities against Russia. Pig stick
ing and shooting at q wounded tiger,
from the back of an elephant, In India,
are the only warlike deeds ever per
formed by the Prince. For these he is
to be advanced over the veteran gen.
erals aud experienced chieftains who
have passed their whole manhood in
active service. Tho idea Of placing the
Prince at the head of the active forces
against Russia would be apoor copying
of Russia aud Prussia. where princes
have been assigned high commands
after long and severe schooling In
active war. The Grand Duke Nicholas
is almost veteran in the service,
having served through the whole Cri
mean campaign, and the Grown Prince
OF Prussia and his cousin Karl have
served with great distinction through
the two greatest wars OF modern times
the prusso. Austrian and the German
French war.

A somewhat notorious negro politician
named Laws, was killed In Jackson,
East Feliciana, on the 10th inst, by an
other negro, the paramount OF his wife.
This seems to have been n murder OF the
most ordinary and commonplace class,
such az is perpetrated daily In different
portions OF the Union, and which the
local authorities attend to. In this
State, however, there seems to be fever
ish anxiety to construe every infraction
OF tho law into an act possessing some
terrible political significance. II the
most useful and honored oitizen Of East
Feliciana had been sssassinated 1t
would not have provoked one.fourth the
clamor that has been created by the
killing of Laws. The Sheriff and courts
OF East Feliciana are entirely compe-
tent and willing to deal with this mat
ter: but because Laws happened to be q
Radical negro politician an idea pre-
wallis that an immense amount Of fierce
Indignation must be expended, and
the Governor Ia invoked to do some in
definite thing in the premises. The
Times yesterday evening was especially
wild and exclaimed:
We hope Gov. Nichols will lose no time in q
prompt investiga ion OF the killing OF Laws in
Easf feliciana u few dasa ago. This sort Of thing
ought to step. Let ns koow who Ia to blame
The reputation Of the state IL at stake in this
matter.
AZ for our part, we see no necessity
for Coy. Nichols to take any part In
the matter whatever, or to make an in
vestigation. The crime Of murder
has been committed In Jackson,
and certainly 1t Is to be re.
GREETED, but how "the reputation Of
the State Is at stake In this NATTER"
any more than the reputation Of any
other State Is ut stake. because OF any
ordinary murder that has been commit
ted within Its borders. we are unable
TO see. Two negroes in East Felicana
seem to have had a quarrel about wife
or q concubine, and one has murdered
the other. This Is the sum and sub
stance Of the whole matter. The local
authority will do their whole duty, and
we can see no necessity for all this out
cry or for any action on the part Of Gov.
Nichols.
When any class or race OF our popu-
lation shall attempt to persecute any
other class, or when any lawless move
ment, too powerful for the local authori-
ties to suppress, shall manifest itself,
Gov. Nichols will not be a laggard in
using all the authority aud influence Of
his Office to protect the outraged class,
or to maintain the law. But he cannot
be expected to undertake the admins
tration of justice In every parish and
neighborhood Of the State, and these
outcries, whenever a negro or Radi-
cal politician happens to be the victim
of a murder, are damaging to the repu-
tation Of our people and State.

A Remarkable Case of Catarrh Cured
by the use of Twelve Bottles.

We select the following case as showing how fright
full this disease may become, and convincing
proof of the value of SANFORD's RADICAL CURE as
reliable remedy for its cure, even in CAGES of he

deicacy, the gentleman declined to permit the use of
his name:-
Case No. I1--This is the case of man in the
prime of life who had contracted this disease
through bad cold six years ago. Favored by
scrotulous condition of the blood the disease sent its
acid poison into every part of the system so that
when he commenced the use of SANFORDs RADI-
CAL CURE it had become one of the worst cases ever
experienced by any living man. The discharge at
night was thick, puIrid and streaked with BLOOD and
excessive in quantity to discharge itself upon
the pillow during Sleep and collecting in quantities
in his thtoat. would, at the point Of stranguaton,
wake him. Several times each night he was obliged
to get up and partially clear his nostris and throat
before he could sleep. From the use of the first
bottle of the RADICAL CURE to the present, the
cure has been gradual, satisfactory, and permanent
He has used in all twelve bottles, and now ex-
perences no return of the discharge any Of its
disagreeable symptoms, besides enjoying unusually
good health otherwise.
