The pipinrv time‘ of peace would iipp_.:;_ii-_ to have arrived in Europe.

One of the most ndiiiirnblc traits of British cli.tru.ctei' elicited by this war is the cousiderotioii, the kiiidn-ass and tenderness dis- played totvnrds their Russian prisoners, sound or wounded, and especially those brought to England. in which proceeding, as it iiiotter of course, the gentler sex covered tlir-iusclves with glory. Exactly alike, we now ﬁnd, has been the treatment of the British, and nearly alike, that of the ’l‘ui-kisli prisoners of the llussiaus. Some four liuudrcd of Engglisli and ’I‘url<s, were cxchniigcd at Odessa on the 21st Oct. Inst, who one and all bore testiinrmy to the negative and positive kiiidiiess of their captors, and to the coiiiinisorntioii, C0ll‘1ltI'3l':l.tI0n, und even cuc- rosity they experienced front the inbubititnts of the country through which they were tnnrclied, even boypixd Moscow.

This is no rli:ipsody—no visionary suinniory of an ndvocnte for war, though it may indicate a prayer that the nations in hoiid:i;;euiid adver- sity be befrienllcd and delivered. Every item I have just I'et!1lDItlli:Ll.t‘d must be ri-gnrdcd and redrcsscd cro lluropo can agaiii rel.-ipse into peace.

kolflins been superseded by the courtesy of the intrepid, uiitlincliing Gortsclinkolf. and a just return for British humanity is made.

These facts indicating an approach to sympa- thy on the port of the contending nations and their warriors are calculated to suggest, more‘ strongly than any “ private, ” or “public,” or “ s cial, ” or even “ ollicial ” correspond- ence could do, the possibility tli.it with this present year, will terminate this cruel, but, on the port of the Allies, most just and necessary war. When men with arms in their hands begin to seek and seize upon occasions for the demon- stration of respect and esteem for each other, reconciliation ought not to be for oil’. It might hardly surprise you, therefore, (while you look with amazement and bewilderinciit upon the tens of thousands of tons of“ shot and shell, ” and the hiindreds of thousands of niuskets, xe- volvers, rilles, sal-res and bayonets-—yen, and of that new implement of slauglitcr the Salire Bayonetle, leaving France and England daily and nightly for tho Enst,) if some fine mornin the Paris Monilcur or the London Gazette an- nounce u. " suspension of hostilities. ”

Should this dream of peace, for as yet it is only such, prove a reality, (pt-eluded by a. sus-

ension of hostilities,) we shall have France,

ugland, Turkey. Sardinia, end Russia, swear- ing, once more, by the ashes of their mother, that there " shit I be elcrnal peace and amity between France, Enwlrind, 'l‘iirkcy, Sardinia and Russia.” and the cordoiis of the Legion ofllonor. of the Garter, and of the Both, of Saints. and the decoration of the Mctirlji, and the Grand Crosses of Sta. Alexander Nevsky and Sr. \Vlad- iuiir, and other Saints “of some dozen conso- nants apiece,” will blaze upon the brousts of the Generals of the now belligerent powers, and reconciliation and emlirncings will replace death-giving personal encounters, and confirm the justice of the adage.

1 mean not to convey that in their aspirations after Peace, the Government and the pee Ie of France and England contemplate on unsaite one. From a. hasty, inconsiderate. insecure peace, may Ileaven defend Euro[.e—and what other is possible at this identical moment?

" A truce is made? ” so the Heralds in their tuburds on the Place de ’HolcI de Ville and on the Boulevards, and on the Plate de la Bastille, and on the Pan! Nat/‘of Paris. and at the Man- siou llonso, and at Clinring Cross, London,- “ Par Vobtscuni?"

“ A truce is iiindc," the auditors excluiin and

epnrt. “ A truce is made. ” " El apres I " as the French say. When “the half hour of Rabeluis ”—the setting of the corlc

gives the following account of . tires on the prairie :—

*‘ Every n3glit for three weeks post, ex- cept in'iiiieili:itcly after at ruin, the horizon in every direction has been all in ti glow from the burning grass on the prairies. So brilliant have been these displays of fire- works, as not iinfrcquently to reflect quite a strong light upon our streets, enabling the pedestrian to make his way safely and pleasantly without other lgiht. even in very cloudy nights with noinoon. These ﬁres may be seen, in it cloudy night, a distance of twenty and‘ thirty tnilcs across the prairies, lighting up the heavens, half way to the zenith, with the most gorgeous colors, and as changeable as those of the kaleidoscope. The smoky weather, which we call Indian summer, is doubtless the result of those fires, and if there is any truth in the Espy theory, the rains which have followed each spell of every smoky weather, may also be attributable to the extensive prairie burn-

SIIAIIPIINING Enono 'I'ooi.s.— The Washing- ton Nationul Intelligcnctr translates the follow- ing frorii it Gerimin scientific journal :—“ It ha! long been known that the simplest method o slitirpeninn a razor is to put it for half an hour in water to which has been added one-twentieth of its weight ol inuriatie or sulphuric at-id,tlien lightly wipe it oil‘, and after a few hours set it on ahonc. Phuacid here supplies the place of: tvhet-stone by csrroiling the whole surface uni- formly. so that nothing further but a smooth polish is necessary. The process never injures good blades, while badly hririlcned ones are frcqnciitly iinprovt-il by it, although the cause of such improvement reuiains unexplained. . Of late this process has been applied to many other cut- llII:1IlI2plf'II'Il'lllO.

This saves the consumption of tiinonnd labour in whetting, which, moreover, speedily we-.:irs out the lilailes. The modo of sliarpeiiing here indicated would be found espe- cially advantageous for siokles and scjtlies.”
