THE STATE OF THE WAR AT THE END OF THE SECOND YEAR.

Whoever may wish to understand, the- roughly, how vast is the advance that has been made by the Allies in the war, has only to cast his mind's eye back to this time a year ago, and contrast the things that now are with the things that then were. \’Ve had then just received accounts of the battle of Ihkernian, and the general impres- sion was, that as the Russians should come up, there would be made an unceasing se- ries of attacks on the Allied camps, the re- sult of which would he to drive the invaders into the soa.——The Russians had passed so suddenly from the defensive to the offensive, that men believed, that their change of modes was due only to their change of numbers, antl_that their supplies of soldiers were in- exliaustible. Ifthey had failed at Balacla- va and Inkerinan, after having been rein- forced by the corps of Liprandi and Danna- borg, they would attack again as soon as other reiiiforceineiits, already on their way, should reach the theatre of war. Such was the prevailing opinion. Men did not dispute the bravery of the Allies, or deny that they had the means of contending with Russia, on equal terms, on a fair ﬁeld; but the advaiitages, they contended, were all on the side of the Czar, who could pour such vast armies into the Crimea, as would be able to push the Allies, as it were from its soil, by their mere weight. England_, it was said, had but few more soldiers to send, and it would take a great while to get them into line. France had men enough, but before they could be sent, the war in the old Helenic peninstila would be over. What made'this view of the subject all the more probable was the destitute condition of the allied armies. It had become clear that the English, at least, were badly serv- ed, and that starvation was to be added to the ills under which they were suffering. Hunger and cold were again about to do the work of‘ the Muscovite. Sickness, ever the attendant on armies thus situated, would

soon appear, and sweep away thousands ot'

‘those who had thus audaciously stepped upon the holy (and stolen) soil ofthe great empire. Soon came intelligence of the great storm of Novembe I~tth, by which the English suffered so dreadfully, loosing extensive supplies of the very articles 0 which they stood most in need. All things seemed to be making against the Allies, and their well-wishers in this country had as hard a battle to ﬁght, almost, its they them- selves had so dearly gained at Inkermann. Yet we never despaired of the result-VVe knew that errors had been committed, and

that the English Ministry were unﬁt to car- -

rv on a mighty contest with Russia; but we felt contideot that the soldiers near Svbiisto- $ul, and the people of France and England, were equal to the tremendous struggle in which they engaged in the interest of civili- zation; and that if ministers were weak, they would be changed, and the army rein- forced, until it should be found adequate to the demands oftiic conflict. Time and the event have justified the conﬁdence of the American supporters of the right cause. The English soon get rid of an incapable ministry. Reinforcements were sent to the Crimea in great numbers, and were accom- panied or followed by immense material. As soon as the winter months were over, operations were resumed on a comprehen- sive scale. The Russians were closely pressed. Their sources of supply were partially seized. Their outer works were taken, one by one, until the “crowning glory" ofthe 8th of Si-ptember was achiev- ed, and the City of ./Iugusto, which Russia had been seventy odd years in building, and where she had been gathering together the means of conquering and holding the East, fell into the hands ofthe Allies.

It may feed the hopes of the Russian syinpatliizr-rs to tell them of the Crimea tint having been conquered, oftlieir friends the barbarians still holding the “ N0I'llI Gide." ofthe strong positions occupied by Gert- schakolfand his lieutenants, and of the re- pulse of the 18th of June:—but it is all useless clnmoiir. The Russians are bea- ten, and they and the whole world feel and know that they are beaten. ‘The prize was Sebastopol, with the Russian fleet and

sought on the one side, and stubbornly de- fended on the other, Hundreds ofmillions Of People gazed upon the awful conflict and watched its fluctuations. Tens of mil- lions of them, had Sebastopol repelled its assailants, would have been convinced, that Russia was invincible, and would have be- come her subjects in a few years. Sebas- topol was but the g, so to speak, of the Czars. Had they held on to it, all the reasonings in the world would not have been able to convin the people of the East that they must become subjects of that race which had done so much to esta- blish an overwhelming military power. But, in the same proportion that victory would have been beneficial to Russia’s interests, must defeat prove injurious to them. She has received a terrible blow. She is no longer invincible in the eyes of the people of the orient. Vast armies have come from the West— vast fleets have sprung, as it were, out of the sea-to strike down her power. She has lost it couple of hundred thousand men in defend- ing Sebastopol, and the defence has proved afailure. That gigantic ﬂeet which she had assembled on the Black Sea—a fleet larger than the -whole navy ol the United States—-has perished. It will no longer disturb the peace of the world Seven months ago,peace negotiations were broken off, because Russia would not consent to lessen her Euxine ﬂeet. Now it has no existence. There is a story, that the Ru- sians mean to raise their sunken ships when the Allies shall return home. The idea is laughable. As well might the Spani- ards talk ofraising the hulks of the Armada.

In Asia, the Russians have accomplished nothing, and have been defeated in all their . attempts to establish themselves in Turkish territory. In Kamschatka, they have run away, after destroying all their works, which is all that could have been done by their enemies, to say nothin of the chan- ces of the latter being ba ed by a brave resistance. All that can be said in favour of Russia, at the close of the second cam- paign, is, that she was not made to suffer very severely in the Baltic countries, for which she may thank the stupidity ofthe English government, or its forbearance, we know not which. Two years of the war, counting from the declaration made by Turkey, have passed away, and who can name a single victory won in that time by the Russians? They butchered an inferior force at Sinope, and they repulsed the Al- lies, when they ﬁrst assailed the Malakoff and the Redan. These and the repulse of a few seamen and mariners at Petropau- lovski, form the sum total of Russian victo- ries, except the route of a Turkish rabble in Asia. What deeds to be accomplished in two years by the great military empire, that threatened to subdue the world which it held in terror!

WAa.~iiNo FROM MoN'ri~‘.sQniI:U. The following warning against attempting the conquest of the Turkish Empire was writ- ten by Montesquieu, in his “Grandeur et Decadence des Remains,” in 1721. four years before the death of Peter the Great, with whomthe policy of conquer- ing Turkey is supposed to have origina- ted. “The empire of the Turks has at present reached the same degree of weak- ness which the Greek empire hail attain- ed in former times. But, lltlIWllllSItlIItI- ing, it will endure a long time; for ifnii prince whatsover should, in the pursuit of conquest imperil it, the three CtllllllIt,‘I'- ccinl powers of Europe understand their ‘own interests too well not at once to under take its defence.” The three commer- ial nations of the early part of the eight- eenth century were, of course; Eiigliiiiil, France, and Holland. the last of which has not only lost its relative position as a nation, btit is ruled by a ncpliew of Ni- cholas, and ﬁrst _cousin of Alexander. —-lixiiiiiiner. .

Sir,—I feel a pleasure and a ride in bearing witness to the wonderful beneﬁt I iave derived by the use of your inestimablo Ointment and Pills. eight years I suffered nnceasingly from attacks of erysipelns; largo purplo blotches came all over my body; in addition to the unpleasant feeling ofitching and burning, which aﬁ'ectsd me both night and day. rendering life a misery to me, as well as to all nrsuud,-so sevcra was the attack. I used several reputed remedies without deriving the least cessation to my misery. At last, I determined to try your Ointment and Pills; after taking them for a few weeks, a visible improvement took place, and I fee considerably better;—-in three months, by continuing with your medicines, I was completely cnrod,and now enjoy the best of health.

To Professor llollovray.

Sir.—\Iy sister, in June Toiukinson, suffered for a great number of years from a bad leg; in which there were several deeply seated and old wounds, defyiugthe skill of some of the most eminent of the medical fsculiv, a variety of remedies were also used unsuccessfully: and it seemed to me that there was not any thing capable of mitigating the agonies she endured. At length, she had recourse to your tlintment and Pills, and after using them for about live weeks. she was completely cured, after all other means had failed to ntford her the slightest relief. I have no objection to these facts being published, if you feel disposed to make them known.

I remain, Sir, your most obedient servant. (Signed) EDWD. 'l‘0.\lKlNSON.
