THE WAR.
The only items of general interest are
that Vienna negotiations are postponed
for two weeks, thus affording another
ohance for peace. The Allies have now
300 guns ready to open fire on Sevas
topol, aud after a bombardment of 4S
hours will storm the place on the south
side, only waiting a favorable oppor
tunity.

THE WAR.
The London Time? advocates the
immediate discharge of Lord Raglan
incompetent, bitterly assails the Ministry,
and says that Dalhousie, the present
Governor of India, is the only proper
person for the War Office.
At the Vienna Conference, the repre
sentatives of England, France and
Austria, agreed upon and drew up an
interpretation of the four points. The
Austrian Minister carried the documents
to GortchakofF. who was in company with
the Prussian Embassador.
V hen asked if he was prepared to
accept the interpretation without reserve
or modification, he replied, his instruc
tions were only to treat on the basis
of the four points, and ask two weeks
delay to confer with the Czar, which
was granted.
The terras reported are neither hard
nor humiliating to Russia. The Russian
interpretation of the four points are said
to differ but little from tlint of the Allies.
The siege works of the Allies at
Sevastopol are advancing, and reinforce
ments arriving.
Canrobert writes he is able to take the
offensive and make good -his losses.
The army is full of confidence. Scarce
ly a night passes without an attack
being made on the French lines. The
French works extend to bottom Quaran
tine bay, but the Russians contested
every inch of the ground.

were unanimous in their opinion,' that
amputation ofthe limb was the only thing
likely to save him, and oven then” his re

the gravy. When it is folly done, take
off the skin and bolter crusted upon the

will find it very delicious, but too rich
for dyspepties.
Naturalization Statistics.
During the year 1854, the number of
foreigners naturalized in New York city
was 3163. Strange to say, there is in
Ptnladelahiu no way of finding out how
many persons are naturalized, A)ear

make inquiries at the office of the proper
Court, but lie was informed that no

Medical Testimony cannot be controverted—
One of the most startling cases is narrated
of Dr. M‘ Lane's Vermifuge, by Dr. J< hn But
ler, of Lowell, Trumbull county, Ohio. The
case was that of a young lady who had been
very sick for eight years, and had consulted . ,.
number of physicians, who had treated it as |
one of prolapsus uteri. Dr. Butler was then ”
called in, and for a time believed with his pre
decessors that it was a case of prolapsus. He
was, however, soon forced to the conclusion
that his patient was suffering from worms,
and after much persuasion, prevailed upon
her to take two doses of Dr. McLaue’s- Ver
mifuge. This medicine had the effect of re
moving from her a countless number of the
largest size. After she passed them, her
health immediately returned. She is since
married, and continues to enjoy excellent
health.
