TUESDAY, APRIL SOth 1S78, The War* It in real bewildering to read the war news from Europe, as fur nished by the cablegrams. We read down one column and iccl perfectly satisfied that the mor row will bring us news of a dec laration of war by England, but in the next column we find posi tive assurances that the prospects for peace are very high indeed. It is, undgr the circumstances, but mere guess work with tho best of us, and our opinion on the subject is worth just about as much as the weather predictions ot the patent medicine almanac man. It is well known that Russia has, for a long time, wanted to get free and un interrupted access to the Mediter ranean sea, and thence to the At lantic. To do this it is necessary that the Bosphorus and Dardan elles be under her control. This, really, was the object of the late war between Turkey and Russia, Russia was victorious, and has gained the long sought prize ; but now comes the English govern ment and puts in her objections to Russia claiming the fruits of her successful war. England un derstands lull well, the people with whom she is dealing, and knows that on the day* that the Russian government has tree ac cess to the high seas, by other routes than the ice bouud Baltic on that day she will have a rival naval power that will override the ‘^mistress of the seas.” Ru* sia. having acheived a realization of the dream ol a century, will be slow in lelinquiidtiiig her rights. Great Britain seeing the impend ing danger to her maratime su- 'pfJrtSFitJ"Wilt" be equally as Slow iu acquiescing to tho demands of Russians. England wishes to dic tate to Russia, and Russia will not submit, therefore we think that a war is alnn st inevitable.— (Montezuma weekly. Butler Female Coll eye and Male Institute. We learn tioui Prof. White, , that Rev. John R. Respess, of Schley county, has accepted an iuvitation to deliver the com mencement seruion thu summer.

Col Beverly A, Thornton, of Columbus, will deliver the litera ry address on Wednesday the 19th of June. Col.
