ENGLAND IS AN EFFETE POWER. They are already dangerousay exalted over their belief in our weakness, It is certain that.if we do not check the Russian advance we will lose our hold on the. Indian population. If we don't fight, they will. It is certain that an unchecked Russian advance on Con- stantinople would excite A DANGEROUS REACTION among the Muesnlmans of India. The shortest way to keep down these classes is by fighting Russia. The empire of India must to cemented with blood. The Afghanese populations are in re- volt and there is uneasiness everywhet e, which can only bo quieted by au ex- hibition of England's power. The Government has mush information showing the emergent character OF THE SITUATION IN INDIA • which is not before the public,” "How far will 'Englund permit Rus- ,sie to go before declaring war ?" "The occupation of Constantinople or the opening of the Dardanelles to the Russian. navy. Up to. this point England can remain quiet. Beyond that point she will fight beyond' all question. "HOW ABOUT GERMANY ? "The insolen ao-of Russia +shows that she is backed by some other Power, presumably by Germany i but Germany does not'colint, She cannot move ex- cept at the risk of setting the armies. of ?raeco in motion. Incase Frauoe, Germany, and England `aro involved, nothing can prevent' Austria taking the - d.; ..i 's influence LAWLESSNESS IN NORTH MID- DLESEX. Peen: DUAr,1Sn IN Brnnur:ra —Tun T.,uCAN LOCI. 1'F BURST OPEN, AND A PRISON- ER RESCUED. One night last week three large barns belonging to Mr. John Herbert, farmer living between Liman ar,d Clandeboye, were totally destroyed by fire, together with theft contents. The loss is very severe, as a good deal of Mr. Herbert's Crops were in the barns at the time, and the buildings wore of a superior kind, The fire was undoubtedly the, work of an incendiary, ae the propri- etor next morning traced freshly made footsteps from the road to the barns. It is rumored that late difficulties in which Mr. Herbert had been engaged may have been , the cause of the out- rage. Chief Constable Everett, of Lllcan, lately arrested a young man named Ryan, on a charge of having an unlaw- ful weapon in possession -that weapon being a huge dirk -knife. A consider. able number of Ryan's friends objected to the surest, and threatened to liber- ate him from the lock-up, in :which he was placed. Consequently, the con- stable 'guarded the building till three o'clock in the morning following the St- reets, when, all being apparently quiet, he wont home. The boys wero not to be beaten, however, and no sooner had Mr. Everett gone than, leaving a house in whish they had been concealed, they smashed the doors of the lock-up, and, gaining an entrance, liberated the prisoner. Ryan has not been seen in Liman since ; and, although several young men aro suspected of commit- ting ospnit-ting the lawless act, there is no detect clueto the depredatois,aand they will likely go punished.
