AFFAIRS IN THE CRIMEA.--
The London:Times' has somewhat star
tled -the -publici , mind--in- England —end
throughout Europe, beyond doubt, by •
series, of editorial articles vesently, cone
prising a moat :thorough, trenchant and
uniparing review of the British army in
the - Crimea, its condition, management,
and Attain ifice to the policy of the nation.—
[tit censure of Lord Raglan is open, unqual
ified and 'crushing. The tone of these ar
ticles forbids -the ,sespicion, that they are
merely diatribes levelled at the adminis
tration for political ,effect. , They are lin
qiiestionably the delibera t e result of a
ra •
clears conviction of duty to the British
public,.and constitute a task by no means
of the moat agreeable nature. to the jour
nal engaged - inlt. The TiineS has evi
dently been supplied *lilt (amain allprob.

himself; and it has undertaken the task'nf
of exposing the pretentions, vain anti . its ,
efficacious'liolict of—not the administra
tion—hut the national institutions,. Uta
aristocratic machinery of Great Bt halts.
The Times present a moat marked cen
tres' between the condition of the English
and French armY; and clearly establishes
the fact that the hitter is infinitely superior
in all its appointments, and especially in.
that most important and indispensable of
all, the cm iiiii issii Mt department. This
comparison is matte in cmtnection with a
deliberate attack upon the inexperience or
the officers of the British army, their igno
rance of the necessities which the position
of the ;thirty involves, and their indiffer
ence to the comfort and convenience of
the men. On the part of the French army
it is contended that every thing is differ
etit and th‘acontrest is made to serve a
powerful argument against the favoritism,
partiality, nepotism and general exclusive
ness of the mode by which the British
artny is 'officered.

The United States VIM not the only por
ti . nn'itf America afflicted with the evil of
foreign:pauper immigration. From sta
tistics
_published in the Canadian--paperti,
appears that ot 53,183 immigrants who
arrived at Quebec •during the year 1854,
no lessittan 3,451 were- paupers, 28 be
ing English; 2,971 Irish, and 422 were
Germans., It Is natural enough tor the
British =government to send its own pau
pers to its own cblorty,but the fact of there
having arrived at 'the Sarno place no less
•than 422 paupers from Germany seems
singular, , This, no doubt, arises Irma the
arrangements made by Liverpool shipping
house. teiforward • German emigrants to
America by way of Liverpool.

GENZRALL PATiftollitirr.—A paragraph is
going the rounds of the press, in which it
is said that Gen Canrobert is believed to
be the - son cit the Emperor - - Napoleon= 1..
and of Madame de Rainey . He passed
the early portion of his life in the enjoy
ment of the ease and insoucian c e which- a
large fortune can bestow, and it was not
until called from his life.of dissipation to
attend upo,n.the dying bed of his mother
that he learned the secret of. his•hirth.—
Immediately notwithstanding the aedes•
lion of fortune suddenly acquired by his
mother's death ; notwithstanding the
hab
its of idleness and luxury he'had indolged
in' ever since his - birth, 'be declared,. that,
with ouch bloud in his veins, he should
acorn to remain inactive. He instantly
set ouffor Algiers, as a volunteer in . the
Chasseurs, minas risen, by slow degrees,
to the ,"station he now. occupies... The
moral effect of his relationship to thegreat
Napoleon,thas been immense - upon the
troops under his Conitivind, and enabled
him to obtain an ascendancy which St..
Arnaud Could never acquire.
THE WAR' Amotvo THE G.EHERALE:
We find in the Isle California papers a
letter from Gen. Wool, connlnanding in the
, Military Department of the Pacific, writ
! ten in reply to an article in•the Washing
ton' Union, censuring him for neglect of
his duties, and for "an over-zealous'atten 7
lion to His political prospects " The
General denies that he has neglected. his
duties, and lays great stress upon his sue
teas in deleating the filibustering move •
-
, molts originated in San Francisco. But
it is charged that, in his operations
against the filibusters, Gen. Wool wasted
time unnecessarily in San Fratonse9,
when he ought to have been on a tour of
inspection and in the ordinary ditties of,
his command . It is also itelinuatEd - that
he preferred' remaining in San Francisco.
as it afforded the best field for political in
trigue. At all events, Gen. Wool consort
ed in California with the anti-adminis•
lion democrats, attended a banquet at
which the Administration was dishonored,
and gave other evidence of his ..insubordi
nation." A sharp correspondence has
also taken place between Gen. Wool and
Secretary Davis, orthe War Department,
so that the rupture between the General
and the Administration may be considered
complete.
The Troy Whig says that "it is a sin
gular had that every leading General who
has been sent to Mexico and California
since 1846—Taylor, Scott, Worth and
Wool, have each in turn been subjected
to a fire in the rear from the War Depart
ment after their arrival, and while perfor
ming their active duties."
FATHER AND CHU.D.—The "Chicago
I Press" relates the f dlowing affecting- in
cident during the trial of Green the Chica
go hanker, for the murder of his wile.—
The piimoner appeared in his place, se
companied by his little boy of six years,
who sat upon his hither's knee, the only
being in the world who had affection
enough to exi'iit it in that dark hour.—
The little lellow is a bright and handsome
child, possessing his father's outline of
I head and expression of mature, and set in
!the whining innaeence of childhood.—
The similarity and contrast between the
I two was striking and painful. At some
I . allusion of the prosecuting counsel to the
dismemberment of his family, that stern.
old man pressed his little boy to his heart,
and bowing his head over him, wept in
bitter agony. The lad unable to realize
the position •of his parent, yet with the
sympathy which distinguishes childhood,
burst into tears, and in infantile wonder
looked from his father to the multitude and
the speaker. It was a sad and . touithing
si!ht.
A Onerous RISTORL—The following
is said to have occurred in Livingston
I county, Kentucky widow lady took
an orphan boy to raise, ,
.quite small, and
when ho arrived at the age of 'eighteen she
married him, she then being in her fiftieth
year. They lived many years together,
happy as any'couple. Ten years ago
they took an orphan girl to raise, This
fall the old lady died, being ninety-six
years of age s and in seven weeks after the
old Man married the girl they had raised,
he being sixty-eight years RC age and she
eighteen."
RUSSIAN RULE IN T H E CRIMEA.-4
late decree which the Emperor Nicholas
has issued in relation to the Tartars of the
Crimea is as follows : ,
"Art. Ist. Every Tartar guilty of bad
intentions, or of hostile designs, shall be
put in prison until he has given evidence
that he repents. Art 2d. Every Tartar
who commits robbery shall have a leg or
an arm nut off. Art. 3d. If a Tartar com
mits murder without stealing, he shall be
