RUSSIA IN THE NORTH.

Writing under date the 26th ultimo, our Tientsin correspondent says: Our thoughts are still engrossed with the prospects of war. One day every one is confident that the whole thing will fizzle out, and just as this theory is beginning to comfortably catch on, in come telegrams and dispatches from various sources reporting the movement of Russian troops or some new development which sends expectation back on the war path again. Even those who most dread war on its own account are anxious to see an affair between Russia and Japan come off as the surest way of settling the position one' way or another. Either Russia gets a set back and has to come to terms, or Russia gets Peking! This is the prospect which seems to undoubtedly await us if Russia Try it in your bath and you will feel ali | thrashes Japan or does not fight at all. W
