WAR WiTil RUSSIA.— At the present juncture it would bo difficult far any one exopt a prophet of (ho Lighe. t rank to any wluther or not the preset t negotiations between England and busia will lead to a general European war, or whether they will end in envke. The absence <f full information as to what is transpiring between the two countries may indicate that the political breeze is blowing harmlessly past ; or, it msy te the awful silence which generally precedes a storm. In either esse, we ought to bo prepared for the worst. If a general war breaks out ti e price of nearly every article of commerce will rise. Among other commodities wool and labor will go up Now is the time, therefore, to lay in a •lock of clothing, before the general advance begins. In order that we may not be caught napping we have just purchased ft Splendid Assortment of Winter Tweeds ana other materials necessary to a weliequipped tailoring establishment, wh ch we are prepared to offit at unusually low prices for cash.. Regarding style and fit, it is almost needles* f'-> r Qa to repeat what everybody knosfi, viz , that by our menlific mode of cutting, and tha care exercised by us in fitting the figure, a mis-fit is an impossibility.— Cuaigukau and Co., Mftobiot Jailors, Tancted street.
