A Sydney telegram, dated Feb.- 6, gay S: —The' remains of the late Mr Eo-an, the Postmaster-General, have been replaced in their original grave. The following extract from the letter of a war correspondent of the London Times gives an insight into the evils of ■war . —" If any ' happy home' had a floor lett or a table or a chair in the wrecked village*, it has gone now in the flames of many watch fires and camp kitchens. An amateur told me that nothing burnt so well as 'piano wood,' and that he had no idea of its value, having had an opportunity of testin ■■ the property before. I hear the army before Orleans suffered greatly from cold in spite of the warmth afforded by burning villages and farmfor the wounded out in the fields? Death after torture! The condition France will be in next year promises to be, if possible, worse than her present state. Here we aie eating all the cows, so tljere will be no .calves in 1871; and every one is so busy killing and eating, and earing and killing, that there is no thought for the morrow. Suekmg pigs, jambs, sheep, calves, chickeas, ducklings, goslings, all die almost as soon as iJjey show sigoa of life."
