England bad her commissariat scandal during the Crimean war. Some of the facts are recited in Justin McCarthy's "History of Our Own Times:" -The winter (1854-55) was gloomy at home as well as abroad. The news constantly arriving from the Crimea told only of devastation caused by foes far more formidable than the Russians sickness, bad weather, bad management. On shore the sufferings of the army were unspeakable. The tents were torn from their pegs and blown away. The hospitals for the sick and wounded at Scutari were in a wretchedly disorganized condi tion. " In some instances medical stores were left to decay at Varna, or were found lying useless in the holds of vessels in Balaklava bay, which were needed for the wounded at Scutari. Great consignments of boots arrived, and were found to be all for the left foot. Mules for the conveyance of stores were contracted for and delivered, but delivered so that they came Into the bands of the Russians, and not of us. Shameful frauds were perpe trated in the instance of some of the contracts for preserved meats. 'One man's preserved meat,' exclaimed Punch with bitter humor, 'is another man'd poison.' " - . . The similarity of the Crimean scandal to ,the scandal of our recent Cuban campaign is striking. In both wars the commissary departments were inefficient, and troops suffered from hunger and exposure. In both instances, hospital supplies were near at hand in ships, while the sick and wounded suffered for want of them. And then, a3 now, rascally meat contractors were in a conspiracy to poibon the defenders of the flag. THE MACS COME OUT STRONG. The following very complimentary editorial, in which Oregon's senator receives a share cf the laurels, is clipped from the Washington Post: There are four Macs in the senate McBride, McEncry, McLaurin, and McMillan. Two are Democrats and two Republicans. But they all voted for the Xxcaiy, and two of Ihem McEnery and McLaurin se cured its latincation. Our citizens of scotch descent are very solid members of society. They seldom get left in any important matter in which progress, prosperity and pa triotism are involved. It is a pretty safe thing to bet on the Scotchman. He makes it his business to keep on the winning side, and it is due him to say that, canny though he may be inordinary things, he is willing to Tisk a little, sometimes much, where bis feelings and convictions are con cerned, i He is a good, solid stand by in the hour of need.
