KMtA(iKJ) TURKS.
l>nn?rroti* Condition ol" All.iir* in Hnlyiiriu.
The Rustchuk correspondent of the
Loudon Timet writes an follows : " The
twenty odd thousand troops of this garrison
are the perfection of soldiers.
They are brown, open-faced, big-sliouldero.l
follows, perfectly resigned to any
fate Alhih may have for them, with perfect
faith in the bankrupt government, for
thCciiief of which they shout and salmuu
every evening at sunset. The disorderly
Moslem element is i:: n st^ite of great !
fury with the Bulgan .... . id foreigners j
generally. Tiie Christians are frigiitcuocl
. to death lest some imprudent member of
their faith should provide the spark
"which might light up such a glare as
would throw Ratak into the shade completely.
Even the consuls have to be
careful for their lives. Proofs of the
extreme and dangerous tension of the
relations between Moslem and non-Mos- i
lein could be given without end. Mr. |
Richard Roade, the English and Ameri- .
can consul here, who lias never been ]
accused throughout the. late troubles of j
being in any way prejudiced against the j
Turks, but who has been suspected of j
leaning the other way, thinks that mat- !
tors are as serious as they can be, and :
his urgent warnings are ignored both at I
Downing street and Constantinople. It:
is believed by some here that Russian
influence, in the form of money, is art- j
fully planning a dreadful outbreak, and j
that those are 110 friends to the* Turk '
who do not insist upon a stop being put j
t > irregularities the firm repression j
<?f which would give satisfaction j
t:? decent Mohammedans aud non- j
Mussulmans alike-" The corre- j
smmdent explains an incident re- j
c?:it!y reported from Constantinople j
about flic British consul striking a Turk- j
ish officer. It seems this correspondent j
with one companion crossed in a email [
boat from Giurgevo and was arrested by i
Turkish naval officers. They were i
seriously threatened by a Moslem mob. '
The consul came to the rescue and push- |
cd the captain out of his way when the '
l itter tried to stop him. Thecorrespon- j
dent thinks that the consul's vigorous j
measures alone prevented them being ;
thrown into the- Danube by the mob.
A
Curious Prophecy.
Just before the defeat of Mr. Greeley |
for the Presidency, several gentlemen j
were cougregated on a piazza at New- ;
port, R. I., says the New Bedford
(Mass.) Mcrcurj/. Among them was ;
Chief Justice Chase. Another was one i
of the first conversationalists in the
world. The latter repeated not nu j
anecdote, but a prophecy, which had [
been muds by a hermit in Bavaria many j
yours before; and this prophecy was not J
only delivered, but printed by a number |
of the Allycm' inc // it?ny of about 1857. j
The Austro-Prussian war was correctly
predicted, as well as the France-Prussian
war and the taking of Paris. Now for j
the future. In 187G 7 the pope is to die,
which will cause a general European ;
war. X'-xl, France and Prussia are to j
hive uuother eonllict. Frnuee will be I
defeated and Paris taken for the second j
time. There will be a partition of France.
The Iberian powers (Spain and Portugal)
are to have a large share, as a'so Italy.
Belgium gets the northern part. Hoi- j
hind is ceded to Prussia. All that will
remain of France will be the old " lie do i
Franco," of which Paris is the capital, j
These results having been obtained,
there will be a general acknowledgment
of the folly and futility of excessive i
armaments. AU the powers will agree ;
to disarm. Swords will be beaten into
plowshares.

1870 were fulfilled. It scorns as tliongh
the rest might hi-. The pope is in bad
health. The chunces of u general war
growing out of the Euatern question are
excellent. Shou'd France think the
moment favorable to attack Prussia, and
be defeated, the conqueror would show
110 mercy. Franco would be rendered
harmless, and her territory divided. The
pirtifion of republican France is the
dream of the Prussian "Junker party."
The general reduction of armies is less
probable. II is easier to change the nfiip i
of Europe than human nature.
A Murderer Guillotined.
Billior, the man why killed hi3 mis- |
tress, cut her body into pieces, and threw
the;n into the Seine, was guillotined on i
the lirmd Point of the Hue de la 1
Boquette, Paris, 'lhousands of people ;
must have been anxious to witness the
execution. According to the observance
in such cases, however, the authorities
kept the date of the event strictly secret,
and only those who were adventurous
enough to remain on the famous place
all night, in the hope of seeing some- I
thing at daybreak, were privileged with j
the melancholy satisfaction of witness- i
iug tlio horrible sight. liilloir to the |
last was confident that his long service !
in the army would have influenced the j
mirshal. On his last afterxoou the :
prisoner ate his dinner quietly and with
a good appetite, and in the evening |
played a few games at cards with the j
keeper who remained iu his cell. At ,
one o'clock in the morning the fatal
truth was made known to the convict by
his companion at cards, whom the murderer
regarde.l at all times with special
disfavor. Billoir's answer was simply n
<<T t'tono'Iit it would be VOU who
would convey that information." Then
lie retired to bed, and slept tranquilly !
until the arrival of the public execu- j
tioner, R >eh. Ab ?at half-past two the |
crowd was cleared oiF the spot whore the !
scaffold stands, and the gloomy machine
was wheeled out an 1 iixod. A small detachment
oi' frenii inuerie on horseback
were stationed below the guillotine.
Tlie prisoner's last words before stepping
on the platform of the guillot ine frere : 1
" Good-bye, my father," a idressod to !

A Kahiurii (iir 1*> Sleight-ol-Hee!.
Not more than twenty-seven blocks

A .Marshal's Encounter with a Gambler.
Krichson is a city marshal and Woodlief
u gambler iu Houston, and their relations,
one being an enforcer of the law
aad the other a breaker of it, have not
Ween pleasant. Hie following description
is given of one <>f their recent street
encounters : WoodJief was angry at the
marshal for cau-ing his arrest the day
before, and was just o it on bail, when,
meeting the object of his ire on Main
street coining toward him, the gambler
drew his five shooter and tired, but miss
eel. Erichson, perceiving Iiis danger,
ilrcw a pistol, Imt tlie weapon caught iu
his clothing. In tlio meantime "Woodlief
obtained his second shot, the ball striking
Erichson in the thigh. He fell, but
succeeded m drawing 1113 pisroi. me
first time the weapon snapped. For the
next few seconds one shot followed
another. Ericbson, although prostrate,
firrd four ohots, three of which took
cflect m the person of his assailant.
Narrow Escape in n Croton Aqueduct.
Onco a year, or oftcner, usually in
November, an exploration ir made of tlie
interior df the New York aqueduct from
end ti> end, by Mr. Benjamin S. Church,
the resident engineer, who for over
j twenty years has been in charge of this
! part of the work. The water is shut off
at the Croton daiu, and the aqueduct is
emptied by the waste wiers which I have
described. Many strange and exciting
adventures befall the men detailed for
this service ; and though but one life
1ms ever bceu lost, large parties have
been in imminent danger. The manholes
having been opened previously,
the laborers under charge of Mr.
Church, dressed in rough suits, enter
the aqueduct at the dam, and travel
downward either afoot or in an ingenious
car propelled by a crank like the hand
cars used on a railway. The effect is
wierd and awe-inspiring. Some of the
men carry torches, whose smoke and
wavering blaze curl and flash in the
darkness ami throw fantastic shadows
:ind reflections on the moist walls. The
voices reverberate like peals of thuuder,
and seem to awake responsive vibrations
in the massive stone and brick work
itself. In some conditions of the atmosphere,
laborers repairing the masonry
live miles below can be distinctly heard
by those at the entrance, and at all times
the human voice pitched in an ordinary
key can be heard at a distance of two or
three miles, in, long low rumbles. A
broad halo of light frames the men in,
aud beliiud this there is an impenetrable
blackness, so dense that an inexperienced
person takes every step with extreme
caution. There are few greater promoters
of terror than the power of darkness,
and the simple, superstitious Irishmen
descending the ladder at the entrance
leave sunshine, sky and fields
above in no cheerful mood. The short
clay pipes are allowed to go out and few
words are spoken. It is a business to be
done with as soon as possible. Thousands
of tons of water are pressing
against the gates at the entrance, and
should a bar give way, or an order be
misunderstood, the flood would rush
down upon the unfortunates and engnlf
them with irresistible force. Once, in
fact, an order was misunderstood, and
twenty men narrowly escaped with their
lives. Mr. Church, with this number of
laborc; s entered the aqueduct to make
some repairs, and instructed the keeper
at the dam to let the water flow in again
at eleven p. m. The party were making
some repairs at a point some distance
below the entrance at eleven a. m. when
Mr. Chnrch noticed a gradual rise in the
water. Afraid of causing a panic, ho
did not say anything to his men, but
urged them 011 in the hope that the work
might ba completed that morning. The
water continued to rise, however, first
submerging their feet, and then creeping
up toward their knees with terrible
stealth and certainty. The situation was
that of a shipwrecked crew cast upon a
rock which is being slowly covered by
an incoming tide. The engineer now
realized the t'adt that his order hail been
misunderstood, and that the water had
been turned on at the wrong time, and
would soon be within a few inches of the
roof of the aqueduct. By this time the
men were in a highly nervous condition,
and Mr. Church had to use his authority
in preventing them from making a confused
retreat for the nearest exit, which
was some distance away. Meanwhile the
water lmd made its way above their knees
and was rushing through the aqueduct
with a velocity of two miles and a quarter
per hour. It wasjio easy work walking
against such a current as this, and the
progress made toward the man-hole was
unavoidably slow. The torches were
successively put out by the splash until
only one remained, and that threw a
/litn v*>11 n w imeertnin flicker on f!i?
(1 irk surrounding*. There was one danger
which Mr. Churcli foresaw and was
particularly anxious to avert. If the
men were not kept under control, each
would make a disorderly struggle to
reach the ladder at the man-hole, and a
delay would result that might prove
fatal. As the water increased in depth
the greater, of course, became their terror,
and when the gray light of the opening
camc into view their bodies were
submerged to their waists, wli le the current
almost lifted them off their feet.
By reasoning with them and encouraging
them, however, Mr. Church allayed their
fears and they gained the ladder, and
ascended it, one by one, in safety.?

None Like Him.
At the Detroit and Milwaukee depot
as a lady was about to get aboard the
down train, she said to the man who was
loaded down with her parcels: %
" A o\v, while I'm gone you must take
up and beat nil the carpets and lay them
agaiu."
" Of course," lie replied.
"And polish all the windows, rub off
the furniture and repaint the front steps."
"Twill, dear."
"And you must rake off the yard, make
some flower-beds, fix the alley fence and
black all the stoves before you pack them
away."
" Of course, darling," he smiled.
"And you must send me $20 per
week, write to me daily, aud the neighbors
will watch to see if you are out
after eight o'clock in the evening. Now,
then, good bye."
" Oil ! darling, how can I spare you !"
lie sighed, the engine groaned, and away
she went, and as lie turned to go out his
mental distress was so great that he fell
over a trunk,barked his shins and rubbed
half the skin off his nose.?Detroit Free

The Sweetness of Home.

sweetest pleasures of life; he feels not
the thousand endearments that cluster
around riiat hallowed spot to fill the
v >iil of his aching heart, ami while awav
liis leisure moments in the sweetness of
life's joys. Ts misfortunevour lot'? Yon
will iind :i friendly welcome from hearts
beating true to your own. The chosen
partner of your toil has a smile of approbation
-when others have deserted, a
hand of hope when all others refuse, ami
a heart to f??el your sorrows, as if they
were herown. Perluipsa smiling cherub,
witii prattling glee and joyous laugh,
will drive sorrow from your careworn
brow and enclose in it the wreaths
of domestic bliss. No matter how humble
that home may be, how destitute its
stores, or how poorly its inmates juv
clad, if true hearts dwell there, it is vet
a home. A cheerful, prudent wife, obedient,
and affectionate children, will
give their possessors more real joy than
bags (if gold and worldly honors. The
home of a temperate, industrious a14.il
honest man will be his greatest joy.
Coldness and Cordiality.
There is no other way by which friend
1 ship may be ho completely crushed oul
of existence, an by coldness of manner
hard words are no competitors at all, foi
they are so often satisfactorily explained
It is frequently said that "likebegetf
i like," and we believe that is often so,
! If we meet with an acquaintance whe
: grasps our hand cordially, and gives it r
j generous and hearty shake, and tliei]
j countenance lights up with a cheerfu
smile as they utter a pleasant and wel
1 come salutation, if we are feeling dul

: once be, ashamed of that feeling, ain
instantly put forth our energies to difv
j guise and banish it. If, on the con
! trary, we meet with one who repels oui
! very attempt to be cordial by a studiei

A Mill Site That Proved a Hold Mine. jj

sluices, and came upon the hole in the
ground where the waste had been allowed
to run when the mill was in operation.
This hole had been made at this ! Be
place because a tunnel was known to M*
pass within a few feet, and the refuse, hi
being in a liquid state, would flow off j
through the tunnel. The flumes had no Ls
sooner been removed than the presence Cc
of quicksilver was made apparent. F1

a space of ground about four by five
feet was permeated with small globules j};
of pure quicksilver, carrying a heavy B;
percentage of gold and silver. This
ground was all dug up and sluiced until a
a shaft twenty-five feet deep and six a'
wide Jiad bcon dug, when a connection p(
was made with the tunnel, and a large j u
deposit of quicksilver was found in such j F1
purity that it can be raised to the surface j
by shovelfuls.
' The only preliminary work necessary | ^
is to carefully skim tlie surface ground .

mine. How much of a deposit there is j
has not been ascertained, as the parties J qi
at work there are very reticent, but it is i
known tlmt between ?8,000 nncl $10,000 1 E,
has already been taken out and sold. A i
great part of the amalgam carries a j fi
higher percentage of gold than of silver, | ^
because the mill was running in t-he early ] o,
days of mining on the Comstock, when | R;
the ore3 were worked for the gold alone B,
and the silver was allowed to flow off.
There is no doubt but that tho deposit
will be found to continue, to the bedrock, ^
which is probably lifty feet deeper than k
has yet been obtained in the tunnel. w
For about tliree months there were live C(
men employed there, and the yield was
about sixty pounds of amalgam per day, ; ^
but since connection lias been made with j w

He Wanted to Exchange Wives. j n
When Sir Samuel Baker, the African j
traveler, was taking leave of Kamrasi, j n
king of Unyoro, that potentate asked
him, as a particular favor, to leave Liuly j
Baker beliiud. This cool request raised i l
Sir Samuel's ire, and in high huligna- | tion
he told the king that if ever he I T
made such a request again lie would !
slioot liirn. Lady Bilker, too, who over- j j!
heard and understood the offer, felt that !
a word from her would not be out of ?
place, and gave the monarch a piece of 1 fo
her mind in the strongest language she ' f
could commanJ. His majesty for ail'

conscious of having given any offense. *
At last, seeing that his guests were real- I
ly angry, he said, in a deprecating
voice: "Don't be angry. I did not ^
moan to offend you by asking for your
wife. I will give you a wife if you
waut one, and I thought you would have .
no objections,to give iuo yours. It is J
my custom to give my visitors pretty JC;
wives and I thought you would like to , <
exchange. Don't make a fuss about it; t ^
if you don't like to do as others do ! (
there's an end of it."
A Foiled Thief* Dilemma.
A pickpocket, who was out at heels as ! e
well as out at elbows, recently entered a j
basement shoe store on Broadway, New j ^
York, took olF his boots, aud directing ' r;
j.i i K? i r
UJilt Hiuy ?Xl?iUUl Ui; X*JO\/lUVA IMilXIHUH, I ?
proceeded to select auil try on a now ' [
pair. While the shoemaker Avas at work j
at the old hoots the customer attempted | i
to bolt with the new ones, but not being ! 5
so light footed as he was light fingered, |
lie was caught by the irate shopkeeper, i |
The latter not only forced him to take fc
oft'his new footgear, but, having already j
removed the sole from one of the old
boots, stoutly refused to sew it on again : &
until he was liberally paid therefor. ' dl
Having nothing in his own pocket, and _
having no one else's immediately avail- *
able, tlie discomfited pickpocket had to |
tie the severed sole to the upper with
his handkerchief, and limp home as best
he could. The would-be freebooter had
become a footpad.

Burnett's Cocoaine,

Burnett's Cocoaine,
Is an invaluable remedy for #
DANDRUFF.
Boston, Oct. 30.
I have used less than a bottle. The dandruff and
the irritation which caused it, have entirely disappeared,
and my hair was never before in so good
condition. A. A. FULLER.
BALDNESS.
Chicago, May jj, 1871.
?inre the recent use of your "Cocoaine," my previously
bald head has been covered by a luxuriant
growth of hair. I had always esteemed your preparation
as a dressing, knowing many persons who regarded
it very highly a^ such, but never before knew
how valuable it was as a restorative.
J. C. LEWIS.
LOSS OF HAIR.
Bancor, March 3,1868.
Your " Cocoaine" is the only dressing for the hair
used in my family for the Inst eight years. It not
only stopped my wife's hair from coming out, but increased
its growth. Iam also under obligations to
thissame " Cocoaine " for saving my own hair, which
was very fast coming out previous to using this
valuable preparation. J. C. MITCHELL.
IRRITATION OF THE SCALP.
? Waterville, Me , Sept. 15.
I ntirchascd a bottle onlyj for ihc purpose of a nair
dressing; but, to my'surprise, it has entirely removed
the irritation of so long standing. I have recommended
it to several of my friends, who were afflicted
in the same way, and it has wholly irradicated the
disease, JOSEPH HILL, Jr.
HAIR-DRESSING.
New York, Sept. a?.
For some time past I have been using your Cocoa*
ine, and think it far preferable to anything I have
ever used for the hair. FRANK LESLIE.
