Tho war botween Russia oud Turkey, nnd tho completo subjugation of tho lattor, is only tho prelude to a settlement of whnt lins long been known and dreaded ns thc - Eastern Question. It is to bo followed either by further wnr, in which Russia will bo confronted by moro formidable powers than Turkey, or by a conference of tho European nations, whoso difficult task it will bo finally to reconcile, if possible, what HOW 800m to bo irreconcilable interests. In order fully to understand tho prcsout situation, wo must revert very briefly to thc' i Crimean Wnr, twenty-four ybnrs ngo. That war was fought by Russia, on ono side, and langland, Franco, Turkey and Sardinia ouj tho other.. It can scarcely bc doubted that it was then Russia's pur poso to seek an fo'utlcl, both for hor War ships nri.d her oom Tnorco, from tho Rlaok Sea through tho Dardanelles nnd tho Bosphorous to tho Mediterranean. A moro glauco nt tho map) ?fill ?how whnt nn immense importnnoe such1 ?n passage-way has to, Russia. That great 'Empire touches tho sea only on two sides.-. on tho Bullio on tho North, and on thc Black Son in tho South. Tho Baltic is closed to navigation by icc eight months in thc year.-' Russia, bofdro (ho' Crioieuu war, was ?ot permitted to have access from tho Block ?Sea to tho Mediterranean through these Straits; and these Straits were, and aro still, within Turkish territory. Now Russia has always had a good pretext for attacking Turkey, bocauso Tuikcy has ruled ovor nnd oppressed many millions who are, liko Rus sia, Christian io faith, and also, Uko Russia, Slavic in race. lier oxcuso for invnding Turkey just boforo tho Crimean wnr, was that sho hod n right to cb a tn pion tho causo of tho down-troddon Chriatinn Slnvs. But in nt tacking Turkey sho assailed what England and Franco thought to bc their interests;,and for this reason: These two notions, especially England, feared that if Uussia should obtain tho-free right of pasaogo through tho straits (thc Bosnhorus and tho Dardanelles) sho would soon, wit! tho Blaok Son for a dockyard, crento groat navy, arid bocomo their mar?timo rival . on tho waters of tho globo. Turkey had long bcou used, ns a wonk nnd almost, de pepdont State, as nu obstacle in tho way of Russian nggrcspion; ond tho cause of -ff urkpy wns espoused, not for Turkey's sake put booauso she constituted this coDvcnioo barrfer, Rutista was defeated iu thc Crimea. Tho oonquercrp diotated tho treaty of Puris, by whioh'tho"integrity nod independence of tho Ottomnn Empiro" wns gnnrnntecd by tho Powers of Kuropo, and Russin wns for biddon, not only to puss her war ships through tho Straits, but even to have war ships nnd arsenals on tho Block Soa itself In 1871, When England's olly, France, was prostrate nt tho feet of Russia's olly, Ger many, Russia succeeded in compelling her ?ld enemy so far to modify tho treaty of Paris, ns to permit hor to linVQ war ships and arsenals in tho Blaok Sea. Sho was still forbiddon, however, to sail war ships through tho straits, though hor merchant mon wcro freely allowed to pass through. Tho present situation may be regarded 08 tho inevitable sequel of these events. Rus sin, hnving wnxed Btrong ngniri, found in tho Bulgarian masaaores ond tho Bosnian insurrection another pretext for advancing Southward, and oqco moro attempting tho deet.ragtion of tho Ottoman Empire, tho obstnolo to her possession of a mantiino position on tho Mediterranean and h freo outlet to hor ships. Wo . ha vd scon with what success her attempt,, .so far os subduing tho' Turks, has boot* attended. Sho has advanced Jo, tho gates of Constantinople, and tho shores of tho Stroits; and lina there diotated tho treaty of San Stefano to tho Sbltno. But now sho is" confronted by tho rivalry .. and jealousy of ?wo powers, Austria and England. Austria's interest is opnosod to ? tho creation of now largo Slavio States on liqr bordors; bccauBO, hor owu populatjpn being mado up of Slavs as woil as Ilun ^arians,|Gormnns, Koumnns, nnd Czechs,she fenjs tho inflo?noo of a riotv Slnvio power as making hor own Slavs rostjess, and arousing Gio jealousy of her othor rncos. England, however, ls Husain's most strenuous sod determined antagonist. She dislikes lo ?co tho Sultan's empiro crushed, bcoiuso U hos boen so cffootuol on impodi cut to Uussiau ambitioa. Sho objets to \ tho orcotioi) of a largo indopoodopt Bulga ria, einco such a state would completely uudor Russian Influence, and einco its limits, os marked but in the treaty of San f-Jtofr.no, would givo a Bulgarian, and there foro a llustian, seaboard ou tho Moditorra neau itself. Ho reosous for not desiring to soo Russia nblo to bcoomo a mar?timo power in tho South, may bo regarded as twofold. Tn the ?rst placo, sho is herself queen of thc seas, sud will not, if sho ona help it, ; brook a rival on tho groat dcop. In tho second place, sho recognizes in Russia on aspirant for tho possession of her vast and rich empire in India. Tho question how India is imperiled is too largo a ooo to bo discussed in an. artiolo so brief aa this. Suffice it to say that Iius sia hos for many years boon making oon quosts in Gcotral Asia, -straight in thc direc tion of Indio; that sho undoubtedly seeks military aud commercial osoondonoy in Asia; that ludia is a most tempting and glittering prize; and that abo gains, by this very treaty of San Stefano, o further groat od vantngo in Asia by toking from tho Turks a largo slico of Armenia. Ilcro tho Suez Canul comes io. That, ns all know, is tho nearest routo from Europe to India. Nino tooths of tho vessels that pass through it uro English. By it, Eng land not only has a short out to her great Asiatic depondenoy for her commcroo, but a rapid communication for military purpo ses. Wo know, too, thut England controls about one-third of thc shares in tho Ounal. Now, if Russia bo a rival of England in Asia, and orioo^ay hopes to wrcBt India from her, it is of great importanoo to England to retain tho supremacy of tho seas. Ry this olouo can sho protect thc Suez Canal from attack, glenco ber opposition to tho acqui sition bj^Russia of Benports on thc Medi terranean, and a freo, passage' for her war ships through thc straits. Tho main purpose of tho Conference, if it meets, will bc to reconcile these conflict ing interests. Hy tho troaty, n groot Bul garia is oreatod whioh will virtually bo "a little Russia." Tho que.-,lion of thu passage of tho straits is loft to tho powers1. . Russia tftkes h 'large slioo of Turkish Arnioniaj whioh England will protest against. Tur-i key io Europo is shorn of a largo portion of its provincos, and practically ocasos tob? tho barrier it has lung been to Russian etuis, It is for tho powers to decido between tho two nations, who will enter tho Conforonoo as virtual contestants; or, If they fail to do so, it is .possible that tho issue will bo deter mined sooner or later, by tho sword/, AN INITIATED TRAMP.-Wo havo before maintained that tho tramps scouring about tho country aro a regularly organizod fra ternity, having n general understanding with one another, and having n ritual ol questions and answers. Their uniform appearance, and their periodical visits tc thc same localities, their regular calls at thc sarpc houses, where they have beforo seouTod food, all point to this. A sheriff of r Western county has ourious emblems aboul them, has studied their character and listened to their conversation, until he oar tell n regularly initiated tramp from ar importer. The following amusing and ' in structive dialogue took place between tlx sheriff and one of the squad of tramps re cently committed to jail: j M Pro m whono? como you?" "Prom a- town io fiow York, called Jo rUsalonr;A' "What's your business hero?"

"In scoking food, by hoing ofton donied jut ready to try again." "How gained you admittance to th i lown?" "Ry n good many long tramps." "How wero yoii roociyed?" . "On thc end of o night policeman's billv presented to my head." "How did tho policeman dispose of you? "Ile took mo several times around th own, to tho South, to thc East, to th West, where ' ho found tho city marsha )olioo judge, and thc jailor, whero a gron nany questions wcro osked." "What ndvioo did tho judgo givo you? "Ho odviscd mo to walk in uprigh 'cgulav steps and to rcnounoo tramping. "Will you bc off or from?" . "With your permission I'll bo off vcr juiokly." "Which way aro you travoling?" "East." "Of what aro you io pursuit?" "Work-whioh, by my own endoavo nd tho assistance of others, I hope I sho icvcr bo nblo to find.". "My friond, you aro now afc* an instit' ion- whero tho wicked oro always troublt onie and tho weary aro as bad as tho ref ifoti will now bo conducted to tho midd ihambcr by a flight of winding stairs, coi listing of fivo or moro steps.

An' aoco of this ride readied tho Rev.

One fli to a family might do for amusement, but tho good of io many flizo I'll be dog on if I can soo, oan you? ?taatli by a Dishcloth. ? A lady gives tho following good advice about dishcloths: If they arc black and stiff and smell like a barn yard-it is enough-throw them in' the firo and henceforth . and forovcr wash your dishes with cloths that are while, oloths that you can see through, and* seo if you' over have that disease again. . There.arc sometimes other causes, but I havo smelled a whole houso full of typhoid, fever in ono "dish rag." I had somo neighbors once olever, good sort of folks; one fall four of | them were sick at one timo'with typhoid fever. The dootors ordered tho vinogar barrels white-washed, and threw about forty oeuts' wqrth of oarbolio acid in the swill pail nnd department. I - went into ' tho kitchen and made gruel. I needed a dish cloth and looked a rod nd and found nevera! and such "ragsl" I burned them all, lind called tho daughter of tho houso to get me a dishcloth. Sho looked around on ' thc table. "Why," abe said, "thora was.about a dozen her*? this^nOrhing," and site looked in tho wood box and on tho mantelpiece and felt in tho cupboard. "Well," I said, saw somo old black rottou rags lying around and I burnod thom-for tjiore is death iu such dishcloths ns tlioso, and you must nevor use suoh again." 1 look turns at nursing that family for weeks, and I bolleve those dirty disoloths were tho causo of all that hard work. Therefore, I say to overy housekeopor, keep your dishcloths cleon. You moy ooly brush and comb your'head on Sundays, you need not weur n collar unions you go from lioino-but you most wash your'dishcloths. You may only swoop tho floor when tho aun gels right; tho window? don't need washing, you can look out of the door; that spider's tvob on thc front poroh don't hurt anything -but ns you lovo your lives wash out youi iisholoths. Lot tho foxtail grass grow in tho gorden (tho seed is a foot deep onyway,) ct tho holes in tho heels of your husband's foot-rags go undarned, let tho sugo go un fathered, let tho childrens shoes go two Sundays without blacking, lot the hens set four weeks on ono wooden egg-but do ivash out, your dishcloths. Fat without tablecloth, wash your faces and lot them iry, do without a ourtnin for your wiudowa ind cake for your toa-but for heaven's sako keep your discloth clean. PltAISE YOUR WIPE.-Praiso your wife, Dian; for pity's sako give her a littlo ?cn. jourogomcnt; lt won'? hurt her. Sho math your homo comfortable, your heart bright ind shining; food agrocnblo; for pity's saki tell her you thank her, if nothing moro. Sho don't expect it; it will mako hor oyes [>pcn wider than thoy have dono thoso ten yoors, but it will do hor good, and you too. 1'hcro aro umny women to day thirsting for words of praiso, tho languagoof encourage ment. Through summer's boat, through winter's toil, thoy havo drudged uncom plainingly, and so accustomed havo their falliera, brothers and husbands becotno to their monotonous labors that thoy look for and upon thom os they do tho daily rising of tho sun, and its daily going down. Homo cvory day may bo made boautiful by an appreciation of ita holinosa. You know, if1 you oan take from your drowor a olean shirt whoncvor you. want, it, that som?body'a fingers hivonohod in tho toil of making it frosh and agreeable, so smooth and lustrous. A PAnAi.TjF.Ti ?A8R.-A ragged, snivel ing, middle aged man oalled at a houso and asked for food, but tho lady of tho houso called out: "Why don't you work for food?" "I would, if I. knew whero I could find work," he promptly ropliod. "Thoro's a placo down town whore yon oan saw wood and cum your dinnor," sho continued. That noomed to stick him for holf a minuto, but he finally said with'groat solem nity: "Madam, let mo state a parallel caso. Thoro is a plaoo in Honvon for you, but you don't want to dio until you oro driven toit."
