^Berlin, Ootober 6.?The residence
of the aon of Count Von Arnim was
searched last evening by the police,
under the belief that letters to his
father from Prinoe Bismarck might be
ooooealed there, but tbe documents
were not found* The son of the
Count is & Lieutenant iu the Dragoon
Guards.
Constantinople, Ootober 6.?The
Sultan, acting, it is learned, by official
finthnri?y_ nnder the pressure of Eng?

London, Ootober 6.?The Mark
Lane Express has the following: The
week olosed with considerable fall of
rain, which has been long wanted to
lessen tho effects of protraoted
drought. Wheat is. still decliuing,
though no oarefuily prepared state?
ment has shown that tbe crop is mnch
above the average as to quautity or
quality. All advices from the conti?

A Buohareat letter iu the Allegemeine
Zsilung criticizes the American manner
of appointing Consuls, whose salaries
are defrayed from private sources.
The writer says that in 18G6, Hunga?
rian emigrants in New York iuduoed
the Washington Government to ap?
point one of their number to a consu?
lar offioe, they paying his salary, in
order to avoid charge on the Unitad
States Treasury, when the relation be?
tween tbe two countries justified uo
Buch outlay. The Hungarians called
this officer our Consul, but when Hun?
gary and Austria beoame reconciled,
this offioe became superfluous, and tho
Jost will probably be abandoned. Tbe
ewB of New York obtained Mr. Piex
otto's appointment, tbey paying his
salary, and an article iu the Jewish
paper, published in New York, repre?
senting him as only the protector of
persecuted Jews of Boumania, has
produced much Irritation in Bucharest.
The Roumanian Government claims
to have done all that was possible to
protect and improve tbe position of
the Jews, and the success of its efforts
are deolared to be manifest in the ces?
sation of tbo exodus of the Jews, and
in their steady immigration to Bouma?
nia from Austria and Russia

One-Legged Breeches.?A one-leg?
ged soldier, walking np the Bowery,
wus accosted by a clothing merchant
with the usual "Sell you someiiogs to?
day?" Entering the store, the veteran
was invited to iuspcct the largo stock,
but having looked through the array
of coats aud vests and trowsers, he
turned to go, sayiog thut he saw no?
thing there that would suit him.
"Veil, vat you vauts?"
"I waut a puir of one-legged panta?
loons."
"Vasdat all? Y.ioob, briug mo <;ueof
dum one-legged gray pants ou dat pile
in de corner."
Iu a few minutes Jacob returned,
aud reported that the last pair had
been sold.
Meanwhile, the partner next door,
who had been listening through tho
thin partition, had mapped out a plan
of tMinpaign uguiust the one-legged
oripple. "Yohu," ho whispsred to un
attuudunt, "out me off do leg of one of
dem gray pants. Send him up, quick!"
liy the time this had been done, the
soldier had hobbled out of the first
store ouly to be inveigled into the
secoud. Agaiu he went through tho
tuspeetiou of odds and ends, and agaiu
demanded one-legged trow.-ers, hinting
tti.it he didn't believe tho trader had
them.
"Not h.tf ooo-legged pants! Fadder
Moses, vot you takes me foi? Yobo,
tiring me ouo of dem one-legged gray
pants iu dat pile in de back of de
slit ore."
The newly altered trowsers were pro?
duced, aud the wugghh soldier gave
himself up as lost. But as he spread
them before him, he became conscious,
as did the dealer, of something wrong.
"Mein Gott! Fadder Abraham!
Yohn, you huf rutu me! You haf cut
off do wrong leg!"
This was probably the same dealer
who wus receutly called upon by u
young man for n coat. A lit wus made
in due time, aud then came tho hag?
gling about, ttie price. First, twenty
dolluta was fixed, then the clothier
abuttal dollar after dollar, lighting his
wiy inch by inch, until at lengm he
hud offered the garmout for eight dol?
lars.
"Do jou think I'm made of mo?
ney?" itsked the young muu iudig
uutitly, ns he turned to depart,
"Say, you come pack! I sell you
dat coat if it cost mo a leg. V-<t you
gif for him, any now?"
"I'll give you two dollars."
"Two dollars! Vy de buttons ish
more wort ush dat! Sphlit the dif
ranee?make it twenty shillings!"
"No; I'll give you two dollars."
"Veil, take him. It was a pooty
coat. You gif me two aud a quarter?"
Producing the two dollars, the youug
man moved away with his purchase;
but as he reached the door hu heurd
the dealer exoluim, with uplifted
hands:
"Gott help me! I only make one
dollar on dat coat!"
Auother of the Chatham streot deal?
ers had what he called army broganB
and cavalry boots. An ex-soldier pur
chased a pair of the latter one rainy
day, but returned to the store within
a few minutes, complaining that the
soles were of pasteboard, and bad
already soaked to a pulp.
"Vat you vas done mit dem boote?"
asked the dealer.
"Why, I walked two or three
blocks."
"Vulk? You valk in dem boots?
Vy, dem vos gavulry boott!''
