I have been a great sufferer from Itheunia

nheumatism Is a Disease of the
Blood.
The blood in this disoase is found to contain
an excess of ibrin. VEGiTINE acts by convert
ing the blood from its disensed condition to a
halthy circulation. VEIETINE regulates the
bowels which is very important in this com
plaint. One bottle of Vegetine will give relile,
but to effect a permanent cure it must be taken
regularly, and may take several bottles, es pe
cially in cases of long sanding. V10ETI'VNE is
sold byt all druggists. Try it, and your verdict
will be the same as that of thousands before
you, who say, "I never found so much relief as
from the use of Vegetine," which is composed
exclusively of barks, roots and herbs.
"VEGETINE," says a Boston physician, "has
no equal as a blood puriller. Hearing of its
many wonderful cures, after all other remedies
had failed, I visited t'he laboratory and con
vinced myself of its geunine merit. It is pre
pared from barks, roots and horbs, each of
which is highly ciTective, and they aro coni
pounded in such a manner as to produce as
touishing results."

achievemv,.s of,the Russian Genf;

monts of the latter from the subso
quently exploded story prevailing
some time since ,iaking him no
other than one R. Clay Crawford, of
Tennessee, who figured as a daro
devil during the recent war between
the States. Some details fixing the
identity of Osinman, have boon fur
nished by the Turkish Ambassador
at Washington
FROM ISIS' DANKS
Osman Pasha was born about
1830, in Tokat, an Armenian town in
the Vilayot,and fifty. -five miles north
west of the city of , Sivas, on the
ancient Isis, now called the Yoshil
Irniaf. The town had a population
of about 60,000 inhabitanti,, and
contained schools at which the young
Armenian pursued his early studies.
His parents were people in tho mid
dle ranks of life, and considerable
care would seem to have been taken
with his early training.
OSMAN EFFEND.
He began his classical education
at Constantinople about 1848, under
the care of his brother, the late
Hussein Effendi, Professor of Arabic
in the preparatory school in the
Turkish capital. Here he graduated
first in his class, and entered the
army as lieutenant, at the beginning
of the Crimean war. He soon be~
came captain, and subsequently
adjutant, being distinguished for his
coolness and skill. In 1867 he was
sent to Crete with a battalion of
the imperial guard, fid returned,
after two years of bard fighting,
with the rank of colonel. During
his stay at the capital Osman Pasha
was connected with various military
duties and intrusted with several
missions which obtained for him a
promotion to the grado of brigadier
general, and lastly an appointment
on the staff of the Fifth Army
Corps as general of division. In
that position, as in the previous
ones, Osman Pasha's activity did
not relax, and his services became
daily more important and valuable.
While he was the Chief of Staff of1
the Fourth Army Corps lie was
placed in command of the division
at Widdin.
A MiARlSHAL.
At the opening of the Servian war
Osman was sent to quell the insur
rection. His gallantry beforeZaitchar
and on many other occasions won
for him the rank of Field Marshal.
This was accompanied by a special
irado from the Sultan. The begin
ning of the present wvar found him
still at Widdin, whence in July last,
lie sallied out to rolieve Tricopolis,
but finding it hopelessly lost he
turned aside to Plevna. There he
encountered Baron Kaudoner ; hero
he concluded to stay. For his
defeat of Schachoskoy and Kauden
er on July 31, lie was granted the
title of "Ghazi," meaning "The Vic
torious."
DEFENcE OF PLEvNiA.
The wonderful way in which he
fortified this wretched Bulgarian
town and the stubborn defence
which he made are matters of his
tory. Around that nucleus of an
army brought from the Danubian
fortress, gathered the chief strength
of the Bulgarian armies, and there
centred the hopes of the Turkish
cause. Attack after attack was re
pulsed with equal effoctiveness.
The gallant Skobeleft' tried in vain
to dislodge the forces in his front.
Gourko devastated the country in
his rear anud completed the chain of
investingf posts. But-drawn about
him the awful cirole of blazing can.
none' mouths-for four long months
Osman ?bha stood defiant, even
aggressive. No re..nforcements
conld roach him. and there seemns to
havo boon very little earnest desire
shown by the Turkish government
to send them. He was conquered
by the apathy of his countrymon
and by the constant watchfulness of
his onomios.
111 LAST FIOHT,
On Monday morning last, one
week ago to-day, he mado a des
porate assault upon the investing
lino in the direction of Widdin. He
was partially successful at first, but
was eventually crushed and com
polled to surrender. A five hours'
fight at the bayonet's point I In
this, his last fight, Osman Pasha
was wounded in the foot, and was
thou compelled to yield. He is
comparatively a young man-about
forty-seven.
of The following discription is given
1118 APPE AlANCE.
Osman Pacha was neither tall nor
short of stature, with broad should
ers, straight muscular logs and alto
gether of an athletic build. His
head was superb. His features
wore rogular and betokened
cariestness and quiet decision. His
uniform consisted usually of a
jacket, with broad facings of (lark
cloth, a long waistcoat of the Louis
XV. style and tight fitting trousers,
over which kneo boots woro drawn.
In dress, therefore, he presented a
striking contrast to the other Tur
kish generals, as there was nothing
loose about his costume. In camp
he nevor wore a sword, but invaria,
bly had a pair of field-glassos slung
over his choulder. Ho also always
carried a pencil, which projected
not from behind his ear, but from
underneath his fez. Osman Pasha
was a Turk among Turks, with no
especial love for the Europeans in
Turkey, and he could not endure the
sight of a correspondent unless the
latter was willing to go under fire
and sketch.
LIKE STONEWALL JACKSON.
Osman Pasha was not a fanatic,
but he was very pious. "I have
never seen him perform orisons the
orthodox Mahommedan fashion, but
I know that he .prays," says a corre,
spondent. He spoke little, never
entering into conversation with any
one. His officers watched his move
monts, received a brief order and
executed it, or answered a short
question and retired again into the
background. A taciturn man, he
had an immense power of work; was
always occupied, and slept little.
Energetic, within an iron will, self.
reliant, never asking for advice, he
was nevertheless extremely modest,
undervaluing both himself and his
achievements. He never wrote
dospatches ; his reports to Constan
tinople, consisting of a few words,
in which the result of his operations
were laconically related. The de
tails, according to his idea, belonged
to the past and he busied himself
with prosib!t circumstances.
T11E TITLE OF "nAzI."
The title of Ghazi, which wasi
conferred on Osman Pasha, is one.
of groat distinction, and rarely con
ferrod on a subject in Trurkey. In
deed, it is nearly three hundred.
years since any individual was sew
looted for such an honor. It was,,
on one or two occasions, conferre&~
during the great wars of the Turks
with Western Europe in the six
teoenth:century. The last tinio it was
conferred in modern days was upoli
the fortress of Shumla, which is al
ways designated in offiial docu-.
monts as Ghazl Shumnla. This for
tress ,has been besieged twenty
seven times and has never boon
taken. It may be again besieged
during the p resent war, but is not.
likely to fall in one campaign ; in.
deed, Rasgrad (now a fortified posi-.
tion) and Rustchuk must both be.
taken before Shumla .can bo effee
tively besieged.
It wvas reported that Osman had'
committed suicide since his sur
render. This is denied. Heb
still lives, and, has become quite a.
lien among the IRussian officrs.
A dospatch from Oscola No.,
says a mob of armed and masked
men took possession of that town'
on Friday night, arrested everybody
on the streets at f,he muzzle of re
volvors and shotguns, and then
went to the court%house and seized
all the tax books for this and. past
years in the county clerk' , and
Treastrer's odcos, and carried them
away. The trouble orw 'out of t4
