TURKEY.

The Bosnians are following the example of the other
nationalities dependent upon the Porte, in demanding the
establishment of local institutions. The Christians resident
in Bosnia have petitioned the Porte for the free election
of a local parliament, the choice of judges by the people,
the admission of Christians as witnesses before the tribu-
nals, and generally the establishment of a communal
autonomy,

THE " OWL " ABROAD.

The Ow/ makes one or two tolerably safe speculations
relative to that great mystery, the Grant Cabinet. Mr.
Adams, the late American representative in England, will
take some portfolio. General McClellan will be Minister
of War. Mr. Motley or General Sherman will probably
be offered the post of English Ambassador, so that Mr.
Reverdy Johnson's dinner-eating will soon terminate, and
the leave of absence which he is said to have applied for
will be unlimited. The bird of night makes a statement
which, if exact, will cause much excitement on the Con-
tiakint, It, is that the King o liwyers whim property

nal Tuft been seaueetratea by tne vnamneso"
A very liberally-abusive speech from Count Bismarck,
been invited by the Czar to pay a visit to St. retell'
burgh.

DYNASTIC NECROMANCY.
The Tomahawk has successfully terminated an inguSil
which has, at least, the merit of being just a little ullef
promising than the research respecting the "Number
the Beast." By the law of coincidences, the Emperor et
the French, who is the Tomahawk's especial aversion, leas;
fall some time during the present year. The calculatie'
is managed thus: Louis Philippe came to the threne
1830, add to this number the sum of the figer,T,
composing the date of the Orleauist king's birth
1, I, 7,7, 3, and the total is 1848—the date a 1)°,11,,-
Philippe's fall. Add to 1830 the date of his Queen's hit':
1,7, 8,2, and the result is the same. Add the date of ?It:
marriage, 1,8, 0,9, and still the total is 1848. S° 11Q,1to
Napoleon 111. He was elected Emperor ill 171:
Add to this number the sum of the figures composing
date of his birth, 1,8, 0,8, and the total is clearlY 1-86,;1.
Add the date of the Empress's birth, 1,8, 2,0, and
the total is 1869. The same is the result of adding t 1
date of their marriage, 1,8, 5, 3. The defect of this
genious calculation seems to be that matrimony 1133'1.,
much to do with it. The Tomahawk would be at a keel-
dealing with a bachelor.

THE UNITED STATES.
The advocates of financial honesty in the United State°
may well be encouraged by the success of their tdryttle.3
The Finance Bill, although it is not yet law, has pro he
a remarkable effect all over Europe. In England tra
announcement that the House of Representatives h 0
passed it brought about an immediate rise in Arneri:lld
bonds. The Senate then got the bill, and ad°l):,;
it in a still more perfect form. This more d;
sive action has caused a rise at Frankfort
ell
no less than 4 per cent., although the market No.'vf.
supplied. The transactions reached an immense arn°llo,l
" All kinds of American stock, even Central Pacific
way Mortgage bonds, were taken at rising prices to All,
amount offered." United States securities are now at
price never before reached.
The Indian difficulty is likely to receive, in part, el
unexpected solution. The Choctaws desire to be adrnit",,
to the Union as a new State. They assert that theY
thoroughlycivilised, prosperous, and enjoying a Republic,
form of government, similar to that of the State Adraill;
tration. 'They are one of the most powerful tribes-0' f
strong, and may yet flourish, whilst their belligera
brethren are becoming extinct.
