IIrkey.-It seems, from the latest articles Of
European intelligence, that it is considered
certain there will, at present, be no war be-
tween Russia and Turkey. The Turks, them
selves, having over-reached Alexander, have
lost all fear of being attacked by him, and
are directing all their forces against the
Greeks. Such is the result of the counsels of
the European triumvirate--who care more 10
prevent the example of a successful insurrec-
ton, than to preserve Greece from the rava-
ges Of the Barbarian.

PHILADELPHIA, APRIL Is, 1922.
I" You have doubtless heard that the celebra-
ted Methodist minister, Mr. Sommerfeld is in this
city. and has been preaching several times. went
to hear him on Sunday last and / declare to you
that never before felt in its full measure, the NIGH
ty power of eoquence. The discourses of this won-
derful man, are not formed upon the model Of ora ;
tors ancient or modern. They are not made up ac-
cordng to the prescriptions of rhetoricans of great
or lesser name; they owe nothing to the magnifi-
(cence of words, to the studcd graces of manner;
but they deeply imbued with the living spirit Of
thought and dependant for their influence alone
upon the omnpotence of truth and the irresistible
energy of genius. His gestures without affect
alton few, but fearless and appropriate. His words
spring free and spontaneous from his thougts and
these gush on with one continued flow from the
deep and unfang fountain Of spirit whose source
is in nature and Cod It'll difficult to characterize
his eloquence, for it is neither ord, sterile, nor
argumentative but happy combination of those
qualities which captivate the fancy. convince the
Judgment and convict the heart His sermons are
not ushered in by well worded exordlum, nor are
they closed by corresponding peroration. There
lis nothing prepared or artificial about them. They
fare the workings of an afAuent and vigorous mind,
keenly alive to the awful truths it inoulcates and
seeking the most direct and efficient means of en-
forcing and illustrating them. Hence he cannot be
called hguratve speaker, for he does not seek for
flowers and plucks them only when they obtrude
upon his path. Yet sometimes he breaks forth in.
Ito the most sublime and beautiful metaphors, trans.
ported out of himself and carried it were into the

Mr.. EDITOR
Permit me through the medium Of your paper
to express my perfect coincidence in sentiment with
a late writer in the Waterman, over the signature
of Clitus" So" That it is to be regretted that our
election for Borough officers have not received that
attention from many OF our citizens, which their
importance require" But while admit this, Il
would by no means conhne myself as he does, o
the present House and pour forth all my censure
on them believing as do, that their acts will by
no means suffer on being compared with their pre-.
decessors' fer several years past.
The council are charged by this writer with be.
ing too timid TO do their duty; at the same time he
says they are acting SO arbitrarily as to dive the
poor affrigbted counrymen from our markets and
reduce US TO state of partial want. Clitus may
reconcile, if he can, these opposites. They are
charged with laying the taxes too lows Ito gain po-
pularity J TO meet the current expenses when the
fact is, as understand, they will leave more than
three fourths, If not the whole OF the present years
taxes at the disposal of future House. They are
charged with filling up streets unnecessarily, which
are now to be reduced. Whether unnecessary or
not, the street (Kng) which | suppose is partcu-
lary alluded to, was petitioned for, that might be
regulated and the pavements laid I; and to regulate
the pavements, it became necessary first to do the
street. As to their having now to undo what is
done, the facts in the case these ;-the regua-
tors had fixed the street in about the situation it
now is, as to the height; but on subsequent regu-
lation they found the plan of dwelling or citing from
the Jersey woods, the old pan) so uncertain that
they could not make two regulations agree; they
therefore requested an instrument to be procured
which would enable them to come at some greater
certainty in their regulations This was procured
and on trial, they found that the old ground plan
was so incorrect as to be incapable of being carried
through without involving public and private pro-
rarty in In hall
cable in some places. Theycof course { and with
the concurrence of number of respectable and
intelligent citizens adopted ground plan capable
of being correctly and easily carried into effect
Out oil this measure arose the necessity of undong
what will perhaps amount to 8 100, whilst it saves
50or 100000; if this be FAULT, it is in depriv
ing the porters masons and laborers Of their work.
