five lrave propensity in the world TO which
we are utterly subservient, it is that OF looking
upon horned cattle. There is something in the
appearance of the meditative OK and the con-
templatlve COW, not to mention the pugnaclous
bull, which appeals directly to our sensibilities,
and we sometimes fear that we may he 4 de-
scendant from some Egyptian worshipper of
Apis, inheritng with his blond some portion of
his idolatrous disposition. The best friend we
have in the world has a head like bull, stout,
and shaggy: we dJie upon him TO excess, by
cur honor, and we are tempted to say, with
hSnsst Taetk Is Fkts As lave hin we have drunk
medicines while, in truth, the secret lies in
his fascinating appearance. Yielding to our con-
stitutional fraity, we wandered out to Brighton
to examine the cornuted quadrupedS and such
a collection has never been witnessed since the
time of Ptolemy. There was one great white
OK, fourteen or fifteen feet high fat as an alder
man and far more sagacious, that completely
absorbed our admiration. Who owns that OK !?
We would rather call him ours, than sit upon
the throne of Charles Capet. There were two
black bulls in pen together, glorious fellows,
with eyes like lamps, and tails like the concu-
sion of late horticultural address, long, thick
and heavy, and fiji to lash the sides Of the horses
oi the Sun; farther on stood tremendous fel-
low, heaying and rolling under press of fat,
and poking his short horns through the bars at
long human specimen from 90 down east
Here we could go no further; our sensibilities
gave way, and we sat down by an oyster bench
and wept. Recovering, by great effort, we
passed unconsciously by the long row of Dish
Ieys and Merinoes, and found oursef among
the lin pedlars. These accomplished gentle
men were knocking down tin lanthorns at a
great sacrifice, equalled only By the loss cxpe-
rienced by an adjacent vender of almanacs,
who suffered a number OF those standard works
10 pass into other, hands at the low price of
fcur cents each. On we pushed, and came in
contact with scoundre, enlicing some young
boys to venture their coppers at a gambling
table. The rascal ought TO have been thrown
to the bulls. Proceeding up the hill, we en-.
tered the hall of exhibition, and found rather a
meagre collection; could not learn the cause,
but supposed there were no cloths to spare for
exhibition; our manufacturers now sell faster
than they can weave-which circumstance goes
to prove the decline of Boston! We next walk
ed down to the dining room, calculating upon
invitations but the landlord limited something
about half dollar, at which we made precipi-
tate retreat into town, Eliminating upon the
extraordinary grasping propensity of the pre-
sent generation.-B0StOa Comm eRtGt0r.

We learn from respectable gentleman, re-
Gently arrived from St. Petersburg, aud who
lodged in the same house with this e1traOrdi-
nary Minister from the United States, that the
account of this eccentric character, Published

that his conduct in every situation has been
such, as to astonish and disgust even those
who were somewhat preparcdto see lusus
nature.
1t seems that, contrary to the advice of the
Court Tailor, he determined to appear before
the Emperor in his usual dress, viz: blue
coat, buff walstcOat, buckskin brooches, and
whte-top boots, with the addition of large
dragoons sword attached to broad white belt ,
drawn tight around the body, and over the
coat. When presented, the Emperor accosted
him in French, in which language our buck
skin hero not being very fluent, was for once
in his life put to the nonplus," Whether
sensation of fear, or reverence, or a mistaken
notion of propriety gave the impulse, we are
unable to say, but the fact is, that the Ambas-
sador extraordinary and Minister plonipotenti-

BELGRADE. Aur. 81

BELGRADE, Aug. ".
MASSACRE OF THE ALBANIAN CHIEFS. The
Grand Vizier, having arrived at Bitoglia, and
finding that the chance was bad of overcoming
the insurgent Albanians by force, had recourse
to perfidlous stratagem. He sent messages
TO all the Albanian Chiefs, telling them that he
had come to listen to their demands, and invit-
ed them to an audience. great number of
them accordingly set out for Bitoglia, accom-
panied, by way of precaution, by an escort of
5000 men. The Grand Vizier gave the Chiefs
an audience, and after hearing their demands,
viz. 10000 purses, or $4,000, 900 Turkish pias-
tres, declared that notwithstanding the embar-
rasments of the government on account of the
late war, he would find means to satisfy them
He only requested that they would remain in
the city for a few days, until the arrival of the
sums placed in his hands by the Porte, which he
said were already on the way. II aving thus
gained their confidence, he invited them, after
they had been four days in the town, to witness
review OF his troops, about $4,000 strong.
They accordingly attended, accompanied by an
escort OF only 400 men. After noticing the
evolutions for some time, they found themselves
suddenly surrounded by the Turkish troops.
and aoerc naSSacred to the last man. The re-
malnder of the 5000, who had been left without
the city, were next marched against by the
Turks, and Immediately bctook the mselyes to
flight. But as the Grand Vzier had caused
the roads to be previously occupied, it is prob
able that but very small number -ofthe Alba
mans escaped the sword.

From the Providence Journal.
LETTER FROM BRUSSELS.

The following is an extract from letter
written to a gentleman in this town, by DR.. s..
G.. Hone, dated at Brussels, Sept. Sth, 1880.
He has become extensively known to the pup
lie by the letters which he wrote from Greece.
He was in Paris in July, at the rise of the peo-
pie in opposition to tyranny, in favor of civil
liberty And now at Brussels, he is present to
witness the brave and heroic exertions of the
oppressed Belgans, in defence of their liberties
and unalienable rights
" You will consider me genuine amateur of
revolution, when, after writing you from the
centre of the late one effected in France, now
date from the centre of the actually progress
ing one in the Netherlands.
You will perceive by the public prints hat
is the state of things here All Belgium in
arms, with the complete possession of the
country stands in a cool and dignilied, but de-
termined attitude, and demands Of her King
complete political, legislative, and executive
separation from Holland protesting and really
feeling an attachment to the present dynasty
agreeing to be governed by the King or his
son, but to be governed separately from Hol-
land. They are not seeking for union with
France, nor to overthrow the dynasty, but to
erect Belgium into separate kingdom.
The grounds of their complaints are many,
and most just The reasons for a separation
are Notwithstanding of taxation inc
quality Of representation disgracelul prefer
ence given to the Dutch in all appointments
denial of the principle of ministerial response
bllIty, and maintenance of the principle of the
personal inviolability of the King; difference
OF language; difference of interests difference
of religion, and entire difference in feelings
These are the charges brought against the
Government, and the reasons adduced by the
Belgians for demanding a separation from Hol-
land. Were to dwell on them, in detail, |
could, from almost any one of them, make out
a cause sufficient for discomfort and resistance.
Belgium, with four millions, is represented by
55 Deputies to the Etats Generaux while
Holland, with less than two millions, has the
same number. Nineteen twentieths the pub
lie officers are Dutch; Belgium helps pay the
interest of the debts of Holland, contracted be-
fore the union she pays her part for public
works; for colonial expenses, of which Holland
reaps almost the sole benefit; and Government
has been perssting in the absurd attempt of
forcing the Belgians to speak Dutch, Ian
gHage they hate as they do Dutchman-it is
made essential to almost every office of profit
or trust. But need not dwell on these known
! subjects the fact is, the country is on the
eve of a dreadful civil war, which will termin-
ate God only knows how. The King, good
but stubborn man, can prevent it all by word
but that word, / fear he will rather die than
pronounce. This city is barricadoed, and eight
thousand citizens are in arms, waiting an at.
tack"
