the Advocate who says: 1--WE think

party we have no fear to enter into
mortal combat in battle Of mere

his Judgment upon no less authority

A correspondent Of the 1.ondo

Morning Chronicle thus describes the
appearance of Constantinorle:
1.-The town is crowded with Euro
peans the hotel keepers are e1tor-
tionate, in their charges, and lodgings
of decent cleanliness are hardly to be
had. The high rent and narrow con-
strucion of the Christian houses are
due to cause which should no longer
exist. Land within the limits Of Pera,
and in certain spots on the Bosphorus,
is as dear as in London. Narrow
streets and close smelling passages
impede circulation and iniure health.
The cause of all this is that the GUAR
ter assigned to christians may not be
extended and while in the Turkish
districts land is almost worthless, and
wooden huts cover some Of the finest
positions about Stamboul, the Euro
pean residents are obliged to content
themselves with portion of the soil
totally inadequate to their wants. The
great increase in wealth and numbers
of the christian residents should bring
this barbarous exclusivcncss to an end,
and allow industry and enterprise free
scope to improve the capital. Pera
has, indeed, to some extent eucroached
on Tophaneh within the memory of
man, but double its extent would be
hardly sufficient to accommodate such
a population in an airy and well-bullt
town"
A REMARKABLE MAN.-At a tenn

about six years ago, Col. Lemanowsky
who had been twenty three years in
the armies Of Napoleon Bonaparte,
addressed the meeting He arose be-
fore the audience, tall erect and vigor-
Gus, with glow Of health upon his
cheek, and said:

ties. have fourteen wounds on my body,
have lived thirty days on horse flesh,
with the bark Of trees for my bread,

shoes or stockings on my feet and only

chief of the Medical staff of the French
Army, has stated as a fact, that the
5000 survivors, who had safely re-
turned from Egypt, were all of them
men who had abstained from ardent
spirits.

A BEAUTIFUL CoNcElr.-Some au-
thor, we remember not who, informs
us how we became indebted for the
red rose. They were all of pure and
spotless white when in Eden they first
spread out their leaves to the morning
sunlight of creation. Eve, as she
gazed upon the tintloss gem, could
not suppress her admiration of its
beauty, but stopped down and imprint
sd Il warm kiss on its snowy bosom
The rose stole the scarlet tinge from
her velvet lip, and yet wears it.
