is impossible TO exaggerate the cOnse-
quences of such a position in the hands Of
two such powers, but we will venture to
say that, largely as the Crusades bore on
the interest of humanity and the curse of
the world, the Anglo-French ascendancyin
Black Sea, the Esian, the Mediterranean,
and the East is pregnant with far greater
consequences. Turkey, Asia Minor,
Egypt, Africa, Persia, ARABIA, Central
Asia. and many other countries now
crushed by Turkish apathy, menaced by
Russian ambition, or lying in their own
ancient b~arbarism, will be opened to the
civilizing and ~softening influences of the
West.
Very possibly we shall live 10 see the
realization of the dream that even sober
men have INDUCED in-the replenishment
of the depopulated countries of Asia with
copious migrations from Western Europe.
1t cannot be imagined but that the religion
of the West will 20 along with the power

hard, to contend with storm famine and
disaster-with impregnable forts and in

hands and grasp the high object of cur
ambition. No other result was 10 be ex-

disasters any reason to despair of a just

THE WOUNDED.

BE-: he wounded. Eor two DAYS they
had lain Were the hand and the ball had
felled them. There were very few, il is
true, but all u searching had not discov-
cred the secrets of that blood-stained hill
side, and it was towards noon to-day ere
the last of our soldiers had been found in
his lair and carried 10 the hospital. But
the Russians, grooming and palpitating as
they lay around, were far more numer-
GUS. Some Of these were placed together
in heaps, that they might be more readily
removed. Others glared on you from the
bushes with the ferociiy of wild beasts as
they Rugged their wounds. Some i'm
plored, in an unknown tongue, but in ac-
cents not TO be mistaken, wafer or succor,
holding out their mutilated and shattered
limbs, or pointing to the track of the LAGER
ating ball. The %sullen, angry scowl of
these men was fearful. Fanaticism and
immortal hate spoke through their angry
~eyeballs, and he who gazed upon them in
pity and compassion could at least fun-
willingly understand why these men, in
their savage passion, kill the wounded,
and fire on the conqueror who, in his gen.
erous humanity, had aided them as he
passed. 1t was a relief to see that their
arms were broken-that their cartridges
were lying in open heaps on the ground.

AT particular spots you see a party Of
men busy at work. Groups of them are
digging away along the hillside, at the
distance of forty or fifty yards apart. Go
over and you will find them around 4
.yawnine trench, thirty feet in length by
twenty in breadth and six in depth, at the
at the bottom of which, in every %conceiv-
able attitude, lie packed together with
exceeding art, some thirty or forty
corpSeS. The grave diggers stand chat
ting on the mounds by the sides waiting
for the arrival of some bearers to complete
the number ofthe dead. Frenchmen with
l~itters, are also busy locking out for their
dead and wounded, and in sharing the
sad labors of the day. AT last the num-
Der in the trench is completed. The
bodies lie as closely as they can be pack
ed. Some of them have appraised arms,
in the attitude of taking aim; their legs
stick up through the mould as it is thrown
upon them others are bent and twisted
into shapes ike fantoccini. Inch after
inch the earth rises upon them, and they
are left " alone in their glory" No, not
