Moslem Fana,ietsm. ---rhe Turks.


A Constantinople correspondent of the Bos-
ton Traveller under date of October 9th, pro.
nounces the statements that have obtained cur
rency in this country in regard to the danger Of
a general rising of the Turks against the Chris
TINS, to be greatly exaggerated, though in iso-
lated localities fanatical spirit has exhibited
itself No danger is felt by the Christians at
Constantinople. The writer says, the fact is,
the Turks are dispirited, and they have occasion
to be- In European Turkey, especially, includ-
ing of course ConstantinOple, they stand on
very precarious ground. Out Of fifteen or six
teen millions of inhabitants, not more than four
and half millions are even nominal Mussul-
men, and of these not more than one and half
millions are real Osmanli Turks, the rest being
of Christian origin"
The foundation of an English Church was
publicly laid by Lord Stratford in the very
midst of the Turkish quarter of Pera in Octo-
Der, the site closely surrounded by the dwell
ings of the Turks and in the very shadow of
mosque, and without the slightest molestation.
The United States ships of-war Wabash and
Macedonian have sailed from Constantinople for
Beirut and Jaffa to secure the punishment of
the miscreants who committed the outrage upon
the Dickson family, two of the culprits being
men of influence among the wild tribes Of the
country Four out of the five are in prison, two
of them having confessed and two having Ieen
proved guilty of the crime but without the
show of force on the part of the United States
it was considered doubtful whether any of them
would be hung.

The Acquittal of Cole.

The case of Cole for the murder of his wife,
was submitted to the Jury al P NJ. Satur-
day, and at A. NJ. Sunday, they returned
verdict of mot guilty" The jury stood at
first, four for conviction and eight for acquittal
The structures and comments of our city con-
Courts and Juries in this case have been un-
called for and in bad taste and spirit. Cole
has been twice tried by jury Of his peers in
conformity with the laws of the Stately iu-
rors who are good citizens, and who have no
doubt acted on their oath and good conscience.
In Geauga, where the alleged crime was commit
ted, the jury failed to agree. To remove the
case beyond prejudice of locality, the venue
was changed to Ashtabua An intelligent
jury after a full investigation, acquitted the
prisoner. 1t is to be presumed that the ver-
dict is in accordance with the law and the evi-
dence If Cole be guilty, the State failed to
make out a case The fault was not in the
Jury but in the evidence, and indiscriminate
eensure of the twelve men composing it and Of
the Court. only serves to bring the trial by
jury, that palladium of every mans rights,
and the Judiciary of our State, into disrepute
and contempt
That the evidence against Cole was not con
elusive we have the assurance of one of the
ablest, soundest, and most candid lawyers in the
State. who was engaged in the defence When
the testimony in the case was concluded be
felt certain of the acquittal of the prisoner, as
the evidence was such that the jury would
have to ',jump at verdict" The universal rule
is, that case, especially of murder, must be
proven beyond reasonable doubt.

We regret that Mr.. DoDeE has resigned his
position in the Board of Appeal, as he was one
of the most efficient and liberal men connected
with the Patent Office Department, and one in
whom the inventor always found a true friend.
Inventors understand who fills the position Of
an Examiner, or in the Board, with most credit
to the Department and the public The position
of an Examiner is sometimes very trying one,
but it is his duty to aid and assist the inventor
as far as practicable to correct conclusions, in
stead of turning his back upon him with cold
indifference or neglect.
Mr. CoUEs is one of those gentlemen whose
expanded mind and courteous demeanor happily
fit him for position in the Board, or as Chief
Examiner. All inventors who are brought in
official connection with him, fully appreciate
his experience and ability, and we know that
his liberal and candid course has won for him
an enviable reputation among inventors and
with the public 1t would be serving the best
interests of the public and of the Patent Office
Department if Mr. COUEs was appointed to a
Chief Examinership or to a position in the
Board, and in hope that Comr. Holt will show
the same good sense and disc. .imination in Sc
curing this appointment of Mr.. CoUEs, that he
has done in other instances.

The GoULDY TRAGEDY-CoEDITIoN OF THE
FAMLY.-It is said that Mrs. Gouldy has sofar
recovered from her wounds as to be consideed
out of danger. Mr.. Gouldy is also in fair way
for recovery. One of the wounds on his head
has entirely healed but the others are still very
sore The brain protrudes to the size of wal
nut, but the attending physicians confidently
assert that he will finally be restored to health
His side has not yet recovered from the psralyt-
ic shock consequent upon the affection of the
brain. The galvanie battery is to be applied
as soon as the health of the patient will permit
of the suicide of his son. Young Nathaniel
is convaleseent, being able to sit up in bed and
converse. CHARLES is also better, but makes
slow progress. The servant girl, Murphy, is
still in the New York Hospital, where every at
tentlon is paid to her. The Doctors believe she

bringing the bones from Hartford to this city
himself
This extraordinary determination, which we
believe has no parallel in ghostolOgy, ancient OF
modern, it is alleged is being carried out Ihe
very next day after it was announced bone
dropped on the sidewalk in front of the doctors
near their house and since that time bone
after bone has been moved, sometimes dropping
from the ceiling, and sometimes upon the walk
On the 18th of May the ghost did an unusual
good days work. As the doctors were crossing
Broadway, near Thirteenth street, at O'Clock
P. NJ, bone dropped at their feet, and at 3
O'Clock the same afternoon another encountered
them on Fourteenth street, both being portions
of the spinal column.
The ghost, whose body has been thus cut up
and moved, does not, however, claim the exclu-
sive credit of the removal. With the fairness
which we trust will ever characterize his pro
ceedings, he acknowledges with gratitude the
assistance of other ghosts, who have kindly
consented to help him to do tie job; but what
compensation he gives for their services is moi
stated
The ghost commenced picking himself UP
some time in spring. Whether he is yet done
is not stated, but the Telegraph of this week
brings additional testimony, in the shape of al
anonymous statement, (regarded as conclusive
by many spiritualists,j the substance of which
is contained in the following paragraph;
On the Sd of last June DR.. Rodman held ;
! seance at house he was visiting. When tht
circle was over accompanied him down stairs
on our way down, my spectacle case, which haC
been missed during the evening, was thrown
over my shoulder. He picked it up, and wal
holding it with both his hands, conversing will
me about its disappearance. While thus en-
gagged, standing facing each other, with ful
] blaze of gaslight shining on US, the front doc
I closed, and no other means of egress or ingres
being near, something came dropping down, a
if from the ceiling, and fell between US. o.

STEAM ON ONO CANALs.-A model of pro.

Public Works at Columbus, and application has
been made for permission to construct and run
a line of steamboats, on the Ohio Canals They
ask the privilege of running at the rate of two
miles an hour, which would be about double the
speed gained by horses including stoppages =
The wheels are to be at the stern and entirely

The NOrwaIk CaIamity--Damps in Wells

The NOrvEaIk CaIamity.sDamps in Wells.
The NorwaIk Reflector gives the particulars
of the sad calamity by which two sons of Mr.
Mckinley lost their lives in well. 1t was 5S
feet deep, 8 feet diameter at the bottom, Is
inches at the top, and had been finished and
cleaned out only few days previous, the boys
having been down into it frequently without ex-
periencing any i'll effects. After the boys were
los. q candle was let down and went out within
eight feet of the top No well should be en-
tered without first using this test. If the can
die is extinguished, life is unsafe in the atmos-
phere. The Reflector thus describes the efforts
tofree the well from the fatal gas:
Attempts we're made in various ways to ex-
pel OF neutralize the foul gas, but without sue
cess. Water was thrown into the well pow
der was let down in vessel and exploded by
pouring Goals of fire down upon it rosin, ig-
nited bv means of red hot iron; waste and balls
of candle wicking saturated with turPentine and
other combustibe substances, were set on FIRE
and lowered into the well While these and
other means of similar character were being
employed to expel the deadly vapor, the fire
engine was taken TO the spot the hose lowered
to the bottom of the WELL and the brakes set in
motion, hoping thus to introduce sufficient pure
air to overcome the clamps" But it all would
not do. Every method that seemed to promise
a hope of success was tried in vain. We be-

ways, to purify the atmosphere in the well

recovered.

SPIRIFUALoPATHY-The is new school OF
medicine. The Rev. Mr.. Pierpont being i'll, and
getting no relief from his mundane physician,
applied to his old doctor, who was dead, and in
due time received a prescription that cured him.
The Medical Society should look to this. The
doctors already dead cannot be prevented from
this unprofessional interference with the pa
tients of their surviving brethren but the liv-
ing might be bound by new rules which should
apply after their decease. This thing, if allow
