THE New KING OF GREEcE-The Greeks,
not being able to get for their king brother
ofthe heir apparent Of the British crown, have
done the next best thing-they have got his
brctherin-law. They have chosen the young
er brother of the Princess of Wales, the Sec
ond son of Prince Christian of Denmark. 1t
is understood that the great powers do not
object to the arrangement. The baptisma1
name of the king elect is Christian William
Ferdinand Adolphe George, and it is stated
that he is to reign under the title of " George
the First, King of the Greeks" He was
born December "a, 1S45, so that his age is
between Is and l9 years. He has been
cadet in the Danish navy. 1t was good
thing for the family of Prince Christian of
Denmark when the Prince of Wales fell in
love with his daughter. This little affair of
the heart exalted and magnifed all the royal
family ofthe little kingdom, and it has doubt
less led to the choice just made by the Greeks.
A Scandinavian youth would not be chosen
for the Hellenic throne except for strong po-
litical reasons, and of course it will be ex-
pected that in the future, when Albert Ed
ward is King of Great Britain, he will be.a
good friend to the nation which has his wife's
brother for king philadelphia Bulletin.

New Volcano IN MExIco.-A letter from
Mr.. John Xantus, United States Counsnl at
Manzailla, dated Colinia, March 18th, and
directed to the Smithsonian Institute, states
that new volcano broke forth the previous
day only six leagues from town. The erup-
ton came so suddenly and was so violent
that the Ameria river was filled up by bar.
ricade of elected sand mud, and stones to a
height of over one hundred feet. The river
of course was stopped from coming down,
and it is said that north of the barricade the
river is running back and inundating the
forest for leagues. The volcano broke out in
the top of hill only about one hundred and
fifty feet high above the level of the Armeria
river, but was said to be growing alarmingly
every hour. For the previous three days
there had been many earthquake.

NUMBER 10.
The Exodus from ireland.

English papers are lashing themselves into
an unseemly fury on account of the large
male emigration this year from Ireland to
the United States. This is the first time
since 1872 that the British have complained
in this regard and there seems to be this
analogy between the exodus of the two peri
ods: In 1912, the United States were en-
gagged in war with great Britain, and in 1868
the United States are engaged in war with
domestic foe, whom Great Britain has en-
couraged and assisted, for the purpose of
rending our country into fragments. In both
instances the exodus is opposed on selfish
grounds; but we do not remember that dur.
ing the long lapse between tia two periods
Great Britain, through her Tory journals,
ever complained of the constant stream of en-
igrants leaving their devoted island to escape
the famine which English oppression had
brought about. Daring that period she
adopted policy which peopled every por-
Famine has again visited Ireland; the voice
of distress arises from every hamlet, and has
been heard by the relatives and friends of
the sufferers in the United States. These are
renting TO them the means of escape but,
as if their cup of bitterness were not yet too
full, the British Government is taking steps
to compel this unhappy people to 90 through
all the pangs of starvation. The policy seems
to be the extirpation of the Irish people-the
blotting out of the race, by process so cru.
el, so fiendish, that the world stands aghast
at it. 1t is pretended that the extraordinary
emigration, this year, is the result of the in
trigues of United States agents sent to Ire
land for the purpose of recruiting our Uaion
armies from among that gallant people. I'VE
would require better testimony than the say.
so of Tory Journal to believe this assertion.
But the object the British Press will doubt
less be accomplished. and an embargo be
placed upon Irish emigration, under the pre-.
text that the Foreign Enlistment Act is be-
ing violated. We can imagine of nothing
more disabolical than this attempt to subject
a whole people to starvation for the purpose
of rendering itcertain that none ofthem may,
by any possible contingency, assist in des
troying the fixed American policy of Great
Britain. Well may Irshmen in the United
States hate with an unquenching hatred the
country which could thus deliberately set
about to murder, By slow and agonizing
process, their friends and relatives at home.
What an element of strength will the memo
ry of so gigantic a wrong, heaped on other
wrongs mountain high, give to the United
States in the event of war with Great Bri.
tain Perhaps the day is not far distant
when that resistless element will be enabled
to execute the most exalted act of retributive
justice recorded in the worlds history

BoHE MANURE.-Save all the bones you
can lay hold of. When you get Quantity
together, pat them in kettle, and cover
them with strong ley. If the weather is
cold, warm occasionally for a few days.
Then look. You will find all your hard
bones soft pulpy mass Here you have
precious stuff. Dilute this and you will have
a liquid manure that will produce growth
that is almost miracle And as many
buckets of water to one of the ley and soft
mass of bones you like; the less water
the less labor; or mix it with muck, and the
muck will be manure. By all MEANS save
your bones if no other way, and you are
determined to be careless, plow them under.
There is wealth of manure of the best
quality in bones and carcasses 1T

CURE FOR CHRONIC DEsENrERY.-To one
ounce of Venus turpentine any other clear,
semi:liquid turpentine will do-add one ounce
of laudahum CT mix With the turpentine a
small Quantity of pulverized opium, then
take as much wheat -four as will make of the
mass stiff dough if opium is used, water
may be added, ard when thoroughly worked
together, divide into pills Of common size.
For dose, take pill just before eating, and
at any other time during the day when the
disease produces gripping pain. They should
be carried in box in the pocket so as to be
taken when required. The opium at once
alleys irratation and the turpentine not only
heals the ulcers, but acts as a diuretic, re-
lieving by this action the infamed part on
the principle that blister produces counter
irritation.
As general thing this medicine will pro-
dace relief at once-that is, Immediately
but from so three weeks will be required to
effect cure The dist should be plain and
nourishing, and all spirituous ard fermented
liquors are TO be avoided as so much poison.

INsuRREcTIoN AS WAR WEAPoN.-The
London army and Nary Gazette, edited by
DIR. Russell, considers the rebel threat TO
shoot down captured officers of negro regi
ments proof that Americans do not under
stand the feelings of European nations. 1t
adds: ~ '''s-
" The uprising of a portion of an enemy's
subjects, inferior or superior in race, is a de-
sirable object to effect-itis quite a legitimate
of war. If Great Britain were engaged in a
war with France, nothing would be more
natural than for our enemy to excite Hindoo,
Aussulman, or Arab to revolt No rule of
warfare would permit US to treat officers en-
gagged in that service otherwise than as men
conducting legitimate operation. 1t is a
necessary evil of a war, in which survile in
surrection may be invoked By an invader, to
increase the ordinary horrors and calamities
of hostile occupation. When some years ago
Southern statesmen, insolent and aggressive,
threatened this country with war, it was re-
marked over and over again, in British jour-
mails, that the dispatch Of some of our West
Indian regiments to Louisiana or the Carroll
mas might be one of the most formidable agen-
cies to which even our vast belligerent pow
er could resort Our Southern friends must
carry the whole weight of slavery on their
shoulders. in peace or in war. Seryile insur-
rection would be dreadful evil. 1t would
be repetition of the Indian revolt of 1851.
An inferior race would rise against their
masters But it is an accident and contin-
gent of any war, in which State of slave
holders engages. The Officers who develop
it are as free from any act of vengence or re-
taliation as those who fight on the decks of
their ships or in the lines Of their regiments, ;,
