CRoAKERs.-An eccentric lawyer named
Burgess, many years ago lived in New
England village, and became quite famous
for his "skeptical notions" Attending a
town meeting, after its adjournment he lin
gered among the groups of substantial far
mer deacons who composed it, and listened
to the prevailing conversation. The bad
weather, the fly, the rot, the drouth and the
wet were duly discussed, when some one
turned to Burgess and said
"How comes on your gardenPn
II never plant anything" replied Burgess,
with solemn face, II am afraid to even
put potato in the ground"
Its no wonder" groaned one of the most
eminently pious persons present; for q
man who does not believe in revealed relig-
ion could not expect to have his lahors
blessed
Il am not afraid of failing in my work. y
said Burgess, "but am afraid that agricul-
tural work will make me proiane. If | had
planted single potato what would have
been the result? Why, l should get up in
the morning. look about me, and growl 1T
is going to rain aud it will ruin my potatol
Then l should in dry weather say, "The
drouth will kill my potato; then l should
be unhappy because the rot might destroy
my potato: in fact gentlemen" continued
Burgess, in a solemn manner, II should be
afraid to do anything that would induce me
constantly to distrust Providence"
The retort was keenly felt by many pres
ent. and for months afterwards the farmers
with fear of Burgess before their eyes
talked of the blessings rather than the evils
attending their daily labor.

The Portland argus says, 1--WE have an
affectionate male teacher in high school for
young ladies in this city. One day roguish
maiden of sixteen summers broadly violated
some rule of the school. The teacher thought
it a plain case for discipline. He called her
to him. argued the case to her with great
eamestness, kissed her, and then asked her
if she was sorry. She said she was; and
thereupon her sin was forgiven. How great

Losses BY Wharf.-The returns Of losses
in the late war contain some facts that may
be pronounced almost unparalleled in the
history of the grand contests Of modern
times. For example, the number of Aus
trians made prisoners by the Prnssians is
1880 the number of Prussians made
prisoners by the Austrians is 81 The
killed, wounded and missing of the Austri-
ans foot up to about 10000 of the Prus-
slams, to not quite $4,000. Austrian armies
have always yielded immensely of prison
ers, but they outdd themselves in that way
last summer. Perhaps the campaign Of
Napoleon |. in 1905 was as fruitful of Aus
tran prisoners as the campaign of 1856, but
we are to bear in mind that, short as the
campaign of 1905 was, it was a long winded
affair when compared with that of 1866
The time in which work is done must al
ways be taken into account when its char
acter is considered and though Napoleon
/. made Il marvellous ally Of time, the Prus.
sian commanders of our day have got ahead
of him in history as timc-compellers. But
then they had railways and electric tele-
graphs to aid them, things undrcamed of in
his philosophy.

The Greek Christians and COmmO-
hnrp Gold shOrnMEh.

We read reports of a Russo~American
alliance and that in consequence of IT, Com
modore Goldsborough has granted the pro
lection of our flag to the revoted Greek
Christians of Gambia, who are said to nave
memorialized President johnson to denver
them from the Turkish yoke. Our Medi-
terranean squadron may be in the vicinity
of Gambia. Meantime, we hope TO see the
Tartar dynasty, which has reigned so long
at Constantinople, driven back into Asia.
The Turks are interlopers in Europe, en-
canped there for n season. 1t is n shame
70 Christendom that the Crescent still waves
over the Cross in Palestine, the birthplace
of our holy religion, and that semi-civiized
Asintics are allowed to domneer over
Christian Greeks. The lands, which were
the original cradles of art. poetry, philoso-
ply and religion, have been long enough
blasted by the pale, dying crescent of the
Osmanlie. The Turk was once respected
for his courage and hardihood. He is now
an ellete bgot of an anti-Christan creed.
The advent of the Gar at Constantnople.
is an event devoutly TO be prayed for.
America has aforetime extended helping
hand to Greece. and her fleet in the Medi-
terranean would doubtless interfere to pre-
vent actual persecution of the Christian is
landers who live under the Turkish yoke.
