Turkey and Greece.
The uneasy state of the relations between
Rurkey and Greece appeare to be about to
arrive at climax. A telegram from Constan-
ttnoule announces that the Porte has recalled
ite representative from Athens. According to
Nhe same advices, the insurrection, far from
being extinct is said to have revived with a.
creased yigor, while large number of .rash
volunteers are stated to have landed IN the
coast of Gambia. The counsels which tt 40 French

Although at nr It denied the fact is now positive
that the 90 Cernment of Roumania taking ad-
vantage o. the embarrassments OF the Porte
has der landed the evacuation of the fottresses
situs sed on the servian territory, still held by
TAlksh garrlsons under threats OF an invasion
of Bosnia; while the Servian people, held in
subiection to the Turkish nobility are only
TOO desirous to obtain their independence
As Servia has at her disposal an army of
one hundred thousand men, this menace is still
more serious to Turkey than the attitude of
Greece, who has neither army nor 1nances; and
the importance of the demand is so well under
stood at Vienna that the Austrian Government
modifying its ancient policy to the great disap.
pOintment of Turkey, has not hesitated to sup
port it. The Eastern question, indeed as pre-
sented in Turkey-and this is not one of its least
dangers-is closely allied with that of Hungary,
and consequently, concerns the very existence
OF the Empire of Austria. Like that country,
Hungary is divided into several natiOnalities
which, although interior in civilization to the
Magyars nevertheless desire to obtain their inde-
pendence Among those peoples the Croats and
seIvans are the most excitable, and the part
they played In 1s48 has already shown the inau-
ence they are capable of exercising on events.
In Hungary, even among the Magyars, opinions
are divided as to the conduct to be adopted
towards them, whilst the advanced liberal
party is inclined to accede to their desires.
The Deakists, and especially the ra-Conserva-
lives, take up more willingly towards them,
The Germans compliant, in the Empire of Austria.
ghe Cabinet Of Vienna watches the movement
with attention. and encourages it in order to find
a counterpoise to the demands Of the Diet Of
Pesth. Thus may be explained the policy at
present maintained by Austria at the Courts of
Constantinople and Belgrade, and our advices
from Vienna 90 so far as to say that the Aus
trian Government has made, as a condition ofits
intervention in favor OF Servia the entire Austen
lion of that country in the agitation of which
the military frontier, and other territories to
the north of the Danube and the Save, subject
10 Austrian authority, may become the scene.
The Great Painter Ingres.
Art in general has sustained a great loss in
Nhe person of one of its most ilustrious votaries
NJ Ingres. He was in very good health but
few days ago, but caught cold at night whilst
getting up to keep up his fire in his bedroom.
Acute bronchitis set in, and carried him otfin
few hours. The commencement of his career
was very arduous, and years elapsed before his
genius was fully appreciated by the public. Of
no artist of modern times can it more truly be
said 81 quGris mOnunlentLnt CTcl1nspice. He
was born at Montauban, and became the pupil
of David, the classic genius OF whom found IN
Ingres a magnificent development; but
it was chiefly from Raphael he sought to draw
inspiration. From that great master he derived
above all, of idealizing his subjects. In 1901
Ingres carried off the great prize given by the
Institute, and went to Rome, where he con-
Nnued to reside until the close OF his period
of study, and where he married. He received
the cross of the Legion of Honor in 1924, and
was appointed member of the Institute. Irgi-
tated by the criticism which continued to be
directed against him for years after he exhibited
his picture of Saint Symphonin in 1927, he left
France in 1882, and returned to Rome. When
he came back TO Paris he met with q most enthu
Rjastic welcome. At the Exhibition of 1885 the
greater number of the pictures painted by Ingres
were hung together in agallery especially allotted
30 them, so that the public could Judge at once
and apart from the ardent sympathies and an
tipathies excited by each production as it ap-
peared of the course Of the artists genius during
ffty years. At the exhibition be, together with
Eugene Delecroix, obtained the grand medal of
honor The elevation of Ingres to the Senate
in 1862 crowned long career devoted to the
cultivation of all that is purest and most worthy

Paris Italian Opera.
The subscribers OF the opera in the Sale de
PentadoOr, begin to find that it is quite pos
sible to pass very delightful evening au,
RGtiens, even when the little Dtod Patti is no
on the stage. Madame Lagrua is a charming

the place of the great Grisi. Coldly receives
at first, she has now proved to the PaIlsian
that she is q most consummate dTtiste. Like al
