Over the noisy keys

OrYhat I was dreaming then;
And struck one chord OF music
Ike tho sound of great Amen.
It flooded the crimson twilight
Like the close of an angels psalm,
And it lay on my fevered spirit
With touch Of infinite calm.

It quieted pam and sorrow,
Like love overcoming strife;
It seemed the harmonious echo

It linked all perplexed meanings
Into one perfect peace.

Turkey would seem to bo in a bad lay. A cor
respondent writing from Constantinople to tho
New York Tribune says: ga careful statement Of
tho debt OF Turkey has just been made from trus!-
worthy da O. which is OF interest. 1t appears that
the funded debt Of ESQ., 142 270, the charge
upon which, including interest and sinking fund,
is about s5,000, ,OGO. Thu funded home debt,
money borrowed in Galata, and annuities costs
about f50O 900 year. This charge OF e, SOC, 600
does not include the interest guaranteed to two OF
three railroads, nor interest, generally 25 per
cent, paid on short loans from time to time;
ESQ, ,000, 600 would perhaps cover all the charges
for debt. The largest revenue ever secured fell
short Of f14 600, and OF this f5 0O0 900
ex1ended in the provinces, and never reached
Constantnople at oil. This leaves f3,0OO, 900
only for the current expenses Of the Govern
ment, and cf this sum tho Sultan receives for
private expenses e. 0S5 400. Probably he actually
receives more than this, but this amount is
acknowledged. This leaves less than e. OOO 900 to
supply the civil service, in which there are 10 600
employes, the army and the navy, to pay any such
extra bills as that for putting down tho insurrcc
tion in Crete. Tho average annual deficit for
twelve wears past has been about s5, 900 OOO Now,
what can Turkey do? No more foreign loans can
be raised. No money can bc borrowed in The
country except for few mcnt1s at ruinous rates
the taxes cannot be increased ;they are already so
heavy as to crush tho people. There are two pos
able remedies, one reform of tho expenditure,
the other, andsmost important, q new and honest
method, OF collecting the taxes: Tho amount
actually by thcpcople is not less, probably il
il more than sSO, ,0O0, 600; but more than half Of
this neysf reaches the Imperial treasury. Are these
reforms possible2 Idoubt it"
