Insurrection in Bulgaria.

The cable brings news of an instruction
in Bulgaria. 1t had been agitated during
the greater part of the year. Russian in
auence is supposed to have had good deal
to do with it. Preparation had been made
under disadvantages and with much secrecy.
The laborers and others joining in the
movement went off singly or in couples to
the place Of rendezvous, across the Danube.
On the 23d of July the Turkish authorities
became aware that the plan was approach
ing towards overt acts, and begun to collect
troops on the border. A few weeks since the
Cabinet in Constantinople acknowledged an
insurrection in Bulgaria, and ordered rein
forcements to march to suppress it.
A telegram from Belgrade, dated 10th of
September, announces that battle had
been fought between the Turks and the in
surgents, in which the former were victori-
Gus. The engagement took place near Phil
lippohel. The insurgents made the attack.
The Turks were fortified. The battle was
severe. Over 200 Turks we're killed while
defending one Of the forts assaulted. The
loss Of the Insurgents was not known. They
had retreated to the Balkan mountains,
Turkey will have yet to surrender these
European provinces of hers. They are in
a great degree Christian, and they cover an
immense territory, including some of the
most eligible portions of Europe for health,
comfort, and production. The seeds of dis
content with Turkish rule are extensively
sown amongst them. And Russia has been
secretly and assiduously cultivating the
crop. Indeed, the Turkish possessions in
Europe are involved in the great Eastern
question, which cannot be put down, but
persistently plaques the European Cabinets
with eVer-recurring alarm and apprehen-
sion. 1t is no doubt an unpleasant task of
those Cabinets to bolster up the Turk in
Europe. 1t must be painful to their re-
igious feeling, If they have any, as well as
offensive to their prejudice of race. Never
theless the great fear Of the Russian Bear
swallows up all these feelings, and they
stand by the Turks.
The day will come when Bulgaria, Rou-
malta, Albania, servia, Macedonia, Bosnia,
and indeed all the provinces in Europe now
ruled by the Turk, will be free. The pre-
JUDGES of religion and Of race will continue
to exert their influence and finally complete
the work, The principle Of "homogeneity
OF people," which is highly approved by the
Leading powers when its application suits
their interest, and is very much opposed by
them when It does not, will triumph in Eu.
ropean Turkey.

Scio or ChioS.

The item relating to the attempt OF the
people of this famous isle to celebrate the
anniversary of the birth of the heir to the
throne of Greece, and it's suppression by
the Turkish authority, is quite interesting
The Turks regarded the movement as re-
bellious, and not only suppressed it but
arrested many persons engaged IN 1t.
Among the arrested, according to the tele-
gram, was Greek attache to the American
consulate. Commodore FARRAGUT petit
toned for his release without success.
scio, as it is called in modern parlance,
though the cable renders it " Chios us
the most famed isle of the Grecian archi-
pelago, and therefore this piece of news is
peculiarly interesting. Among the places
which claimed to bethe birthplace of HOMER,
it is considered as having presented the
strongest proofs. The inhabitants of the isle
were amongst the most intrepid and brave
of the Greek islanders, and for some time
held the empire of the sea. Not in
Guided in any Of the States of Greece, 1t
took part alternately with the Lacce-
demonians and the Athenians. They were
the allies of Rome in the war with MITHRI-
DATES, Joined the revolt of the lonlan
isles against Persia, afterwards came under
the dominion of the Genoese, and finally
we're conquered by the Turks in the six
teenth century.
The Chions were very superior people.
While their isle was a part of the Greek
Confederation they are thus described by
milford: Moderate in prosperity, blame
"less towards their neighbors, and using
their increasing wealth and power for no
"purpose of ambition, but directing their
"politics merely to secure the happiness
"they enjoyed" A public policy and ma
tional virtue which might be emulated
greatly to their advantage by the most
famed nations of these days, and especi-
ally by the Government Of the United
States, despite its boosted liberaity and
justice.
The movement among the inhabitants Of
this interesting island is but another addi-
ton to the numerous indications Of the i'm
patience of the eastern Europeans of Turk
ish rule and their loathing of Turks and
Mohammedanism The tide of rebellion has
been increasing for many years, and will
ere long sweep over all opposition, and bear
the Turks from Europe.

OF course as the grape culture advances
there will be markets nearer home. Inc

extensively, and the demand for that Pur-
pose will keep full pace with capacity ior
production in the State.
The success of Messrs. RIBBLE q HANS
BRoUGH will afford great encouragement 10
the culture of the vine. The addition OF
this branch of tillage to the rural pursuits
in Virginia will add largely to the wealth
of the State, and assist greatly to insure the
tiller Of the soil against disaster from un-
toward seasons. With variety Of crops
there can be no such thing as Q total fall

and the farmer cannot be deprived Of all
the results of his industry, as he has been
sometimes when he hazarded oil upon g

A SIMPLEToN.-FoRNEY quotes the fol-
lowing section of the Georgia Constitution
to prove that the members of the Legisla-
ture who voted to exclude negroes from
juries were guilty of perjury:
"2. The General Assembly shall pro-
vide by law for the selection of upright and
intelligent persons to serve as jurors. There
shall be no distinction between the classes
of persons who compose grand and petit
juries."
The classes that compose both grand and
petit iuries will be white; so that there
will be no distinction.

"The Radical speakers in the South, in
addressing the negroes at political meet
ings, advise and urge them to 60 TO the polls
in November armed to the teeth What
are they to do with arms at the pollsY Pray
what plot have the Radicals on foot for

Yes, what are these negroes, who are un-
able either to restrain themselves or to take
care of themselves, to do with arms at the

Southern Union men are only negroes.

proceedings in the South are mere proceed
lngs OF negroes, directed by proaigate
whites, scalawags, and oarpet-baggers.
Those carpet-baggers and scalawags are
mostly very ignorant people, and, with
few exceptions, are indescribably corrupt.
They have yet sense enough to know that
aparty resting wholly upon barbarism and
fraud cannot endure; but having no cha
rscter and no property, they risk nothing
and in order to extend the period of their
plunderings as long as possible, they must
continue the excitement and hate of the
southern whites among the negroes, and
boldly and desperately they are playing
the game with this object.
The young HOLDEN Yields fire and sword.
Living in the turpentine State, he knows
how inaammsble turpentine is. Nothing
less fiery would answer his flaming vfndic-
tiveness. And he invokes the god of that
fluid to deluge the houses Of the rebels with
