General Grant captured the

rare circumstance among the
Turks, and that no murderer is
ever put to death except upon
full personal confession of his
crime; otherwise he is held to
perpetual Imprisonment. it is
not u very great country for Grim
inaI lawyers, and still worse for
the whisky trade. The Turks
are Il very well-behaved, casy-go-
ing sort of people, and in this
respect set the Christian world
an illuStriouS example.

In the ship-buildinG towns OF
Maine the Republicans fell be-
hind ut the late election. Where
the ruinous effects of Radical pol
icy were Immediately felt, there
the Democratic ticket was
strengthened. The lesson to be
learned from this is, that the way
to defeat tho Republican party
is to make the people better un-
derstand tho mischief of its leg
islation. This has to he done by
persistent, earnest hard work; and
wherever the Democracy do their
duty in this regard the results
will invariably be to their advan-
taGr.
