Colonel Audenred and Lieutenant Grant arrived
here from Smyrna last Monday. They are the Sui
tan's guests. and a handsome suit OF apartments
has been placed at their disposal In Pera with two
court carriages and state Clique. On the day sue
ceedlng their arrival the General and his STAFF
received in audience by the Sultan. His Majesty
received them
AT THE HEAD OF THE STAIRCASE,
an act OF special Difference and courtesy
not often vouchsared by Osmanli sovereigns.
Mr.. Boxer. the Minister, presented them.
and In doing so pronounced speech which
Mr.. Brown translated. The speech was elo-
quent, although tribe "tall" in its phrase
ology and long in its duration. 1t seemed all the
longer for being translated but the General only
yawned twice while waiting for his turn to speak.
When 1t came, however, he spoke as he always
does, gracefully and to the point. When the Gen.
eral and his suite came away the Sultan shook
hands with them, and then the cortege drove
OF to the Sublime Porte, where Sherman paid visit
to the Grand vizler and the other Ministers. On
Wednesday
A REVIEW OF TROOPS OF ALL ARMS
was held in the large square opposite the
Seraskeriat, and after it was over the
General and his staff breakfasted with the
Minister of War, and were initiated into tho

promenade de digestion, the wanderers proceeded
to visit the Admiral's flagship, Azozlch where tho
Admiral Bessim Pasha, who speaks American nearly
as well as an Engishman, received them with great

terday there was
A GRAND BREAKFAST OF sIXTY-THREE COURSES,
and a dessert given by the Sultan to tho
gallant General and his suite, which lasted
till late hour in the afternoon, allowing them to
drive hastily back to Pera and attire themselves for
a full-dress banquet at the Russian Embassy. This
Is faithful chronicle of the movements OF this noble
soldier up to last night. What he is about this

THE APPEAL OF THE AMERICAN MISSIONARIES.
Ever first In every good work, the American mis-
sionarics' appeal to the Constantlnople public on
behalf of the sufferers from the ia mine in the south
and southeast of Persia. COnstantinople has been
behind hand in charitable effortfor their
assistance; the Greeks have done omething 1t il
true, but the Mussulmans and Armenians, whose
ties with the Persian population are much closer,
have been strangely Indifferent to the narrowing
tales of tho situation of their corelgionists in
Khorassan. The American missionaries are now
setting on foot collection, the proceeds OF which
win be forwarded to Oormah for distribution among
the sufferers.
A WARNING TO BAD BISHOPS.
In q former letter mentioned the excOmmunicar
ton of three Bulgarian Bishsps by the Greek
Patriarch. According to native journal the Patri-
archa anathema has told severely on the insubordt
nate prelates. One has fallen down and broken his
arm, another has gone mad, and the third, who
was dying ut the time the sentence was pro-
nounced, became carbonlzed In his CONN. Such IL
the awful end OF those who draw upOu them tho
wrath OF the Patriarch OF the Greek Church.
