Strange Rumors Of Proposed Entire
Remodeling Of the Map Of
Eastern Europe.

AIuDASAA NAAANkCs
tythna Dune l9) Correspondence Of the New York
Tribune)
Strange rumors are 8fioat about
an agreement between the Emperors
OF Russia. Germany and Austria to
put an end to the Sick Man Of Tur-
key, and administer upon his estate.
The last report is that al entire re-
modelling of the map Of Eastern
Europe has already been decided up
on that the outlines Of the plan
were sketched at the meeting of the
three EmpOrers last year, and that
the arrangement Of the details was
the object Of the recent journey OF
the Emperor Of Germany TO St. Pc
tersbsIgh, and Of the Car to Vien-
IA. The programn g, SO the story
goes, is as follows: The Austrian
Empire is TO be dismembered, Be-
hemia, MOravia and Austrian Siesia
TO go to Prussia; Gallcia to Russia;
the provinces of Upper aud Lower
Austria, Syria, the Tyrol, Carinthia
and CarniOla to compose a new
Kingdom or Grand Duchy, under
the sovereignty OF the Archduke
Carl Ludwig; the Emperor Francis
Joseph to abdicate and 20 assume
the sovereignty Of a grand Eastern
empire, made up of Hungary, Croa-
tia, Slavonia, together with III Eu-
ropean Turkey and the semi-inde.
pendent Turkish dependencies OF
Roumania (Wallachia and Moldavia)
and Montenegro. The province Gall
llca would of course be less than
Russia's fair share Of this division,
so she is to get, besides all of Asiatie
Turkey, unlimited opportunity to
push her frontiers 10 the direction Of
India as far as she wishes. The
magnificent dimensions of this
scheme Of national reconstruction
surpass belief, and il seems incred-
IDLE thatvast countries, tn millions
Of inhabitants, are to be traded off
and divided up by three sovereigns,
as coolly as robbers share their
spoils. There are elements of prob
ability in the story, however, which
must not DO overlooked 'rhe prov

Training a Heifer.

Cows usually become addicted to
Kicking when heifers, from being
MIXED by abusive mixers. | have
never seen an old COW become n
kicker unless abused. Instead of
COWS being averse to being MIXED
when giving large quantity, have
ever found IT the reverse. When
pasturage is good, and COWS come
home at night with udders distended
with milk, our "down East" cows
seem grateful to have it removed
Milking heifer for the first time re.
quires patience, for they will almost
invariably kick. In such case nut

What Goddess Bismarck Says.


A correspondent Of tho New
York Herald dated Berlin, june 30,
makes public a most remarkable
conversation with Prince Bismarck.
10 which the Prince, after giving ex.
preston to bis WEAKNESS OF spirit. is
made to say "In truth, there are
not half dozen men in Germany on
our side; i mean who clearly com.
prehend the real, true meaning of
the conflict in which we are engag-
ed, and in which, Notwithstanding
our success thus far, now believe
we shall be beaten. The Emperor
does not understand it, and il be did
nc would change sides in a moment.
The Crown Prince perhaps does un-
derstand it, but he will put himself
on the other side, ifindeed he is not
already there" The fight is the
Empire against the Church. Ii Is a
hight OF the State -empirc, monarchy
or republic-against God, and in this
tight the State will get the worst CT
II, unless il succeeds in destroying
the idea of God, and placing itself in
His place. Men say that they must
have something to worship. Well,
then, let them worship the State
let II be all in all let it take The
place Of tho family, as we'll as Of the
Diety let it be the Diety. In two
generations, if We had the field who'll
ly TO ourselves, we could so obliter~
ate the idea Of God and Of magma
ry rights bestowed on man by Him
as their Creator, that the substitu-
ton of the State in his place would
be effected, and the State, as in pa
gan Rome, be all in all"
The correspondent, giving; in his
own language, the spirit of the con.
tinued conversation with Bismarck,
says that the seminal idea of the
whole was that the aspiration for
liberty grow out of belief in God
that it would be impossible to make
perfectly subservient people out
of men imbued with dogmas of
Christianity, and that while all
forms OF Christianity were alike fall
lacious, be cared TO war against
none but the Roman Catholic
church, for the reason that it alone
was formidable He said Moth
ing has amused me more than the
praises which | have received from
the Protestant Christians of Eng.
land and America. | have wished
to crush Rome that | might crush
Christianity. They praise me for
my services in the cause of what
they call reformed Christianity. II
anything could console me for the
chagrin which forsee | am to en-.
dure for some time to come, It would
be to witness the amazement OF
these good friends of mine when
they understand the truth. But un-
derstand is they never will"

Sea-Sickness Durable.

believe the opinion to exist among
the non-medical part of the commu.

amongst sea-going surgeons from
supineness in applying remedies-a
fault to which they are rather too

instances | allow the stomach to dis
charge its contents once or twice,
and then, if there is no organic dis
ease, give five drops Of chloroform
in little water. and, if necessary,
repeat the dose in four or six hours.

treatment, if conf Joined with few
simple precautions, ia TO cause an
Immediate sensation, as it were, of
warmth in the stomach, accompani-
