RECEPTION OF GENERAL SHERMAN BY
THE SULTAN. a

When the party had once entered the
hall tho order OF precedence was an
nounced them by Servia Pasha through
Mr.. Brown, the dragoman. Only at
that moment was it discovered that
Lieutenant Grant was to go first, and,
as the son of the President Of the Unit
ed States, be received as prince royal.
1t was too late to do anything by way of
explanation, and though Fred" went
forward very reluctantly, he accepted
the situation, and, followed in order by
General Sherman, Mr.. Boxer, and the
rest of the party, approached the stair
case, where, on the landing at which it
divided, was standing Abdul ASST, Sui
tan of Turkey, who, shaking Lieutenant
Grant by the hand, turned, motioned
him to continue up the stairway, and
walked by his side, without paying any
attention to the rest of the party. The
Sultan conducted them into very
handsome room, which looked out upon
most beautiful scene, embracing the
Bosphor1s, Golden Horn, and city of
Stamboul. After entering the room the
Sultan received General Sherman very
courteously, and seating himself, mo-
toned the party to do likewise. After
short pause he began the conversation
in Turkish, which was translated by Mr..
Brown. Mr.. Boxer made a short
speech recounting the history of the
visitors. The interview lasted about
fifteen minutes, and at its termination
the Sultan accompanied the party to
the head of the staircase, where he
shook hands with Lieutenant Grant
and the general, simply inclining his
head to the rest. Abduel ASST is rath-
er stout, about five feet eight inches in
height, has large dark eyes, grayish hail
and beard. He was dressed in loose
snuff.colored pantaloons, black coat,
cut like that of an Episcopal minister,
and patent leather shoes. Under his
coat he wore white flannel shirt, on
his head the fez, and on the little finger
of his right hand an immense ruby
ring. He assured the general and party
that they should have access to every
object Of interest. - From "Genera
Sherman in Europe and the East" by

A LINGERING DEATH.

The Lancaster, Penn, papers report
the death of young man, fifteen years
old, named Henry Colly, which is in
many respects remarkable. He lay up
on bed of pain for one hundred and
seventeen days, and during that period
of time never once arose. He was first
taken sick with an attack of cerebro-
spinal meningitis, and this disease finally
terminated in consumption of the
bowels. After the first day of his sick
ness he was unable to hear or see, and a
greater part of the time had no power
of speech. His attention could at GER
tain times be attracted by holding any
article of bright material in front OF
over him. and moving it from one posi-
ton to another. The fact of the little
fellows remarkable sickness spread all
over the county, and numbers of physi-
clans had visited him merely through
curiosity. At the time of his death he
was skeleton, with only dry, parch-
ed covering of cuticle drawn over the
bones, and that without any perceptible
vitality in it. His muscles had actually
melted away. During part of the time
particularly during his last days. he
suffered with lockjaw, and his mouth

THE RAIN FALL.

The heavy and almost continuous
fall of rain since midnight of Tuesday,
with the further disagreeably accom-
paniment of driving east wind, cannot
fail to send back to the city, from ocean
shores and mountain ridges, many
seekers after breezes coolor and more
invigorating airs than those which fan
our streets in the usually sultry month
of August. Although unexpected and
at the first blush-or, perhaps more APP
propriate, gust--unprecedentedly severe
and disagreeable weather for the last
summer month, the meteorological re-
cords Of the immediate past tell us that
the August of 1867 was mainly made
up of a succession of very severe show
ers and unbroken days Of pelting rain.
Six years ago, too, people came troop
ing homeward from the summer resorts
long before the conventional returning

A TEMPEST OF WIND AND RAIN.

During the past three or four days n
severe storm has been gathering ON the
Middle Atlantic coast. It reached its
elimination, apparently on Wednesday,
when the center of disturbance moved
from Pennsylvania into New Jersey and
New York. So far as our reports show
the greatest damage has been done in
Pennsylvania, the city of Philadelphia
and its suburbs having suffered mate
rally. The wind and rain played sad
havoc through Eastern Pennsylvania
and Maryland ; and from as far South as
the District of Columbia we have re-
ports of the ravages of the gale. The
progress of the storm is toward New
England, where its lessening force is
likely to be felt to-day. ''1
In the immediate vicinity of New
York there has been no great destruc-
ton of property, though there has
been some panic. All along the New
Jersey coast the tide was unusually high
and the gale violent. AT Jersey City,
cellars and ship yards were flooded,
while at Long Branch the beach was
scanned and broken up, and some of the
bathing-houses were destroyed. In
New York rain fell in torrents, accom-
panied at times by high winds. The
yachts of the New York clubs fleet
which left Glen Cove early in the week
on cruise to Newport, were driven by
head winds into quiet waters, and are
nearly all now storm-bound in New Ha-
ven harbor. No marine disasters have
been reported. although several incom-

THE GREAT suMMER STORM

Those who came to Long Branch to
enjoy the ocean had enough of it on
Wednesday night. The wind roared
and the wooden walls of the West End
strained and creaked like ship in q
gale, while the dark waves dashed white
spray against the bluff. The rain was
cold and penetrating, and few ventured
outside the parlors. Even the rooms
were not comfortable. When morning
dawned the wind was still high and the
rain falling. Ocean avenue was shall.
low canal, and several of the bathing
houses had been washed away. A few
daring men descended to the beach tc
rescue articles floating around. One Of
them, a boarder at the Metropolitan,
was swept off his feet by the surf and
carried some distance. He was rescued
insensible. 't
The morning train left on time. Near
Seabright, telegraph poles were down,
though the wires did not seem to touch
the sand. Shrewsbury river was calm
as duck pond, while on the other side
of the narrow spit the breakers were
dashing over the frail palisades. The
Jesse Hoyt took her passengers, steam.
ed into the fog, and nothing more was
seen of land until she reached the Mar
rows. The sea was rough, and
two or three of the few ladies on board
were sick. The Jesse Hoyt and Ply.
mouth Rock are both stanch boats,
and the Seabird is as seaworthy yes
sci as runs from New York. 1t is diff
cult to imagine how the rumors of the
previous day got afoat. 8JIHE
Between Seabright and the Highland
stations the ocean has repeatedly wash
ed over the beach, and made q slight
water way through to the Shrewsbury
river. At one o'clock yesterday it was
believed that the danger to the railroad
was over. The tide reached its highest
point at half-past twelve, and although
it swept over the beach and across the
track, carrying away the bedway, the
gravel train soon filled it up, and every
thing was again in order. When the
Plymouth Rock came down to Sandy
Hook last evening the gale was still
heavy, but the waves had settled into
q low swell

JOHN STUART MILL, THE WOMEN'S
EVANGEL.

The highest encomium which John
Stuart Mill now receives--that which
he would most value--is that every
noble woman's heart in Europe is this
day comfortless beside his grave.
remember to have been present once in
company composed chiefly of ladies
of the highest class in Moscow, when a
friend, introducing me said, "He is a
friend of John Stuart MILL" when in
stantly I was surrounded by all of that
sex in the room, begging to be told of
his look, his manner, and every word l
had ever heard him speak. Each de-
clared that she kept his work on The
Subsection Of Women by her side, and
read it as her gospel. Throughout Rus
STA [ found it the same, and heard the
sentiments of that work quoted on the
stage amidst applause in which every
woman made her hands attest the HON
age of her heart. In France the best
women proudly claimed him as their
adopted fellow-citizen, and the tribute
he had written on his wife's grave made
them forget the romances of Hugo and
About. .rNqN{nI uIG gqngt
There never was man more worthy
to receive this homage and love from
good women for great as was his in
tellect, and heroic as was his devotion
to large public ends, he was, from his
earliest to his latest days, distinguished
among those who knew him as one
whose affections We're almost passionate
in their depth, and whose love, when
he did love, might be described as pass
ing the love of woman M. d. Con
way, in Harper's Magazine for Septem-
her. la

FLORENCE, Alabama, has profound,
irrefragible faith that a great central
point of conveyance of railways was
made upon the face Of the earth at Flor
ence, when the moundbuilders reared
there one Of the greatest mounds Oh. the
continent. These curious odd-fellows
rarely made mistakes in designating
centers Of population as now fixed, and
the editorial successor of the organ
grinder Of the ancient, forgotten race
may be a prophet, though he looks
backward over his shoulder for his sour
ces Of inspiration. Florence is a charm
ing place, in the midst Of rich, pro-
ductive country, and was built, finished
and fenced in, if not by the mound
builders by their immediate successors
on the face Of the earth. 1t is the old
est place, Of its age, on the continent.
And yet there is, nowhere, a better,
more intelligent, industrious population.
We hope the dreams Of the Journal NAV
be realized.
