AnAIrs in Eastern Europe.


In an editorial resume of the
state of affairs in Eastern Europe,
the Pennsylvania Monthly says:
The rule of the Turks over the
Christians Of the Levant has long
been synonymous with cruelty,
rapacity and intolerance. The
worst forms of oppression, and
injuries daily added to insults,
have been the experience of Chris
tians for generations. A slavery
of the most degrading kind has
been their portion from father to
son, and every attempt to Sc
cure their freedom has been crush
ed in bloodshed. And so for more
than a century the slaves, a hand
some, brave, intelligent people,
with a singular talent for poetry
and music, and a passion for hber-
ty, have stood bound at the very
portals of Christian Europe, when
the rattling of the chains could
be distinctly heard within. Nor
can it be doubted that the forma-
ton of Servian kingdom would
be a great gain, not only for the
slaves, but also for the cause of
civilization. The Turkish power.
has outlived its raison d etre. It
is an anachronism and, to use q
newly-coined word, an ''anatop-
ism" too. 1t is sluggish, inert
barrier in the way of progress
thorny obstacle in the path of civ
ilization. Its power cannot be
upheld by any plea of justice or
right, and it has long since forfeit
ed its claim to exist. On the 9TH
er hand a Christian power, built
up of Servia, Bosnia, Herzegovina,
Croatia, Montenegro, and the
Slavic inhabitants of Albania, ,Rou-
melia and Bulgaria, would give
an opportunity for the improve
ment of those countries, and for
the development, intellectual and
moral, of an interesting and high
ly-orgsnized people, whose faith
is Christian, whose spirit is free,
and all of whose yearnings are in
the direction Of better things.

HOUSE BILL NO. 60.

As we 60 to press we have only
time TO enter a short protest
against the passage Of the above
measure. Time and experience
have long ago proven the necessity
Of pilots in every commercial port
in the world. The wisdom Of the
present Pilot Law has been mani
fest. Each year that has passed
since it was enacted has but
proved its efficiency. Under it
our Foreign Commerce has been
constantly increasing, and it has
been a boon to our foreign ship
masters who, with scarcely an ex-
ception, have commended its pro-
visions.
The amendment above referred
to virtually makes the Pilot Law
a dead letter, for no pilot can be
found to execute its provisions,
The idea that the pilot boat must
cruise outside the Cape in this
tempestuous winter weather OF
forego the collection of pilot fees
is proposition as absurd as it is
inhumane. The introducer of the
bill [ q sea captain himsel0 well
knew the impossibility of his
amendments being put into prac.
teal effect. We find it hard tc
draw a charitable conclusion as tc
his motives in presenting such an
amendment. The people of JEFF.
ferson County and the whole
Lower Sound pray that the
Amendment BE NOT PASSED.

VoTIze IN WYoAuEe.-In this
territory, as is generally known,
ladies vote. Wyoming Territory,
therefore, not only sets an exam
pie for other Territories, but it
processes to have become civilized
under the influence Of women in
politics. The Laramie Sentinel
Ofa late date referring to it, says:
We wen remember the time
when many 3 man stayed away
from the polls rather than encoun-
ter the danger and rowdyism be
must meet in order to vote.
But all this is changed. Our cleo
tons go of as quietly as any other
social gathering, no matter how
heated q political campaign may
be, or how important the issues at
stake. And we all point with
pride to the result, whether or not
we agree as to the cause which
has produced it.

TIE PEACE PoIlcY-During
the recent council between the
Government Commissioners and
the Sioux Indians, a repetition of
the Modoc massacre was barely
averted by the courage and sense
Of honor of one ofthe chiefs pres
ent A correspondent of a Chica-
go paper states that at this critical
moment, the Commissioners and
their insignificant cavalry guard
swere completely covered by
Remington, Sharp and other first
class rifles" /" in the hands of the
hostile savages. Giving the In
dians costly arms to murder our
troops and settlers with is fair
exposition of the boasted peace
policy.

INSANE AsYLUM.-We see by
the proceedings of the Legislature
that the 9th inst. has been set
apart for an investigation of the
management of the Insane Asy-
lum. Without entering the con-
troversy, it is proper to say that
the subject is of great importance,
and it is to be hoped the matter
win be thoroughly sifted. If the
charges of mal-treatment of pa
tients are sustained the offenders
should be brought to justice; if
not sustained it is high time the
scandal was squelched.
