10 settle the dispute in that way; but the Italian Am
bassador who is very jealous OF his dignity holly as
that there is a treaty still existing between the
Porte and the Genoese now represented by his august
MASTER and which is far anterior 10 that which his
French colleague founds spurious claim for prece

this important subject they separate with some

PERFECT MIDDLE.
The whole business has got into very pretty by
this time. Brbautak or Skampovcn drunk all day
long and make peremptory demands for brandy and
tobacco all the country. Whichever of them hap
pens TO be before the public orders himself
crown after the fashion of King Philip of Macedon or
the ancient Vaivodes, and becomes conoundedy i'm
pudent that the newspaper correspondents can no
longer get anything of them Nay rather he talks
OF ordering of them to be shot because the newspa
per he represents has printed something to the dsad
vantage Of him Brbautaki Skampovlch, as the case
may be) These little squabblcs may however, be
settled by purchasing the favor Of the great leaders,
henchman for 81 and yellow silk pocket hand
kerchief to tie round his head. But the inn
preston is gaining ground that Birbautaki or
Skampovich terrible fellow when left sober too long,
and besides, the correspondents have held him up to
the admiration Of mankind so vividy during the dull
season that they would like to write about some
thing else and get out of the mud hove in which they
have been half alive by vermn during the au-
tumn The revolutionary chief whose fame they have
made will not let them CO. and public opinion is get
ting everywhere excited about him. The Court Journal
of the British arstocracy compares him to Renz, with
whose biography has become acquainted through Bull
wers novel The French Figaro considers he is more
like General Hoche The Daily Telegraph is of opinion
that he might be ttly compared to Leonidas at which
Mr. Sala cries "Bahl Why not to King DavidY" But
the Times which always prints strongly, declares one
morning that he the greatest hero the world has yet
seen and the next that there is evidently nothing in

COMING CRISIS.
Then come the Ambassadors audience with the Sui
tan. His Majesty is stout elderly gentleman, with
very short temper, and he has habit of expressing
dsapprobation by very loud grunts and sideward
movement which Is extremely contemptuous. His
Majesty has moreover, some very expensive wives,
and his chief prcoccupaon in this life is to keep them
quiet by of presents of jewelry Most of his
time and money gocss sn that way So when the Am
bassadors have expressed their grievances in accord
with their instructions "Humphl" says the Sui
TAM in a voice like the growing OF distant thunder and
he around his sofa cushion that the lower
portion of round back only exposed to the diploma
tists view.
Yet there great deal in that ''Humphi" It means
in the first place ''Go to Jericho thou pestlent Am
bassador Thou hast badgered already three times
this year. and again!-but never mind" II the
Sultan was sultans were, and could direct
his cavarres to sieze the Ambassadors by
their necks and heels and to throw
them into the Bosphoros. he would certainly do so
but he has to think of the loan that he will want
next week. and his expensive wives who waiting for
it, so that after all the ''Humphl" signify that he
will do what is required Of him.
''Siay the graves of these fellows grandfathers be
dehed " however says the Sultan when alone with his
Grand Vizier. 'What do they want of US nowY If
angel sent down from heaven to govern, what
could or my Ministers do than doing

peror of Austria, told him piece of my mind person

sisters"
That really the state of the Sultan's mind and the
upshot of the whole thing is that pacha has
sent down to treat with the latest insurgents on the
clear understanding that he is not, any account
punish them, but to tell Brbautaki Skampovch
that they very gallant fellows who did quite
right to kick up row and acquire notoriety. The
envoy pacha from the Turks will be met by rabbe
route of European consuls, who will treat him much
the Ambassadors treat the Sultan. In my letter
purpose inform you how instructions fomented
appeascd under .ils queer system of management,
which too ridiculous for the incidents of farce
but which is somewhat sorrowful reading for Turkish
bondholders The result of the Intervention of the
six Powers is the destruction OF the independence of the
Ottoman Empire, for 1t shows that the Sultan has
longer any authority over his own subjects
