premeditated.
Notes from Abroad.
The Argentine Congress- has approved the
treaty concluded on the second of Febru-
ary, between Paraguay, Brazil and Buenos
Ayres, by which Cruto was adjudged to
Buenos Ayres. The question affecting the
district between Pilcemayo apd Rio Verde
has been referred to the arbitration of Pres
ident Grant, while 1t was stipulated that the
Argentine territory should be evacuated by
Brazil within five months.... The accounts
Of the alleged defeats of the Egyptians by
the Abyssinians are officially contradicted.
The war terminated on the ninth of March
last, and no fighting has occurred since.
King John, OF Abyssinia, sent letter on the
18th OF March, to the Khedive, desiring to
negotiate, and about the ninth of June the
Khedive sent Col. Ali Bey, fully empowered,
to Adowa, where King John had been for
the past month. The greater portion of the
Abyssinian army is now disbanded, and the
remainder is being ordered to the province
of Moghly, where a revolt is in progress.
The Egyptian army is returning home, only
a few battalions remaining on the frontier.
In the House of Commons, on June %,
Thomas Rowley Hall, Liberal, gave notice
that he would ask Disraeli on the following
Tuesday whether negotiations are pro.
crossing with the United States for amend
ing the Extradition treaty, and whether
Parliament would be afforded an oppor.
tunity the present session to discuss the
principles of amending the treaty to cover
the recent extradition cases......A dispatch
from Pesth reports that Sclavonic town in
South Hungary has subscribed two hundred
thousand forins for the insurgents in
Turkey. A Deputy Attorney.Gener has
been sent to that quarter to examine into
the state of affairs, which is daily becoming
more alarming.

The lately assassinated commander-in-
chief of the Turkish Army, Hussein
Avni Pasha, was the head Of the old
Turkish party, which was strongly op-
posed to the pacific policy of the late
government. He had already several
times held the portfolio of Minister for
War, and from February, 1874, to March,
1875, he was Grand Vizier. He entered
the army at an early age, and his intelli-
gence and military talents attracted the
notice of Faud Pasha, who afterward ap-
pointed him to an important post in the
war Office at ConstantinOple. During
tho Crimean War Hussein fought with
distinction under Omar Pasha, and when,
during the insurrection in Crete, Ali
Pasha was sent there on an extraordinary
mission, Hussein was appointed to the
command of the Turkish troops in the
island. After Ali Pasha's death Hussein
fell into disgrace, and was banished but
soon after he was recalled and appointed
Governor General of Smyrna. 1t is said
he was bitter opponent of Russia and a
great admirer of the military organiza-
tion of Germany. In the summer OF
last year he visited France and England,
and when he returned to Constantinople
shortly after the insurrectiOn broke
out-he was given the chief command OF
the Turkish troops, which, however, he
only held for short time, as when
MahmOud Pasha became Grand Vizier
he was obliged to resign.

The Republican Convention.

The third day of the Convention, June
16, was spent in balloting for President.
Seven ballots were taken before choice
was made. Six ballots varied little
in the choice for candidates, the
frst standing, Blaine, 2s5; Morton,
Hartranft, 5S; Wheeler, 3; Jewell, IL.
Hays, on the second ballot, received "a on
the third, 67;. on the fourth, 6s; on the
fifth, 104 on the sixth, 113. On the seventh
ballot, Morton and Bristow were withdrawn
when their States were called for ballotng,
and the seventh and last stood: Hayes, 384;
Blaine, 351; Bristow, 81. The nomination
of Hayes was then made unanimous.
The Chairman then announced the nomi-
nations for candidate to the Office of Vice.
President on the ticket. The roll of States
were made Hon. VIM. A. Wheeler of New
York; Governor rtewart +. Woodford, of
New York; General Joseph r. Hawley, of
Connecticut; Hon. F. T. Frelinghuysen, of
New Jersey. The balloting was begun. 1t
had not proceeded far before Governor
Woodford went upon the rostrum and in q
graceful speech withdrew his name from the
contest. He said that he had always be.
lieved it to be the duty of a citizen neither
to seek Office nor avoid it, The present
nomination had fallen upon him without
his seeking, and he felt assured that in
withdrawing his name at the present juno.
ture, he had done nothing which would
look like avoidance of the will of the con.
vention.
With the withdrawal of Gov. Woodford,
the field was left almost completely to Mr..
Wheeler.
Mr.. Kellogg, OF Connecticut, rose and
Withdrew the name Of Marshall Jewell. He
then moved that the nomination Of Mr..
Wheeler be made unanimous. The motion
was carried with shout Of applause.

TO substitute men, who were prisoners of
war atfhe time OF enlistment, or men who
were discharged upon their own application,
or other causes than disability incurred in
service prior to the 10th of April, 1865, un-
less such discharge was obtained with view
to re-enlistment, or to accept promotion, or
to persons discharged on the ground OF mi
nority. All applications for bounties under
this bill are to be filed within five years. II
was estimated that the amount required to
pay these bounties would be between nine
and ten million dollars. The bill was passed.
Adjourned.
In the Senate, June 81, Mr.. Morton

Treasury to issue $4,000, 600 in coin, in ex.
change for legal tender notes, was amended
by providing that hereafter trade dollars
should not be legal tenders, and limiting the
future coinage of the same to the export de.
mand, and then passed. The nomination OF
Mr.. Morrill, as Secretary OF the Treasury was
confirmed. The President was authorized to
appointC Commissioner to the International
Conference on the subject of the
relative value of gold and silver
coin. The Indian Appropriation Bill
was then taken up, discussed, read
third time, and passed. As passed, 1t
contains nothing concerning the transfer OF
the Indian Bureau to the War Department.
...... In the House, Mr.. Cooke, of Georgia,
made an address on the subject of griev.
ances in the Southern States, and in advo.
cacy of the refunding of the cotton tax.
The Sundry Civil Appropriation bill was
taken up, and an amendment to pay the
executor of the estate of the late Henry Will
son ten thousand two hundred and twenty
two dollars, being the salary for the unex-
pired term of his Office as Vice President,
was adopted. Different sections Of the bill
were discussed, and the House took recess
until eight p. m. In the evening session the
debate was continued.
In the Senate, June %, the entire day was
spent in discussing the Naval ApprOpria-
tion Bill. The Senate Committee amended
the House bill by increasing the total
amount appropriated $3, 3,65S, 900. Most of the
amendments made by the Senate Committee
read third time and passed, and
the Senate adjourned .........In the House
the entire day and evening sessions
were spent in passing the various items in
the Sundry Civil Appropriation bill. All
debate was shut off, and as soon as one item
passed the Committee of the Whole, the
committee rose, reported the item to the
House, and then went back into the commit
tee. The items were passed just as they
were reported by the House Committee on
Appropriations.

IS SnubbingO Children.

There is an age for ehildren-the awk-
ward age, so called-when they are too
young to be considered adults, and too
old to be precisely children. At this age
they are apt to be disagreeable, blunder-
ing, or in the way, and it requires great
deal of tact and kindness to keep them
in their right place without snubbing,"
or injuring their selfrespect. How is a
child to learn to respect itself il it sees
that it is alone in the sentiment-that
by no one else it is respected More
harm is perhaps done children by snub-
bing than by weak indulgence. We have
all seen homes where the slightest ex-
preston of child's idea on any point
under discussion was greeted with
Who asked you what you thought p
or with some sarcasm, such as" All,
now we shall have it-Miss Experience
is freeing her mind" It is 80 difficult TO
hit the right mean. We do not want our
children to be troublesome TO visitors
grown.up people do not want to pause in
their talk to listen to the unconsidered
opinions of child of thirtcen-but
what if we tried the experiment of res
pectful attention for while? Would
not the young folks cease talking until
they had something to say, quite as surely
IL they saw that they were listened to
with attention, as il they felt that their
voices were but beating the air7 Even
the smallest of our little ones should be
treated with courtesy and attention.

DIR. ScmEScK's PULMoSIo SYRUP, Sea WEED Tonic,
AND MANDRAKE PILLs.-These medicines have un-
doubtedly performed more cures Of Consumption
than any other remedy known to the American pub
lie. They are compounded Of vegetable ingredients
and contain nothing which can be injurious to the
human constitution. Other remedies advertised as
cures for Consumption, probably contain opium.
which Is somewhat dangerous drug In all cases,
and IL taken freely by consumptve patients 1t must
do great injury for its tendency is to conhne the
morbid matter in the syste which, of course, must
make cure impossible. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup
Is warranted not to contain particle of opium 1t
is composed OF powerful but harmless herbs, which
act on the lungs, liver, stomach, and blood, and
thus correct all morbid secretions and expel all the
diseased matter from the body. These the only
means by which Consumption can be cured, and as
schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic, and
Mandrake Pills are the only medicines which operate
In this way Ii Is obvious they the only genuine
cure for Pulmonary Consumption. Each bottle of
this invaluable medicine is accompanied by full d-
rections Dr. Schenck is professionally at his prn-

leather, and some of the finest pieces of
polished timber in the exhibition. South
Australia and New South Wales will be
the great wine-producing countries of
Australia, for the grape grows there to
perfection, and they have already sue
ceeded in making firstclass wine. Tas-
mania has climate very much like
England, while Queensland is more like
Florida. Queensland and New South
Wales are the only States which grow
the sugar cane, and they are by far the
richest in minerals. Mr.. Robinson,
Secretary Of the Commission, and acting
Commissioner at the Centennial, tells me
that the object of the different govern
ments in taking part in the Exhibition is
to show their good feelings toward Amer
lea, and to make their production better
known to our people. Australia is nearly
as large as the United States, and it is
chiefly settled along the south and east
ern coasts. Although it is between ten
and eleven thousand miles from Phila-
delphia, it takes less than twenty-eight
days to go by the Pacific Mail from San
Francisco to Sydney.
INTERNAL IMPROVEMENTS.
The Australians have built more than
sixteen hundred miles of railway and
over twenty thousands miles of telegraph.
These are public works constructed and
managed by the State Governments. AS
compared by the seventy or eighty thOus-
and miles Of railway in the United
States, the Australian railways don't
amount to much. But the population is
only One-twentieth of ours. Mr.. Robin
son informs me that the Australian Gov
ernment would double their railway
mileage at once if they could only get
men to build their roads. They have
plenty of money, but nothing like labor
to do the rough work of a new country,
such as fencing, making dams, and build
ing railroads. Unskilled laborers earn
from eleven to twelve dollars a week,
and the cost of living is as cheap in
Australia as it is here, and in some
things, such as clothing, it is far cheaper

The present indications are that the
wheat yield in this country the present
year will be very large. California ex-
poets a crop of 60,000,000 bushels.
Missouri, Kansas, and Iowa count on an
equal amount, provided the grasshopper
neglects to put in an appearance, and
they insist that this ought to be its off
year. Minnesota is booked for 30, ,OOO,-
600 bushels, and will sell two.t thirds of
the yield If prices are good. European
steady, and the demand is likely to in
crease. The Black Sea is not likely to
export grain enough to supply Eastern
Europe, to say nothing Of the Western
nations. The prospect of our farmers
and shippers is very cheering, and its
effect is already felt in our streets.
