THE Earl of Albemarle describes
the Queen of England, when, a
bright, pretty girl seven years old,
she day after day watered the plants
under the palace window, where he
watched her: at was amusing to
see how impartially she divided the
contents of the watering-pot be-
tween the flowers and her own little
feet. Her simple but becoming
dress c~ontrasted favoraBly with the
gorgeous apparel now worn by the

The London Echo relates that when
Prince Bismarck was 10 Versailles be
met with q man who was singularly
agreeable. The two. used to walk about,
arm in arm; they we're like brothers.
Bismarck found that his friend eagerly
entered into all his views and schemes
as to the politics of the future. 1t is
ven possible that they addressed one
another as "Du." The dominant char.
scteristic of Bismarck's friend was bis
bitter detestation of Roman Catholicism.
One day the German Chancellor said to
him in a soothing tone: Do not vex
yourself so much about it; in a few
years there will be no Catholicism. l
shall destroy it from the face of the
earth" His friend smiled grimly and
sadly. "Yer will have to be much more
clever than | am" said he; "for eighteen
centuries | have been working against it
with all my power and cunning, and l
am obliged to confess that | am Just as
far from success to-day as when l FIRST

THE EUROPEAN A
England Decides 90 Leavs ahe otto
man Empire 90 It's Pate.

New YORK, October "A special
from London says that England has de-.
cided to leave the Ottoman Empire to its
fate. She will hold Coustantinople to
the last extremity, but the territory can
be divided up among whatever nations
are able to subdue aud hold it. If Rus
STA now crosses into Balkans, the hour
of the Turks in Europe has come. En-
glands plan now is to make CONSTANT.
nople a second Gibraltar. Her Mojesty's
Cabinet Thursday night resolved that
the invasion Of Turkey by the Russians
shall be the signal for the occupation Of
Constantinople by $4,000 men, and the
movement Of the whole feet of iron
clads now in Basita Bay to the Golden
Horn. To provide for such an emergen-
cy transports will at once carry three
corps Of regulars to Malta, where enor-
mons quantities Of military stores and
provisions have been accommodating for
months past. Should the non-belligerent
powers, such as Germany, Austria
and France oppose, Britain's policy
will then be the occupation Of Egypt,
a course rendered necessary by the
vital Importance to Grea: Britain Of
the Suez canal. Some prominent Eng
lishmen say the. Khedive woull be very
willing to hold his title under the SOW
erignty Of the English throne, much the
same as the royal princes Of India.
The command of the British troops in
the East has been assigned to Major
General Sir Charles William Dunbar
Havely, K. C. B eli experienced Indian
officer. One hundred and fifty half pay
officers of the British army have applied
for permission to join the Turkish forces,
50 bitter is the hatred to the Russians.
Positions are said to be already offered
them.

The English newspapers, for which
Mr.. Thomas Carlyle pretends to have
contempt, have been dealing very I'm
fairly with the veteran historian by stat
ing that he had committed suicide.
There was a suicide in Carlyle square,
which the "penny-a.liners" transformed
into the death OF Thomas Carlyle. The
rugged historian" would not contradict
the statement through the newspapers,
and his admirers besieged his house with
inquiries, and we're told that the octoge-
marian was as well as ever, and was busy
writing a "Latter.day Pamphlet Against
the Fourth Estate in which he de-.
nounced the Times, Telegraph, Standard
and Daily News as solemn shams,"
which modern civilization had brought
as curses on society. The newspapers
in question, however, are expected to
come out as usual.

Mr.. Froude once said: MANY a huu.

many a dissertation on the mysteries of
the faith, IN a~postnlical succession, on
blsheps and justification, and the theory
of good works and the efficacy of the
sacraments, but never during these thirty
wonderful years, never one that | can
recollect on common honesty, or those
primitive commandments: Thou shalt
not lie, and thou shalt not steal" Ifthe
good man had only lived in a Reformed
Dutch congregation he could not have
failed to hear, at least once 10 four years,
not only these commandments but all
the others In the d~ecalogae faithfully

Then the Nova Scotia ones were found
superior. Ohio grindstones are largely

Lake Huron grindstones are superseding
all others; they have a hne sharp grit,

IT is proposed to carry a wire to
the Cape Of Good Hope across the
African continent. OF the fifteen
miles or so of aerial lire it is sug-
ge8ted that much might be erected
without the expense of poles by
taking advantage of the trees over
thickly wooded tracts, which are
frequent IN tropical Africa. The
difficulty would be to keep the ma
tives from utilizing the wire in re-
gions where iron is scarce and
valuable, but this might be got over.
The undertaking, if it could be
established and kept in working
order, would be exceedingly lucra.
cratiye, and would in many way;

The letter truly states that the
present canvass is an important
one, and conferences of friends are
no doubt necessary. Every Demo-
crat, be he high tax OF low TAX,
should go to the Greenlaw Opera
tonight and listen to Dorsey
B. Thomas. Even the friends of
Porter should attend and
thereby hear both sides, so that they
may be better enabled to vote un-
lerstandingly on the 9TH of No
vember. 1t would be advisable to
postpone the conference of friends
to some other evening.
