THE EUROPEAN CRISIS.

Although the dread of Immediate hos
tilities has somewhat subsidized. the past
week has wrought no essential change in
the attitude OF the various European
powers most nearly concerned in the
Servian war. Russia still insists on the
terms proposed, which are in substance
CD six weeks armistice. uncondition-
ally; >, administrative autonomy. or
home rule Tor Bulgaria. Bosnia. and
Herzegovina: 5, the execution OF reforms
under the supervision of commissioners
to be nambed by the Great Powers, and
to be protected by an armed foreign force
To these terms Turkey still hesitates
to accede. and the suspense is therefore
wha. statesmen term painful THE fact
is that the Sultan. though nominally
endowed with supreme and sovereign
power over his own dominions' is un-
able in this crisis tc check the rising pas
sions OF his subjects. The Moslem pop
ulation have heard nothing but VIC
tories for their own arms throughout
this whole conflict; they imagine them
selves able to cope single-handed. with
Russia; and they have, moreover, been
educated into believing that England
at al events must espouse their causs
il any grave emergency. Oftheee fan>

Irelaad's Centennial Greeting has not
vet been formally presented, andjudg-
ing from the correspondence that has
taken place, is not likely soon to be.
Having received an introduction to Pres
ident Grant in New York, Messrs.
O'Connor, Parnell and Power went on
to Washington, and notified the State
Department OF their readiness to con-
clude the mission entrusted to them
namely, to present. a congratnlatory ad,
dress from the Irish people, adopted on
the centennial anniversary of American
independence. They were abruptly
set back, however. by a communication
from the Acting Secretary OF State g..
l.. Calwalader,) which ran in substance
rs follows. that it was usual in such
cases to act through the foreign Minis
ter representing the country interested !;
that copy of the address had accord-
ingly been forwarded to Sir Edward
Thornton ;that he would not teel justified
in taking part in the presentation with
out express instructions from London ;
but that he would take pleasure in pre-
senting the gentlemen personally to the
President. In conclusion the Secretary
adds: The good wishes expressed tor
the United States on behalf OF the many
persons represented by you cannot fail
to be fully appreciated Next day the
two Irish representatives responded in
the su5ioined incisive letter:

When on Wednesday we had the hon.
or OF speaking with You on the subject
you expressed q wish that we should
make application to the British Minister
accredited to the United States: but we
declined to do so on the ground that VIC
had been deputed to present an address,
not on behalf Of the people OF Great
Britain. but on behalf OF the people OF
Ireland; the friendly relations which
have always subsisted between the Irish
and American nations requiring that
this great period in the history Of the
United States should be marked by .
popular and spontaneous expression Of
Irish sympathy. which Is Was felt would

SOME EFFECTS OF A GENERAL EURO
rEAN WAR. A general European war
would undoubtedly greately stimulate
every branch of business and every in
dustry in this country. War between
Russia and Turkey means an immediate
cessation ofthe exports of grain from
Odessa and other Russian grain ports on
the Black Sea. and corresponding in
crease OF the export OF cereals from the
United States at advancing prices. Our
ocean carrying trade would in Il great
measure return to US. and. that, too,
from the cause by which we lostit, war.
The ocean highways would be as unsafe
tor English vessels rs they were for
American bottoms during our great
civil war. Our:smanulacturers interests
would receive an immense impetus.
American domes.ics would become
dangerous competitors to English fab~
rics in the open markets OF the world.
1t is not difficult to forctell the effect
Of a European war on American COM

The anti-monopolist. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1874-1878, 1876-11-09

not now attempt to disabuSe them, and
consequently dares not accept any terms
which would bear the semblance OF o
surrender. So all the signs continue to
wear lurid aspect. 1t is possible that
a temporary truce Of some sort may be
patched up, but it can be only temporary.
War between the Russ and the Turk is
inevitable before many years. and Eng
land must take hand in or prepare to
pack up in India!
Since the above was written an armis-
tice has been agreed upon. but it will
be found to be the calm before the storm.
TRADING HIS CHILD FOR WAlskEY.
A sad story is told in the Louisville,
Ky. :, Riverside Weekly of the terrible in
fluence OF the liquor traffic, which oc-
Cured at Fairview, in that state. Some
three or tour years ago a promising
young man of that place married the
lovely and accomplished daughter of a
minister of the gospel. The young
couple were highly esteemed. and for a
while their welded lives ran smoothly
and happily, and they were all in all to
each other. But the tempter came-not
to the wife. but to the husband. He fell
NOT at once to the lowest depths, but
slowly and surely he went down the
grade that leads from moderate drinking
to confirmed drunkenness, until he spent
everything he had for whisky, even sell
ling the family bible to procure money
with which to crafty his craving tor
drink. A few months ago a baby was
born TO him, sweet little innocent that
laughed and coocd unconscious of the
degradation of its father. 1t would
have been "a well spring Of pleasure" in
the home OF sobriety and virtue. but here
its innocence and helplessness touched
no tender chord in the patterned heart.
The love it should have aroused was
dead, and in its place was an all-absorb>
ing thirst for intoxicating liquor. The
poor mother alone found some consola.
ton in its presence tor the grief caused
by her husbands fall. But it was to be
the means of adding a sharper pang to
her despair. The drunken father, un-
able to bear the torture of his raging
thirst, was at his wits end for means TO
secure its qualification. He had nothing
left which he could sell, and the barkeep>
er refused to trust him for another drink.
His morbid craving for stimulants was
driving him franticc and he was ready
almost for any desperate deed. At this
uncture he bethought him of his baby,
and horrible to relate, the unnatural
father took the innocent from the house,
carried it two miles to q low groggery,
and there actually traded it to the bar
keeper for drink! Is there deeper
shame than this? II there is, nobody
but the rum-seller can show the way to
it? The distress OF the unhappy mother
can be imagined better than described.
She recovered the child on paying for the
whisky, but her blighted hopes. her
bleeding heart, her wrecked fife still
remains to bear damning testimony
against the internal traffic through
which such ruin and intamy were
wrought.

MORE KINDNESS TO IRELAND.

i there be any solid foundation to a
ruhnor mentioned by transatlantic
under date of October 10, Queen Victor
ia is anxious to. bag two birds with one
brick by giving permanent Viccroy to
Ireland and snug berth to one of her
own dear boys at the same time. 1t is
suggested that the liberation OF the re-
naming political prisoners would be a
timely act of grace to smooth the young
mans path into Dublin. This would be
expected to ''humor the populace,"
while the snobs would be overjoyed of
course at their good fortune in having q
sprig of the blood royal among them.
Well, stranger things have taken place
and we haven't the slightest doubt that
any member of the royal family would
be glad to grab the handsome purse an
nually squeezed out of the Irish people
to support an ornamental popirjay in
Dublin Castle, whose chief occupations
consist in presiding at banquets, and
attaching his signature to coercion acts
and letters decachel. Irish World

Not a blow yet struck. They are

the beginnings Of war. Turkey trembles.

secret agents all over Europe in search

France looks on undisturbed. While
Austria is engaged, just now, in trying
