sThe oastern question abates none
of its interest in Europe. There is a
continual seo.saw Of war and peace ru.
mors, or as some one calls it, an "intermit.
tent fever" 1t seems that while Turkey
and her provinces are irrevocably invol.
we'd in state ofwar which can only be
terminated by wise and harmonious coun-
sells and firm action on the part OF the
great powers, oil Of these nations have
schemes Of their own to carry out, and are
emily willing to settle the vexed questions
in way to suit their own wishes. Nota.
bly, it is so with Russia. The car is
pursuing an anti.Turkish policy and at.
fording substantial encouragement to the
Servians, and his course receives great
deal Of sympathy in America. On the
other hand, England rather iavOrs "the
sick man" probably on account of its
jealousy Of Russia. Whatever shall DO
the resultant policy and solution of the
question as to boundaries, it is to be
hoped the persecution Of the Christians
may cease and higher and more hu.
name system Of civilization may come to
prevail in the Ottoman empire.

1zrThe decadence Of the lyceum is
just now the subject Of solcitude, and to
some extent Of discussion, especially
among professional lecturers and readers.
There is undoubtedly a great falling Of
in the number Of lecture courses projected
for the season in this country. 1t is, in
fact, the ebbing Of the tide, the swinging
back Of the pendulum, the reaction in
public opinion which is so characteristic
Of human as we'll as inanimate nature.
For the season 10 come, it is said lecture
courses are the exception rather than the
rule, except in the large cities. Rev.
Murray says "thcy have died of charla.
tanism, variety show tactics and high
prices" which is to some extent true, no
doubt. But that explanation is made.
quate. II is in accordance with the nat
ural tendency Of things. The fever had
run too high. The stilted expectations
Of profit in the way of education from it
must Of necessity fail Of realization, and
the public opinion could not be expected
to stop at a just estimate Of its value.
After term Of years the lecture mania
will come again, like the spelling match
and the measles, and other such infections,
and the professions lecturers may as
we'll wait patiently for this golden return.

New York, Jan. 5.--A dispatch from
London says that the colossal bronze
statue of Grattan, mounted on lime
stone pedestal, was unveiled to-day on
College Green. in front of the Old
Parliament House, in Dublin, Ireland,
the scene of many of his greatest tri-
umphs. Speeches were made by Mr..
Sullivan, Hon. Isaac Butts and othes.
At IL O'clock monster procession
participated in by the trades unions
orders and citizens generally, moved
on TO the Custom House and assisted
in the ceremonies of unveiling. The
order of Foresters declined ts join in
the ceremonies, giving as reason
that they regarded the demonstration
of national character and endorsing
the idea of Irish Independence. Ar.
thur Guinness, member of Parliament
and Plunkett Gibson of the University
representatives also declined to par
ticipate.

Trenton, N. j., Jan. 0.-For some
time past thu Pennsylvania railroad
company has kept an engine OH the
track at Hopsville, to prevent the
Delaware and Boundbrook railroad
company from laying q frog and Sc
curing crossing. On the approach
of trains the engine would run on the
siding, resuming its former place
when the trains had passed. Last
evening as soon as the engine passed
on the siding about two hundred men
in the employ of the Delaware & B.
b. Railroad, suddenly approached and
tore up the siding and built Tempo
rary structure to enable them to go on
with the work. The Pennsylvania
railroad officials being informed OF the
act, sent an engine and broke through
this temporary structure, but in doing
so it ran off the track and was precipi-
tated down the hill. Meantime the
frog was put down and Boundbrook
engine placed on it and chained down
to the ties with immense chains, and

ported resolution instructing the
committee on military affairs to take
into immediate consideration the pay
and allowance of all officers of the
army, and to report whether any, and
If so, in whit cas.s such pay and allow
ance should be reduced. In connec-
ton with it, he said that while
the committee on appropriations de-
sired to make the reductions as fair as
possible, but yet with entire justice to
the army and all other branches of

to interfere in any way with the busi-
ness which the other committees of
the House may have before them. he
therefore could say that whenever the

to reduce the number of employees or
change their pay, it would do SO only
after the fullest conference with the
committee which had special charge
of the subject. The resolution was
agreed to.

The article of MIR. #. Johnston, of Bote.

lated to convey to the public a wrong i'm
preston In reference to the operations of the
fish commissioners. Though not native of
Scotland, but of this city, L was aware of the
fact (eVen before reading MIR. Johnston's ar.
ticle) that the California salmon as well as
the Atlantic salmon! is migratory fish, and
only seeks the fresh.water streams for the
purpose of propagatirg Its species. There
is, however, . species of salmon, known as
land locked salmon salnso gloueri), which is
not migratory in its habits, but has its hab.
itot in mountain streams and lakes. l.aJ
The object Of putting the California sal'
mon In Mountain lake was to make an expe-
riment as to whether that variety would
flourish when confined to fresh todter. 7JThe
mouth OF the lake had been efectnally
stopped SO as to jpreuent their getlng out OF
the Take. i They will thus be preserved from
the dangers of that terrible journey down the
New river which appears TO have excited so
much sympathy in che hearts of the editor Of
the Dispatch and MIR. Johnston. The ex-
