Turkeys New Sultan.

AS our readers are aware, there lisa
new Sultan in Turkey, and amid the
confusion of the changes occurring in
that much-agitated country 1t will
cost this side of the world very little
to grasp, here and there, a little extra
information upon Turkish rule, rulers
and customs.
The displaced Sultan, Abdul Aziz,
who succeeded to the throne upon the
death of his elder brother just fifteen
yeavs ago the present month, Is .
hneai descendant Of Gilman, the
founder of the empire. and was the
twenty-sixth in power. He began
his rule with u declaration to reform
the marked evils of the time, but his
life OF Incidence and RIGHTEOUSNESS
soon did away with any honest OF
patriotic idea Of government that he
may have had at the outset, and he
became as gross aud profigate as any
OF his imperial predecessors.

It turns out that 3. L. Butler is ut
the bottom ofthe present raid against
MI. Blaine. He has a grudge to feed
fat, it seems, Mr.. Blaine, as Speaker
of the House, when Butler was a
member, having crossed the latter's
path. The friends Of Blaine have
every reason to believe that he will
come out Of the pending ordeal as
successfully as he came out of those
preceding it. 1t is now virtually
established that the private letters of
Mr.. Blaine which the man Mulligan
proposed to give to the public contain
nothing whatever touching the mat
ter in question, aud that it is a ..cun.
ming dodge of the enemy. The ques-
ton now Is, who hired this unknown
man Mulligan to appear a "mys-
terious Witness" armed with private
letters that were not written to him,
and which did not belong to him,
against Mr.. Blaine? Ben Butler,
Roscoe Conkling land almost any one
of the Confederates in Congress could
no doubt answer the question. 1t is
a cowardly piece of business, and we
predict that in the end 1t will not
damage Mr.. Blaine in the least.

Daniel Drew,s curious testIm,

Daniel Drew's curious testimony,
which shows that he kept no books
of account for his complicated stock
transactions, makes it probable that
this was one of his habits as a drOver
which he has kept up through life.
In a partnership suit between two
drovers, brought in this city some
years ago, the evidence was that they
made a "wad" of the money which
each originally put into the concern.
Whichever acted as the buyer of cat
tle-sometimes II and sometimes
the other-carried the 'swad Z" each
put into 1t what he received, and each
drew from 1t what he spent. After
some years, they divided the "wad"
equally. That was all there was out
of their system of bookkeeping. New

MuTai Effendi, the Bew Sultan, il a
lay Of succession among the MOslsm
rulers provides that the throne shall
pass 10 the oldest member Of the rul-
ing famiIy.and when Aziz was forced
TO abdieate, this rule gave the place to
the present Sultan, instead OF to the
son of Abdul Aziz, a youth of Is,
named Yo~ussouff, whom the the I'M
seated Sultan has been endeavoring
TO make his successor for some time.
1t has been quite common with
Turkish heads 10 "strangle" off any
nephew or other ambitious male rel
that might stand in the way
of a favorite sons prospects, but
Murad Effendi has escaped this fate
by fleeing the country, and now is
called by revolution of the people TO
take the throne, an event without a
parallel in the history of the Ottoman
Empire.
Murad Efendi promises TO reform
as did his uncle on his accession to
power. He announces his intention
to do away with the monstrous evil,
no harem, and have about him no
wife other than the beautiful Circas-
sian woman whom he some years ago
purchased for a wife, and who is the
mother Of his children. 1t is doubt.
ful whether he keeps all his good
resolutions, but it is hoped that he
may, for the good of himself and a
nation which stands in sore need of a
reforming hand.
The new Sultan is superior TO the
old, in that his views of life are broad
er and his temper towards the chris
tian religion more tolerant. He is a
man of considerable travel and edu-
cation, and is backed in his position
by that most powerful body of Mos
lens, the Sofas, or inmates Of the
Mohammedan mosques. Murad Eff
fendi is but 36,years old.

Bow-legs and knock-knees are
among the common deformaties of
humanity and wise mothers assert
that the crookedness in either cas-
arise from the afflicted one having
been put on his or her feet too early
in babyhood. But a Massachusetts
physician who has watched for the
true cause thinks differently. He
attributes the first mentioned distor-
ton to a habit some youngsters de-
light in of rubbing the sole of one
foot against the other. some go to
sleep with their soles pressed together.
They appear to enjoy the contact only
when tho feet are naked they do not
attempt to make it when they are
socked or slippered. So the remedy
is obvious keep the baby's soles COW
cred. Knock-knees the doctor as
cribes to a different childish habit,
that of sleeping on his side, with one
knee tucked into the hollow behind
the other. He has found that where
one leg has been bowed inward more
than another the patient has always
slept on one side, and the upper
member has been that which has
been most deformed. Here the pre-
ventitave is to pad the inside of the
knees so as to keep them apart, and
let the limbs grow freely their own
way. All ofwhich he recommended
to mothers who desire the physical
%uprightness of their progeny.

Girls Fishing.

A. tells how ladies fish. He said he
saw four of them who had succeeded in
landing little founder No sooner lad
the poor fish struck the ground than ali
exclaimed in one voice:
Ouch Murder Take it away
Ugh the nasty thing!'
Then they hold up their skirts and
gather around the fish, and all the time
the one who caught the fish is holding the
liue in both hands, with her foot on the
pole, as though .he had an evil disposed
goat at the other end. which she expected
to butt her at any moment, Then they
talk over it.
"How will we get it OFF,"
"Ain't it preity?'
Look how it pants"
"Wonder it it amt dry?"
Poor little thing, lets put it back
How will we get the hook from it?'
Pick it up" says girl, who backs
rapidly out of the circle.
Good gracious! Pm afraid of it,
There it's opening its mouth at ME"
Just then the fish wiggles off the hook
apd disappears in the water, and the girls
try fer another bite.

An old woman, dim eyed and bent, sat
on bench at the door of hut in spring
time. Above her head rose tree that
bad just put on its first leaves. Behind
her ran river, down which a vessel was
making way in the direction of the sea.
On the roof of the little hut, birds were
resting in the fresh, warm air. Near the
old wOman's feet sat little girl who had
been reading. The book lay open at her
side,
The little girl looked up at the old wo.
man with wonder and child.ike pity,
"Shall ever be like that p thought the
little child. "Cau do anything for you
granny" said ste.
And granny. 6ozing in the run, thought
to herself, "Ah, my voice was once like
that, and my feet and hands we're swift to
nelp; out now L am old.
The wind blew softly, the birds chirp-
ed, and she dozed off into q dream of her
own childhood. The fields we're green
around her, for it was full spring; the
doves were cooiDg; and she was playing
with ball by the side of her mother.
River, river, where are you flowing to E?
The river, which came from the noun.
tains, is going to the sea, where it will be
lost in the great world of waters.
The trees and hill.sides will put on q
deeper green, fer the summer will follow
the spring. But the summer, too, will
pass; the brown autumn will come; the
leaves will fall ; the winds will blow; and
some night, when the little girl is asleep.
a frost will kill of the last struggling
flower. Good bye, flower! goodbye,
leavesl But you will come again in the
spring.
Aud what will the little maid do? She
also will pass through spring to summer,
from summer to autumn, and SO on
through the failing years, to the wintry
days. Then some one shall give her back
the love and care she gave in her own
early springtime to the old and feeble
grandmother.

There sits Miss Manning over the dead
body of one who had noble intentions, but
died without performing them. Silently
she sits alone with the dead. Ills spirit
has gone above, while his body remains
to moulder back to dust. She prepares
the corpse as best she can and searches to
find some clue to who and what he is.
She finds some writings which tell the
story OF the Hermit. 1t was no other
than Hans Sachs, and be was working to
claim the love of Clara Manning. In his
will he bequeathed to his lady friend all
his paintings which afterwards adorned
her house.
After these papers were read she places
them in her pocket and returned to her
home and hasted back with her friends to
bury Hans Sachs.
A while after the city of--was filled
with excitement, Mr.. Prince, the guardian
of Hans Sachs was on trial, charged with
retaining most Of his money. The case,was
at last decided, and Mr.. Prince became
an inmate of the State prison, while his
son, CHARLES Prince, the"Shallow Egotist,'
becoming depraved, died drunkard.

The Dam Roaring.

Ayouug gentlem man went to see the
daughter Of a presbyterian elder, lately,
whose hluse was near mill dam. 1t
being in the spring of the year the water
made considerable roar as it tumbled
over the dam. TIE modest young man
tapped lightly at the door at first, and re-
ceived no answer. Again and again he
repeated his knock, but still he was un
heard. Mastering up courage, he pro-
ceeded to infict Some severe thsmps on
the door, which brought the staid old
gentleman out.
81 suppose" said the youngster, who
bad by this time become slightly savage
for being compelled to wait 50 long, Il
suppose you could not hear m Knocking
on account CT the dam roaring"
The daun roaring? What do you mean

said the diviue, somewhat nugered at
hearing the young mall swear in his pres.
ence.

could not hear my knock on account of

scoundrel Have you the impudence to
insult me with the repetition of these
words? Begone, sir.
My dear sir,' quoth the now bewil'
dcred youth. II intended to say that |
presumed that could nor be heard on
account of the daa roaring" laying a
particular stress on the last two words.
Insult on insult !" shouted the infu-
rated old man. and rushed at the poor
fellow with the evident intention OF eject
ing him, but vas restrained by the voice
of his daughter, oxclaming:

"Ohl beg your pardon, sir-walk in
