LONDON, June 5.-The Times cor

Of the British and other embassies at
Constantinople testify that the late
Sultan committed suicide by cutting
the arteries of both arms with a pair
OF scissors. He died at the Tcheragan
Palace at ~ o clock Sunday morning,
and was buried in the tomb of Ma

telegram received in Paris asserts that

1t is generally remarked in Paris as
strange that Abdul>Aziz, who had al

have suddenly displayed so much
energy, and at the same time that his
death was of so little importance to
any one that it seemed repugnant to
attribute it TO assassination.

Franklin in PhilndeIPhia.

Mrs. Rebecca Harding Davis attrlh-
utes TO the advent of Franklin IN Phlla-
delphia, the birth, growth, and life OF
the intellect and development of that
city. She writes in ScJ,l6"erS
The advent of Franklin into the city
on the day when, ashabby lad OF seven
teen: he walked up High street MUNICH
ing his roll, really marks the date OF the
birth of intellectual life of Philadelphia.
There is not an effort for her improve
ment mental or practical, which cannot

the statesman to the smallest detail
hears somewhere the bold scrawl, Frank
In fecit.
The wisdom and scholarship of that
day were wholly drawn from books.
Franklin dealt directly with the great
natural forces, physical and human; out
of the unlikely material of his fellow
apprentices he made the philosophic
iunto; with the petty politics of the
drowsy town, he studied statecraft; q
kite and key under his keen eyes told
the secret of the hghtnings, which had
been kept for ages. Nothing was too
insignificant for the life-giving glance of
those keen eyes. He sees a seed adhoring
10 the straws on his wife's broom, plants,
tends it. and gives to the country the
before unknown broomcorn and a new
source of industry. He observes green
twig lying on a basket on the wharf,
thrown from an Amsterdam brig, plants
and tends that, and presently Pollard
willows grow wild by every stream.
He is the foremost typical American in
our history; moral rather than religious
a domestic man; faithful to his wife, yet
cultivating Platonic friendship with
other women; never losing his cool self
control, yet with keen, fine sense Of
fun; testing, one minute, a high meta
physical problem, andthe next a counter
felt dollars; always master of the present
moment, whether it demanded the
making of cases, roller and ink, which
he had no money to buy, or the construc-
ton of anew government from the ruins
of the old.

Timidity of Great Men.

Turenne, being asked whether he was
frightened at the beginning of a battle,
said: "Yes, 1 Isometimes feel great nerv-
GUS excitement, but there are many
subaltern officers and soldiers who feel
none whateverl" Conde was much agi-
tated in his first campaign. "My body
trembles, ," he said, with the actions my
soul meditates !" Frederick the Great,
at Molwitz, gave but little promise of
ever becoming soldier. 1t isreported
of one of the ablest friends of Washington
that, in his first battle, his nerves quite
gave way, and that he had to be held
to his post by two soldiers; it was as if
the hero's legs tried to carry him off in
spite ofhimself. tits obvious to remark
that distinguished men, whose nerves
have thus completely broken down may
thank their stars for being distinguished.
Much is forgiven them, for they did
much service. Had they been common
soldiers, they would have received as
little indulgence for the automatic action
of their feet as the poor receive for the
malady Of kleptomania.
Therei is, however, Especial reason why
allowances should be made for generals
whose presence of mind has failed them.
A private has only to shut his eyes to
danger and to confront it with that CHEN
de courage Of which great commander
spoke with envious disparagement. But
the skilled courags of q general is a vir-
tue of very different order. He must,
Is it we're, have two selves. In deliber-
alton, hemustcalculate the exact amount
Of danger to which heexposes his troops,
and then, in action, the calculation
must be erased from his mind. He must
often say to himself, peace, peace, !"
when he feels that there is nopeace; and
by sort ofmilitary faith, he must 6ght
as seeing safety which is invisible.
1t is true that Nelson exclaimed,
ssWhat is fear? Inever saw it." But, at
the time, Nelson was young; and against
his remark may be set the saying of
Charles ", when he saw written on a
tombstone, "Here lies man who never
knew fearr' ''Then," observed the EN-
peror, "he can never have snuf6ed a
candle with his fingers y or, as we should
say, such man can never have felt
the difficulty Of emulating the happy
fearlessness of his soldiers.-FortnightEy htEy

Nutritive Propertie. of Fruit.

That fruits, as a rule, have but small
nutritive value, has long been known.
Every school-boy finds out for himself
how soon hunger returns after a most
liberal indulgence in his neighbor's
orchard. Recently, the well-known
chemist, Dr. Fresenius, has carried out
a series of analyses, with view of de-
termining the proportion of anhydrous
albumen contained in various common
fruits. In the following list he gives
the number of parts of the different
fruits he analyzed that are required to
supply one part of albumen in the form
of nutriment for the body: Cherries,
III; English rennet apples, 1872; cur
rants, 222; grapes, 12O; blackberries,
1876; gooseberries, 227; apricots, 12O;
queen mother plums, 200; strawberries,
ISL; common plums, 210; pears, 3S5;
rGspberries, 1873: peaches, 21O; and white
dessert apples, 254 Hence, it follows
that very nearly four pounds of pears
would be required to yield as much al
bumen as is contained in an egg of fifty
grammes weight, the percentage of dry
albumen in the egg being but fourteen
or fifteen per cent. According to Pro-
fessor Volt, of Munich, a man in ordi-
nary work requires every twenty-four
hours, for his nutrition, as much albu
men as is contained in eighteen eggs,
i. e.: one hundred and fifteen grammes; ;
so that if it were required to give him
the necessary amount in the form of
pears, no less than seventy-two pounds
per diem must be eaten. Notwithstand-
ing these startling disclosures, the value
of fruit as an article of diet is not to be
despised. Not only is it the most di-
gestible in itself, but by reason of the
acid which all its varieties contain
Though oftentimes so disguised with
sugary matter as to be imperceptible to
the taste), it aids in the digestion of
other substances which are less amena-
BILE to the action of an ordinary stom-
ach. But those persons who intend be-
coming vegetarians, especially if they
have failing for pears, and expect to
grow fat on them, should be sure that
their stomach capacity is sufficiently
large before they entirely forswear the
use of fish, flesh and fowl.

Much Married.

Louis Hemmingray is a man whose
exploits in marriage among the well-to-
do people of Clermont county, Ohio,
and vicinity, have been equal in degree
to the attentions of George Magurn to
the sex. Very recently some of his
victims have taken pains to call in the
help of the law against him, and the ef-
fort has revealed a story which is scarce
ly credible. Two years ago he appeared
in the village of Cherry Grove as ped
dler of jewelry. He was intelligent and
so fascinating that he soon won the es-
TEEN of Miss Vallient, an orphan girl,
living with her grandmother, and own
ing a good property. Hemmingray
agreed to marry her. and then borrowed
$4,000 of her to start in business in
other localities. About this time it was
discovered that Hemmingray had a wife
in Indiana, and soon after he eloped
leaving Miss Vallient his creditor. Soon
afterward he married a young girl in
Kentucky, opposite New Richmond,
Ohio. Before the honeymoon was over
he deserted her. not being able to get as
much money as he expected. He next
appeared in Newton, Hamilton county,

marry a Miss Brooks, girl of some
means. Going with her to Cincinnati
on a shopping expedition one day, he
managed to get possession of her pock
etbook, and then lost her in a crowded
dry goods store. His next venture was
in Clermont county, not far from the
scene of his first marriage. He married
Miss Annie Young, and moved to Mat
toon, Illinois. There he deserted his
wife in short time, and with singular
impudence came back to Clermont
county, saying his wife would soon fol-
low him. He has now about gone his
length in this locality, and, as he is
wanted in court, he will probably trans
fer himself to pastures new. He is of
medium hight, hair slightly gray, sell

wreath, with o secret society design tat

HAYDoN ON THE DEATH OF Hrs
CH1LD.-"I have lost my youngest
daughter, the more beautiful Of the two,
and under circumstances of great sor-
row and affection. She lived but two
years and nine months, and her life was
long torture. Good Godl what an ex-
istence this isl Here is creature comes
into the world without her consent, never
speaks from pain, never walks from suf-
fering, yet conscious of hearing others
speak, and seeing others walk, and lies
gasping with, ambition to do what others
do, is seized with commissions and dies,
without the power of making her suffer
ings known, or being able to express
one desire, one want, or one necessity.
When she was in the agonies Of ap-
preaching death, put my face to hers
and said, Fanny, darling, do you know
papa p and she moaned assent, as she
used to do. Then she opened both her
beautiful and lustrous eyes, with look
which will live fresh in my imagination
till nv last hour. The last convulsion
was now approaching, and, as II con-
scious of some terrific power she could
not resist, with O frantic scream, she
held out her arms as if appealing to me.
who had always, to her senses, been able
to do, or order to be done, what she
wished; and she put out her dear arms
to me, as if saying, Save me, save mel
Ali my darling, thought, you little
know the power you appeal against.
The struggle exhausted her, she fell
back, and lay in a calm, soothing palpi-
tation, and in few minutes died with
out a sigh. And then her dear face
changed from all the agony of pain to
the angelic repose of death"

A TOUCHING INoIDENr.-One day
some men who had been condemned to
hard labor on the public works for var
ious crimes, we're occupied in repairing
one of the Vienna streets.
There passed that way a good look
ing, well-dressed young man; he stopped
near one of the convicts, embraced him
atfectionately, and went on.
A State official had been at his win
dow during this scene, and was much
astonished at it. He had the young
man brought to him, and said: "My
friend, there is something very peculiar
in embracing a convict in the street.
What Will people think Of your"
The young man said nothing for few
moments, but soon recovering himself,
he replied:
MY lord, 1 only followed the die
tates Of duty and my heart, for the con-
Tict is my father"
Touched by these words, and admir-
ing the noble conduct of the young
man the official hastened to tell the en-
peror what had happened. The sover-
eign recognized the beauty of the filial
act, and gave the convict's son an i'm.

cray was at one time a welcome visitor
at the house of Lady Ashburton, who
was somewhat free with her tongue and
her opinion of others. Something that
the saucy hostess said offended her
guest, and he not only declined her in
vitations, but spoke of her with discour-
tesy. Some months after, when his an
CRY feelings had died out, he received
