THE SECRET OF IT-An item of news very
illustrative of the true inwardness of the Con-
federate Congress, comes .over the wires from
Washington. The committee on ways and
means has decided to report concurrent reso-
luton that both houses shall adjourn next
Monday. But Morrison, the chairman of the
COMMITTEE, says he does not intend to present
the resolution till Friday. His reason is to
avoid the rule which permits suspension of the
rules the last ten days of the session, and he
says that if the adjournment resolution should
be adopted now, rebel war-claims to the amount
of two hundred million dollars would be offered
and passed by the Democratic majority, before
the ten days were over. The more cool-head ed
Democrats have had the utmost difficulty. by
the use of every parliamentary device, in re-
pressing this demonstration thus far, and if the
rules were once suspended they could do moth
ing to restrain the Southern members, who left
home with the solemn promise to their constitu-
ents to get them the pay for their niggers, cot.
ton, bacon, and everything else lost in the war,
which they can bring in a bill for. They have
been put off with the assurance that things
were not quite ripe. Tilden must be elected
first, and until then the less said about their
war claims the better.

THE TURKISH WAR.
Arab Troops Offered TO the SuItan-NIas
sacre in SnyPua.

Arab Troops Offered to the suItan-Mas-
sacre in Smyrna.
PARIS, Aug. 3-The Constantinople CORE
spoudent of the Gaulois says that three Sheiks
Of Mecca have placed 100000 Arabian troops at
the disposal of the Turkish government, and
some Of those forces are already awaiting Or
ders to start The Basni Bazouks are not to be
compared in ferocity with the Zeibeks. The
latter, at Smyrna, slew all the people in the
streets, and the town is in an indescribable
state Of terror. The Turks feel strongly in re-
gard to the meddling of foreign nations with
the internal affairs of the Ottoman empire.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Aug. 3-The statement
telegraphed to the Paris Gaulois that the Zeib-
eks had lied all the people in the streets of
Smyrna is absurd. A letter to the Times signed
by the inhabitants of Smyrna says
Thirty five volunteers arrived on July 18th
from the interior to embark for the seat of the
Turkish war. They were permitted to parade
through the Frank quarter en- route, for the
barracks, and they plundered some shops AMI
injured about a dozen persons, two seriously.
The COnsuls visited the Governor and demand
ed the punishment of the culprits and security
in the future, both of which were promised.
Even this is an ex-parte statement adverse to
the Turks
The Austrians Preparing TO Occupy
Servia.
LONDON, Aug. "a Berlin correspondent of
hear from Belgrade that great apprehen-
sions are entertained there that Austria will
occupy Servia with military force in the in
terest of European peace. My informant
declares that such course has already been
determined upon, and an arrangement is max
ing to mobilize 10000 men for this purpose.
Con firmation of the report is wanting, but M.
Ristchs, the Servian PREMIER is urging an arm
stce in order to avoid this eventuality.
Mukhtar Pasha's Position.
A Vienna special says that Mukbtar Pasha
is reported in difficult position. The Monte.
negrins occupy his line of communication from
Trebinje to the north, and also hold possession
of the heights of Ljabaler, cutting off his
chances of relief If the Montenegrins should
sever his communications with Ragusa, Mukh-
tar will be unable to feed his troops for any
length of time.
Reported Turkish Success.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Aug. 3.-Oficial des-
pathes state that the Turks have captured Ser
Wan fortified positions near Gurgasovatz,
inficting heavy loss upon the Servians
1t is believed that the Turkish General
Tehernayeff is at Saitschar.

North Conway has been called the Paradise
of Artists, and it deserves the title, for it looks
out upon the most beautiful part of the valley
of the Saco; and presents the best distant view
which can be obtained of the great hills.
From the piazza of the Kearsarge House the
outlook ona clear morning, with Mt. Washing
ton seemingly within touching distance. is
wonderfully fine. In the immediate neighbor-
hood the scenery is very attractive The Con-
way intervals and elms, the Lodges and the
graceful mountain which towers over the vii
lage, all command admiration. Many improve
ments have been made this season. The paths
to the Lodges, the Cathedral and other objects
of interest on the right bank of the Saco have
been SO enlarged that access is now easy. A
new bridge has been built over the river, and
the village association is continuing its work of
identifying the left bank. But by far the most
important step taken is the projected construc
ton of carriage road to the summit of Kear-
sarge, affordng mountain view, easy of &C.
cess, and second only to that from Washington
ITSELF The road has already been surveyed,
and the work of construction will begin this
fall. The estimated cost is $4,000. 1t will be
eight miles in length, from the Kearsarge
House to the summit. This hotel, by the way,
the largest at North Conway, is in the high
tide of success under the Management of S. w.
Thompson, the pioneer landlord of the place,
who started business over fifty years ago. A
fine lawn is being rolled at its front. and other
improvements made. Here may be found MI.
Fl. w. Ripley, the agent of the Glen House,
who is prepared to furnish transportation to
the Glen and to the summit of Mt. Washing
ton at reduced rates Tourists will find it for
their advantage to call upon him. He is now
passing his thirty-ninth summer in the noun
tains, and is thoroughly familiar with the re-
gi0n. Fortunate the traveller who can secure
him as cicerone on the beautiful ride to the
Client The other houses at North Conway are
doing well. The homelike Mcmillan under
the shadow of its great elms is as favorits a
place of resort as ever, and its genial host
leaves nothing unprovided which can go to the
pleasure and comfort of his guests. 1t is, as
always, doing large business.
1t may interest Portland people t, know that
prominent Portland physician expresses the
decided opinion that the air of North Conway
is eminently beneficial to those afflicted with
lung troubles.
Among the improvements at the village
mention should not be omitted of the rebuild
ing of the fine Bigelow cottage, destroyed by
fire last year

Among the bodily ills susceptible of complete

ters Stomach Btters, are general debility maarial
fevers, constipation, dyspepsia, liver disorder, and
nervousness Its remedial capabilities are, however
by no means limited to these malades. Its proper
ties as blood depurent render it extremely service
able in expeling the acrid impurities which produce
those painful disorders, rheumatism and govt, and
Its invigoratng and mildly stimulating effect upon
the kidneys and bladder constitute it a useful
medicine for impellipg those organs to complete
performance of their functions when they are weak

of which weakness is an accompaniment, in which
this admirable medicine cannot be used with
advantage.

THE WHISKY PROSECUTIONS,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-Ex-Supervisor Tut.
ton testified to-day that he did not discover
anything duplicating Senator Logan or Far
well in the ,whiskey frauds; that Yaryan pre-.
tended to know the revenue laws but knew
pediments in the way of prosecuting the
whiskey frauds in Chicago, only by believing
that Yaryan was in with the whiskey ring. he
told General Babcock that the story of $4,000
being paid by Bluford Wilson to Mr.. Wash
nurn, TO provide for General Babcock's convic.
ton was undoubtedly untrue, and so far as he
CTutton) was concerned, it was false. He be-
lleVed that immunity granted to leading mem
bers of the fChicago whiskey ring was wrong
and prevented large number of convictions.
The committee has postponed the further ex-
animation of Bluford sWison until Saturday
morning. Several other witnesses will be ex-
amined tomorrow afternoon.
