however, agree as TO the following par
ticu,ars: TLc Ministers assembled
Monday afternoon at the residence "i

that. unless some renc,.ia' measures
were adopted, = universal rebellion and
general collapse of State would result.
4 resolution was adopted embodyinS

slider the matter. Oh Tuesday morn

by Sofas, formed in procession and
marched TO the Sultan's palace, unop-
posed by the military, WHO were appa-
rently unproyidcd with orders how to
act in case of such an emergency. Dur
in. its progress the procession was in

A VERY sensational feature in the
Blaine investigation occurred OH the list,
when a witness named Mulligan, of Bos-
ton, gave an account OF an interview
with Blaine, 1t the request OF the latter,
on the evening previous, upon which
occasion Blaine supplicated witness, for
the sake of his wife and children,
TO deliver up some letters written
BY him (Blaine), which witness
had in his possession, the publication OF
which he (Blaine) said would ruin him
(Rlaine) forever. Witness allowed
Blaine to take them, under promise that
he would return them. which he after
ward refused to do. While this state
ment was being made, MIR. Blaine 81.
opposite the witness and exhibited con-
siderable mirth at his recital, particu-
larly when Mulligan said he CBlaine)
had threatened to commit suicide unless
the letters were given up. Mr.. Blaine,
at the conclusion of Mulligan's evi-
dence, said that the letters in question
were some private letters, in no wise
relating to the subject under in
vestigation, and that Mulligan's svi'
dence As to his threatening to
commit suicide, ETC., was unquaii'
fiedly false. The Chairman of the
Committee then asked Mr.. Blaine to
produce the letters for the perusal of the
committee, with the understanding that
they should not be made public unless
they were pertinent to the matter un'

the present he would decline to accede
