Critical Situation of AGai


LONDON, May 1.-THE Telegraph says: If
we be not mistaken, the English ambassador
at Constantinople has informed the govern
ment that the situation is critical. A violent
outbreak, of which the Christians will become
the victims, may occur at any moment through
out Turkey aud even in Constantinople. We
would not be surprised, therefore, if the English
Mediterranean squadroa was ordered imme-
diately to Besekir Bay at the mouth of the
Hellespont, as in the Crimean war.
Count Andrassy's Views.
A despatch to the Post, from Berlin, says it
is understood that Count Andrassy, the Aus
trian premier. expressed views strongly adverse
to Austrian armed intervention in the Turkish
comp LEGATIONS.
A New Commander.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, May 1.-THE Sultan has
dismissed the Grand Vizier and summoned to
Constantiople Hassein Avni Pasha who is con-
sidered the head of theIwar party and who it is
rumored is to be appointed either Grand Vizier
or Generalissimo of the Turkish army.
No Arrests in Salonica.
PARIS, May lie Temps says that no
arrests have yet been made in Salonica. The
bodies of the victims remained unbur!ed yes
terday, The assassinati on is not an isolated
occurrence, The Musselmen were previously
much excited over the news from Herzegovina
and had assembled several times for tie pur
pose of preparing for massacre of the Christ
iaus.
The French consul at Salonica had been in
suited several times. Dispatches from Saloni-
ca as late as yesterday evening say that fresh
disturbances are apprehended there. The
Christians have closed their shops. The mill
tary force was insufficient to restrain a mob.

CENTENNIAL EXHIBITION.
10000 Visitors tthe First Day-Move-
ments of Distiuguisfed Persons, &c.

t
PHILADELPHIA, MAY 1.-THE attendance at
the exhibition today is estimated at from 25,-
900 to 10000 up to l o'clock. Many distin-
guished guests are visiting the exhibition to-
day. Several foreign ministers including those
of England and Chilli are on the grounds. and
GERS, and nearly all the state governors and
other dignitaries who attended yesterday.
The weather is delightful with the exception OF
a high wind which raises great clouds OF dust.
Most of the distinguished persons VINO
participated in the opening l.i o ceaemG IN
the city, but their moy ements during the day
have been of private character. PRESIDENT
Grant and Secretary Fish, who are guests OF
Geo. W. Chllds, received calls during the
morning and then went out to visit friends.
This evening the President and the members
of his cabinet remaining in the city dned with
Sir Edward Thornton at st. Georges Hall.

for Washington.

row. Secretaries Chandler and Robson, and
Attorney General Pierrepont still remain as
guests of Hon. A. e Borie.
One of the principal points about the city
just now is old Independence Hall. The original
Declaration OF Independence and the original
commission of Washington as COmmander-ln-
Chief of the American armies, which are in
fire proof safe, fully exposed to view, attract
great attention from all visitors. One of the
first visitors at the Exposition grounds this
morning was the Emperor of Brazil. His stay
was brief, and after short stroll through the
grounds he left the city accompanied by the
Brazilian ministers and three or four attend
ants, for Wilmington, Del, to inspect the large
manufacturing establishments. He returned
to the city in the afternoon to attend the BAN
quet given tonight by the British ministers.
Ex-Speaker Blaine and a number OF Congress-
men also visited the grounds this morning.
No official report of the exact number OF
the grounds Wednesday, but the closest esti-
mates puts the number az $1,000, of whom 3d.
600 entered free. The official figures for to-
days attendance are $4,000.

UNIVERSALLY
RECOMMENDED.

We have just received October. 1879 communica-
ton from nearly every druggist in New England,
and the testimony is universally in favor of SAN
FoRD's RADICAL CURE FOR CATARRH. We believe
there never was remedy so popular wherever
known, and certainly we feel that never was one
more deserving Of praise. Founded upon correct
scientific principles and calculated by the most
complished physicians to meet the severest forms of
Catarrb the made by it have not only been
merous, but so remarkable TO excite public atten-
ton and the sale to exceed tenfod that of any
similar remedy ever before compounded.
While many are anxious to make public their tes-
timony in favor of the RADICAL CURE, others-and
among this number may be found many of our most
respected citzens-dislike to become publicly ident-
fed with so loathsome disease. Hence, in the fol-
lowing case we are unable to give the name but are
permitted to state the severity and condition OF the
case before and after using the RADICAL CURE, and
also that the gentleman occupies responsible office
in one of our State institutions. We quote:-
81 would not for the world permit my name to be
used, although have doubt it would be of bene-
fit to many now suffering l have suffered; but
give you brief statement ofmy case:-
"For two years 4 have taken bromide of
pOfassa and bromide of ammonia every
day. L never passed n single night with
out getting up once or twice TO free my
throat from the matter that had dropped
tnto ~ shcCP, anu Il
during all this time. Since taking the
RADICAL CURE have taken pofas-
sa or ammonia. have slept soundly every
night without uneasiness or distress; moi n
particle of matter has dropped into my
throat during sleep, and every symptom Of
a cough has Left me.''
wonderful result truly, all will say. who know or
can realize the extent and severity of this case. The
gentleman has had eighteen bottles. This must sat
sy the sceptical and there is great merit in the RAD
ICAL CURE. Its mode OF preparation is new and Or
igina Ignoring the old practices and remedies DIR.
Sanford selected new field, and has demonstrated
his method to be the only proper and never falling
treatment.
The following recommendations are from

Liability of Foreigners to Extraordinary
Contributions.

HAVANA, May ia decree has been issued
declaring that claims made by foreigners resid-
ing in the Island and by some of their consuls
to exemption from extraordinary contributions
are founded in error. All foreigners under
the protection of the government must pay
like Spanish subjects the taxes levied in ac-
cordance with articles 80 and "a of the act re-
lating to strangers passed by the Cortes in 1870.
The contributions imposed in this Island can
not be said to be for war. The pursuit and
pun ishment of incendiaries, principally ne
groes who have no army in our territory is not
war; The treaties between Spain and other
countries exempt foreign residents from the
confiscation of their vessels the forced occupa-
ton of landed property and personal military
duty, but not from taxes and contributions rem
oerea necessary Tor the protection OF the prop
Therefore all municipalities must proceed
against foreigners who refuse to pay said tax
eS.
This decree is understood to be principally
directed against Germans who claim exemption
under the treaty between Germany and Spain
