SalOnica.

The scene of the fatal riot between
Christians and Turks, reported by tel
egraph, is city and seaport of Euro
pean Turkey, the next place in CONNER
cial Importance after Constantinople.
1t is situated at the southwestern ex-
tremity of the Gulf of Salonica, and is
the seat of an Ottoman departmental
government. The population numbers
about $4,000 persons, the larger pro-
portion being Israelites; most of the
remainder Turks, Greeks, and Franks.
The city has a very imposing appear
ance. 1t stands by hill slope, sur
rounded by whitewashed and painted
walls, and it is ornamented by numer-
Gus minarets and domes, and laid out
with gardens of cypress. 1t is COM
manded by a large citadel named the
Seven Towers. One of it gates was
built in honor of Augustus after the
battle of Phillippi. Within the citadel
is triumphaf arch erected under Mar
Gus Aurelius. Several of the mosques
have been originally pagan temples;
one, WHICH Is wholly uHInJuTeu, WIS
temple of Venus. The mosque of st.
Sophia is handsome model of that at
Constantinople. Salonica has large
trade in British produce. The exports
consist chiefly of wheat, barley, maize,
wool, sponges, raw silk, tobacco, and
slaves. Cicero resided in the city dur
ing his exile. 1t was raised to the rank
of a Roman colony by Valerian.

The Reading Pa.) Eagles cor
respondent reports that last week as he
was passing the farm of wealthy
Bethel Township farmer, his attention
was called to woman in the distance
who was following after span of spir-
tied horses attached to large spike
harrow. AS she approached near she
was seen to be the daughter of the
owner of the premises, beautiful
young lady of about nineteen summers.
She was cheerfully walking behind the
harrow, in the plowed ground, line in
hand, guiding the horses, and when she
came to the fence a Betawoa!' was
uttered as clearly and distinctly as
though she had never done any thing
else but drive team. The Eagle repre-
sentative approached and remarked that
her work was hard for one of her sex,
when she replied, "Oh, no; cheer
fully do this She then said that she
rose at O'Clock in the morning, MIXED
ten COWS, fed the pigs, then helped to
get breakfast ready, and by six O'Clock
went out into the damp field to COM
plete her days work. After few re-
marks about the grain-fields, the wealth
er, etc, she turned her horses and off
she went across the field.

Romantic RevOIutiOnists.

A Wilmington IN. Co. paper tells
romance of the Revolution, which ro-
mances, by the way, abound this Cen
tennial year. 1t says that during the
occupancy of Wilmington by portion
of Lord Cornwallis's army, an English
officer, who had been desperately smit-
ten by the charms of an American
beauty, wrote the name of the fair one
on pane of glass in the house in which
he was CHARTERED. Subsequently he
married the young lady, and the young
couple, after spending some years
abroad, passed the remainder of their
lives in New York. By singular CO.
incidence their son, nearly half CEN
tury afterward, being a visitor at the
house in question, recognized the name
on the glass as his mothers. And now
comes another incident of the legend.
Recently a son of the visitor, and
grandson of the British officer, being
well informed of the story, came to
Wilmington to search for the historic
pane of glass. This gentleman's name
is John w. Barrow, of New York City.
When he arrived he found that the
ancient house had been remodeled by
it's present owner. Search being made,
the identical pane of glass was found,
and Mr.. Barrow took it back with him
to New York.

DiscOuraging.

A Detroit youth of IS sold so pounds
of old iron and a piece of lead pipe a
few days ago and received enough
money to carry out his long-cherished
idea of establishing weekly newspaper
which should represent the interests OF
every section of Michigan. He was will
ing to commence low down and work
up, and he established an Office in the
cellar of his fathers house, purchased
two quarts of "pi," hired his sister as
an apprentice, and work was begun on
his first number. The boy had an idea
that an independent journal would pay
best, and his first edition, which con-
sisted of seven copies of a sheet about
as large as an envelope, was devoted to
items of personal nature. 1t was rath-
CT family sheet, also, seven of the
eight items in it being hits at his father
and mother, and the lone one was bit
of advice to the school-teacher. While
he was out hunting up advertising and
soliciting subscribers his father laid the
type away to shoot cats with, his moth
er kindled the fire with the wooden
press, and when the editor and proprie-
tor returned he was given woodshed
interview and then welded to the handle
of lawn mower. He was yesterday

for new paper is dubious.-Free Press.

Sung Mt the Opening of the Centennial
Exhibition

ung Mt the Opening of the Centennis
Exhibition
Our fathers Godi from out whose hand
The centuries fall like grains of sand.
We meet to day, united, free,
And loyal to our land and thee,
To thank thee for the era done,
And trust thee for the opening one.
Here where of old, by thy design,
The fathers spake that word of thine
Whose echo is the glad refrain
OF rended bolt and falling chain,
To grace our festal time from all
The zones Of earth our guests we call.
Be with us while the New World greets
The Old World, thronging all its streets,
Unwilling all the triumphs won
By art or toll beneath the sun;
And unto common good ordain
This rivalship of hand and brain.
Thou who hast here in concord furled
The war flags of gathered world,
Beneath our Western skies fulfill
The Orient's mission of good will,
And freighted with Loves golden fleece,
Send back the Argonauts of peace.
For art and labor met in truce,
For beauty made the bride of use,
We thank thee, while withal we crave
The austere virtues strong to save,
The honor proof to place or gold,
The manhood never bought or sold!
o! make thou us, through centuries long
In peace secure, and Justice strong;
Around our gift of freedom draw
The safeguards of thy righteous law,
And, ca st in some diviner mold,
Let the new cycle shame the old!
