Turkish diplomacy delights in evasion. When
last year Lord Derby proposed brief armis-
tce, the Porte suggested that it be for slX
months When the Russians claimed home
government for the insurgcnts provinces, the
Porte offset their demand by granting lib-
eral constitution which would have amazed
Palmcrston. The Turks are now considering
counter proposals to those that were submitted
bv the Conference with the acquicsccncc OF all
the Powers concerned. 1t may be safely as-
sumcd that the Porte will devise some scheme
which can be easily evaded is policy is never
sincerely liberal.

there would scarcely have been n contest at

Hustled, which were probably due far mere 10
resentment at his Presidential favoritcs than
to a consuming desire for an abandonment

A PROPHECY.


Tho following remarkable articl,
appeared as an editorial in the Phila
delpbia Times, Of February 21, 1877
at a time when the country was con
vulsed with the still unsettled issues Of
the Presidential election, and when the
Tildcn organs were predicting dire re
suits should an attempt be made tC
inaugurate Mr. Hayes President. The
article reads now so much like a politi
cal prophecy that We produce ii. II
illustrates Colonel McClure's wonder
ful sagacity as an observer Of passing
events in the political world, q quality
in which he is to-day without peel
in the profession of journalism or in
the councils of statesmen. II is this
quality, among many others, which
has enabled him to make the Tine,
the marvellous success of modern news
paper enterprises. The article in ques
ton reads as follows -
SOME THINGS WHICH ARE SETTLED.
l. Rutherford b. Hayes will be de
clarcd the next President of the United
States, will be peaccably inaugurated
with the practical assent of the whole
country, and will be sustained as the
lawful President by the whole people
while two-thirds of them believe that,
