PRESIDENT HAYES AND THE ARMY.
The New York World takes exceptions
10 the Presidents deferring the meetingof
Congress. 1t says "The President has
issued his proclamation canvening the
houses of Congress sin anticipation of
the day fixed by law for their next meet
ing, " and calling upon them to assemble
at noon on the 18th day of October next
In this proclamation he gives his reasons
for thus convening Congress, and states
1t to be the fact that the FoIty-fourth
Congress finally adjourned "without
making the usual appropriation for the
support of the army for the fiscal year
ending June so, 1875" In these words
he plainly condemns his own action. Of
the ''year ending June 80, 1875" more
than one-quarter part will have expired
before the date fixed by him for action
by Congress upon the question Of making
or not making ''the usual appropriation
for the support CT the army" The Presi-
dent therefore calmly assumes the right
of keeping up the army for one-fourth of
year without the authority of the only
body which can legalize the support of
an army by the United States. 1t is a
matter Of common notoriety that be does
this for the political convenience of his
own Administration. But it is a pretty
serious question whether the people of
tAlS country can afford to allow an Ex-
ecutlve TO usurp in this way the constitu-
tlonal power of Congress to "ralse and
support armies" even for one-ouarter of
fiscal year the President himself hay-
ing explicitly stated that no appropriation
has been made for that purpose to cover
mat time. The question is whether any
army at all can be lawfully ''raised" or
supported in this country by the authori-
ty of the Executive alone, when Con-
sress, IN the exercise Of its own exclusive
ana absolute power to raise or not tn
rdlse, to support or not to support an
army, has deliberately chosen not to make
any appropriation for the support of am
army
The objections raired by the World
seem sound and well laid. The precedent
IS dangerous one. But we have had so
many such precedents that the people
nave grown insensible to the danger tha.
may arise from them. Still we hope that
we are on the way to a return to the
constitution as it was formerly constrped Il
andto safer times. But it seems strange
that call should be issued at this earl,
day for ameeting Of Congress in October

diligent, late and early, in his efforts to
get the laws, passed at the last session OF
the Legislature, printed and distributed
by the meeting of the May Term of the
Court of this county. They will be dis

makes about four hundred paqes, this is
very expeditions work and it is doubt
ful whether it would have been done
anywhere else in the same time. 1t GER
tainly could not have been done without
great sacrifice to the officer having it in
charge. This sacrifice the Secretary has
willingly made to meet the interest of the
State ard such people as required early
copies of the laws; as it required no small
share of the time he devotes TO his pri-
vate law practice, the sacrifice has not
been light. This expedition is certainly
very creditable to the Secretary and the

THE DIVISION OF THE OTTO
MAN EMPIRE.

1t now looks as if Russia had deter
mined to settle If possible once and for
ever the questions at issue between her
and the oppressor Of her Christian allies,
by wiping the Mohammedan power from
the map of Europe and thus realizing
also the great dream of Mrscovile am
bition. What resources Russia has to
maintain her naval power upon the Black
Sea are almost wholly unknown, for she
has carefully guarded the secret. But in
1870 she gave notice that she considered
the Treaty of Paris, which restricted her
armament, as no longer binding and
more than six years of unfettered pre-
paration may have produced force that
will surprise the world
Nothing but the presence Of such a
naval force to carry supplies across the
Black Sea to her advancing legions, on
its southern coast, is necessary to her
rapid and victorious march through Ash
attic Turkey to Constantinople. The
capital once taken, the appropriation of
the European provinces would be easy
enough, and the fall Of the eastern por-
tion OF the empire would almost certainly
follow.
Will the other nations consent to such
a sweeping conquest? The affirmative
answer seems possible now for the first
time in history. EI4gland if we judge
rightly after a most careful scrutiny of
the public indications, will only make
opposition enough to make sure OF her
own share of the booty. Egypt is anxious
for an English alliance, and has long
been maintained by English capital; if
England can therefore appropriate that
portion of the divided empire, she can
hope for nothing more. Austria will be
quite content with annexing the provinces
on her southern and eastern border
Persia will occupy Bagdad and extend
her whole border westward. Germany,
now the only rival in many respects to
the great Russian Empire, has her heart
set on extending her dominion to the sea
in another direction, and if allowed to
appropriate Holland, will abandon the
Turk to his fate. Nothing remains for
France but Palestine. To be mistress
OF the Holy Places, so sacre TO the who're
Christian world, and to bring Jerusalem
and its surroundings under the protection
of the Catholic Church, would tickle the |
national vanity and crafty large and |
party in the French Republic. |
This, and to be let alone of her old an
tagonist until she can match her In the |
field, will be all that she can exact

Cesnola collection. Although much has
been written about the great discoveries
of General Di Cesnola at Kurium. the
half has not been told. Last night. for
the first time, these wonderful relics of
art were exposed to the view ofthe mod
ern world. There are gold bracelets of
exquisite workmanship. necklaces in
beautiful patterns, earrings and finger
rings by the hundred in forms of beautv
ut to make a modern lady crazy with en-
Wy, pendant like lockets of delicious
shape, silver belts, corroded and in trag-
ments, but cleaning with engraving in
gold, and having the curves of the forms
of the Cypriote ladies', silver bracelets
and armlets in piles, gold and silver cups
OF artistic beauty, an endless catalogue of
splendor, which has lain buried 2.5oO
years, and is now shown to prove that
there is no luxury of modern times sur
passing that of old days. The Museum.
in securing this collection, has placed it.,
self on a level with the old museums of
Europe. The wonder is that all these
superb works of art belong to a period of
time hitherto unknown to art studies
They antedate the middle OF the sixth
century b. c., at which time our knowl,
edge Of Greek art heretofore began. The
ether collections of the Museum have
been rearranged. The Castella Maio,
hca remains oa exhibition, and the pic
turc gallery contains series of great
works. The Museum has never been as
attractive as this spring.
