Kansas farmers think they have Matched so
early they will not be able to await the COM

L.. INVASION, &C., &C. '..
LONDON, April PA special from Vienna
to the Times says: Quite panic reigns in
Roumania about the Turkish INVASION. Tue
Roumanian Government has applied in its
extremity to the Powers, and is becoming
more pressing in its demand to be saved
from the Circassians and Bashi-Bazouks.
They have also turned to the Turkish Gov
ernment, demonstrating against the occupa-
ton of Roumania by the Turkish troops.
The answer has not been Teassuring, Tur-
key saying the passage Of Turkish troops to
the Roumanian side would depend on Turk
ish military affairs, but that il this happens
in consequence Of the entry Of Russian
troops, the Porte declines the responsibility
for Roumania being turned into theatre
Of war. - .-s,as ras~
"A special dispatch from Vienna to the
Telegraph says :.i.s". Roumania caunot pre-
vent the passage of the Russian armies
through, her territory, as she has vainly
sought support to do so from the Powers
but she. can and will vigorously alb
stain from armed participation If Turkey
does not cross the Danube also, and will
herself occupy Kalaiort with her own
troops to prevent the Russians getting that
positions. But IL Turkey persists in its pro
posed action Roumania will be compelled
to cast her otWith the only Power capable
OF affording her material protection against
such a terrible calamity. Rounania,s posi-,
,tion is one of critical and imminent peri. p
S "A Reuter- telegram from Bucharest has

1.-THE CONFLICT OF Acks.p

Men differ on nearly every issue. There have
always been opposite parties in politics and relig
ion, though the measures fought over one day
may be universally adopted at another, and those
sacrificed regarded IS heroes aud martyrs
Medicine has also been subject to Evolutionary
disturbances. When Drs. Harvey and
Jenner announced their discoveries they
were held in contempt and ridicule by an
incredulous and ignorant public, yet to-day they
are received and houored by all a. benefactors.
When Dr. Pierce announced his Discovery, many
seemed to doubt, and were skeptical concerning
all medicines and doctors, but proof Of merit has
dispelled all doubt, and to-day the Golden Med-
cal Discovery is the standard remedy in curing
the most obstinate diseases of the liver and blood,
having almost entirely superseded the old time
sarsaparillas by reason of its superior merits.

THE CRESCENT AND THE CROss.-We have been
wont to hear Of the progress and triumphs Of
Christianity; but mp to the present, it looks as
If Mohammedanism hal been too much for it. In
the time of the Crusades, the Christian Chvalry
of Europe bent all their efforts towards rescuing
the tomb Of Christ from the Infdels. Constan-
tine, the first Christian Emperor, rs-christined
Byzantium ConstantinOple, in honor of himself,
and made it the capital of the Roman Empire
1t was the great rallying point of the Knights
to tako up their march for the Holy Land. The
latter country perhaps contains the bones of more
Christian Princes and brave soldiers slain in bat
tie, than any other land on the globe. Yet the
Christians failed to drive the Mohammedsns'fron N,
the Holy Land, but in return, were driven from
Constantinople, which has ever since been in
possession of tho Mohammedans, despite all efforts
to drive them ont. England furnished large
proportion of the soldiers of the Cross, in the
time of the Crusades, yet it has been greatly
through her influence and interference that the
Turks held large portion of Europe. She has
kept nation of barbarians established in the
most important part Of Europe, simply from mo-
tives of trade and barter, and as q check upon
the commerce of rival nations. II fEngland inter
feres again. as she is likely to do, she deserves
not only to be soundly whipped, but to have the
Fenians rise on her hands, aud Loosen her grip
on Ireland and Canada.
