600 cantars the two preceding years
showing an excess Of $4,000 cantar,
$4,000 bales) over those in 1875. On
the twentieth Of December the excess
had been reduced TO lI6, 600 cantars,and
it was expected that il would disappear
with the first week in january, when a
continued falling off would leave the
crop 10000 to 60, 000 hlacs short of that
of last year, namely 10000 to 1000
bales of six hundred pounds each against
lGS,OOO and 437 900 bales in lSSj.76 and
1915. From the other Mediterranean
ports the imports have remained singu.
Iarly stationary, amounting to about
100000 bales OF three hundred and eigh.
ty pounds each, and this will probably
be the supply of the season.
The Bra2ils, which supplied Europe
in the years 1877 to 1874 inclusive on an
average with 100000 bales year, sent
100000 bales in 1875, and last year only
100000 bales. AS the low prices ruling
must have prevented an extended
growth an increase can hardly be ex.
pccted. The bales weigh, however, only
one hundred and sixty pounds, and 25,-
0OO to 10000 bales more or less are of
little consequence.
The constant decline on the value has
had the same effect on the import from
the West Indies, Peru, etc. 100000
bales were received in 1871 ll3, 900 bales
in 1885, ,andlast season only 9S, 900 bales

healthier, happier, middle state. With
northern homes she is intimately ac-

the greater privilege of intimacy in En-

Charles Dido, now on his way from Ogden

ing at 8:15, having made the distance from
Goleonda, 19 miles, in 4 hours and 40 min

will leave in the morning, so as to reach Mill

Beowawe by making a misstep on tie,

several hours. Roadmaster Mills, who hap
pened along at this juncture, sent him some
liniments from Battle Mountain, which re-
moved all soreness from the stiffened joint
and enabled him to resume his journey. At

very beneficial to him, and he came into

The Greek Church and the Car.

Wherein does the Greek Church
differ from the Catholic Church ?
Does the Car sustain the same reia-
tionship to the Russian Church that
the Pope does to the Roman Catholic
Church |?
We answer this question In gener-
al way. The points in which the
Gr9co-Russian Church differs from
the Roman Catholic are : 1t denies
the spiritual supremacy of the Pope, it
prohibits the celibacy of the clergy, it
authorizes all individu uals to read and
study the Scriptures in the vernacular
tongue, it rejects the doctrine of pur-
gatory, and has nothing to do with
works of ofsupereFogation, indulgences
and dispensations, and recognizes no
one as the visible vicar of Christ on
earth. We purposely avoid the finer
distinctions of doctrinal points. No
priest can perform any spiritual func-
tion before he is married, nor after he
becomes a widower. The general
church governments is similar to that
of the Roman Church.
The Russian Church separated from
the See of Rome in 1854, and from

POLITICAL NOTES

Whateverthe ultimate effects ofthe
southern policy its first fruits are nei-
ther fair nor to the taste of loyal men.
Republicans all know this. Even
they know il who cover their chagrin
with the roseate mantle of their hopes.
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.
The constitution and the laws obvi-
ously go for nothing. A commission
makes the president in contempt OF
the popular vote commission pulls
down and sets up state governments.
We are Mexicanizing so fast that ev-
erythiug IL connection with our poll
tical movements begins to look like
the "noble works of chance ?"-NeO
York World.
Referring to the talked-of discussion
of Hayes policy I'm the state conVen-
ton, the NonpdrieL says there is no
occasion for aught but harmony. This
question does not enter into state pol
itics and its introduction could be
viewed only in the light of q deHber-
ate attempt to disrupt the party.
The action of the president post
poning the special session of congress
till October meets with almost univer-
sal approval. The only exception to
this judgment is on the part of class
of democrats whose whole political
stock in trade consists ofOppOsition to
every republican smeasUre. If the
democratic members of the last con-
gress had done their duty instead Of
consuming the session In political
wrangles and so-called investigations,
started and conducted solely for polit-
ical effect, the appropriation bills
would all have been passed and there
would have been no necessity for an
extra session. The people want repose
and every business interest demands
1t. They fear that congress will disturb
the steady progress as towards better
times and they are glad to see the ses-
sion put off as long as possible. Moth
ing could be better except no special
session but this blessing the demo-
Gratis have rendered impossible.-Ln-

1t is stated that there is division
in the Georgia Democracy, but the in
formation is volunteered that this d.

cling the President, his policy, and the
party that elected him. And the Pres
ldent and his policy and the party can
probably stand it.-Inter Ocean.

The occurrence (the Mississippi
masaore) is significant, as showing
the temper of the whites. Doubtless,
IL is possible to have peace and order
in Mississippi ultimately, from the
reign of democracy, but IL will only
be when all obnoxious republicans are
killed off.-NeaU York Times.
The killing of Republican leaders
white and black will continue as here
tofore. Why not? Is any one fool
enough to think that the delivery OF
South Carolina and Louisiana into
Democratic hands would purify the
bloody hands of Democracy or change
for the better their tyrannical and
murderous disposition? They are
going TO render imperative the Con-
stitutional Amendments, undo what
ever has been done under reconstruc-
tion laws. and any head that dare be
raised, down there, In opposition to
this well-known Democratic policy,
will be laid low.

Byzantine patriarchate in 1889. Ithas

maintains the relations of a sister
church with the four patriarchate
of Constantinople. Jerusalem, Anti
och and Alexandria. The sacred sy-
nod of the Greek Church was estab-
lisbed with the concurrence ofthe Rus
sian clergy and the four Eastern patri-
archs. The Car is not the head of
the church in the same sense as the
Pope of Rome. He is officially termed
the protector or defender of the church.
The Car appoints to every Office in
the church, but has never claimed the
right of deciding theological and dog
matte questions. The judgment of
the church being once given the Car
commands Its tseXecution.--Inter Ocean.

The chief supporter of Mr Hayes
and his policy, in these parts, is q
prominent democratic attorney of this
city.-ButEer County Republican.
We frequently see such statements
as the above. Such support Is given
TO President Hayes not because such
supporters believe he has dealt out
Justice to any from whom it has hith-
erto been withheld, or that he has
done come great and noble deed but
simply because they are impressed
that a huge brogan has crushed the
political niger out of sight, that the
Amendments have been rendered
null and void, the Republican party
souelched and the Democratic party
correspondingly elevated. If ever
these "chief supporters" are unde-
ceiyed by finding that the negro has
heen blessed instead of cursed by the
Presidents policy, they VIII curse
him and his policy, as heartily as
they now endorse them.

ing the main portion of the centre
free to continue its advance. The left
wing marched southwark, and on the
30th of April captured the strong posi-
tion of Bayszid, near the Persian from
tier about seventy miles south of Kars
and 135 miles southeast Of ElzerOum.
Advancing from this point, Turkish
force was encountered and forced
back, while the Russian army kept
on to cooperate with the centre.
Erzeroum is the objective point of all
three divisions of the army. and the
Souganla Mountains are the key to
Erzeroum. The right wing may be
able to turn them. but the left and
centre must force the passes, and at
this point the next great battle may
be looked for.
