moBrLIzTsG THE RUSSIAN

A mobilization in Russia is a matter OF
no SMALL difficulty, on account . the ex-
tent and scanty population of the terri
tory, the scarcity of communication, and
the precautions which require to be taken
against the population in Poland and
other provinces. Th country indeed is
divided into a certain number Of recruit
ing districts, but as the corps belonging
to these districts are generally ~quartered
elsewhere, when the order for mobiliza-
ton goes forth there is a chasser-croisez

Az regards the artillery, Its mobilization
requires supplement of 10000 horses.
Under the most favorable circumstance
the mobilization Of the Russian army
cannot be effected znder from five to six
weeks. AS regards the army that Russia
can bring into the field against Turkey,
after securing her frontiers in Europe and
Asia, it IS requisite to bear in mind that

Feeding or Got,

1t is the grand endeavor of the gospel
o communicate God I men. They
ave undertaken to live without Him,
and do not See that they are starving
n the bitterness of their experiment.
It is not, as with bodily hunger, where
they have a sure instinct compelling
them to seek their food, but theygo after
the husks, and would fain be filled nth
these, not even so much as conceiving
what is their real want, or how it comes.
For it is a remarkable fact that SO few
men, living in the flesh, have any con-
ception that God is the necessary supply
and nutriment of their spiritual ma
ture, without which they famish and die.
1t has an ex~travagant sound when they
hear it. They do not believe it. How
can it be that they have any such high
relations to the eternal God, or He to
them? It is as if the tree were to say,
what a | a mere trunk of wood, all
dark and solid within, standing fast in my
rod of ground-what can I have to do
with the free, moving air, and the bound
less sea of light that fills the world ?'
And yet it is a nature made to feed on
these, taking them into its body to supply.
and vitalize and color, every fiber of its
substance. Just SO it is that every finite
spirit is inherently related to the infinite,
in Him to live, and move, and have its
being. 1t wants the knewledgeo of God, the
eternal manifestation of God, the appro.
batioG of God, a consciousness lighted
up by His presence, to receive His
~fuliness, to be strong in His might, to
rest in His love, and be centered ever
lastingly in His glory. Apart from
Him, it is an incomplete creature, a
poor, blank fragment of existence, hun
cry, dry and cold. And still, alasl it
cannot think SO. Therefore, Christ
comes into the world to incarnate the
divine nature, otherwise u~nrecognized,
before; SO to reveal God to its knowl-
edge, enter with Him into its faith and
feeling, make Him its living bread, the
food of its eternity. Therefore of His
flllness we are called to feed, receiving
of Him freely grace for grace. When
He is received He restores the conscious
ness oil God, fills the soul with the d.
vine light, and Gets it in thsL connection
with God, which is life-eternal life

If argument is needed to prove the
im~mutabillty of the Word of God, it
viii surely be sufficient to appeal to the
testimony of the past. Through sixty
centuries which have borne perpetual
testimony to the changeableness of every
thing human, which have altered even
the emblazoned record of the starry
heavens, and changed the dumb but elo-
quent utterances of the stratifed rocks
beneath our feet, the Word Of God has
not changed in the least particular; not
enc jot or title of it mas failed. Its
prophecy has either proven itself "a sure
word" in She actual v~erifcation of it;
or it stands awaiting fulflIment at the
pleasure Of Him, with whom "a thou
sand years are as n day"
There is not one prophetic utterance
in the sacred canon yet unfulflled, Of
which human reason can say without
blushing for it's perverseness, that it is
not likely to be fulfilled. The testimony
Of history to the truth of Divine Prpho-
ecy would put such cayils to instant
shame. The moral history of our race
is a grand volume OF proof of the fixed
ness Of the Divine world. The curse
pronounced against sin, and the blessing
declared as the fruit of righteousness,
have had fulfllments innumerable il

until we should ssoner expect the sea.
sons to change places, than the curse
and the blessing to be inverted or e
cease. What has been for 80 long .
period az six thousand years, we may
well conclude, by the deductions Q
human logic and irrespectively of divine
affirmation, will be while time endures
From the past we may read the future
in respect Of Gods eternal government
The preservation of the literal Word o
God, amid the successive wrecks o
human literature, and its advancin;
poyer over the minds and intellects o
men, are inferential and impressive testi
monies to the indestructibility and i'm

The Heat DRramG

Of failing energy, that to which the tagged.
out man of business, the brain-fatigued
author, the tired advocate or the weary art
isan can resort with the greatest certainty
that it will revive his overweight powers,
is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. a most genial
tonic cordial, as well as a benign remedy for
disorders of the stomach, liver, bowels, and
urinary organs, and a means of graduating
and preventing intermittent and remittent
fevers. 1t not only enriches the blood and
creates a new fund of energy in the system,
but it has the effect of expelliDg impurities
from the life>current which beget disease.
The injurious influence of abrupt transitions
of temperature, of an unwholesome climate
and injurious diet, are counteracted by it,
and it promotes digestion, appetite and sound
repose. Give it a trial and be convinced.

THE NEUTRALITY DOC
3 TRINE.
United States Treaties tCith Russia, Eng
land, and the OttOnta Empire.

United States Treaties acith Russia, Eng
land, and the Ottoman Empire.
A Washington dispatch says that in
the treaty between the United States
and Russia in 1854 the two parties rec
ognized as permanent and immutable the
principles that "free ships make free
goods" that is to say, that the effects Or
goods belonging to the subjects or citi-
Zens of a power or state at wal are free
from capture and confseation when found
on board of neutral vessels, with the ex-
ceptisn of articles contraband of war,
and that the property of ~neutrals on
board an eremy's vessel is not subject to
confscation' unless the same be contra
band of war. They engage to apply
these principles to the commerce and
navigation of all such powers and states
as shall consent to adopt them on their
part as permanent and immutable. The
last treaty between the United States
and the Ottoman empire, negotiated in
1862, contains no such declared princi-
pies. The Washingtontreaty, negotiated
by the United States and Great Britain
in 1871, declares:
First-A neutral governments bound
first to use due diligence to prevent the
fitting out, arming or equipping within
its jurisdiction of any vessel which it
mas reasonable ground to believe is in
tended to cruise or to carry on war as
above, such vessel having been especially
adapted in whole or in part within such
jurisdiction to warlike use.
Secondly-Not to permit or suffer
either belligerent to make use of its ports
or waters as the base of naval operations
against the ether, OF for the purpose of
the renewal or augmentation of military
supplies or arms or the recruiting OF men.
1hirdly--To use due diligence lin its
own ports and waters, and as to all per
sons within its jurisdiction, to prevent
any violation of foregoing obligations
and duties, and the high contracting
parties agree to observe these rules as
between themselves in future and to
bring them to the knowledge of other
maritime powers and to invite them to
accede to them.
1t is the opinion Of the state depart,
ment that, as both Russia and Turkey
are frierSHy powers, it is highly improb'
able that either will make any effort to
police the American coast, and prevent
the shipment of contraband of var,
Turkey can unquestionably close the
Black sea; and if Russia proposes to
prevent the shipment of munitions o.
war to Turkish ports, a sentry feet car
effect this easier On the Straits of Gibral
tar than in the north Atlantic. In any
case, however, shipments of c%ontraband
of war to a belligerent are at private
venture, which a naval officer an over
haul on the high seas only upon informa'
tion previously obtained. Such a search
it is said at the state department, is al
the risk of the officer making it, and he
and his government become responsible
upon a failure to make good the charg'
of carrying contraband of wal. 1t ii
tolerably plain that the state department
anticipates no serious complications OF
account of such seizures.

HsW RUSSIANS LEARN ENGLISH.

The Russian method of acquiring
foreign languages is more methodical
than that of any other nation. In the
first place a foreign nurse, usually Eng
lish, is secured for the baby. The Rus
slams are very careful in choosing this
parsonage, because, as she is not on any
account to breathe into the infants ears
an accent of plebeian Russ, her speech
must be free from these colloguialisms
in which ladies like Sairey Camp are apt
to indulge. When the child is about
nine years old foreign playmates are
sought for it. During the summer
months the children of the English and
French residents in Russia are at a
premium. It is a regular practice fot
them to spend their holidays on the
estates of Russian nobility. Besides the
pleasure which the trip into the interior
affords them, they mostly return home
laden with presents, and if a boy is sharp
enough to be able to add a little gram.

"conversationalist," he may pick VI

child until it an converse in a foreign
language as freely and faultlessly as

E&BkrsH army IN Asr4.

According "a Geographic dispatches
from Constantinople, the strategic move
ment of the Turkish army in Asia is
said to have been begun, and it may be
concluded In the course OF the week, al
though the army there has 20 contend
with great local difficulties. The gene
raj staff of the army will now pitch their
headquarters'' in the fort of kars, while
the general commissariat, as before, will
stay at Erzerum. The Turkish army in
Asia, as we'll as in Europe, prefers to
wait the approach of the enemy, instead
of going to meet him, their fortified
places there, as we'll as here, being better
calculated for the defensive than the
aggressive. Besides, the great lack of
beasts of draft and burden now felt by
that army, will not allow it to advance
into the enemy's country in large and
regular columns, but will induce it to
stay quietly behind the Notifications.
On the other hand, the irregular
cavalry, now having pitched their camp,
we'll e~ntrenched in the southern part of
the fort of kars, upon the outbreak of
hostilities will at once be ordered to
march into the enemy's country to carry
on a kind of irregular warfare. But
those irregular horsemen, composed of
some Kurd and Arabic tribes, are
ignorant of the European tactics OF war,
though we'll fitted for s%kirmishing.
Such irregular warfare is peculiarly
adapted to afford agreeable employment
to those savage tribes accustomed to no.
made life. Their chief work in the enc
my's country will be to exact contribu-
tions in the way of cattle, provisions and
money, and at the same time cut off sup
plies on their way to the enemy. How
ever, the irregular calvary is estimated
to be but 1000 strong, 1000 of whom
are Kurds, and the rest Arabs. For
