THE EASTERN QUESTION.

The U1fimatum OF tine POwers-The
Porte's Answer to be given Thursday.
CoNsTANTINoPLE, Jan. 15.-At to-days sit
ting of the conference, the Marquis of Sails
bury, in the name of bis European colleagues,
communicated to the representatives of the
Porte the last proposals Of the powers, whose
demands were reduced ard softened
After making his Communication, Lord Sal.
isbury announced that if the Porte did not
agree to the proposals now made he had in
strnctions to quit Constantinople.
Sir Henry Elliot said he had also been in
structed to withdraw and leave the British en-
bassy in care of a Charge d'Affars.
All the other plenipotentarles in succession
made similar declarations, some of them laying
stress on the fact that it was the Porte's inter-
est to accept the proposals.
Sufuel Pasha replied that he did not think it
possible for Turkey to yield upon questions
relative to the question of supervision ann ap-
pOintment of governors, those proposals which
affect the independence of the Porte having
already been rejected. The Porte, however,
would examine the communication and reply
definitely at the next sitting. The conference
will reassemble on Thursday if the Turkish
answer is then ready. Meanwhile the grand
council of $50, composed of all the great digni-
tarles OF the states, will meet to decide upon
the answer.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 The Senate Com

noon examined George T. Swan, clerk of the
U. S. Circuit and District Court for the
Southern district of Mississippi. He testified
he personally saw no intimidation of voters,
but had been often appealed to by colored men
about the time of the last election, who COM
planned they were not allowed to vote. Others
complained that they were unable to register
because they could not give an exact geographi-
cal location of their place of residence in the
election district in which they lived. One of
the frauds practiced upon the ignorant voters
at the late election was to give out Democratic
tickets with the likeness of Hayes and Wheeler
on them,

CENTAUR
LINIMENTS.

The lame can be healed and the wounded made
whole We now know just what the Centaur Lint
ments will do. They will not mend broken bones or
cure Cancer but they will extract soreness, allay
pain, cure Rheumatism and larger range of flesh,
bone and muscle ailments than any articles ever be-
fore discovered.
Scientific skill cannot go beyond the effects of thes9
remarkable preparations. Chronic Rheuma-
tism of many years standing, Neuralgia, Weak
Back, Fever, Sores, Weeping-s inews, Scatica.
Caked- Breasts. Distorted Joints and Sprained
Limbs of the worst kind are cured by the White
Centaur Liniment.
1t will destroy the pain and heal without a
all ordinary Burns and Sealds. 1t will extract
the poison of Bites and Stings, and the frost from
Frozen Limbs 1t is very eficacious for Ear-aehe,
Tooth-ache, Itch and Cutaneous EruptiOns.
Mr.. Josiah Westake, of Marysvile, o., writes:
''For years my Rheumatism has been so bad that
l have been unable to stir from the house. The
first three bottles OF CeDtaur Liniment enabled me
to walk without my crutches L am mending rapid
ly. think yonr Liniment simply marvel"
G. Fl. Bennett, Druggist, Rock Prairie, Mo-, says
"Centaur Lniment sells better and gives the best
satisfaction of anything in the market"
What the Centaur Lnment has done for others
it will do for you. 1t is handy it is reliable, and it
is cheap.

The Yellow Centaur Liniment

is worth its weight in gold to owners of horses and
mules.
This Linimsnt has cured more sprained,
sweenied, Ring boned and Called u oPses in three
years than have all the FarTiers in the country in
age. Its effects are simply wonderful.
We have thousands upon thousands of certificates
as strong as the following:
"My horse was lame for a year with fetlock
wrench. All remedies utterly failed to cure and
considered him worthless until commenced to use
Centaur Lnment, which rapidly cured him. 1
heartily recommend it.
'REv. GEO W FERRIS,

ment in my family, and find it to be OF great value

1t makes very little difference what the case is,
whether it be Wrench, Sprain, Poll-Eyi, Rim bone.
Scratches or Lameness of any kind, the effects are
the same. Liverymen, Stage proprietors, Farmers,
&c, should never be without the Yellow Centaur
Lniment. 1t is sold everywhere, and warranted in
its effects.
