long he can scarcely be expected to feel
any partially in Russia's behalf.
All Christendom has exulted in the
prospect of the early downfall of che Otto.
man power in Europe. The general ex-
pectation has been that Russia with her
larger resources and greatly superior num-
bers would, If not interfered with, speedily
conquer peace and dictate terms. But
the progress of the war thus far has not
fulfilled these expectations. So far from
it, the fact is that at present the tide of
success is apparently with the Turks
especially in Asia. The Divine interposi-
ton in human affairs just now seems to be
in favor of the Moslem Turk and against
the Muscovite Christian. Let US keep
along on the Lords side.

THE OLD MAN srILE IMPLACA-
BILE.
Ben wade's genial of recantation.

Special Dispatch to The FUening Journal.
The National Republican recently an
nounced by reliable authority that Ben
Wade has become reconciled to the Presi-
dents policy. This has called forth let
ter from the ex-senator to the Republican,
in which he says: while am now as
ever, as Republican, anxious for the sue
cess of the party, believing that it has done
more to sustain the rights of man and pro-
mote the principles Of just government
than any political organization of which we
have any account, | cannot permit my SEN
timents to be misrepresented now. |
should like to know who or what is your
reliable authority for the above statement.
Certainly have authorized no one to make
such a statement, or any other. Since my
letter to Mr.. Painter, which was surrepti-
tiously published, | have written to no
one upon the Presidents policy, and have
spoken to very few persons upon the sub
ject and then always in defense of the SEN
timents ofthat letter, which few hereabouts
oppose regret to say that all that has
since TRANSFERRED in the south and in the
north has but confirmed me in the cor
RICHNESS of the sentiments expressed in
that letter / will add that | greatly fear
that this policy, under color of What is
called local self government, is but an ig-
nominious surrender of the principles Of
nationality for which our armies fought,
and for which thousands upon thousands
of brave men died, and without which the
war was a failure, and our boosted gov
eminent a myth.

POLITICIANS IN OFFICE.
A Decision that Excites Surprise and
Discussion.
S,lrini Dlanrtrh 10 az HorLd.

Special Dispatch to ne World
The Presidents decision that members
Of the National Republican Committee
who are ofice-holders need not resign
their position on the committee has caused
great deal of discussion here for the past
day or two. Nobody pretends that it is in
harmony with his recent rulings on the re-
lations of oficebolders to politics. 1t is
true that the members of this committee
will probably have nothing to do until
the time arrives for fixing the date
and the place of the next National Repub-
lican Convention. But that is a most im-
portant political act, and always has much
influence upon the nominations that are
made, as is well known. Such a decision
is plainly departure from the Presidents
supposed civil reform policy, and causes
much doubt to be thrown upon the SINGER
ity of his intentions 1t is also to be no
ticed that the Presidents declarations con-
corning the various State Republican asso-
Citations here, which are made up Of clerks
and office holders, does not compel their
disbandmeut.and it is not likely to have such
a result. These associations have a social
as we'll as a political side. Each associa-
ton holds an annual reunion, and some of
them give entertainments during the win
ter season. It is evident, therefore, that
there is sufficient motive for the persons
who compose them to keep them Up, and
there is little reason to doubt that when
the time for future campaigns arrives,
these organizations, which have been so
useful heretofore in carrying on the Re-
publican campaign work, will be found il
full activity.

Made at the oldest Anvil mandatory in this
country. All English AnYils, after a time become
following on the face by continued hammering in
use, account of the brous nature of The wrought
iron-CausiDg it to settle under the steel
But the body OF the Eagle Anvil being of crys-
tallized iron such settling cannot occur; and the
steel face therefore remains perfectly true Also,
it has the great advantage, that being Of more
SOLID material, and, consequently with less re-
bound, the piece forged receives the FULL effect
OF the hammer, instead Of part of it being wasted
by the rebound, as with wrought iron Anvil.
More work therefore be done on this Anvil
with hammer one-ffth lighter than required for
wrought iron Anvil which is more elastic.

EMNIrTsBURG, Nd, October 19.-Iester-
day vein Of bituminous coal was dis
covered near Emmittsburg. which, judging
from present indications, may lead to the
developing of.rich coal-beds. 1t is OF avery
pure and rich quality. The vein, two feet
under ground, measures fifteen inches in
breadth and five in depth. As the workmen
dig the vein increases. This morning it
was tested in forge, and shows very fine
ash after burning. It's discovery has created
quite IN excitement.
The town of Portland, y. r., was ravaged
by fire on Saturday morning. Over two
thousand people are rendered homeless.
The quarter OF the town destroyed was
composed OF wooden buildings, and two
hundred and thirty were swept away. The
loss is estimated ut two hundred thousand
dollars, and the insurance at about eighty
thousand. Two dead bodies have been re-
covered from the ruins, and while men were
engaged in searching for others the founda-
ton OF safe give way and buried half a
dozen boys and q man. The latter was
taken out dead, and boy was fatally and
the others seriously injured.
