The English Problem.

London, May 1O.-The British jeal-
GUS suspicion of Russia's ulterior de-
signs is becoming stronger even than
English adherence Of Turkish barbar-
ity and fanaticism, consequently the
war feeling grows, though still restrain
ed by the conviction that England in
entering the war would have no ally
but Turkey. The coolest heads here
have the least fear of Russia's purpose,
because satisfied that the Gar would
dread general war more than any
other European power. In the event
of intervention, Russia's Baltic fleet, Of
over 200 ships, are free to speedily
scatter over the seas, where they could
inflict considerable injury to British
commerce and make Americas oppor-
tunity to recover the shipping interest
destroyed during the Southern rebel
lion.

Chicago, May 10.-The following
correspondence passed between Mrs.
Chisholm and Governor Stone, of Miss
issippi:
To Coz. j. NJ. Stone, Matches, Miss:
I am Just from Judge Chisho1m's, in
Kemper county. Both he and his
daughter are suffering very much from
wounds and constant threats from the
mob. 1t is freely asserted that Judge
Chisholm will neither be permitted to
live at home nor to leave the county
alive, which threats he and myself fear
will lie carried out unless protected by
the state government. A constant
watch is kept upon the house, and a
stranger going there is promptly asked
his business and kept under surveil-
lance. Mrs. Chisholm was compelled
to obtain a permit from the leaders Of
the mob to bury her son, slain in the
Jail. From motives of humanity 1
have followed you to this place with
the following letter from Mrs. CHS
holm:
To Hon. j. NJ. Stone, Governor:
SIR-Believing you to be humane
and desirous of preventing needless
effusion of blood, l most humbly and
respectfully appeal to you for aid in
protecting the life of my husband and
children until such time as am able,

mercy, may spare to me, to leave the

Dangers of the Deep.

New York, May 10.-Dispatches
state that the steamer Dakota is
ashore at Point Llmas, 45 miles from
Liverpool. The passengers and crew
were all saved, but the vessel and cargo
are probably total loss. At Point
Limas the coast is steep, rocky and ex-
ceedingly dangerous. Point Limas is
where the Royal Charter, an Australian
emigrant clipper, was wrecked on Oc-
tober 9Th, when nearly four hundred
persons perished.
About year ago the steamer Abbots-
ford, splendid ocean steamer, was
wrecked there.
The Dakota was about $500 tons
burden and valued at $780, 600. She
was commanded by James p. Prince,
who has the reputation of being a
thoroughly skilled and experienced mar
iner.
The Dakota's passengers will sail,
Saturday, in the steamer Wisconsin.
1t is feared that the Dakota will
prove a total loss.
London, May 0.-Re-insurances are
being effected on the overdue steamer
City of Brussels for fifteen guinies per
cent. premium.
LiAerpool, May 1O.-It is believed
that the steamer City of Brussels has
broken her shaft. With the prevailing
wind, it would not be surprising if she
does not arrive in week or ten days
yet. The same winds would account
for her not being spoken, as they would
drive her out of the course of steamers.
London, May 10.-The Dakota parted
at noon to-day and is now sinking.
The crew narrowly escaped, last night,
with the aid of the coast guard.
London, May 1O.-A majority of the
Dakota's 300 passengers were Germans,
in the steerage. Four hours were Oc-
cupied in landing them.

THE news from the seat of war is
dubious. England will keep her neu-
trality in the strictest sense of the
word, that is, so long as it suits her
purposes. The end is not yet however.
The Bear is aggressively outrageous
towards the Turks, as may be seen
from our ample war cablegrams upon
the subject; and it is quite possible for
England, SO soon as she has made all
her necessary preparations, to step in
and assist Turkey. There is no doubt
but that this would bring about gen.
eral European war, but so long as we
are not involved in the arrangement,
we can well afford to allow them to go
ahead and break each others noses to
their hearts content.

UTAH.
Brigham and his Avenging Angels.

New York, May 1.-THE Herald IS
Salt Lake special says: At present
there is more real danger to the tenure
and necks of the Mormon chiefs in this
territory than ever impended over,them
before, and they strive by all means
available to stimulate their followers to
persecute the people of the United
States. During the last three weeks
the counsels of the priesthood through
out Utah have been belligerent, and Or
ders from the commanders of the old
Nauvoo Legion have summoned that
body to get ready for action. Brigham
Young has indicated to immense con-
gregation Of Mormons at the taberna-
Gle, in that paraphrase which necessity
long ago taught him to use, his will
ingness that they should be ready to
defend him and the church from i'm
pending danger, yet he disliked to have
this meaning conveyed to the outside
world. While the Mormons are arm
ing, he desires the authorities at Wash
ington and the people beyond Utah to
believe that they are organizing merely
for holiday, and the newspapers here
which are edited in the interest of the
Mormon church describe the opposite
views as sensational
Gov. Emery, who has had his atten-
tion called to the facts, still deliberates
whether or not to take action in regard
to them. One evidence before him is that
the Nauvoo Legion is military organ
ization, utterly dissimilar to any other
in the United States, composed exclu-
sively of Mormons who were banded
for treasonable resistance to the United
States troops under Gen. Johnston, and
it was subsequently disbanded, or rath-
er forbidden to assemble without his
order, by Gov. Shafer in 1870.

Berlin, May 1O.-The Car is said to
be alarmed at the formation of Polish
legion at Constantinyple, and has or
dered the Governor General at Warsaw
to exercise the greatest vigilance to pre-
vent Russian Poles from joining the
legion. All the mitigations of the
state of siege in Poland allowed since
the insurrectiOn of 1868, will be re-
voked.
Berlin papers announce that the lead
ing Polish politicians, at secret meet
ing at Lomburg, resolved on the estab-
lishment of recruiting bureaus all over
Poland, with the hope of raising an
army of $4,000. Six Thousand have
left already for Turkey.

the belief that if the Russians should
succeed in crossing the Ballrus, the
war in Europe would become general
one. Should this occur it would not
only end in the destruction of Turkey
but necessitate an entire reconstruction

Philadelphia, May 10.-L.arge crowds

every body complains of some disease
during their life. When sick, the OBJ
ject is to get well; now to say plainly
that no person in this world that is suf-
fering with dyspepsia, liver complaint
and its effects, such as indigestion, cos
tiveness, sick headache, sour stomach,
heartburn, palpitation of the heart, de
pressed spirits, billiousness, etc., can
take Green's August Flower with

1T IS about time that something
should be done by governments who
possess large merchant marine, to see
to it that the lives of the passengers
shall not be endangered. The captain
and officers of these gilded palace steam
ers, more properly speaking, iron coffins,
should be held answerable to the law
for the safety of their living freight,
and if by any reason of dereliction of
duty on his part, anyone, or a part, or
the whole should be lost, the govern
ment under whose flag she sails, should
do more than suspend him or take away
his certificate. They should hang the
offending ones or imprison them for
life. Nine cases in ten it is shear care
lessness that brings about these fright
full calamities of the sea we are prone
to read too frequently about. The other
day it was the "City of Brussels, :" to-
day the Dakota" /" though fortunately,
in the case of the latter, no lives were
lost. The Cunarders have never lost a
steamer Of theirs as yet NOR a single pas
senger in all their many years of SER
vice at sea; but if you speak of this as
something worthy of great praise and
commcndation, the other lines immedi-
ately assume virtue they do not pos
sess and attribute it to luck, thereby in
a derogatory manner rejecting upon
the character of officers whose attri-
butes make them sea gods in. the eyes
of thorough seaman, and to whose
never ceasing watchfulness and care is
due the credit of never having had the
misfortune to lose ship or q passenger.
Luck indeed If there is no law for
these reckless seamen, let the passengers
find one and stout rope and make one
there and then, as lesson to others
who may come after him.

six hundred strikers, accompanied by
