THE COMMERCIAL ASPECTS OF
THE EASTERN WAR.


Every feature OF the Eastern war, so
far as yet developed, indicates that the
+ truggle Is to be gigantic one. Both of
The belligerent Empires have been pre-
pairing for the conflict for at least two
years past. Russia, SO often thwarted
IN her great design of planting her power
upon the waters OF the Mediterranean,
mas now girded herself up for one more
tremendous trial Of strength with her
ancient foe and rival. In her military
operations on the frontiers Of European
Turkey, the Russians have never, in her
recent wars, been at all successful. 1t
is true that they once marched through
to Adrianople, and there dictated terms
OF peace to the Sultan. But that was
before the Turks had acquired skill in
devising lines Of defense. In 1858, the
Russians, after sacrificing thirty thou
sand Of her troops, failed to effect a
crossing Of the Danube. They are at
tempting the same thing again. But
they are now to meet line of defense
occupied by the Turks vastly more for
midable than any they ever before faced
on that historic river. Their chance of
military success In that quarter may
therefore be considered as quite unprom-
Using. Z
But, now comes another movement,
different from any heretofore made by
Russia in her attempts upon Turkey.
She is moving column of immense
strength from her Caucasian borders,
along the southern coast of the Black
Sea, through Asia Minor, towards Con-
stantinople. A glance at the map will
show that the two lines Of advance are
at a right angle with each other, the
Black Sea supporting the flanks OF both,
and Constantinople the point Of inter-
section. This new feature of Russian
invasion may become its most formid-
able one to the safety of the Sultan.
The march is certainly long one. But
the Cossacks of the Don are there in all
their force, mounted on their hardy
steeds, and themselves as hardy as
their horses. They can both protect
and supply the infantry column and its
siege train on their march through that
fertile and well cultivated region.
But, leaving the military probabilities,
let US turn to q consideration Of the
commercial aspects of this great Ori-
entail war. In this country, as in other
countries not within the circle Of the
conflict, the question of its influence on
our trade is one of such interest as to
almost override the political or military
issues that arise from this vast move.
ment Of the belligerent powers. Al.
ready fever Of speculation has been
excited in this country, based upon the
presumed demand that will arise for
our breadstuffs and provisions, to sup.
ply those nations in arms. That there

Millions blindness was the result of
Overwork and dyspepsia.
One of the most eminent American
divines having, for some time past, been

reading, has spent thousands OF dollars
in value, and lost years of time, in con-
sequence of getting up several hours
before day, and studying by artificial
light. His eyes never got we'll.
Nultitudes of men and women have
made their eyes weak for life by the to
free use of the eye-sight, reading small
print, and doing fine sew ng. In view
of these things it is well to observe the
following rules in the use of the eyes:
Avoid all sudden changes between
light and darkness.
Never begin to read, write or sew, for
| several minutes after coming from
darkness to a bright light.
Never read or sew directly III front of
the light, or window, or door.
1t is best to have the light fall from
above, Obliquely Over the left shoulder.
Never sleep SO that. on the first wax
ing, the eyes shall fall on the light OF
| the window.
Do not use the eye-sight by light so
scant that it requires al effort 10 dis

Too much light creates IA glare, ard
pains and confuseS the sight. The mo

your eyes, that moment cease using

In order to establish health on a sure basis,
the enfeebled system must acquire additional
vigor. And Vet, patent as this fact Is, and
widely known aS il Is, too many people neglect
this vital point in the self treatment of dis
ease, and physicians are very often equally
remiss. resorting to the use Of palliatiyes
which affect symptoms only, and fail To &C
complish the chief end in view, which is, or
should be, IMMIGRATION. The main reason
why Hostetter's Stomach Bitters are so sue
cessful in overcoming disease is that they i'm

Another ~Evangeline

The story of Evangeline is repeated
with wonderful fidelity in all its details
in the experience of young French
girl, a resident of Marseilies. She was
engaged tO'a sailor, to whom she was TO
be married on his return from a vOy age
TO New York. He did not return, and
after a year she got a birth as ste ward
ess' assistant on one of the Havre
steamers, to come here in search of him.
On the passage, a rich American lady
became Interested IL her story, and re-
solved to help her to find out her lover.
In New York she learned that he had
gone TO Canada. For months she trav-
eled about the Dominion, sometimes
close on his track, and again losing
every clue aS TO his whereabouts. She
returned TO New York, and one day,
while Standing at a Broadway crossing
waiting her turn TO get across, she saw
the object of her long search or the
other side. She shrieked his name, and
ran into the middle of the street, but a
policeman caught her and saved her
from the wheels of a string of vehicles.
Angel of God there was none" and she
never again saw the Gabriel she had 50
long sought and nearly found. She
learned then that he had sailed for San
Francisco. and she went overland to
California to meet him. Arrived on the
Pacific coast, she found that her lover
had fallen overheard just outside the
Heads and been drowned. Mean while,
the body of a young man dressed in
sailors clothes Was cast ashore on the
beach, carried to the COrOner's Offic e,
and, no. being Identified. was inferred
in the public cemetery. A water-sOdden
pOcket-boOk was taken from the dead
man, which contained only a few let
tiers written in French unaddressed.
The girl hearing of this, went TO the
CoroneI's Office and found that the let
tiers were hers. The waves had tardily
and partially recompensed her devoted
search, and she was able to find the
grave of her lOver.-NeU York World.
