A Turkish View Of Russia's Intentions

Gen. Tevfik, the Turkish inspector of
arms in this country, in talking with a
tribune reporter about the war in the
East, said it was admitted thar the Mo-
hammedans prosecuted and wronoed
Christians years ago, but the hostile feel
ings thus caused was gradually diving
out, and friendly and patriotic spirit
was developing among the people Of all
creeds in Turkey. 1t was the policy of
the Cars Government to keep alive the
Old hatred, and his agents were active
in tanning the fires of discord and in
promising to the Bulgarians and Greeks
the lands of the Mohammedans. "Iu1
tell you a story that applies to the Greeks
and Bulgarians," said Gen. Teyfik.

they had found, and then asked a mon

and then proceeded to weigh them.
This piece is too large, observed the
monkey, biting off and eating hall of the
larger piece. why, it now weighs less
than the other and he bit piece from
the other portion. The cats, seeing that
they had made mistake in their selec- |
ton of an arbitrator, told him that they
were satisfied of his good intentions, but |
they thought they could now divide the \
cheese themselves. You NAV be sails !

satisfied for my pains, and he ate up the
remainder of the cheese. The Gar is

The Midnight Ride Of the Confederate
Troops Around Cincinnati.

$50 long rs live,'' says Gen. Basil
Duke in the Philadelphia Times,
81 shall never forget that night
march around Cincinnati. We had now
been almost constantly in motion for
eleven days and nights, and gone nearly
four hundred miles. 1t had been Pc
riod of almost total deprivation of rest
and sleep, for when not marching we
had been fighting, or hard at work. The
column was encountered with the men
wounded in Indiana; and those still in
the saddle, reduced in number to less
then two thousand, were worn with The
enormous fatigue consequent upon such
exertions, OF which no one, who has not
had similar experience, can form the
slightest conception. The I'd brigade
had comparatively little trouble, for it
was in front and Gen. Morgan rode at
its head with the guides But the LIST
brigade was embarrassed beyond meas
ure. If the regiment in the rear
of the advance brigade had been
kept closed up and held compactly to-
gether, the entire column would have
been directed by the guides. But al
though composed of the very best fight !
ing material this regiment had ALWAYS
been under lax discipline, and the effect |
was now observable. Its rear compa-
MES would straggle, halt, and delay all |
behind them. When forced to proceed
they would move at a gallop. 4 great
gap would thus be opened between the
TWO brigades, and we, who were in the
rear, were obliged to grope our way
without assistance At the frequent
functions of roads, which occur in the
of so large a city, we were COM
PEELED to consult all sorts of indications to
ascertain the right path. The night was
intensely dark, and it was necessary TO
light torches at all such points. The
horses tracks on paved and dusty
streets so constantlytraveled afforded no
lew to the route our comrades had
AIKEN, but We could trace it by noticing
he manner in which the dust settled
'r foated. On calm night the dust
'ccasloned by the passage of a large
'ody of cavalry will remain in the air
or minutes and move slowly in the d.
ection followed by those who have dis
urbed 1t. We were also aided by re-
the SLAYER which had dropped
rom the mouths of the horses. At
very halt men would fall asleep and
ven drop from their saddles, and the !.
Ulcers were compelled to exercise con-
lant vigilance to keep them in ranks.
Daylight returned just as we reached |!
ne Little Miami Railroad, the last point
which we anticipated immediate dan
err, and after the trials of the night its
ppearance was gratefully hailed. Our :,
rogress was continued, however, save
hours halt in sight of Camp Denni- z

st. traneiscus Hospital, a Catholi
institution in this city, says the Pitt,
ourgh Chronicle, has recently been tn
scene OF very romantic occurrence
some hive or six months ago a youn
physician, son of a prominent citizen O
Pittsburgh, obtained the appointment
OF Assistant Physician to the hospital
As he Is Protestant some surprise wa
manifested, by those conversant witt
the facts, that he should be thus honor
ed by Catholic institution. He re
eeived no pay for his services, furthe
than his board and an unlimited com
mand of the splendid wines and LIQUOR,
OF the establishment, which are a.
abundant as they are good. Ever,
thing apparently ran along smoothly
and pleasantly to all, until short time
ago, when an event transpired which
has caused the young physician to seye,
his connection with the institution, the
reason therefor being this: Residing in
the hospital were several nuns and Sis
tiers of Mercy, who had taken VOWS of
eternal celibacy. One of these, how
ever, happened to be young, beautiful,
intelligent and attractive, and the phy-
stefan soon became deeply enamored of
her. And, Notwithstanding her VOWS,
the young nun soon learned to bow in
secret II another shrine than that of the
Virgin Mary; in fact, her love for the
fascinating young physician became as
strong rs his for her. In the daily as
ISOLATION of hospital life they had fire.
quent opportunities for speaking in that
language which requires not words for
utterance, and eventually the young
Romeo prevailed upon the not unwilling
Juliet to renOunce her vows and
flee from the citadel that re-
her ardent young life. So one
bright morning, not more than a week
ago, the fair recluse was not to be found;
in the stiffness of night she had flown,
without even so much as bidding her
adieu. The Mother Supe-
nor Of the establishment was naturally
exceedingly angry, and proceeded to
make an investigation Of the affair.
As the result of her inquiries she accus-
ID the young physician of having assist
ID in the nuns escape. To her sur
'rise he not only did not deny it, but |
openly acknowledged that he had OPEN |
ID the doors for the nun. And, further,
le insisted that he had perfect right |
o do so, as he was engaged to be mar
led to her, and it was foregone con-
fusion that he could not fulfill his con-
ract if she retained the veil and resi-
ence within the circumscribed limits of

Hayes Pardon of Major Reno--A man
without Regard for Woman's
Honor.
From the RalsiqA Observer.

L OHt tfSe ftutetyfI OOSeFTef-
Mr.. Hayes does not chew and he does
not drink, and he does not smoke and he
does not swear. but for pound of these
negative virtues We would not give an
ounce of that chiyalric feeling that regards
the honor of woman as above all price
and to be sullied only at the Peril of the
life of the coward whose lying lips utter
the SANDER. But Mr.. Hayes does not ap-
prove of this school of morality. He
thinks a commanding officer who first at
| tempts to seduce the wife of his absent
brother officer, and then privately and
officially seeks to destroy her reputation, il
sufficiently punished by suspension OF
rank AMI pay for two years.
And what after the two years? Will
he then be sufficiently purged of his of
fence to return as an officer and a gentle.
man to the society of his brother officers
and their families? And yet after the
expiration of the two years how can they
refuse to receive him? Verify, Mr.. Hayes
notions of things are curious.

Eayes's New York visit a Failure.

From the Pittsburgh Gdzette
Considerable curiosity was felt touching
the presidents visit to New York. Rumors
Of an upgracious reception were current,
but how far it would extend was uncertain.
Efforts were made to induce TiIden, Gov.
Robinson, and other Democratic celebrities
and dignitarles to attend and give eclat
to the reception Of the president at the
Cham Der of Commerce dinner None came.
Ex-Gov Hoffman, who can hardly be
called decent celebrity, in view of his
relations to the Tweed regime, spoke for
the state of New York. OF course the
dinner was we'll attended, as to numbers

always are-but as an attempt at recon
ciliation or social fusion,it was failure, Tt
was really indiscreet for the president to
90, unless clearly assured in advance that
bis reception would be cordial and brilliant.
1t gave his opponents an opportunity to
make point; and that it was successfully
done Is undoubted. The speeches, even
showed it. There was a solemn gloom. oyer

HELMBoLD's BUcHU. - Helmbold's
Buchu has long been known as one of the
most valuable medicines attainable in GER
tain classes of diseases, such as dyspepsia,
chronic rheumatism, dropsy, eutaneous
affections, and especially affections of the
urinary organs. As diuretic. it is supe-
rior to almost any other medicine in use,
and the great care with which it is pre-
pared, the absolute purity OF the prepare
ton, and the diligence used 10 the selection
of the crude material, have made i! known
far and wide as reliable and effective
preparation, and one that can always be
used with safety and benefit. The great
success of HelmboId's Buchu has led to
the production of many spurious prepare
tons, which are made cheaply and placed
upon the market to be sold on the reputa-
ton acquired by Helmbold's original pre-
paration. Parties who desire really good
medicine should be careful and use Helm
bold's only.

Our Fraudulent Administration Graspinn

WASHINGTON, May ls.-The fraudulent

to be assistant secretary, on the ground. |
presume, that the man who is unfaithful
over a few things ought to be made lord
oyer many.
The fraudulent president himself i'm
proves every opportunity to exhibit his
person to the people, and every movement
he makes is a mute appeal for an act of
popular amnesty. His Journey to New
\ ork and the postponement of the Cham
Der OF Commerce dinner to suit his con-
venience meant only an intense longing for
some sign of recognition of bis title to the
stolen presidency by the general public.
He has already announced his intention of
making progress through the southern
states at an early day. all of which reminds
us more or less ct the blind aud frantic
efforts of Andy johnson to reach the peo-
pie over the heads Of their representatives.
Grant wandered about from place to place
in search OF idle pleasures. Hayes has
entered upon series of peregrinatiens,
bearing the indelible brand of fraud op the
creeping skin of his forehead, and seeking
valnly some condouation of the enormous
crime of which that brand is the ineffacea-

Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
DAM in the right side, under the edge
/ of the ribs, increases on pressure !;
sometimes the pain is in the leftside; the
patient is rarely able to lie on the left
side; sometimes the pain is felt under
the shoulderblade, and it frequently ex-
tends to the top of the shoulder, and is
sometimes mistaken for a rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach is affected with
loss of appetitean sickness; the bowels
in general are Costive, sometimes alterna-
tive with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with dull, heavy
sensation in the back part. There is
generally considerable loss ofmemory,
accompanied with a painful sensation of
having left undone something which
ought to have been done. A slight, dry
cough is sometimes an attendant. The
patient complains of WEAKNESS and de-
bility; he is easily startled, his feet are
cold or burning, and he complains of a
prickly sensation of the skin; his spirits
are low; and although he is satisfied that
exercise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrustS
every remedy. Several of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few ofthem existed,
