THE FRENCH sELEcrloNs.

Paris, Oct 29.-The results of the second
ballots, yesterday, for members Of the
chamber of deputies. so far as known, show
nine government candidates and two re-
presentatives elected. In three arrondisse.
men,s, the republican candidates claiming
they were elected on the 14th inst, did not
stand yesterday, intending to submit their
claim to the chamber oF deputies. The
republicans, however, did not attach much
importance to these supplemental elections,
because excluding the three uncontested
embellishments mentioned, the second
ballots were rendered necessary, simply
by the division of the conservative, the
vote between the royalist and bonspartist
candidates, one of whom has now with.
drawn, rendering the result certain.
Comtedesperilles, bonapartist, was defeat
ed by Gudin, moderate republican, whose
candidature Gambetta went to Chateau
Chinon to support.
Later returns show that the Is second
ballots Of Yesterday are resulting in the
election of eleven conservatives. and four
republicans: The chamber stands: 800
republicans; 2lO conservatives.

GERM.iNr and RUSSIA.

The New York World gives prominent
place to a letter just received in this
country from a German statesman of the
highest position il reference to the feel
ing in Germany concerning the eastern
question. After referring to the un-
reasonable excitement caused in France
by the recent speech of Won Moltke, the
writer saws: As a matter of fact, in
this present question, it is Russia which
most preoccupies US. We understand
perfectly vel that Russia is our next
and most formidable enemy, and we also
understand perfectly well how to disarm
and paralyze her. The present emperor
of Russia Is a sentimental simpleton,
without selcpoise and without moral
courage. lie has been driven into this
war with Turkey by the pressure of Rus
sian feeling. We in Gerrany have per
mitled him to engage in it, but we are
not such children as to permit him TO
emerge from it either with honor or with
accretions of strength. If he is terrified
bv the attitude of England and Austria
into making peace, he viii probably end
very suddenly-pethaps by suicide, per-
haps in the usual way in which Russian
public opinion vindicates itself against
incompetent emperors. If he persists in
making war, he will be humiliated and
Russia with him, by certain defeat, as
nothing can be more clear than that it is
in our interest to allow Austria, at the
critical moment, to tall upon his armies
and obliterate all recollections of the
Austro Russian alliance of 1880.
Peace or defeat equally will mean the
accession to the Russian throne, Under a
cloud Of popular discomfort and under a
crushing weight of financial burdens, of
a prince who is known to be our special
enemy, the ollrowtch. This Is cqui
valeut to q complete nullifcation of Rus
sia, for a generation to come, in the affairs
OF Europe; and what can ever hold out
any hope to France of the recovery of
Lorraine and Alsace except an alliance
with Russia ?"

A boy borrowed a tool from a carpen-
ter, promising to return it at night. Re-
fore evening he was sent away on an
errand, and did not return until late
Before going he was told that his brother
should see that the article was returned.
After he had come home be inquired and
found that the tool had not been sent to
its owner He was much distre: -ed to
think his promise had not been kept,
but was persuaded to go to sleep aud
rise early and carry it home the next
morning. BY daylight he was up, and
nowhere wa the tool to be found. After
long fruitless search he set off for his
neighbor's in great distress to acknOwl-
edge his fault. But how great was his
surprise to find the tool on his neigh
boris doorstone. And then it appeared,
from the prints of his little bare feet in
the mud, that the lad had got up in his
sleep aud carried the tool home. and
gone to bed again without knowing it.
OF course boy who was prompt in his
sleep was prompt when awake. Re
spected while he lived, he had the con-
fidence OF his neighbors, and was placed
in many offices of trust and profit. If

I UIDEnUS PROTECTION.

A pleasant story is told by Sir John
Lubbock, quoting IRON Weissmann,
illustrative of the means of protection
which some insects possess. The cater
pillar of the sphinx moth is quite as good
food for birds as any other insect; but it
is perfectly protected by its ugliness. It's
face is its fortune, having two great spots
on it which look like eyes when the
caterpillar wriggles. In general the insect
is suggestive of a small snake, especially
when it is frightened so that it draws
back its head and shows its false eyes to
advantage. NJ. Weissmann put one of
these caterpillars into a seed tray where
he usually fed sparrows and other small
birds The first bird that alighted Oh
the edge of the tray, perceiving theinsect,
became half paralyzsd with fear. Eight
or ten birds Joined the first one, but all
stood on the edge of the tray, afraid to
20 in. One bird few into the tray at first,
but on seeing the caterpillar hastily
scrambled out and Joined the company
- ths edge thsb Fere bobhiog thsit
heads up and down, and looking into
the tray as if half terrified. After the
caterpillar was removed the birds went
into the tray for seeds as usual.

Russia has made too careful pTepara-
tions for the present struggle to abandon
it until she has won certain results.
Among these will be the institution OF
an automatic government in Bulgaria
the creation OF Roumania into an iude-
pendent kingdom possibly the annexa-
tion of Bosnia and Herzegovina 10 Austria
and certainly large accessions to Russia
on the Black sea and in ASIA Minor
There are some Turcophiles, Christians
even, oy name, who uphold the Turkish
domination as a blessing to the people
who live under it. Their opinions, be
the motives Of them what they may,
count for nothing against the sentiments
of the Christian population OF the OF
toman empire. If you ask them they
will ask you IN return if you would ike
to live under government that tolerates
the massacre of thousands of unofiending
people, that refuse 10 punish the p-r-
petrators of them, and renders life and
property so insecure that they are hardly
worth possessing. By what right, they
ask, do the Turks rule over the subject
Christian races a? BY the tight of con-
quest alone The Christians were the
original owners of the vsst territory
embraced within the Turkish empire
The Turks are a race of nomads from the
deserts of Turkestan. They came in
quest OF booty and subsistence They
broke down the Christian empire founded
by Constantine the Great, and on its
ruins planted a barbaric Mussulman
dynasty. They are intruders in Europe,
and enemies TO its civilization. As such
they will tell you they ought to be ex-
PEELED, that the country may be RENTED
to the Christian race from whom it was
wrested. For this reason their sympathies
are ma urally with Russia.
Khalil Sheriff Pasha, the most dissolute
member of the most dissolute aristocracy
in the world, has been sent ambassador
to Paris. He has-run the whole gamut
of sensualism, and personally is a fitting
representative of the worst vices of the
Ottoman social and political system. He
is bad tempered, arrogant, superficial,
and lover of gambling and its con-
comitant depravities. He is just the
man to spoil the interest of the Turks,
and the more so as he is mo1b enemy
of Russia, with a strong contempt for
everything that is not Turkish.-Con-

An NERO ETC CRIPPLE.

The enterprise OF q recent emplOye OF
tie New York, New Haven and Hart
ford railroad cannot be too much praised.
While taking trunk out of baggage
car from Boston in the Springfield depot
some time ago, he was thrown down and
hurt. He suffered terribly and crawled
around On crutches until the Boston and
Albany and the New Haven roads united
and gave him $4,000, when he was in
simultaneously and completely cured.
Shortly afterward man on the Boston
and Albany road was killed, and the
company gave the widow $4,000 The
former cripple who had scored $4,000 al
ready, soon married her and thus counted
$4,000. He recovered his health 50 COM
pletely that lie was able to work again
on the railroad, but finally, not being
hurt again within reasonable time, he
retired to farm, which he had bought
with part of the proceeds of his former
calamities, and where he is living in
peace and quietness and under the con-
solations OF the reflection that virtue is
its own reward.
