By opening your Bible and turning to
the Second Book of Kings, fourth chap
ter, you will find an example illustra-
ting very forcibly the position 1 hold on
this subject, and clearly indicating our
duty to, creditors. A certain woman
whose husband was dead, in her hour
of need, when the creditor was come to
take her sons to be benGmen, cried to
the prophet Elisha for aid and counsel.
Now imagine this poor widow applying
to some parties of whom we know, what
would be the answer? Probably some
thing of this sort: :" Why, madam, you
are not under the least moral obligation
to pay that debt. My advice to you is
to take your sons and escape by star
light across the Jordan into the land of
Moab" But not SO did the prophet speak.
The law was hard law if ever there
was one, but the debt was just and must
be paid. So Elisha put the poor woman
into an honest way of raising the money
without saying one word about this
"Shylock," who was so cruelty bent on
a rigid enforcement of the law. Final

The meeting OF Prince Bismarck and
Count Aoersssy at Gastein has probably
produced no immediate result. The time
for mediation is not yet, and it 10 most
likely true that both ChanceElors have
agreed that TIL either Russians or Turks
.intimate a wish for mediation, none can be
offered. But all the rumours especially
those about the disputed toast proposed
by Franeis Joseph to his Imperial brother
the Car, on the Cars bi~rthday--seem TO
point to the fact that as Russia shows
her military weakness, she Austrians grow
more friendly TO the Turk. The Emperor
of Germany is. no doubt, on the Russian
side. and the Emperor Of Austria knows
that the sympathies CT his Slavonic sub
jects are Of more importance TO him than
even those OF his Hungarian subjects, and
so long as his fear OF Russian aggression
is on the wane, he will not offend both
Germany and his ewn most powerful
States. But for the present, diplomacy is
rowerless.
II is now but too evident that the no
ton of taking Plevna by assault is abau-
doned, and that if taken at oil, it will be
taken by siege. Twenty thousand men,
Russians and Roumanians togetber,-
