IPittsburg COMMERCIAL
We heard a very pretty in
cident the other day, which
we can not help relating. A
young lady from the South, it
seems, was wooed and won
by youthful physician living
in California. When the en-
gagement was made the doc
tor was rich, having been
very successful in San Fran
cisco. It had not existed six
months, however, when, by
an unfortunate investment, he
lost his entire heap This
eventcame upon him, it should
be added, just as he was about
to claim his bride. What
does he do? Why, like an
honorable and chivalrous
young fellow as he is, he sits
down and writes the lady
every particular Of the unhap-
by turn which has taken place
in his fortunes, assuring her
that if the fact produced any
change in her feelings towards
him, she is released from every
promise she has made him,
And what does the dear, good
girl? Why, she takes a lump
Of pure gold which her lover
had sent her in his prosperity
as a keepsake, and having it
manufactured into a ring, for
wards it to him with the fol-
lowing Bible inscription en-
graved in distinst characters
on the outside. 'Entreat me
not 10 leave thee, or to return
from following after; for With
er though goest will [ go; and
whittier thou lodgest will l
lodge; thy people will be my
people, and thy God my God:
where thou diest will [ die,
and there will 1 be buried ;
the Lord do so to me, and
more also if aught but death
part me and thou The lover
idol:zed his sweetheart more
than ever when he received
this precious evidence of her
devotion to him both in storm
and sunshine. We may add
that fortune soon again smiled
upon the young physician,
and that he subsequently res
turned to the North to wed
the sweet girl lie loved, and
who loved him with such un-
dying affection. Reader, this
is all true.

LORD PALMERSTON'S DISLIKE AM
SUSPICION OF RUSSIA.
TTempel Bari

CTempel Bari
In the revolt of Mehemit Ali he
took still more active part. He
saw that if Mehemit declared him
self independent of the Sultan, and
separated Syria and Egypt from
the Ottoman Empire, war would
ensure between the Turks and the
Egyptians; "that in such conflict"
he wrote to Lord Granville. "the
Turkish troops would probably be
defeated; that then the Russians
would fly to the aid Of the Sultan,
and Russian garrison would oc-
cupy Constantinople and the OAR
danelles; and once in possession of
those points the Russians would
never quit them" Accordingly,
the Mediterranean fleet was dis
patched to Alexandria to support
the Sultan, and to show Mehemet
what he had to expect if he per-
sisted in his designs. With the
exception of France, all the great
powers which had agreed to uphold
the intes rity of the Ottaman EN-
pire were opposed to the ambitious
Pasha of Egypt. France, however
pursued a shifting course. She
dared not break with the great
powers. and yet she wished to sup
port Mehemit Ali so as to consti>
tute herself the protectress of
Egypt and Syria-in other words,
| to hold the key Of the high-road
| to our Indian Empire. Such a
move, so fatal to English interests,
/, was at once checkmated by our
For7eiigga secretsSyy:-5i1sa the he plainest
language if France assisted Me6e-
NIT in disturbing the integrity OF
the Ottoman Empire war would
easue between England and
France; that England would be
supported by the powers, and
France, finding herself isolated,
would be severely defeated. He
firmly upheld the necessity OF
maintaining the integrity of the
Ottoman Empire, and excluding
the Russiaus-whose sharp, I'M
scrupu!ous diplomacy never de-
ccived, him, and in whose sense Of
honor he was rightly no believer
from Constantinop!e.

EXPERT ENCE OF NEWSPAPER MEN

Rev. Dewitt Talmage said
recently in one of his SER
mons: Zone Of the greatest
trials of the newspaper pro-
fession is that it's members are
compelled to see more OF the
shams Of the world than any
other profession. Through
every newspaper Office, day
after day, go all the vanlties
that want to be pulled; all the
revenges that want to be
l.reaped; all the mistakes that
want to be corrected; all the
dull speakers who want to be
thought eloquent, all the
meanness that wants to get
it's wares noticed gratis in
the editorial columus; all the
men who want to be set right
who were never right all
the crack-brained philosophers
with stories as long as their.
hair, and as gloomy as their
fnger-nails in mourning be-
cause bereft Of soap-all the
bores who come to stays five
MINUTES, but talk five hours.
ThrOnoh the editorial and re-
portorial rooms all the follies
and shams of the world are
seen day after day, and the
temptation is to believe III
neither God, man nor woman
1t is no surprise to me that
} in this profession there are
, some skeptical men; I only
, wonder that journalists believe
: anything,

Israel that from force of habit tbt
mass Of the people had got into The
habit OF thinking it right. In the

many Of the godly people were dis
couraged, and afraid to make public

ly even they were somewhat democrat

The terms OF the trial are simple
enough. The people are to Judge
between Jehovah and Baal. Baal, the
sun.god. ought to be able, il he can do
anything at all. to send down fire
enough to burn bullock. To that bis
followers eagerly agree. They have
the first choice and the first chance
Their adhorents confidently await the

Elijah await it, Many an Israelite who
is at heart follower Of the true God.
stands nervously wondering. what il
Baal should answer by FIRE, and con.
sumo that bullock.
Concerning answers by fire. see Lev.
TX y Judges VI; q; Chron. xxr:26
Chron. VII: /.
THE BAAIIrEs COMPLETE FAILURE.
The bullock is laid on Bsars altar.
aud BAal's priests perform their incaB.
tations around it. The answer by FIRE
does not immediately come. They
call on their deaf and dumb fAlses god,
o Baal, hear US Hour after hour
they continue, aud Jet there is no an
swer. Elijah. rough in his gArb.
patient aud quiet in bis demeanor, can
afford TO wait. With cutting sarcasm
he bids them call louder, for Baal may
be away, OF asleep, or busy. They
howl. and make shocking spectacles OF
themselves as the blood streams from
the gashes they make in their bodies.
II Is all 10 vain. Elijah has done well
/ in letting them FIRST have chance to
