Lord Auckland, then British Ambassa-
dor in Spain, wrote, in 1888, of bull-fghts:
" 1t would give me less pain to be Il crimi-
nal broken on the wheel, because the suf-
fering is sooner over. At II bull-fght last
week at Madrid, there were eighteen bulls
and sixten horses killed. The poor ami
mails are driven quite mad with cruelty,
and wounded and mangled in every part
of their bodies before they are put to death
You see II poor bull struck perhaps with II
dozen barbed darts pursuing poor horse
already gored, and with his bowels trail
ing on the ground. To-day all the gentle
men, and great many of the men SER
wants, of my family went for the first limT.
From the report which they give | don't
think that they will go again" Lord Auck-
land, who himself never went, adds: "Thc
king always speaks Of the amusement
with Indignation; but, although in other
respects he has absolute power, he cannot
prevent the bull fights" 1t is significant
of the degree to which Spain lags behind
the van of civilization that precisely the
same sort Of thing goes on'there to-day;
indeed, during the recent visit of the King
to Cadiz The performances were exception
ally revolving. One poor bull of limid
and retiring disposition would not attack
the horse; forthwith ten thousand voices
shouted " Fuego fire and then barbed
arrows, which are furnished with eXplo-
sives, were thrown into the poor animals
neck, causing him frightGul agony. The
disgust of the civilized world is at length
felt even in Spain, and IN anti-bull fight
association has lately been formed.

q will pay $4,000 in cash for the de-
livery to me of the kidnapped child, Char
lie Ross, or for information that will lead
to his recovery. most solemnly and Sal
credly pledge my word of honor and my
reputation as an upright business man not
to attempt for myself to discover the iden-
tity of the persons negotiating with me in
this matter, nor to convey to any other
person any hints or clews by which any
accusation, or even suspicion, shall be di-
rected against them. The parents of the
child unite with me in this pledge, and
agree, if their darling child is by this
means restored to them, to abandon all at
tempts to punish any person connected
with his abduction or concealment; they
agree never TO appears against such parties,
and with myself will use every endeavor
TO shield them from exposure In this
way p. T. Barnum sets out to find the lost
child. THE Springfield Republican states
that the idea first occurred to Mr.. Barnum
when he was in Philadelphia two years
ago, but he decided not to countenancc
any condoning of the oneuse. The idea
returned to him recently, and he opened
negotiations with Mr.. Ross. He promised
to offer the reward on the condition that
if the boy were recovered some arrange
mcnt should be made for exhibiting him.
Tho offer was accepted on Friday, the fam.
lily retaining the privilege of reimbursing
Mr.. Barnum; but in no case is any other
Snowman to be allowed to exhibit the boy.
Mr.. Ross has ascertained that Mosher
wrote II novel sixteen years ago, in which
the plot turned upon the abduction of Il
child.

Gen. Tevfk, the Turkish arms agent in
this country, says that the English rifles
are better than those made in this country,
the stocks especially being stronger and
more work done by hand This very fact,
however, units them for army use, since
the parts of different muskets are not in
terchangeabe. On the other hand, the
parts of American machine-made rifles
can be assembled" without the slight
est difficulty; if two rifles break down in
parts, the sound parts will still fit
together and make one sound arm. The
English rifles cost 81 more in gold The
Turkish contracts placed in this country
amounted to 100000 muskets, and $780,
900 have already been shipped. Both
combatants, in fact tho whole world, now
come to us for copper for cartridges,
American copper being entirely free from
iron and stronger. Gen. Tevfik says that
Kars has been deliberately fortified by
Prussian engineers since the last war,

The divisions in the South in the near
future will be upon local, and not upon
national, issues. These local divisions
are, however, beneficial. and strictly II
good thing, In George today the white
people are split into two separate equal
parties as to whether there shall be u con-
vcntion called and new constitution

Uneasy Europe.

The state of affairs throughout Europ
is such that the war in the East is NOR
and more liable to be accompanied by
general disturbance of the peace 1t j
true that the agitation excited by Glad
stone is placing great impediments in tn,
way of Dsraei's willingness to plung
England into IN anti-Russian war. Blu
the very excitement that prevails from
the discussion is liable at any moment tC
lead the majority to take advantage o
some act of the Gar which may seem Il
threaten England's Asiatic supremacy ant
begin hostilities relying upon nationa
pride to sustain what calm common sense
would condemn.
The most important event fthe week has
been the change Of ministry in France
President MacMahon II week ago had (;
republican cabinet, with Jules Simon II!
its head. He has dismissed them mos
cavalierly and has suspended the sittings
of the Senate and Assembly for month
This suspension without chance for de.
bate and the formation Of ministry Of
Oreanist tendencies created great excite
ment. The republicans who form large
majority of the two houses vigorously
protested but without avail.
The month of suspension will very like
ly be followed by dissolving the two bodies
and ordering II new election. MacMahon
has turned out number of republican
projects and put in men after his own
heart, who will cndeavor to carry the
elections in four of the rcactionists.
The chances are, however, that new as
sembly would contain an increased repub-
lican majority.
The action of MaoMahon is generally at
tributed to the efforts of the clerical party
which is just now especially active and
successful both in Italy and France The
overthrow of the republic in France is,
however, now impossible withouta bloody
contest, and one can scarcely be avoided
even if MacMahon goes only to the extent
of doing away with the substance of the
republic while keeping its form.
Germany is displeased, evidently, at the
change in France, and lays it ut the door
of the ultramontanes or clericals. Bis
marck had trouble with them and crushed
them in his precinct" and it is notice
able that he has been called to Berlin this
week TO take part in consultation. II
Germany in obedience to his suggestion,
sees fit to speak IL word about either east
ern or papal matters, it is safe to say there
will be earnest attention paid to what is
said.
Meantime the Russians are making
some progress in Asia, where they have
captured one or two fortified places, and
there has been some severe skirmishng.
No great battle has yet been fought and
no decisive advantage gained. The Euro
pean arm OF the war moves slowly. The
Russians are slowly massing on the Dam
ube, and must be nearly ready to attempt
crossing in force to the south side, when
heavy fighting will begin. So far the de-
tails are not only uninteresting, but almost
unintelligible, for each correspondent
seems to have a worse way than his neigh
Dor of spelling unpronouncable Russian
and Turkish names, and of these names
the bulk of dispatches at present consist.
