RUssIA's PRACrloAL Policy. - A
GLANCE at the actual position OF Turkey
will help TO an understanding OF The
fact that the danger is not by any
means at an end. Russia has sur
rounded Turkey with a cham OF
antagonists. She has a treaty with
Persia compelling the latter power TO
attack Asiatic Turkey ct the proper
moment for Persia wants territory
which ouly through Russian co opora-
tion can secure her. The Russlars
threaten Asia Minor from the Caueas-
us. Montenegro at Russia's beck will
continue the war, probably aided by
a Russian contingent under Tchernay-
off. The wild, fearless tribes of Albania
are arming. \ rising is anticipated
in Epirus and Thessaly. The Greeks
are making extraordinary preprara-
tions. The Russian authorities esti.
mate that they will he ready TO put
100000 soldiers in the field before
campaigning weather comes round.
Al this will allow one TO understand
the alliance by which Prussia can keep
Austria in check while Russia destroys
TurRey.

The door or displacing the ropes was the mys-

trick At Lewiston the brothers undertook
this performance. The bux was tied BY pack
ers whe we're used to the ropes, snd The re
suit was that the "spirits were unable 10
make the usual interchange: ihe brother who
nrs' got into The box wss held tight and fast.
and the whole bumbug was exposed. Some
