The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1878-04-06


Russia and Turkey a treaty of peace
has been signed, whereby certain con-
cessions have been made to the for
mer Power, and which, lis generally
admitted, put her in position to be
come formidable rival to Great Brit
ain in the East, if they do not virtual
ly constitute her master Of the affairs
of Eastern Europe. With view to
the final settlement of other matters
springing out of this unfortunate
struggle q Conference is proposed
primarily Of those Powers which sign
ed the treaty Of Paris in 1856. Such
a Conference might be made con-
temptible farce before the world, in
the absence Of any definite aim, Or
concerted action; or it may be render
ed tributary to the peace and progress
Of Europe by assuming q practical
character, and by aspiring to the re-
moval of all cause of dispute between
the different nations. The British
Government has sought to invest the
Conference with an undisputed au-
thority for good, and to render its
deliberations and decisions such as
the whole of Europe might approve.
In order to do this it has required
that every article Of the treaty ratifl-
ed between Turkey and Russia should
be submitted to the Conference. This
proposition has met with the approval
Of Austria and other European Pow
ers, as a demand founded in reason
and right. But at this point Russia
Joins issue with both Britain and
Austria, and in refusing to accede to
the demand endangers the existence
of the Conference and the peace of
Europe.
The position assumed by the Brit
ish Government in this particular in
stance in obviously just. There are
British interests in the East which are
in danger of being sacrificed. 1t would
not be safe to Britain to permit Rus
slate parcel out Turkey in her own
fashion, and to acquire supreme and
undisputed authority throughout the
whole of the East. Some articles of
the treaty point ominously in that di
rection; whilst there are grave sus-
picions of q supplementary and secret
treaty which still further increase the
power Of Russia and the prostration
of Turkey. There is, therefore, q le-
gitimate ground for apprehension, and
Great Britain is warranted in requir-
that the whole thing should come out
openly, and be made the subject of
discussion.
The chances of the Conference
meeting at all a,e growing less every
day In its incensed feeling. Russia
would be glad of meeting without
Britain; and there is some little dan
ger that Britain may yet be left al
most alone to grapple with the diff
ficulty. The prospect of an Anglo
Austrian alliance has very much
diminished. Like Britain, Austria
still demands a revision Of the whole
treaty. But whether supported or not
by European alliance Britain is
committed to q course from which she
cannot honorably recede; and unless
there be disposition to give way on
the part of Russia it is difficult to see
how war may be avoided. We may
yet hope for merciful intervention tC
save the nation from the horrors OF
war. But at this moment the cloud
is dark and threatening.

Ague Cure,


all the affections which arise from malari-
GUS, marsh, or miasmatic poisons.
This is Q compound remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable ingredients, which
rarely fails to cure the severest cases OF Chills
and Fever and the concomitant disorders. Such
a remedy the necessities of the people in mala-
rious districts demand, Its great superiority
over any other medicine yetdiscovered for the
cure of Intermittents is, that it contains no qui.
nine or mineral, and those who take it are free
from danger of quinism or any injurious effects,
and are as healthy after using it rs before. 1t
has been extensively employed during the last
thirty years in the treatment of these distressing
disorders, and so unvarying has been its success
that thas gained the reputation of being infal-
lible. 1t can, therefore, be safely recommended
as a sure remedy and specific for the Fever and
Ague of the West, and the ChiIls and Fever of
the South. 1t counteracts the miasmatic poison
in the blood, and frees the system from its nfu-
ence SO that fever and ague, shakes or chills,
once broken up by it, do not return until the
disease is again contracted.
The great variety of disorders which arise from
the irritation of this poison, such as Neuralgia,
Rheumatism, Gout, Headache, Blindness,
Toothache, Earacho, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal
pitation, Splenic Affections, Mysteries, Pain
In the Bowels, Collie, Paralysis, and derange-
of the Stomach, all of which become intermit-
tent or periodical, have no speeder remedy than
AYERS A6UE CURE, which cures them all alike,
and protects the system from future attacks. As
q preventive, it is of immense service in those
communities where Fever and Ague prevails, as
it stays the development of the disease If taken
on the first approach ofthe premonitory symp.
toms. Travellers and temporary residents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
will ever suffer if they avail themselves of the
protection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpidity,
it is an excellent remedy; it stimulates this organ
into healthy activity, and produces many remark
able cures where other medicines fail
