PRINCE GRANT,

Many persons may think it strange
That Gen. Grant should be thought of
for prince of Bulgaria, and they may
even doubt his eligibility. But the
candidates for the throne are not re-
stricted to Europeans. Under the pro-
visions of the first and third articles of
the treaty of Berlin, Bulgaria is con-
stituted an automatic tributary prin-
cipality under the s~uzerainty of the
sultan with u Christian government
and a national militia. The pripce is
to be elected by the population, and
their choice is to be approved and con-
firmed by the porte, and by England,
France, Germany, Russia, Austria and
Italy. No member of any reigning
European dynasty is eligible to the post
and this provision of the treaty has
greatly limited the number of eligible
candidates. The ~far-spread and bril-
liant reputation of Gen. Grant rs a
soldier and a ruler, it is said, has led
the Bulgarian mobiles, who are now de-
batting among themselves the question
of a ruler and the details of a new con-
stitution, to look upon him as the most
desirable prince. 1t is urged that he
would be most eminently fitted for the
post under the provisions of the treaty
Of Berlin. The most perfect equality
in political and religious rights is to be
extended to all the inhibatants of Bull
garia, and it is thought a wholly impair
tial foreigner like Gen. Grant can best
secure this equality. No formal prop
osition on the part Of the Bulgarian
notabilities has yet been made to Gen.
Grant, and if made, it is thought the
general will decline the honor.
Toa man who is S % highly esteemed
in a great civilized nation like the
United States, and who has even a fair
of becoming its chief magistrate
for a third term, the bauble of princely
among such people as the Bull
garians offers no Inducements, at least
that we al see. Grants saving sense
will resist the temptation of royalty.

The Pommerania was made of a mis-
erably poor quality of iron, just like
that generally used in British shipyards
to turn out cheap hulks. In the Unit
ed States better iron is put into vessels,
and of course they cost more. This
new fact regarding the Pommerania
will destroy to a great extent the force
of Senator Beck's bill permitting Amer

rine to have a ship crumble like an egg

IT WOULD be difficult to find more
bloodthirsty soldiers than Bashi-Ba-
zouks or Circassians. But when they
make common cause against an enemy,
God pity the ,enemy's country. These
trained murderers recently undertook
TO put down the Bulgarian instruction
in Macedonia. AS the first installment
of their work they routed the insur-
gents, destroyed t~wenty-six villages,
and only 1000 inhabitants thereof es-
capped their fury. 1t is time for the
powers to interfere and stop such UNI
civilized warfare as well as the massa.
ores of innocent women and children.

THERE are crusty old bachelors who
contend that marriage is simply a game
of deception; each one tries to fool
the other the most. However, this is
sometimes the fact, though not always,
by any means. When such things do
occur there is usually the overture of a
spat, followed by a formal application
for divorce on the part of the n who
was the worst taken in. Such "a -cast
came up in IN Ohio court recently. II
was decided, however, that misrepresen-
tation as to social standing, is not a
valid plea, so the LADY of Lyons" in
the case was sent home.

IT Is generally expected at Madrid
that if Moncasi is sentenced to death,
the king will exercise his prerogative of
pardon. The mode of execution in
Spain is a somewhat barbarous one, as
the condemned man Is placed upon q
chair, as in a sitting position, and then
strangled. The execution takes place
in public, and after it is over the body
is placed upon a scaffold, and exposed
to view several hours, with monks in
the somber garb of penitents surround
ing 1t and reciting prayers for the dead.

PAINLESS DEATH.
The Deep.sea sOundings OF Gho
Dark Abyss.

The Deep.sea sOundings OF tho
Dark Abyss.
Boston Letter to Chicago Journal.l
Perhaps one of the most interest
ing chapters in DR.. Clark's new
book is hat which treats Of the
visions Of the dying. The phenom-
enon of death is only little UNDER
stood. The mystery which shrouds
death is not greater than that which
shrouds birth, or thought or volt
ton yet religion and various other
things have all conspired to misin-
terpret its attendant phenomena.
"One Of the most common errors"
says DR.. Clarke, sis the idea that
pain and dying are inseparable COM
panions. The truth is they rarely
go together. Occasionally, the act
of dissolution is painful one, but
this is an exception, and a rare ex-
ception to the general rule. The
rule is that Inconsistencies, not
pain, attends the final act. Con-
ynlsiye twitohings, liyid features,
gurgling in the throat, and similar
CHASTITY symptoms which mark the
last moment, are only exhibitions
OF unconscious automatic action.
The testimony Of the dying, 80 long
as they are able to give any testi-
mony, is hat their sufferings do
not increase as the termination Of
life'approaches, but on the contrary
grow less.
THE FOLLOWING INCIDENT
illustrates the truth of this remark,
and so far as a single instance is Of
value, confirms what has been said
as to the painlessness of dissolution,
= medical friend, whom | attended
professionally in his last illness, was
a victim Of a most painful disease.
He was aware of its incurable char
acter. Supported by an intelligent
faith in God and Immortality, be
prepared himself with admirable
courage and unfaltering trust for
the final change. In consequence
of continual and severe pain, he
was obliged during the last few
months Of his life to take opium

"They do" was the reply.
"'Then / have reached the end
of the chapter he quietly re-
marked, and added, how long shall

"'That you know l said, 'as
we'll as any one; perhaps twenty
four hours or thirty-six hours
Scarcely needing the reply he
continued: g8li
81 am ready; but promise me
this; that l shall not suffer pain if
you can prevent it,
"The promise was given, Of
course, and l agreed to see him
every hour or two as long as he
lived. This being done, l said to
him, Zone thing remains; how

when, at the very close, the time
comes that you cannot indicate
whether You suffer or not?"
After a little talk the following
signals were agreed upon. He was
to indicate a negative answer, or
no, by raising the forefnger; and an
affirmative answer, or yes, by rails
ing the fore6nger and the one next
1t also. One finger was no; two
fingers, yes. Having arranged this
matter, he took rather more than
his habitual dose of opium, and
was soon comparatively quiet. The
pain did not rturn. For twelve or
fifteen hours he appeared much as
usual; conversed with his family
and friends, and was cheerful and
serene. Then, as natures anes-
thetic began to act, he became dull
and heavy. In answer to repeated
inquiries as to pain, he constantly
replied in the negative. At length
he answered less readily. For an
hour or so before death he answered
only by the signal of his fingers
which had been agreed upon, and
by that signal he replied quickly
and intelligently. Fifteen minutes
before dissolution l asked him,
'Do you suffer pain?' He instantly
made the negative signal by raising
the forefnger. After this be made
no sign, but slept peacefully to the
end,
