officer was sent off to know under what
flag he sailed, to which he replied, &C. The
flag of the United States.'' The mes
senger from the harbor fort returned,
and observed that such nation as the
''United States had never been heard
of before by the Turkish Government,
and desired that Capt. Bai1bridge would
explicitly state whence he came. He
then reported his vessel as belonging to
the "New World" which Columbus
had discovered, on hearing which the
messenger Immediately repaired to the
shore. In a few hours he returned, and,
for the first time, came on board the
frigate, bringing with him a lamb and a
bunch Of flowers, the former as an en-
blem OF peace. and the latter OF well
come. The Sultan then offered the yes-
sci the hospitality of the inner harbor.
He was much satisfied at the salute fired
on passing his palace. Noticing the
stars in the United States flag, he re-
marked that, as his own was decorated
with one of the heavenly bodies, he con-
sidered the coincidence as an omen of
the friendly intercourse between the two
nations. The Minister of Foreign AZ
fairs having threatened to seize his ves-
sci, Bainbridge put himself under the
protection of Lord Elgin, the British
Ambassador. When the Capudan
Pasha soon after arrived with the fleet,
he removed all further difficulties.

brother-in-law of the Sultan The Porte
refused, however, to receive the Alger-
inc Ambassador or his presents, order
ed him to return, and to carry to his
master, the Dey, the Sultan's demand
to declare war against France, to remit
to him million piasters for his daring
presumption, and to do all within GO
days. The Capudan Pasha told Balm
bridge it was the first time foreign
armed vessel had reached Constantine
pie without having first obtained a
/" firman'' from the Grand Seignor. 1t
must have been the fault of the negli-
gence of the Commander of the Castles.
He had put him in confinement, and his
execution was only delayed until the
sentence had received his (the Pasha's)
signature, which would not be with
held. Bainbridge took the whole blame
on himself, frankly Iolu Ill In0 clrcum-
stances, and finally saved the life of the
offending Pasha at the Dardanelles. The
Sultan gave him, on leaving, firman
of protection. When in an audience
with the Dey, he refused to go second
time to Constantinople on his business,
he flew into a rage, andwould have had
him murdered on the spot had he not
displayed the Sultan's firman. This
brought him to terms, and cambridge

Peters Pence.

The Camerlengo, that is to say, the
Chamberlain of the Vatican, has found
in the Pope's desk $4,000, which, of
course, was only a little loose change
which the Pontiff happened to have
about him at the time of his decease.
The bulk of his property, amounting to
1924, 600, 600, is on deposit with the
Rothschilds. This money, it should be
added, constitutes the Papal Govern
ment funds, and descends entire to the
Church. It represents the accumula-
tions of the g Peters Pence" contribu-
tons which amount to nearly $4,000,
900 yearly, a large portion of course,
being used to defray the expenses of the
Holy See. The Italian Government
each year presents to the Pope $645, 900
for his civil list, q single note for that
sum being especially egraved. This
sum His Holiness has always declined
to receive, but it would doubtless aston
ish the Government considerably if a
less scrupulous successor. were not only
to accept the next note, but to claim the
nine years arrearages of pay. To pay
out nearly S6.000,000 at this time would
undoubtedly seriously discommode King
Humbert's financier. "a

How an American Commodore Ran the
Dardanelles.

Commodore Bainbridge's run through
the Dardanelles in 1901 was so remark
able that it deserves a detailed descrip-
ton. He had arrived at Algiers with
the tribute, which the United States, in
common with all other Governments,
then paid to the Dey. While his vessel,
the frigate George Washington, was ly-
ing at anchor under the batteries of Al
giers, the Dey requested him to carry
his Ambassador and presents to the Sui
tan, his suzerain, whom he had offend
ed by concluding treaty of peace with
France when Turkey and her British ally
were carrying on a war in Egypt against
the French army under Bonaparte. Up
on refusing to go on such an errand, the
Dey insolently remarked to him: g You
pay me tribute by which you become my
slaves; | have, therefore, a right to or
der you as | please Fearing the loss
of the frigate, and the slavery of. him.
self and crew, and the sacrifice of our
valuable commerce in that quarter by
the Algerine corsairs, Bainbridge finally
consented to execute the mission. In
reporting these proceedings, and which
were subsequently approved by his Gov
ernment, Bainbridge said: 81 hope 1
may never be sent again to Algiers with
tribute, unless | am authorized to de-
liver it from thesm0uth of our cannon"
When the vessel was about sailing the
Dey insisted that the colors of Algiers
should fly at the main--an honor which
had always been yielded to him by the
English, French and Spanish command
ers who had been employed by him in
similar services. Bainbridge acceded
to the demand until he got out of reach
Of the guns of the harbor, and then he
hauled down the corsair flag and ran
up the Stars and Stripes. The Ambas-
sador had suite Of some 200 Mussul-
mans, with a large number of tigers
and other animals, and 100000 as
presents. The shifting of sail and nau-
tical maneuvers were much impeded
by the praying on deck of this crowd,
and their efforts to keep their faces
turned to Mecca. After stormy pas
sage the castles of the Dardanelles were
reached. Fearing, if he was to apply.
he would not get a firman to pass up to
the capital, he made show of coming
to, partially Chewing up his sails, and in
the meanwhile firing salute. AS soon
as the castles began to respond he spread
all his canvas to the wind, which was
blowing strong aft, and before his OPP
erations could be discerned he was be-
yond the cannon range and spanking
along against the current in dashing

Our American Neighbors. 4

The United States have upon their
borders, within easy reach, number of
national neighbors who ought to be our
customers. They are in one sense Gus
tomers-that is, we buy largely of them,
and they take our money and buy goods
with it of other countries. We refer to
Mexico, the States of Central America
and of South America, and to the West
India Islands The character of this
trade with States almost at our doors is
shown in the values of what we buy of
them and of what we sell TO them. We
give the totals for 1871:
