The war in the Fast does not settle rap
idly toward II condition of peace and quiet.
The thunders and lightnings of war are not
in active play, but the storm cloud hangs
heavily and darkly over the scene The
Turks seem to he of opinion that the terms
offered by Russia are by far too oppressive,
and hence are tardy in signing the conditions
dictated by the Car through General IONA
TIEFP. 1t is represented that the offensive
conditions relate in part to the narrowing
of the Turkish territory, and to that ica-
turr which virtually involves the expulsion
of the entire Mussulman population from
the territory lost TO Turkey. The Car has
not yet fully relinquished his purpose Of
entering ConstantinOple with u portion of
his army and the British irOn-clads
hover around and in the vicinity
of the Turkish capital under
an arrangement not to land troops on
the Dardancllcs unless the Russians should
attempt an entrance into COnstantinOple,
and then, of course, it will feel called upon
TO protect British subjects from the conse-
qucnces OF such an advance Thus the lion
and the bear stand looking each other
sulkily in the face while all the rest of the
world are looking on with interest, TO be
taught by events whether peace or war is to
be the immediate future estate of Europe.
Another offensive step on either side, and
those great Powers not yet involved in the
struggle will follow their sympathies and
drift into the melee on the side that they
may lead for they are are all armed to the
teeth and waiting for the fray. The indi-
cations may point to desire for peace on
the part of the belligerents, but it is not as
sured. The future is full of doubt and
peril.

1t is curious commentary upon the
Democacy-that party which always pre-
tends to be progressive, to be the friend of
the wOrkingmen, and to be ever imbued
with the spirit of intelligence and sound
iudgmCnt-that il should now be found re-
ducing the salaries of our diplomatists and
consuls, opposing the appropriations for
continuing the work on public buildings
and other public works, and doing other
acts calculated to injure and destroy our
commercial relations with foreign countries,
and to make the privation and distress Of
the wOrkingmcn but dOubly bitter.
And Democracy does not stop here. Not
satisfied with this retrograde movement in
the diplomatic and consular service. il must
strike at the army-the protector and de-
fender of the nation. There are Common
wealths in this country who think we do
not need the services of an army. And we
regret to say there are some Democrats of
like opinion. We think an army was neces-
sary for the preservation and restoration of
the public peace in several of the States

SENATOR LAMAR is very unhappy, we
are told. Well, he should learn to study
the interests of the people of Mississippi in
stead of those of the people of Wall street.
He knew that equity demanded that silver
should be restored to the same position in
the coin family which it occupied when the
national debt was made payable in coin.
His people knew that and Senator BRUCE,
dark as his skin is saw it and voted ac-
cordingly. Now, the Legislature of Mssis-

The ReEorm Movement.

1t is to be hoped that our people who favor
total abstinence from intoxicating stimulants,
will not suffer their attention to be diverted
from the good work by the sensational reports
prciudicial to the character and conduct of
Mr. FRANCIS MURPHY, or any other of the
conspicuous apostles Of temperance. These
reports are in many instances fabricated by
inimical agencies and in all others greatly
exaggerated by the sen ational press which
gives circulation to them, and which Is under
the influence, to greater or less degree Of the
moderate drinking classes. Abstainers, and
especially earnest and active workers in the
cause, should not countenance jealousos in
their ranks, or aid in giving currcncy to re-
ports of them. On the contrary. success de-
mands that the least appearance Of heart burn
ings should be instantly smothered and healed.
If any of the reclaimed, or of the laborcrs ia
the cause, do not see things as others sec them,
let each and all work in their own way. They
cannot all travel precisely the same path to
the common destiny. Such All immense army
requires any roads. But so long rs all the
leaders march in the right direction, and the
rank and file press onward taking care to as
sist the weary who fall by the way-side and
to gather in those stragglers who arc so easily

that the President will veto it, and they
speak on that point with much positive

action the President may decide upon in

drew very clear distinction between
