ttnue to act In groups at Berlin, but
not necessarily In hostile sense. Aus.

pose Russsla's claims. Germany, Italy
and France adopt medlat0ry attitude,
out this will not hinder them from v0t.

doubt Of thorough understanding be-

On the wall behind the pulpit no had
two maps OF the Eastern and Western
hemispheres. Ascending the pulpit al
s o'clock, with q stick, which he used
as a pointer, DR.. Msgoon, after an.
nouncing his text from the 3Slh chap.
ter of Ezekiel, proceeded 10 point out
the location Of Constantinople. "Thal

the Oriental countries" he said. "Tur.

cred In Scripture and the civilized
world for centuries. She would not
bulge from before the advancing
tide OF civilization. What must
DO the consequence, then9 She must
be crushed. Thirteen million Chris.
tians in Wallachia, Armenia, and other
provinces were groaning under the
oppression of the In6del Turk. Alex.
ander, Of Russia, had heard their cries,
and he would prove their liberatOr.
God speed him In his cause. Why did
England encourage the Turk to block
up the way OF civilization? Because
England berself wanted to get posses.
zion OF all the Eastern territory that
was OF any commercial importance.
She would gladly,if she could, plant
her flag at the mouth OF the Nile.
Where is she now on our own hemis.

DR.. Magoon pointed with his stick
TO the 81. Lawrence "Thers she is
now. And she would like, ii she

Merrimac, and then to the mouth OF
the Delaware, and then to the mouth
Of the Mississippi. Oh, yes; she
would like this very we'll. But she
tried that once aud | don't think she'll

The speaker said two good results
had grown out Of the Crimean war,
disastrous as II had been to Russia.
First, It had regeneraled the Russian
army, aud second, II had sunk England
to q lower depth than che had been be-.
fore. And II she went TO war with
Russia 1t would be safe TO predict, said
be, that when che came out Of it she
would be sunk 10 q still lower depth.

William OF Prussia will poiut 10

Another Learned Blacksmith.

LOckpOrt Journal
Small boys will learn with regret

ments, combs, bells and other articles
of common daily use, tracing their bis.
tory from Bible origin 10 the present
time. His writings are said to have at.
tracted much attention from literary
people, especially those who delight In
antiquities. Like his predecessor,
Elihu Burritt, this other "learned black.
smith" will probably be held up for
years 10 come as q model for the small
boy who, II is suspected, takes more
e e'thelCal delight in seeing the teacher
bound from the wrong end OF a crook.
ed pin inadvertently placed in his chair
than In the more complex labyrinth oil

new and fresh one will probably long
flourish to remind the rising genera.
tiOn how much better 1t is 10 study all
