1t does not appear that the English
have made any preparations to send a
feet to the Baltic, or to the White Sea
and SO long as they refrain from any
demonstrations against Northern Russia,
one hardly can believe that they are Sc
riously thinking of war. They could
throw that part of the Cars dominions
into panic, by such display of naval
force as all the rest of the world could
not make, were its fleets to be combined
in an attempt to Guido the only great
maritime power that exists. Great Brit
ish armies are not likely to be seen soon,
but Great British fleets could be placed
on the ocean in a few weeks. AS sea-
lion, the British Lion is as potent an
animal as he was seventy years ago,
when it was said that the ocean had been
added to the British Empire.

AN ASTONISHING FAoT.-A large pro-
portion of the American people are to-day
dying from the effects of dyspepsia or
disordered liver. The result of these
diseases upon the masses of intelligent
and valuable people is most alarming,
making life actually burden instead of
enjoyment and usefulness as it ought to
be. There is no good reason for this, if
you will only throw aside prejudice and
skepticism. take the advice of druggists
and your friends, and try one bottle Of
Green's August Flower. You can buy a
sample bottle for 10 cents to try. Three
doses will relieve the worst case. Posi-
lively sold by all druggists on the West
ern Continent. Sold in Barton Village
by E. F. Dutton; at Barton Landing by

RUssIA's TRIUMPH.-The Gar of
Russia has contaminated the work be-
gun by Peter the Great; he has extin-
guished, practically, the unspeakable
Turk in Europe, and left him with but
a shadow of glory in Asia. He has Gre
ated Slavic Empire, which, under the
name of Servia, RoumaDia and Bulga-
ria, virtually because an aphanage of
the Russian Crown. At the same time
he has secured possession of the mouth
of the Danube, and the command of the
shores of the Black Sea, the Bosphorus,
the Sea of Marmora, the Dardanelles
and the mouth of the Egean Sea. The
war leaves the Cossack and the Prussian
the dominant powers of Europe. Lord
Beacons6eld said some time ago that
England would henceforth be an Asiatic
Power, and as a consequence he created
Queen Victoria Empress of India. The
race for empire in the East is between
Russia and England, and hence the des-
perate efforts the latter has made to
checkmate Russia, both in the war just
concluded and in the conditions of peace.
At no distant period great conflict must
come in Asia between these two great
ambitious powers.

A VERY VALUABLE HIsToRY.-We
have received from the National Publish
ing Company Of Philadelphia the advance
sheets of their new work, entitled 1.-The
Pictorial History of the World" by
James D. McCabe, well-known histor
zeal writer. 1t is the most valuable book
that has been published in this country
for many years. 1t contains separate
and admirably written history of every
nation of ancient and modern times, and
is full of useful information concerning
them, presented ia popular style, and in
a manner that will enable the reader to
refer instantly to any subject upon which
information is desired. The book is a
complete treasury of history, and there
is no question that can be asked concern
ing any historical subject, but an answer
to it can be found in this work. The
author does not content himself with a
mere dry statement Of facts. but sketches
the life and manners of the various ma
lions of which he treats, in life-like col
ors. and presents to the reader the causes
which led to the prosperity and decay of
the great powers of the world. He shows
us the various great men-the warriors,
statesmen, poets, sages, and orators-of
ancient and modern times, and makes
them familiar to the reader; he explains
! the secret motives of their actions, and
points out the lessons which their lives
teach. A valuable feature of this work
is complete history of the late war be-
tween Russia and Turkey,-the only one
in print. The mechanical execution of
the book deserves the highest praise. 1t
contains 1860 large double column pages,
printed in the clearest and most beautl-
full style on paper of the very best quail
ity. The book is embellished with over
$50 fine engravings. embracing battles
and other historical scenes; portraits Of
the great men of ancient and modern
times; and views of the principal cities
of the world.
1t is for sale by subscription only, and
agents will find that it is work that the
people really want. See the publishers
advertisement for agents in another
column.
