Ria Pacha.

Ria Pacha, reputed to be one of the
richest men in Turkey, who died at
Kadikeui not long ago, was in some re-
spects a remarkable man. He was
originally an Arab slave boy. He was
brought to Constsntinople at the Eegin-
ming of the present century, and rose to
some of the highest offices in the State,
having been six times minister of war,
thrice minister of marine and thrice
grand master of artillery. He held office
at various critical periods of Turkish
history, and was at the head of the war
office during the Crimean war, during
the Syrian massacres and European
occupation, and during the insurrectiOn
at Crete. He was decorated with many
orders at various times, having received
the highest Turkish orders of the Os-
mamie and the Mediidie, the Persian
Order OF the Lion and the Sun, the
orders of the Bath, of the Legion of
Honor, of the Austrian st, Leopold and
the Iron Grown of Italy. Strange to
say, although he knew little French,
he never succeeded in mastering any
European language, but spoke Turkish
and Arabic fluently. Notwithstanding
his wealth he was not ostentatiously
charitable. His "good deeds" if he
performed any, were done in secret. He
was about seventy years old at the time
of his death, The latter years of his
life were quietly spent in his house at
Kadikeui, overlooking the Bosphorus
and the Sea of Marmora. 1t was his
daily custom when the weather permit
ted 10 walk to the seashore nd smoke
his tchiboudue there. HIS 3 editatiOnE
latterly must have been inter sting, and,
for a Turk of the "old school, not nj.
together pleasant.

A Terrible MntinY.

Commander Rodgers of the United
States steamer Adams writes to the sec
retaTy of the navy from Sandy Point,
Straits of Magellan, giving an account of
mutiny among the soldiers and con-
victs at that place. He says: It APP
pears that the plan of the mutineers was
to take possession of the German steamer
Memphis and go off in her, or failing in
that, to take the Pacific Steam Naviga-
ton Company's steamer then about due
from Valparaiso. got under way with
all despatch, and arrived here (Sandy
Point on the evening of the 14th. On
the way up the guns were loaded, as
well as the small arms, and all prepara-
tions made for any emergency. / found
the Chilian corvette Magellaneo already
here, having come down from Skyring-
Water, where she had been employed
surveying. / went on board her and
found the governor of the colony there,
and have since gathered the following
particulars of what seems to be the most
terrible mtitiny on record, so far as num-
bers are concerned. It appears that
about midnight on Sunday, Nov. 11th,
the people Of the town were alarmed by
the discharge of artillery and firearms.
The first murder committed seems to
have been that of the captain of the COM
pany of soldiers, numbering about one
hundred, who were regular artillery
troops. They mutilated the captain in
the most horrible manner, and then
opened fire with several pieces of artil-
lery upon the governors house, directly
in front of the barracks. The governor,
upon making his appearance. was
knocked in the head and left insensible.
He, however, recovered after some time,
and made his escape to the country.
His family also escaped, almost naked,
to the woods. The mutineers then re-
leased the convicts, and altogether num-
bered nearly 200, armed with Winchester
and Spencer rifles. During Monday,
Nov. 18th, the mutineers seemed to
have committed the most incredible ex-
cesses in the way OF wanton killing,
burning, and sacking. On Tuesday,
Nov. 18th, the mutineers deserted the
place and took to the country, carrying
with them all the public funds and much
private property. The last heard from
them was that they numbered ninety
four armed men, and were about two
days march from here on the way tC
Santa Cruz. AS last act of destruc
ton, they burned all the public property
and number of stores in fact, the
best part of the town is in ashes. Upor
my arrival the streets were strewn will
the dead bodies of the killed, thirty OF
which were gathered up. Most of the
killed were soldiers, who had been
shooting each other Unfortunately
1t is estimated that at least fifty person
were killed. Many dead and wounde,
were burned in the buildings. The hos
pital was burned with five wounded mel
| in it.

Harriet Lane and ..Dolly" Madison.

A Washington correspondent says
Harriet Lane, President Buchanan's
niece. who presided over his household,
and who is now the wife of Henry Elliott
Johnson, a Baltimore merchant, is prob
ably the most beautiful woman who ever
lived in the White House. She was
golden blonde with violet eyes, and came
to Washington after Il career OF dazzllng
brilliancy in the royal court OF England,
A British man-of-war was named after
her by order of her majesty the queen.
Her receptions at the White House are
remembered as the most brilliant ever
known, and old residents here will never
cease telling of them. Dolly Madl-
son was a different woman-more like
Mrs. Hayes. She really presided at the
White House for sixteen years. During
Jefferson's administration, while her
husband was secretary OF state, and, I'M
mediately after, during her husbands
eight wears term as Pres dent. So popu-
lar was she, that an act of Congress was
passed unanimously conferring upon her
the franking privilege for life, and the
Senate unanimously adopted resolution
admitting her TO the floor OF ITS chamber,
She was the onlywoman upon whom these
honors were ever conferred. Dolly
Madison continued to live in Washington
after her husbands death, and erected
house on Lafayette square, dlagonaliy
opposite from where Charles Sumner
used TO live. She died there in lS49,
and her obituary in the National Iateth-
Qencer announced that she was the most
popular woman in America
