A Romantic Sequel 10 tie Russo
Turkish War.

Russian newspapers relate some rO-
mantle attachments which have sprung
up between Turkish prisoners of war
and Russian ladies of various ages in
the towns where the former have been
detained, leading in some cases to
somewhat sensational and rather in
convenient scenes upon the departure
of the Turks. At Charkoff Russian
girl, dressed up as a Turk, took up her
place among the returning MOslems.
She was detected on numbering the
persons conveyed in the car, AT Pol
taya young lady of position and edu-
cation insisted upon accompanying a
Turkish officer, to whom she earnestly
desired to be married, At the same
place the departure of one railway train
carrying liberated prisoners led to a
regular scene, necessitating the inter
ference of the police and calling for
orders which have since been given tC
prevent similar occurrences in future
A crowd Of ladies, young and old
some only school girls, assembled OF
the platform and took leave of the de
parting Turks in the most patheti,
and demonstrative Of ways. All EN-
braced, all kissed, some burst int
tears, others tainted away. All thi
was done in public. The school girl
taking part in the display have sine
been expelled from their schools.

A Roman Vendetta.

The London Times says A dread
full murder committed yesterday in
the Via del Carbonari, close to the
fountain Of Trevi, has created an in
tense excitement throughout the city
that can only be compared to the as
sassination of Signor Sonzogno, the
editor of the Capitale newspaper, in
1878, and the circumstances of which
it vividly recalls. The victim was a
Captain Fadda, paymaster of infantry.
The murderer had been seen lowering
about the Via del Oarbonari for some
days, following the captain through
the streets and making inquiries at his
house when absent.
Yesterday morning he succeeded in
decoying the captains orderly away,
and then obtaining entrance to his
rooms, he attacked him with a large
two-edged poniard. Attention had
just been attracted to the house by the
cries of Captain Fadda, when the
murderer fed from it, followed by his
victim, covered with blood and holding
a revolver in his hand. He pursued
his assassin a few yards and then fell
to the ground. The murderer was a
stranger to Captain Fadda, and would
seem to have been an instrument en-
plOyed to carry out vendetta.

TIIE TRANTP NUISANCE.

DR.. Holland, in Scribner's Monthly
has an interesting article on "Legisla-
ton Against Tramps.o He says that
as it is impracticable to Danish them
as the French once did, the next best
thing to do is to gather them in work
houses where they can be restrained
from crime and at the same time made
to earn an honest living. After re-
ferring to the failure of past legisla-
tion to correct the steadily increasing
evil he says: Legislation concerning
this evil seems to have been initiated
in various States, but at this writing
We cannot learn that anything effect
i've has been done, 1t would be well
If the States could work in concert in
this matter, but one great State like
New York, or Pennsylvania, or Ohio,
has only to inaugurate a stringent
measure to drive all the other States
into measures that shall be its equiya-
lent. The tramp whose freedom is
imperillcd in New York will fly to
New Jersey or New England, and
jersey aud New England will be
obliged toprotect themselves. So one
powerful State can compel unan-
unity of action throughout the
country. The legislature of New York
had bill up year ago which came tc
nothing. We hope the present ses
sion will see something done, but legis.
latois have so many things to do be.
sides looking after the public safety
and the public morality, that we arc
quite prepared to hear that this mat
tor will be overlooked. But some
thing must be done, somewhere, very
soon, if we propose to have anything
like safety and comfort in our homes
or to relieve ourselves Of a great bur
den of voluntary, vicious, and ever
malicious pauperism."

Rewnro al Chenn ExeItnnts

And use, ifiyou need tonic stimulant and
Alternative, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. The
liquors of commerce, even when they are not
adulterated, fail to produce more than a tenn
Dorary exhilaration, usually followed by a
depressing. reaction, anything but beneficial
to weekly constitution. Not only do the
potent botanic ingredients combined with
the alcoholic of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
minister to the health and yigor Of those who
use it, but the basis-pure old rye, the finest
and most salubrious liquor distilled, is no
mean promoter of healthful condition of
the digestive organs. Its presence in tho
BitteTs is essential to preserve their vegetable
constituents from fermentation, and il un-
9uesti0nably augments their remedial value.
Few medicinal preparations of n proprietary
nature have ever received such strong com
mendations from medical men.

WE give elsewhere all the returns
of the election in this county and dis
trict possible to publish in to-day's
paper The full vote of the county
will not run much over 5000. Colonel
Casey Young runs ahead of every
body, Notwithstanding the assertion Of
interested parties that he was not ac-
ceptable to his own party. He is
doubtless elected by a very flattering
majority, which insures US a good rep
resentative in congress two years lon
ger. The legislative ticket is not out
of tho woods yet, and the result will
not be known until the entire vote is
counted. Marks is elected governor
doubtless, and the Democrats have
gained a congressman in the First dis
trict.
