The British Fleet in the Dardanelles.

A LONDON newspaper of a recent date
prints letter written by an officer on
board one of the iron-clads, describing
to the Dardanelles:
1.-The morning of Jan. "a was calm
and sunshiny as the fleet lay quietly at
anchor in Vourlah Bay expecting the
arrival of the mail and news from Eu-
rope, of which there was a most consid-
cradle dearth. Toward noon the wind
began to rise to stiff breeze, and, while
lunch was on, telegram arrived, the
upshot of which was that the signal
went up to prepare instantly for sea.
Before five O'Clock the fleet, consisting
of the Salamis, the yacht of the Com
mander-in-Chief, the Agincourt, the
flagship of Sir S. c. Commerell, the
Swiftsure, Temeraire, Sultan, Rupert,
Hotspur, Ruby and Research, were
under way, and proceeded north past
the island of Lesbos. The orders were
to pass through the Dardanelles peace
fully, ifpossible, but to resist any attempt
at obstruction. TWAS prevalent idea
in the fleet that permission had been
SidhuSu III lilC Ill 81 luSL'tllCt ny bllC L uTh-
ish Government, but that it had been
subsequently rescinded. The night of
the departure was stormy, and the day
dawned bleak and rainy when the island
of Tenedos came in view. The Salamis
steamed into Besika Bay for the latest
telegram, and on coming out the Admit
raj shifted his flag to the Sultan. The
fleet then received orders to prepare for
action without any outward demonstra-
ton, so that though the upper yards
were sent down the topgallantmasts were
left standing. The Salamis then steamed
ahead to Chanak to give warning of the
approach of the fleet. Early in the
afternoon the entrance was reached,
the fleet halted for short time at the
Rubicon, and then in good order, col
umn of divisions line ahead, steamed
quickly into the Dardanelles. No at
tack was expected from the forts SedA
dul Bahr, or Castle Of Europe, and Kun
Kaleb, the Castle of Asia, at the en-
trance, as in any case the fight for the
passage must have really taken place
at Chanak, the narrowest part of the
strait. The guns were now loaded and
run not quite out, but only level with
the ships side, and with the tompions
in them. The men were cheerful and
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1878-03-16

steady, though at the moment every
man believed that fighting must ensue
with the terrible forts at Chanak, and vet
none knew whom they were going to
tight-whether Turks or Russians-nor
why they were going to fight them, for
In the fleet there was no news of what
was going on in the world ashore. At
length the terrible Chanak was ap-
preached, and then at the last moment
was seen signal hoisted from the Sal
amis, which told that the passage
would not be disputed The Sultan
then saluted the Turkish flag and pro-
ceeded with the Salamis; and. to the
general disappointment, the remainder
of the fleet was ordered to return to the
nearest anchorage, Besika Bay. Dur
ing the journey the larger iron-clads
had all their steam anchors ready, SO
that they might be anchored, bow and
stern, off the forts, to assist them if re-
quired. There is an old castle and
strong earth fort on the opposite side
of the narrows to Chanak, and the
stream is known to have torpedoes laid
down, so that the most sanguine could
not have expected Il bloodless victory,
had it been necessary to force the OAR
danelles. The fleet had IL most impos-
ing aspect, and there was much that
was striking to be seen from the fleet
itself. On its return the day cleared
up, and there was seen the grand island
of lmbos basking in the sun. Est IN
conSpectW IenedoS, for the peak was
not lost sight of from sunrise If every
one at home only knew how anxious
the crews of the ships are to get some
real news about the war, they could not
but admire the cheerful obedience with
which the men execute orders which
are unintelligible to them. 1t is inter-
esting as well as important to know
that as the fleet passed between the
Castles of Europe and Asia the guard
turned out and presented arms to the
ships. There was a strong feeling in
the fleet at the time of the advance that
the passage of the Dardanelles could
certainly have been forced had it been
required. But at Chanak there are two
low forts, stated to mount forty-ton
Krupp guns, and there is an upper fort,
with a plunging fire, so that it would
have taken some time to destroy them. -

An American Lady Abroad.

The British Consul here has been
called upon to take action in very
singular affair, which has created no
little sensation in the north of Cata-
lonia. About six weeks ago q lady who
during last autumn astonished the in
habitants of Edinburgh by having her
horse shod with gold arrived at La
Junquera, a small village upon the
Spanish side of the Eastern Pyrenees,
upon the high road from Perpignan to
Barcelona. She had with her, in addi-
ton to a large quantity of camp furni-
ture, the horse which had been shod
with gold, and about Is, 900 in English
sovereigns. The Spanish Custom-House
is at La Junquera, and the officials de-
tanned her there for several days, sus-
pecting that the gold which they found
in her bag was the proceeds of rob-
berry committed in France week or
two before. 1t was soon ascertained
that the lady had been unjustly sus-
pected; but when she was informed that
she was at liberty to continue her Jour
ney she declined to leave the small inn
at which she had been living under the
surveillance of the Spanish police.
There she remained for some time,
paying at the rate of two dollars day
for accommodation which is usually
charged five pesetas (about four shil-
lmgs) and occasionally throwing money
from the window to be scrambled for
by the children of the village. These
facts having been brought to the notice
OF the Civil Governor of the province
(Gerona), he communicated with the
British Consul at Barcelona, who sent
his Secretary to La Junquera with a
letter advising the lady to come to
Barcelona, telling her that La Junquera
was not a safe place for her to remain
without any protection. She declined,
however, to move, but she appears
some time after to have paid visit to
Saragossa, from which place she was
brought, under escort of the gendar-
merle, to Barcelona, and the Consul
placed her in n hotel here. But she
started again the next day for La jun
guerra, where she had left her horse and
the bulk of her luggage; and there she
still is. Hitherto her eccentricities
have been so far protection to her
that they have attracted the attention
of the police; but for which, to use the
British COnsurs expression, "some of
the Carlist brigands hanging about the
frontier would have cut her throat long
ago" As it is, she was robbed two or
three weeks ago of f200 and of her gold
watch; and, though the thief was ar
rested by the French police across the
frontier and the money found upon
him, she refused to appear and sign the
statutory declaration which would have
enabled her to recover the money. |
happened to see this very eccentric per-
son, but without knowing who she was,
while at Perpignan in the early part of
December. She arrived at the princi-
pal hotel in the town with her horse
and baggage, giving twenty francs to
the man who led the former from the
station, and the same sum to the con-
ductor of the omnibus.

Getting Married.

THE Rev. Matthew Hale Smith, in
recent lecture on "Our Young Married
People " after quoting various portions
of the Bible to show that conjugal love
is inculcated in every portion of it,
went on to speak of the relations be-
tween husband and WIFE, If the hus-
band demands reverence from his wife
he must in return treat her with the re-
spect due her and make her feel that
the respect and reverence are mutual.
Many ladies make bargain with the
minister before they are married that
the word obey shall be omitted from
the service. The omission makes no
difference. The Bible says distinctly
that the wife must obey her husband,
and the laws both of God and nature
demand proper obedience to hus-
bands wishes. When young couple
get married they know really nothing
about one another in most instances
and have to become acquainted with
each others character and qualities
after they are united. They cannot
learn these things before, because court
ship is full of receptions. The man de-
ceives the woman and the woman de-
ceives the man. Young people are in
too great haste to get married, and
nine-tenths of the marriages turn out
badly because the courtship and en-
gagement are too brief. After mar
riage, men are too often in the habit of
leaving the family affairs and the
bringing up of the children entirely to
the mother, thinking they haye done
their entire duty in earning the money
to support them. Many men lnow
nothing of their own children, ofGheir
associations and habits of life They
take no pains to study their characters,
and in some cases hardly know them
when they see them. One man n New
York was in the habit of going to his
business on Monday morning and not
returning until Saturday niglt, when
his wife would have the childrn prop
erly dressed, and would bring them
into the parlor and introduc them to
their father. The great conflict as to
who shall be head of the houe is sub
iect that is agitating the Whole world,
and is the cause of most family quar-
rels. In true marriage Their should be
no such conflict; both shout be willing
to give way and to make mutual con-
cessions. 1t is q terribl blow to a
mother to give her daughter to a
stranger, and to find thatthe affection
which she had fostered and called out
by years of loving care WIS transferred
to some man of whom the daughter
knew almost nothing. 1t does not
take much money to by the few COM
forts necessary to make a happy home;
and young man who would consent
to be dependent on his wife's father is
a very spoony fellow AMI does not de-
serve a wife.
