Layard at ComstantinopIe.

London Truth, Of the 9th inst, gives
the following explanation of Englands
anger at Turkey, and why Turkey yearns
for Russia's friendship; Last week there
WAS a row at Constantinople. The Turk
ish Minister of Foreign Affairs was sent
to ak respecting the movements of the
British feet. Sir Henry Lavard sent Sir
Alfred Sanderson to the Sultan to cx-
plain matters, and to say that ds the re-
forms promised in Asia Minor had not
been inaugurated, Her Majesty's Govern
ment must take measures to enforce
them.
On this the Sultan was exceedingly in
dignant. He said that Sir Henry must
know that it was out of the power of the
Porte to ADOPT reforms and that, as
coercion is to be employed, he (the Sui
tan) must seek friends elsewhere. The
Russian Embassador was at once sent for,
and dispatched with message from the
Sultan to the Car at Lividia. In a tele-
gram reciting what passed, the English
ambassador, of course, indirectly depre-
Gates harsh measures being adopted to
his friends the Turks. 1t will be a fitting
climax to the folly Of our policy toward
the Porte if we find ourselves dragged
into contest against them, with Russia
backing them up.
1t is really too foolish Of ministers moi
to recall Sir Henry Layard. A certain
amount of misdirected energy Sir Henry
has, but it is the energy of bull in q
china shop. The Turks are now entirely
cured Of their illusions and Sir Henry il
personally unpopular. He ought, in the
public interests, to be recalled. He was
pitchforked into the diplomatic service
and he might, therefore, be civilly bowed
out of it without any spolia opima. The
Constantinople correspondent Of The
Daily Telegraph says: During the Brit
ish ambassadors absence from his pos
Prince Lobanoff turned his opportunity
to the best account.
The Sultan was easily made to believ,
that the object Of Sir Henry's journey
was to prepare the ground for the direc
intervention of England in Asia Minor
He was haunted with visions of his own
deposition and Of Midhat's return to of
flee. His confidence in bis ministers wa
shaken, and he was prevailed upon with
out difficulty to replace them by mel

Wed din Customs.

In Sweden, a bride has her pockets
filled with bread. 1t is supposed that
every piece she gives to the poor
on her way to church averts misfor-
tune. In Norway, the bride herself
hands round some drinks, that all the
company may drink long life to her; the
wedding feast lasts some days, and the
guests have no wish to let their modera-
ton be known. In Liburna, it is the
custom for the bride to retire from the
table before the end of the dinner, and
to throw over the bridegroom's house. y
hard cake made of coarse -four; the
higher she throws it the happier will she
be. In Circassia, there are always set
upon the carpet, in one of the rooms in
the bridegroom's house, vessel of wine
and plate of dough; and the first thing
the bride does, on entering, is to kick
over the wine and scatter the dough with
her hands about the room. In some
parts of Russia, the bride and bride
groom, during the banquet which always
takes place on the evening Of the wed
ding day, are separated by curtain
The parents of the couple exchange
rings, and basket of cheese and small
loaves is blessed by the priest.

lPall Mall Gazette.

A judgment lately pronounced by q
court of justice at Dresden may serve as
warning to those benevolent persons,
in Germany at all events, who may be
tempted to give their servants on dis
charge better character than they had
proved themselves entitled to. A mer-
chant at Dresden a short time ago en-
gagged young man belonging to fam
lily of good position and highly recon-
mended by his last employers as cashier
in retail place of business. In this po-
stion it was his duty to receive all money
paid in during the day and convey it in
the evening to the head bookkeeper of
the establishment.
Several circumstances led to the suspi-
cion that the new cashier did not give up
at the end Of the day all the money paid
to him during the hours of business.
Consequently arrangements were made
for checking the sums collected and paid
over by the young man, and in few
days it was ascertained that he had ap-
propriated at least ESQ. The defaulting
cashier was accordingly summarily dis
missed, and his employer applied to the
merchant who had originally given him
good character for repayment of the
sum stolen. This the merchant refused,
but on the matter being taken before a
court of justice, and on its being shown
that the young man had been discharged
by his first employer because he had
stolen money from him, and that the
good character had been given him from
a feeling of pity, the original employer
was ordered to make good his protege's
defalcation.

to all idea of reform. The situation was
getting more unsatisfactory every day.
The Russian ambassadors departure for
Lividia was announced, the Sultan had
communicated his apprehensions to the
shiek ul Islam and the leading Ulema,
and it was an open secret at
Stamboul that the injunetions OF the
western powers were about 10 meet with
determined resistance on the part OF the
Sultan. 1t was in presence of this state
of affairs that Sir Henry Layara resorted
to firm language; though he certainly did
not 60 as far a. he is represented to have
done by the Agence Havas. The news
that is regarded here as most serious Is
the obvious connivance of Russia with
the Sultan and his new ministers. If it
continues it will most undoubtedly lead
to trouble-at least such is the prevailing
impression here.
Prince Lobanof, 1t ia now evident, Is
simply following in the footsteps OF Gen.
Ignatieff, and the same men who, in
le ,gue with Ignatieff, brought on the late
war, are now the accomplices OF Prince
Lobanoff. The knot Of the eastern ques-
ton is there, and it is in Constantinope
that, sooner or later, the eastern ques-
ton will be finally solved. According to
an evening telegram from Alexandria, a
Molah named Ju>suf Mokassim arrived a
day or two ago at Djeddah, entrusted by
England with a mission to the Grand
Scherif Hussein Pasha, at Mecca.
Jussuf M0kassim states that the Grand
Scherif himself will most likely proceed
on important business to Constantinople.
Meanwhile, the Fremdenblatt publishes
letter. also from Alexandria, on the
present disturbed state of Arabia. The
Porte has lately been sending troops, via
Mesopotamia, to the province OF FL
Chatif, which borders on the sultanate of
Maskat, as it is there that the chief
danger exists. The signal for instruction,
says the correspondent, will come from
the Arabians, who are in secret alliance
for the purpose of restoring the khalifate,
with Abdul Aziz as their chief. They
will ultimately be joined by the Sultan OF
Maskat, who is prevented from taking a
leading part in the conspiracy by the
treaties that bind him to the Porte.

There have been sixteen executions of
