~ An ex-editor of Shupe's
defunct New York Arocdte says
that the character and influence
of Hon. Peter Cooper was adroit-
ly used to back up the enterprise,
through the overweening conf
dence in some of the political
views advocated and the fiatter-
ing incense offered in its columns.
Over 100000 was received for
subscriptions to the paper and
as much more was taken from
poor sewing girls and others for
promised sewing machines, or
gdns, pianos and other cooper
ate goods. All i'll all, Shupe's
Advocate was one of the great
frauds of the day by which the
poor suffered.

NJ The Baltimore Gazette
suggests that, as one negro has
been found in Massachusetts, who
was bulldozed for voting for But
Ter, it will do as a basis for cur
failing the representation of that
State in Congress, upon the prin-
ciple advanced by some Of the
Northern leaders TO be applied
to South Carolina. This is sound
doctrine according to the new
hypothesis that it makes no diff
ference how many negroes were
inundated, buildozed or disfran-
chised. At the same time it IL
illustrates the absurdity of the
proposition and the illogical char
acter of the construction attempt
ed to be placed upon the amend
mcnts to the Constitution.

Scowling Is q habit that steals upon US una

and when it Is too weak. We tie our browS into
a knot when we are thinking, and knit them
even more tightly when we cannot think There

The Fame of Thackeray.

Thackeray is the only novelist of his time it
may safely be said whose popularity is increas-
ing. While his rivals are suffering from the re-
action that always follows success, he has been
steadily gaining ground. His mood is critical
enough to suit the taste Of the time, and not
critical enough to 1njure his novels as works OF
ant, for 1t Is obvious that with all his hatred of
slams, Thackeray's ScOrn OF conventions did not
go deep. In spite OF his professions, he was con-
tented to accept very conventional code OF
morality, and he turned away with Indifference
from many questions which a man 30 years
his Junior could not let pass so easily. AT bot
tom he showed the optimism OF the Waterloo
warriors whose weaknesses he knew so well
how to expose, and had he not done so he would
have been far less delightful writer than he is
1t is this mixture of half-hearted pessimism and
real optimism that makes Thackeray SO popular
at present. He was, too, the earliest prophet of
the Queen Anne'S men, and of that reaction in
favor of the eighteenth century that Is now so
powerful, and secures for ''Esmond" preference
to which we venture to think it is not entitled.
Admitting that Thackeray bestowed more labor
on "ESmond," and showed more artistic con-
science in it than in any of his other books, we
cannot allow that, admirable as it is as piece
of restoration" it has the vitality of 'Vanty
FAIR and "The NewcomeS" 1t is as painter
OF his own tmes-a painter who had no rival in
his own day-that Thackeray will be remem-
bered, and time will make of these wonderful
novels true historical romanceS. They will live
as vivid pictures of English society in the first
half Of the nineteenth century.-[The 4Hten4gttnl.

Fires i'm ConstantinOpIe.

The season Of fires has begun. AS soon as cold
weather set in, and Notwithstanding the blazing
afternoons, sunset brings chilly breezes to us,
then inevitably, in one quarter or another a
conf1agration Is sure to break out every night
Either careleSSneSS or faulty construction of
CRATES and lighting apparatus is the cause. The
first warning we have is from the s.bekdjee" or
night Waterman. Making his round he In
Stantly pounds on the pavement with heavy
iron-shOd staff, its ringing noise being easily
heard two or three blocks. The word is passed
from the watch-tOwerS to the bedkjeeS of the
locality OF fire, certain number of guns being
fired also for each quarter, VIZ, seven when the
blaze is in STEAMBOAT, four for Pera. &C. The
Waterman, in full, loud voice, calls out the
name OF the quarter where the fire is raging,
and, If in his quarter thumpS violently on the
doors Of the adjoining houses, and with good
reason, for before people in the vicinity are
fully awake the flames are on them. The
rapidity with which 400 or 500 dwellings
are swept away cannot be conceived by
any one who has not actually seen what rickety
sun-dried wooden houses they are. Hungarian
gentleman, Count Szechery, of much experience,
has organized fire brigade, which does WON
derS, when one considers that their only way to
fight the flames are little hand-pumps. The
streets are too narrow and winding to permit
steam pumps to circulate There are also the
famous ''toolumbadjees," or volunteer f1remen,
whose main object seems to be fun and plumber.
Their reputation is such that of them and the
fire the latter Is less dreaded of the two The
SZenchery Brigade is confined, unfortunately to
few quarters. Several Of the embassies have a
private force Of their own.-(C0r. Fhil0. Tele-
