Arabian ana Syrian Independence

From the beginning of the present year
various signs and portents in Arabia, Meso-
potamia, and Syria have foretold coming
events involving tho utmost peril to the Sui
tan's rulc in those outlying provinces of his
Empire. They are regions of the greatest
historical interest, and nothing which con-
Germs their present of future fortunes can he
indifferent to the general reader Several
months ago the Grand Sheriff of Mecca the
descendant of the Prophet and religious head
of Islam, was assassinated within the precincts
OF the holy Kaaba, and it was whispered that
the cause Of his death was not unconnected
with n projected movement for Arabian indie
pendence under his auspices. His successor
a man of above eighty years OF age, was
chosen by the Sultan with view To main,
tanning his own rights of su1erainty over Tia,
Holy Places hut it now appears that the new
Sheriff, like his murdered predecessor, is en-
gagged in an intrigue for Withdrawing those
regions from the rule OF the descendant ol
Gilman. The formidable rebellion, not yet
suppressed, which broke out in May in Bag
dad and Bussorah was probably part of tn,
general scheme, and IT is suspected that tho
recent removal OF the celebrated Midhal
Pasha from the pachalik of Damascus was
caused by his connivanco with the plans OF
tho Sheriff of Mecca. But the most irimid
able OF all these movements il the now UNI
deniable invasion of the Syrian frontier 10y
Mohammed ibn Rasl,id, the Sultan of Jebe
Shammar, in North Arabia, who openly as
pires to restore the Wahabte Empire o
Nejd, and is regarded by good authorities al
the coming man" in Arabia. His recent
successes in the liauran augur well for the
triumph of his cause, and the sympathies %
Christendom generally will attend him.

a Richard III.

On one occasion was acting the principal
character in an equestrian adaptation OF
" Richard Ill., in which every arrangement
had been made with the view to grand
striking display at the close of the piece, I'M
mediately after the encounter between
Richard and the Earl of Richmond, in which
the monarch is killed. About forty horses
and Il body of supernumeraries representing
the rival armies are masscd within the ring,
forming an imposing tablcau. The dead
King being then thrown across the horse, the
procession winds slowly out. Tho fight COM
menced My fierce and relentless oppo-
nent Richmond was represented by Miss Ada
Jacobs-once famous as Mazeppa-who, after
n long and terrible passage of arms, thrust
her cruel blade between my left arm and my
side, and fell to the ground as dead AZ
Julius Caesar. My eyes were closed, but
heard the tramp of the horses hoois as they
entered the ring, some of them coming UNI
pleasantly close To my head. | was wishing
that they would not come quito so near,
when suddenly foot came down firmly upon
my chest. struggled over and sprang up
|, the dead monarch and, in doing so, well
nigh upset my opponent Richmond, who, ia
add an unrehearsed feature to our tablcau
vivant, had set hor foot upon tho breast OF
her fallen foe The reader may imagine the
burst of laughter which greeted this absurd
conclusion of highly tragic display, nor was
the merriment confined TO the audience, for
the performers joined most heartily in
it, though they knew that for 4
moment it had given mo n terrible fright
However, "Richard was himself again with
a vengeance, though at the wrong part of tn,
performance, and his humble representative
had proved anew the truth of the adage thai
