EisG Turkish Question.

LONDON, March 2G.-Lord Harrington. tho
liberia leader, speaking G. Padiham, Lancashire,
last hight, pointed out in what respects the
policy of the opposition if returned to power
would differ from the policy of the present gov
ernment. lie said they would not stake the
iuteres. or honor Of England on the main.e
nance OF the indepence aud integrity of an uu-
reformed Turkish government; they would not
treat The relations of tho Turkish government
with its Christian suljsc!s as q matter Of 10
ttrest only to Russia and Turkey; they would
not try to disturb the concert OF Europe if it
Wss upited as to what should be done; they
would DO all iu thtie power to promote that
copcert.
The lines. 10 leading editorial article this
morning, oomucntpg 90 the above, says -
LORD Harrington, 10 discussing the Eastern
policy OF the government, avoWs that his crit
cisms a,e designed not merely to disoredit the
ministry but to Indicate what would have been
bis policy 10 the past and iis tendency 10 the
future. It would be policy of c9erciog Tur-
key ct the cost if necessary Of war. Tne 40.
nouucement Of such policy seems to deprive
the opposition speakers Of all right to danounce
the government for undertaking distant aud
erdncuS enterprises"

Flo wers and Vines.
From the Sanitarian.

Flowers and vines add a refine
ment of their own in every home ;
and there is no gorgeous upholster-
ing, no rare draperies of velvet and
laces that eau equal them in the
adornment OF our apartments.
The young lady who has once &C.
quired taste for dressing her parlors
and windows with flowers, autumn
leaves, ferns and MOSES, will never
want for the upholsterer's art in thi S
direction, for she will far excel it. In
spring time and summer, instead of
curtains falling from gilded mould~
ings, she will have tasteful brackets
and ornamental flower pots. from
which hang clustering branches Of
tradescantia and moneyworth, with
tall, shapely tuchsias lift their flo very
heads from among bright-hued ger
aniums, artistically arranged ill beau
tiiul contrast with their graceful
bells, in perfect loveliness. On the
window sill Is or tables hard by, stand
pots of fragrant heliotropes, sweet
tea roses and other similar articles OF
virtu; and if there be room between,
hanging baskets with various kinds
Of oxalis and other Towering tendrils
enliven the whole with fragrance and
beauty. And, as summer advances,
dark-veined ivy leaves cntwine about
the walls and pictures, and anon, ar
tistically arranged autumn leaves,
fern and MOSES perpetuatc the scene
with variations adapted to all the sea-
sous.
