a STRANGE Sr0sN.

A arrange story comes from Con-
stantinople. A few nights ago, so
runs the version of the affair given in
a German paper, three rolhers, arm-
eel tu the teeth. broke into the house
of u Prussian living in Constantine
pie. Threatening 10 forthwith muir
der him If he Eesisted, they compell-
Pd the owner Ia submit To being
bound, and then demanded from him
hi, valuabies aud money. The Prus-
sian III once gave up his gold watch
and some { ofTurk ish money which
he had in his pockets; but iAis small
BOOTY did not satisfy tie robbers.
Again they threatened death, and
finally obliged the bound and helpless
man TO tell them where they would
tind the key 10 his business safe.
This safe happened TO be IN a room
on the third floor, at the top of the
house, and thIther the three robbers,
having obtained possession of the key,
FASTENED, leaving the owner hound,
and threatening to return and shoot
him If no called for assistance. But
IA they went upstairs his wife
who had been watching what was
taking place from another room, slip
ped quietly in and cut the bonds oil
hera husband. Arming themselves
with revolvers, the pair crept quietly
upstairs, came upon the robbers alb
sorbed in dividing among themselves
the contents ofsthe safe, and without
word shot down two OF them. The
third thyew down his arms and beg.
ged for mercy. Turning the tables
| upon him the Prussian hound hislatt
assailant fast, and leaving his wife I,
watch over him with loaded rovol
yer In her hand, hastened 10 the
nearest zaptieh station. There he
found the officer in charge absent
and on ihquiring for a sub-oilicer was
told that both of the latter were als'
away. Thereupon the Prussian ask
ed four of the men toacconlpany hin
to his house and take the bound bar
glag into custody. Arrived in TIN
/ room where the two laen had beei
shot the zaptiehs looked ut the tw
corpses, looked at the prisoner, ant
recognized in the former the tw
sub-oiilcers, and in the latter the Off
Ger Of their own guard.

TmE United STATES.

The newspapers OF England are
trying Ia keep up the courage of their
people 10y telling them that the pros
perily OF this country will be cf short
duration. The Times lately published
an article on The subject. and gave
the grounds for entertaining that
opinion, and they are plausable. Il
says:
In the fscal year ended June 90,
1878, she expnried % million BUSH
rs OF wheat and -four, in the next
year $50 million bushels, aud in the
current year she is expected to expert
lS5 million bushels.
In the event OF good harvests &C.
curing in Europe generally, % nliiI-
ion bushels will be more than will be
wanted from America in l8S0-8l,
and what she docs send will probably
command low price. Those who
are projecting railways into unopened
districts IN oriS.r 10 carry produce
which will then not be required are
likely io burn their fingers, aud nos
many losses viii be necessary ~
quench the speculative spirit lately 50
rampant.
BESIDES, when the United States
made up her accounts for the year
ended June 50, 1879, she found that
she had sold more thaa she had
bought, 10 the extent of e55, 900, ,Oe0,
and upon the cniendar year Is79 the
hslance was 500, ,Oo0 600 in Ler favor.
Recent adviees tell us that in Janua-
ry and February, 1850, her imports
have exceeded her exports at the rate
of e3,000,000 sterling month, c.
e36, COO, ,oo9 per annum and she
owes her prosperity not alone to good
Ierops, bat also to the fact that there
was Il market for them.
