THE DEATH OF ABDUL Azrz.

Notwithstanding the condemnation of
Midhat Pasha and company for the muir
der of Abdul Aziz, it appears to be by no
means demonstrated fact that be was
murdered. An English physician residing
at Constantinople, DR.. Dickson, has re-
Gently written letter to the London
Standard in which he gives "a minute ac-
count of the examination which he made
of the body of the dead Sultan, at the in
vitation and request of the Turkish Gov
eminent. He states in the most positive
manner that with the exception of the two
wounds in the arms made by the scissors,
there were no marks whatever about the
body to indicate murder. He says
" There was no lividity of the lips to indi-
"cate death from suffocation no signs of
pressure upon the throat, arms or legs,
:" to lead to the belief that a struggle had
" taken place. The features of his Majesty
"were placid, and resembled those of
"person who had expired TRANQUILITY"
LIMO ohohChiSAO 10 III OOAplCtc dCCOIQdHCS
with that which was officially made
by nineteen physicians, nearly all
Europeans, who examined the body
at the same time. As to the
recent charge of murder, it has
had no investigation deserving the name.
The evidence of couple of grooms was
all that was advanced, and they were not
cross-examined by counsel for the defense.
So far as trustworthy testimony goes, all
that exists is to the effect that the death
of Abdul Aziz was suicide, and not
murder; nor can the conviction of the
Pashas at all weaken the force of this
testimony. The presumption is that the
Turkish Government had determined to
disgrace Midhat Pasha and his followers
and friends, and that this charge of muir
der was trumped up because it seemed to
offer the only decent pretext available for
making sweeping removal of the OBJ
noxious faction. 1t viii be interesting to
those who live so long to see if, ten or
twenty years hence, the medical or the
Turkish theory Of the death of Abdul
Aziz has gained the upper hand and been
adopted into history.

THE PRESIDENTS CONDITION.

The Presidents condition does not APP
pear to be satisfactory, though the medical
bulletins continue to be confident in tone.
Yesterday the persistence of febrile symp-
toms determined the doctors to make an
other incision, some fear having been
entertained that another pus cavity had
formed. 1t was subsequently given out
chat the granulation of the wound had
partly closed the old passage, and so caused
some of the pus to be retained in the body,
with the alarming results above indicated.
The new incision does not appear to have
laid open fresh pus cavity, but the physi-
clans say that the condition of the Presi-
dent is at least no worse than before the
operation, for that is the strict interpre-
tation of their rather ambiguous phraseol-
ology. But it is to be observed that the
patient does not seem to gain strength !;
for although the doctors keep on saying
that he is stronger, the fact remains that
he Is unable to lift his head or to turn him
self in bed, and therefore it is plain
that he is really exceedingly weak.
1t is now five weeks since he was
shot, and the progress made towards re.
covery appears almost imperceptible. We
think it extremely doubtful whether he is
any better than he was three weeks ago.
The hot weather of course is terribly
against him, but it is difficult to under.
stand why the doctors should think it i'm
possible to move him. II he could be got
down to the Potomac and put on board a
steamer it seems possible to take as much
care of him as at the White House, and he
would then be able to get ont of the pesti.
lent atmosphere of Washington and obtain
some sea-air. If he is too feeble to be re-
moved, then it is evident that his progress
has been exaggerated by the DOCTORS In
short, for patient who, according to the
bulletins, has been getting better almost
every day steadily, Is is surprising how
very little better President Garfield has

Signs OF uNEAsINEss.


There is talk here and there, and more
and more, of an approaching financial
crisis, and though the bulls are always
ready to stigmatize such talk as merely
part of bear movement, it is an indubita-
BILE fact that there exist solid reasons for
serious apprehension. Speculation has
been very wild for some time. Enormous
sums have been invested in enterprises
which are seen already to be OF more than
doubtful stability. There may be no dan
ger of short crops, but there is great dan
ger of shortages in other quarters. The
railroad mania has been the real focus of
mad speculation, and it is there that the
first symptoms of weakness will appear
The country has been gridironed with i'm
possible railroads, each more ambitious
than its neighbors. The stock of these
roads has been foated by the most auda-
cious and sometimes discreditable resorts,
and more than the usual amount Of plausible
misrepresentation have been made concern
ing them, particularly in Europe. American
investments have been popular there OF late,
and American adventurers have not been
slow to take advantage of the fact. The
railroads which have been projected to cross
the continent and tap the Pacific Coast
embrace some OF the most himsy and
shaky of all these recent speculations. In
some cases small lengths of existing road,
having no terminal connections at either
end, and practically going nowhere, have
been boldly heralded as parts of new
transcontinental lines, and their stock has
been suddenly watered enormously on the
strength of these announcements. Other
through" routes have been invented
by patching together ION paper)- discon-
nected fragments of lines which could not
be joined. In yet other cases there has
been no tangible foundation of any kind,
but the whole project has been embraced
in the glowing prospectuses. There are at
least dozen such sham enterprises now on
the market, and they have undoubtedly
gathered in great deal of capital. They
are all SO frail that very little pressure
will overthrow them, and when the money
market tightens the squeeze is sure to
be felt by them first and most. And it
must be remembered that though at the
beginning of a panic it is often only the
weak and unstable houses which go, pres.
emily the increasing apprehension involves
the sounder firms, and they, too, are en-
gulphed. 1t is not at present mere bear
influence which affects to see danger in
the immediate future. The storm signals
have in fact been hoisted for some time,
and they have been duly needed by pru.
dent and far.sighted men, There is no
wisdom in pretending that everything
looks bright when the black clouds are
already gathering on the horizon. To-day
all the indications justify the conclusion
that financial stringency, if not panic,
is approaching, and that it will fall most
heavily upon wildcat railroad enterprises,
and quite probably make clean sweep Of
the majority of them.

a mob took Thomas Noakes out of Jail
at oroville, and hanged him. Noakes had
murdered an inoffensive cripple by beating
him, and it was undoubtedly very aggra-
waited and brutal crime. But what reason
had the men who murdered Noakes to
suppose that the law would not punish
him Every man who joined in that law

Noakes. Do they realize this. We are
not living here on the frontier beyond the

fornia. The brutality of crime does not
afford such an excuse. Those who resort
to lynching to satisfy sentiment of in
dignation may think that they are justified,
but they are wrong. No authority to take
life is vested in the citizens. individually
or collectively, save in self-defense or
under the direct and explicit sane
ton of the law. In this case, as
In all lynchings, one murder has been
avenged by another. a lynching is not an
execution it is murder. There is no
sanctifying or exculpatery influence about
it. 1t is a mere reckless mob proceeding,
and it is one which reflects the deepest dis
credit upon its participants. And we may
add that next TO the actual murderers in
guilt and responsibility are those public
journals which excuse or approve such out
RACES, no matter under what fiimsy pretext.
There is but one way to punish crime in a
civilized community, and that is through
the constituted machinery. All evasions
Of that machinery but serve to promote
lawlessness, whether they are committed

taken idea of furthering the ends OF Justice

REMEDIES FOR TooTHAcHE. A few
drops of chloroform On cottonwood and in
serted into the hollow of decayed, aching
tooth often gives permanent relief; but
sometimes when the an@sthetic effect has
passed away, the pain is aggravated, the
application having irritated the inaamed
pulp. A better plan is to fold over
the hollow tooth piece of lint moist
eued with chloroform, SO that the vapor
only comes in contact with the
interior of the tooth. The preparation
sold as camphorated chloroform often
proves useful. A mixture of equal parts of
chloroform and laudanum, or of chlorc.
form and creosote, constitutes an excellent
application.
