the newborn federation of America by finding
such man as Washington ready made to its
hand? Or take men of quite another stamp
from the Virginian deliverer. The course of our
history for the last 800 years has been largely
affected by the fact not only that we underwent
a foreign conquest, but that we underwent
foreign conquest of particular kind, such as
could be wrought only by a man of particular
kind. The course of our history for the last
300 years has been largely affected by the fact
that, when English freedom was in the great
est danger, England fell into the hands of ty-
rant whose special humor it was to carr on
his tyranny under the forms of law. English
history could not have been what it has been if
William the Conqueror and Henry VIII. had
been men other than what they were. One
bushes to put the two names together. Will
liam was great in himself and must have been
great in any time or place. Henry, a man not
without great gifts, but surely not great man,
was made important by circumstances in the
time and place in which he lived. But each
influenced the course of events by his personal
character. But they influenced events only in
the sense of guiding, Strengthening, and quick
euing some tendencies and keeping others back
for while. Neither of them, nor Washington
either, belong to that class of men who, for
good or for evil, turn the world upside down,
the great destrcyers and the great creators of
history,

Turkey and Greece.

LONDON, March 29.-The London correspon
dent of the Manchester Guardian says: There
is reason to believe the Cabinet on Monday
considered communication from Mr.. Goschen
Ambassador ito Turkey; also kilograms from
cy Of the position. 1t is highly probable the
Cabinet have determined to make one more
effort to maintain peace, and that final pro-
posal for an adequate session of territory to
Greece will be accompanied by pressure up
on the Porte which will be very difficult to re-
sist. The moment it is evident these efforts
are abortive. Greece, it is understood, will ad-
dress a circular to the Powers and declaration
to Turkey, that she must herself execute
the decision of the Berlin conference.
The Pail Mall Gazette says it is expected in
well-informed circles that war in the East will
be averted. Substantially the Powers believe
that the latest proposal of the Porte represents
the most that can be extracted from the Sultan
without war

The MoreY Letter.

WASHINGTON, March 29.-It is now expected
that legal proceedings will soon be instituted
against all the parties to the Morey letter for
gerry For some time past the law officers of
the government in New York city have been
exceedingly active in their efforts to discover
the connecting links which were necessary to
complete the various chains of evidence which
they have been gathering since the first ex-
posure of this forgery. 1t is now reported
here upon what appears to be excellent au-
thority that the guilty parties will soon find
themselves in the hands of the law. 1t is as
serted that several well known Democratic
politicians are criminally compromised in the
affair, and that it will even extend to the in
dictment of some of the members of the Ma
tional Democratic Committee.

filled. This brought on nausea at the stomach
and inability to retain food. The woman is
still alive, having eaten and drank nothing
since October. She is nourished by being
bathed in beef tea, milk, etc.. which acts by
ABSORPTION, the quantity absorbed being nearly
a quart per day from these baths. A bath Of

said to be totally paralyzed.

Charged with Attempting to Poison a
Whole Family.
LOWELL Mass, March 29.-Harlan P. Hale
of Waterford, VT, was arrested by Marshal
Noyes and Deputy Favor in this city this af-
ternoon, on suspicion of having attempted a
diabolical crime, the murder by poison of an
entire family. He had formerly paid atten-
ton to Miss Mary p. P. Sanborn, who lives
with her aged father in this city on Lee street.
She had discouraged his addresses. He is in
the habit of bringing car loads of country pro-
duce here, having storehouse on Suffolk
street, and so called on Mary quite often. Last
Saturday afternoon he went there, and stopped
to tea. 1t was noticed that the cocoa was very
bitter, and when tea was substituted for it the
same popularity was apparent Suspicion was
excited and none of it was Dunk. The tea
kettle was then examined and sediment was
found in it which druggist here on examine
ton pronounced strychnine. The substance
was sent to Boston today for analysis. Hale
will be arraigned in the police court to-mor-
row. If the horrible suspicious are verified,
Hale has been guilty Of an attempt to kill Miss
Sanborn, her father and little niece, for they
were all at the supper table.
