Identifying himself with their hetce
opposition to Christian invasion, or at
all events by not openly siding with
it. Certain it is that sovereign
never was placed in q more
desperate position; and no one
can judge Of lis acts fairly who does
not take into account all the difficult
ties by which he is surrounded.
Indeed, it is probable that no adequate
estimate can be formed of them by any
European. Only those more init
mately acquainted with the passions
and influences which agitate Islam can
enter the feelings which must at this
crisis be swaying the counsels at
Yildiz Kiosk. At no former period Of
his reign, not even when the Russian
armies were at San S%tefano, was his
throne in greater danger than at this
juncture; and the fate of many
European nations has becomeso closely
interwoVen with that Of the Ottoman
Empire that statesmen who, either
from legerete de ceur or ignorance,
have contributed by their policy to
precipisate this crisis, may well tremble
at the consequences which it is likely
to involve alike upon Christendom
and Islam.

HONESTY.

Jim Webster is II of the most

he is peculiar. Not long since he

not more than eight pounds. He
fixed his scales to cheat poor cnilud
folks what bain't got no sense"
The white neighbor took the pack
age, and after weighing it carefully
on his scales, said:
"You are mistaken, Jim. he has
given you a pound and a half too
much. There are eleven and a halt
pounds in the package instead of
ten"
eyer don't say so, boss. | was

cheated you, l suppose you will do
what is tight"

make any such sacrifices as dat.
