There is something pathetic in the expectancy OF

who shall lift them TO the manness that they
crave. The African Mehdi does not call himself
the great reormer OF the latter days. lie claims to
be only an Instructor Of the people. But his fol-
lowers begin to see in his power evidence that he Is
indeed the long-expected one. AS for the people Of

this man Is truly the great Delverer. They tell his

the time when the dark continent shall reveal her

Turkey, and perhaps the Pan-Islamic idea itself,
may be traced directly TO the influence OF this Afri.
can Arab. One of his disciples. the Shazili Shekh
Jafer, plain solemn man, with no nonsense about
HIM, Is favorite companion of the Sultan.
IL one may base any opinion upon the accounts

African Mehdi is certainly a remarkable man. His
influence upon pending questions in Egypt and
Tuns may yet bring him into prominence before

The Excise Commissioners sent n communication
containing estimate OF the amount The Depart
ment would require for the year ending April 30,
1883. 1t was SS3, 600. The Police Commissioners
sent a communication asking the Board TO transfer
n number of unexpended balances for various pur-
poses TO the appropriation Tor the repairs OF police
stations Tie Controller said that the
Police Commissioners now had uneX-
pended balances amounting to $4,000. They
could not this money without tho consent OF the
Board of Estimate and ApportOnment for any other
purpose than that for which it was set aside lie
had written to the Police Commissioners to turn
the money into the City Treasury, but they had
failed to do so. Pohce Commissioner Mason, who
was present, said that the amount mentioned was
very much needed for the Necessary repairs to pc Ice
stations. He hoped that the Board would authorize
the transfers. The Controller said that the
trouble WAS that the Police Commissioners kept
this larpe sum lylng idle i'll their possession when
IT should be III the City Treasury. Mayor Grace
agreed with the Controller that the moneys SHOULD
be placed III tho CITY Treasury before It's transfer
was asked for. Police Commissioner Matthews
stated that he knew of no law requiring the lex
pended ba ances 10 be paid INTO the Cay Treasury
Commissioners Mason said that If 1t were night 10 40
so and the request were made IN u proper manner
the Police Board would comply with The Control
ler's request. The discussion, which was rather
warm at times was ended by resolution that the
Corporation Counsel be requested to render an
opinion ON the question III dispute.
