est broker, and facilitate, instead of pre-
venting the work of dismemberment.
Such are in q few words the views of
those VINO take a calm, dispaSsionate
view OF the situation, and who project
upon the future the light of past expert
ence. or such men, however, the Turk
ish official world contain only II very
small number Among the great ma
lorlty OF the Sultan's counselurS very
dltlerent views are entertained. In lis
ulng to those whose opmiOns at pres
ent md favor in high places, one might
imagine that the triple alliance has been
resuscitated for Turkeys special benefit.
Prince Bismarck, il is said, is forming
coalition against England, and one OF
the first acts of the coalition will be TO
compel England to abandon Egypt.
Hitherto the sympathy of the German
chancellor for Turkey has been rather
TOO platonic, but now IL will take more
practical form by restoring the Egyp-
tIans, legitimate sovereign. 70 tacili-
late TINS desirable object, Turkey, it is
added, must make rapproachement
| Win Germany's new ally, Russia, and
| steps have already been taken for this
| purpose. The cabinet of ST. Peters
burgh has shown itself quite
disposed to respond to the
| porte's advances, and | have rea.
son to believe that a public conservation
OF the rapproachement will shortly be
given by a solemn exchange of decora.
tons between the car and sultan. The
latter will probably be invested with tho
Russian order of 81. Andrew and the
ear with the Turkish order of lmtiaz
aud it is expected that in both cases the
ceremony Of investture will be per
formed 10y special mission with unusua
pomp. This event, if it really take
, place, will have certain significance
because no sultan has ever received
, Russian decoration, and no Mussulman
T SO far as am aware, has over worn TIN

9 out further the policy thus indicated tn
porte should seek to effect, likewise
, rapprochement with the cabinet of vi
emma, and this object could be easily al
tanned by making certain concession
! in the questions of the railway iun(
2 tions and of the commercial treaty. A
b yet, however, there are no premonitor
l symptoms Of disposition to make an
= such concessions. On thecontrary. In
L. attitude Of the porte in both question
g is not for tho moment by any NEAR

Rather MYSTERIOUS

Last night, about 80 o'clock, as Bob
Land, driver of hack No. 8, of Atwater
& Hodges, was returning from trip to
the fair grounds by way of Bryan street
he was halted near Meisterhan's pavil-
ion by a man in Il buggy, who called to
him in determined tone, "Driyer, put
out your lights" "What?" asked the
astonished driver. "Put out your lights,
d-n you" "l'n put out your light"
said Land, who drew a pistol. AT this
| iuncture, the man in the buggy hit
his horse-a bay animal-a hard lick and
drove off out the street, at q lively rate
of speed. Land did not like the loca-
ton, and started Off for down town
ut lively irot. Io had not
gone two blocks, however, when wo
man called, "driver, stop"
He halted, and woman of some
twenty summers, dressed in a black
silk dress, black hat, with feather {,
match, and a parasol Of like color, en-
tered the hack holding a handkerchief
10 her face.
"Taie me to the corner of Liv,

what she owed him and paid him. Lane
asked what was the matter, and sh

ried away in the direction of the Sal

Tho soft and delicious Texas autumn

markers have been advanced in the

of the doomed foliage and admonishcs
that another year viii soon sink into the

the gentle melancholy that makes the
coming of diSsolving Seasons, there Is a
quiet pleasure in autumnal life that no
Other quarter of the year possesses. The

the green bowers aud verdant shades

the toilet was complete. The most anus
ing part of the performance was the fact
that the TWO women who accompanied
the party did not have looking glasses,
nor did they have any occasion for
them. Their hair was brushed back,
without ornament, and their ugly faces
were free from paint The men we're
