Massachusetts.

II is very evident from the tone OF the
Democratic AND Independent press OF Mas
sacbusetts that CLEVELAND is not only
gaining ground in the State, but that But
LER cannot hold his following. The Bos-
ton Herald, in reviewing the situation,
says: 1.-THE sober second thought OF those
who were naturally tempted TO follow
BUFFERS banner will take them back to
their allegiance" and adds:
They see that the contrary course would
inevitably lead to the disruption Of the
party with which they have been affiliated
and the triumph Of the Republicans. But
Ter might be paid for il, but they would be
left out in the cold. The Prohibitionists
are going 10 poll larger vote for their
ticket than ever before. They will get the
support OF many conscience Republicans
who cannot support Blaine, but are unable
to Overcomet beirpr prejudice against the Dem
ocratic party. Finally, we come TO the indie
pendent vote thrown frankly for Cleveland
and Hendricks. That il going to be large
larger than IL generally estimated.
Many such votes will be silently cast. We
hear Of none OF those who have opposed
Blame turning back to him.
chance for the Democrats and their allies to
carry Massachusetts. But il involves hon
est, faithful, and diligent work. II willnot
do to neglect a single point. The Republic
cans will strain every nerve. They will
have money In abundance, they have the
prestige Of possession, and party c0nsid-
erations have already stuffed the consciences
OF some OF their most eminent leaders.
We say to the Democrats aud their allies,
the Independents, that If they will go into
this canvass heartily, with determination
TO win, with confidence that they will win,
they can carry the State. II they do not do
tiff they do not make great effort to do
it-they will prove themselves unworthy of
success.
And we may add that everything goes to
show that the Democrats and their indie
pendent allies are working. Though the
Herald injunction and warning are timely,
we are not justified in inferring that there is
lack OF earnest aud organized effort on the
part Of the Democrats and Independents.
Any one who reads the kilograms
and letters TO the Boston papers
from the various towns throughout
the State will see that the Herdld'S Ian
guage is not in the nsture OF reflection
upon the manner in which the canvass Is
being conducted, but Is rather intended to
stimulate the people not to weary
OF well-doing. Another encouraging point
about the situation in Massachusetts,
Is that since the publication Of the last
batch OF MULLIGAS letters the Republican
press OF the State is on the defensive, and the
real issue OF the canvass is being brought
out in holder relief. The explanation OF
General HAwLEY no longer serves to explain
ana the defence Of Senator HoAR no longer
| serves 10 defend.

Correspondence New York Tribune.I
Constantinople Is VIGOROUSLY a city built
on ruins. Every time new house is
erected numbers OF ancient relics are
brought TO view. The trustees OF the
American Bible House In this city are
making an addition TO their fine building,
and have found regular maze OF ancient
foundations at from ten to twenty-five feet
below the surface OF the ground. Some OF
the old walls contain great bricks fourteen
inches square, as hard as stone, and each
stamped with name in Greek characters.
1t seems to be uncertain whether the name
en- the bricks Is that OF maker or that OF
the emperor. Some Of the bricks are marked
"Koctan," others "Konctans." Others
yet have besides name date which cor
responds to the year "j07 A. d." The
cement in which these bricks are laid il
hard as rock, and ii is difficult to get them
out unbroken; but specimens OF quite
number OF stamped bricks will be pre-
served at the Bible house for the inspection
Of those interested.

which extends under an adjoining street.
and OF which the yaulied roof is supported
by great monoithic columns which bear
the cross on their capitals. 1t is quite
probable that Christian church or monas-
terry once occupied this site, although not
single inscription has been found whereby
TO identify the structure. Under the foun-
dations OF this Christian edirice were found
fragments OF sculpture that date from
beathen times. A Corinthian capital and
some fragments OF cornices IN beautiful red
marble suggest that splendid building
stood here before the Christian church was
built. In one part Of the ground were
found several graves. Each one was COW
cred with tiles evidently made for the pur-
pose. The tiles were about sixteen inches
wide and thirty inches long. They were,
