The Turkish Pasha.

The ancient Turkish title equivalent
to that of the modern pasha was "beg-
ler-berg," a compound word signify
ing "chief of Chiefs" which was form
erly the title of governors general of
Turkish provinces. They stood next
in rank to the vizier, and their ex-
ternal distinctions are three ensigns,
consisting of slaves trimmed with the
tail of horse. Originally the title of
pasha was bestowed on princes of the
blood. There are three grades, each
distinguished by number of horse
tails waving from lance. the distinc-
tive bacge of a pasha. Three horse
tails are allotted to the highest digni-
taries, who also have the title of vizier;
the pashas of two tails are generally
governors of the more important
provinces, and the lowest rank of one
tail is filled by minor provincial gov.
ernors. The word is also spelled pacha,
and is said to be derived from the Per-
sian words pa, first, or support, and
shaiG, ruler.-ECery Other Saturday.

Blowing Ships to Pieces.

The Pittsburgh Dispatch publishes the
following from special correspond
ent, who is naval officer on the
United States ship Enterprise:
"PAGODA ANCHORAGE, MIN RIVER,
China, Aug. 24.-Although the cable
has probably informed you before this
of the naval battle between the French
and Chinese forces at this place yester-
day, description of the fight of an
eyewitness may be of interest to your
readers. l will give you an idea of
the work that the United States squad.
ron, under the cOmmand of Rear Ad-
miral John Lee Davis, has been doing,
and how the different vessels are sta
toned to protect American interests.
''In the early part of July last the
flagship Trenton, the Juniata, and the
Enterprise sailed from Nagasaki,
Japan, for Yokohama. On reaching
that place, on July q, we heard that
fresh trouble had broken out between
the French and Chinese, and that
lighting might begin at any time.
This vessel was almost Immediately
ordered to Shanghai, and after run
of five days through the inland sea of
Japan and straits of SimonOski we
reached the straights of the Whampoa
river.
1--WE found the Chinese Notifications
full of men anu everything in readi-
ness for battle. There were also sew
eral Chinese memo war at the mouth
of the river. The French had three
vessels stationed near the Notifications,
and every day we expected the fight
ing to commence. Our ship proceeded
up the river as soon as the water on
the bar permitted, and on our arrival
at Shanghai we found everything in
readiness to protect the foreigners
The cap ain of the Italian man of-war
Christoforo Colombo, being the senior
officer present, had command of the
united forces, and landing parties
were formed on each man-of-war to
land with small arms and Gatling guns
to keep back the mob in case of
trouble.
1.-The great trouble with the Chinese
is that they can not or will not dis
criininate between foreigners. In a
Chinaman's eyes anyone that is white
is n foreign devil an in case of
trouble between France and China the
mob would try and revenge themselves
on all foreigners. Shortly after our
arrival at Shanghai the Trenton ar
rived, and in day or two Admiral
Davis transferred his flag from the
Trenton to this vessel, and we steamed
down TO our present anchorage, which
is twelve miles from the city of Foo
Chow. 1t is impossible for vessels
drawing more than eight or nine feet
to get up to the city. Consequently
most OF the shipping is done from
Pagoda anchorage: The United States
