MARRY OR JAIL.
One Of Arab Pasha's Soldiers Fol
lows a Virginia Girl and
compels Her to Choose
the Altar or the
Prison.

LYNCHBURG, Va. June 15.-A
month ago a Turk, called himself
Charles Costick, and claiming to have
been one of Arab Pasha's soldiers,
wandered into Campbell county. lie
was industrious and polite, and by
hard work had accumulated about
5000. He settled in this county be-
cause he fell in love at first sight with
Miss Annie Harris, the vivacious
daughter of small farmer. She ell
couraged his advances until she had
made him present her with $ll5 and
a silk dress, when she sent him a
notification that she had decided she
could not marry him. Miss Harris
then left the county on visit to some
friends, but her destination was con.
cealed from her angry Turkish lover
He finally traced her to Staunton
Having followed her to house in
that place, he told a policeman his
story, and at 8 o'clock last night she
was under arrest. She asked Costick
whether he would prefer to have his
money back or to marry her. She
then promised to marry him on con
dition he would withdaw the war
rant. He amended the proposition by
agreeing to withdraw the warrant il
she would first marry him. This she
agreed TO, and they were married by
q magistrate.

A Noble Colored Man.

A Washington correspondent, Il
Democrat and Southern man, pays
the following handsome tribute TO
the greatest man of his race:
The Hon. b. X. Bruce, late Regis
ter of the Treasury, has recovered his
health aud | am glad of ii. lie is one
of natures noblemen. | heard an
ancedole of him which endeared him
to my heart. When he was SEN
ator, his former MASTER one of those
naughty spirits who composed our
noblesse oblige, Southern planter
who felt himselvcs to be the peer of
We're de We're, came to Washington,
broken in heart and bankrupt in
purse. lie could only say, as not
uncongenial spirit said three centu-
ries before, after the unfortunate day
of Pavia: "All is lost, save honor"
lie tasted the very drcgs of bitterness
when he beheld his former slave a
Senator in Congress, that body
whose lustre had been so much
heightened by Southern statesmen
and Southern orators. Bruce went
to Secretary Sherman and asked for
a position in the Treasury for his
old master, who was Democrat.
The request was granted, and place
with salary Of $1,000 given to the
old Southcrner. Bruce took the APP
pointment and, placing it in The hand
of Mr.. Lamar, said: Garry this to
my old master and give it to him as
coming from you, and do not mention
my name in connection with the
matter, for his pride will not permit
him to accept such favor at my
hands, No knight who stood al
Arthur's round table, no palladir
who followed in the train of Charlie
magne. no hero of ancient or modern
story ever did an act of divinel
courtesy or of more refined delicacy

The Marquis Of Salisbury.

The brilliant man who succeeds
Mr.. Gladstone as Prime Minister of
the United Kingdom of Great Brit
ain and Ireland, was born at Hat
field, England, in the year 1880.
Like many other aristocrats of the
old country, he is blessed with a
wealth of names rivaling in number
if not in sonorous quality those of a
Spanish nobleman. Robert Arthur
Talbot Gascoigne Cecil is a son of
that Marquis of Salisbury who died
in 1868, aud whose honors and es-
tates he inherited. After receiving
a preparatory education at the great
public school Of EtOn, he became a
student ut Christchurch, Oxford,
where he was graduated. Subse-
quently he was elected Fellow of
another college in the same universi-
". From 1858 To 1868, lie was a
member Of the House OF Commons,
representing the borough Of Slam-
ford. Since his fathers death he
has sat in the House of Lords, and
has been leader of the Conservative
ranks in that august body since the
dccease of Earl of BcacOnsileld.
lie has been entrusted with digni-
fled offices several times before his
present elevation to the highest po-
sition which can be held by the sub
ject of Queen Victoria The first time
ia 1855, when he was appointed
Secretary Of State for India, in 1874,
when he assumed tho same office
the second time, aud in 1878, when
he became Secretary of Foreign Az
fairs. In 1876 he was sent as special
Elnbassador to Turkey and was col
league with the Earl Of BcacOmsiield,
in 1878. at the Congress OF Berlin
Since the spring of 1880, when the
Liberals were returned to power by
a great majority, he has been one of
the most active members of Her
Majesty's Opposition. In 1869 he
was elected Chancellor of the Uni
versity of Oxford in the place of
the Earl of Derby, then recently de-
ceased. The Marquis of Salisbury
was made Knight of the Garter
in 1878. lie is a brilliant writer rs
well as speaker. Ills sympathies
are aristocratic ; his views OH foreign
policy pregnant with national pride.

June 20th was celebrated as the 4Stll
anniversary of Victoria as Queen OF
the British Empire. Her reign exceeds,
with three exceptions, all the ruling
sovereigns of England. The three
exceptions are, Henry III, who reign
ed fifty-six years; Edward III, who
reigned fifty years, and George III,
whose occupancy of the English
throne extended through sixty years
surprising all other rulers. With the
exception of the Emperor of Germa-
NY, the King of the Netherlands and
the King of Denmark, the English
Queen is the Oldest reigning European
monarch. The career of this favored
Queen has been very remarkable
and prosperous one.

"Publioans and Sinners"

WASHINGTON, d. c., June l2.-
Gen. Logan is immensely delighted
with letter he received a few days
ago from a gentleman in Little Rock,
Ark. The writer, whose name is
True, began by saying that he has
two boys, aged respectively and Z
years. The younger is rampant re-
publican; the older is an equally
strong democrat, to which party his
father also belongs. One day last
month while the children were at
Sunday School, the superintendent
in the course of his remarks referred
to the scripural phrase "publicans
and sinners" Instantly the young.
er boy sprang to his feet and shouted
out: "Ilurrah for Black Jack Logan.
He's a publican and so am l." Mr..
True closes his letter by saying that
he is an officer of the city govern
ment and wonders if he will in the
future be classed as an offensive par
tisan." Gen. Logan says there are
few incidents in his public career
that afford him more pleasure than
the loyalty of his juvenile Arkansas
friend.

commands, many make their lives mlser-
able, trusting that the hereafter may be-
stow the happiness they have never
known on earth. How strange it is that
man should think he is best serving
God then, when he is making
himself miserable! How many in
Utah enter into marriage re-
lation that gives them neither honor nor
happiness on earth, whose best hope is
that it may give them salvation. And
what is salvation? Is it more than free
dom from sin and sorrow? And is not
sorrow the child of sin? Did not Mary
of Magdala obtain salvation when her
Saviour bade her to 60 forth and sin no
more. and she did as she was bid? Does
this marriage system always give joy to
the heart and peace to the soul? Is
Christianity the laying of burden upon
the heart, or a lifting of it from off the
heart? In Utah are seen young men
and young women entering this marriage
that all the world has said brings sorrow
and shame; and when they enter it,
their hearts are as brave, their prospects
as bright as those of that happy twain
whose portrait the artist painted, and the
same prophetic vision rises into view
when we look at them as the painter saw
when he painted his Prophetic Picture"

TROUBLED TORIES.

The Tories are again in much trouble,
trouble caused by their own success at
times when they would have preferred
that the Liberals had gone little further
into their sea of political discord where
the waters were deeper, and where
they would have become scattered.
They were getting into deep water
when the Tories began to jeer at
them, and, like sensible men, they
waded back to the shore and told their
advisers and critics to pilot the
way themselves. Having said what
should be and having pointed out vari-
Gus mistakes, the Tories could not very
well refuse to lead the nation through the
Red Sea of their troubles, but now they
are in the sea, they find that its waters
no not part to let them pass to the prom
ised land beyond. The Times still con-
tinues to condemn the late Ministry for
its conduct in resigning, as it plainly sees
that the Tories are hemmed in on all
sides with difficulties; while the TeIe-
graph says that the Marquis of
Salisbury will have the sympathy
of the country, and warns Mr.. Cham
berlain and Sir Charles Dixie not
to make any mistakes by obstructing the
elections in the Provinces. The Tele
graphs warning is gratuitious to the
above gentlemen, as that paper is Tory
of the Tories, and utters its warning
more as threat than anything else. 1t
seems that the Conservatives are so tim
orous in their undertaking to conduct the
Government, that they are requiring
guarantees of their opponents that they
will not modest the new Cabinet. 1t is
most excellent idea to get an opponent to
make promise that he will not criticise
the actions OF those who brought about
his downfall. Another thing that
troubles the Tories is the fact
that they do not know what
line of policy Gladstone will pursue,
whether he will retire altogether from
politics, or still remain the leader OF his
party, and their bitterest and most active
opponent At the present time Gladstone
seems to be buried beneath the ruins of
his own party, but it is only seemingly
so. He is like the Scotch lad, to whose
memory tablet is placed in a certain
street in Edinburgh. The house in which
the lad and his parents lived fell one
night, and buried in its ruins all the in
mates. 1t took the workmen several
days to clear away the debris, never once
hoping to save any life; but on the third
day, as the evening approached, they
thought they heard faint cry, and so
redoubled their efforts to remove the
debris. In the place where the ruins had
fallen thickest they heard the voice of the
lad cry out: "Heave ava, men, I'm no
dead yet" Nor was he, and he came out
from under the ruins uninjured, and as
well as when he was buried beneath them.
So it is with Gladstone, he's "no dead
vet"
