ALTHOUGH there are more than one
hundred and fifty applicants for the
Spanish mission, with several counties
to hear from, it is more than possible
the appointment may go over the heads
of all these hungry watchers, and light
on some quiet citizen who has built no
castles in Spain, and never dreamed of
even walking Spanish.

The publication of private letter

persons of the true character of the pro-

Two MILLIONS of new electors are to

Mr.. SMALLEY's cable letter to the Sun
day New York Tribune puts the Anglo
Russian position very concisely and
clearly. 1t stat that the ameer wants
Zulficar Pass because through this defile
lies the road to Herat. Russia agreed to
abandon her claim, an impudent one at
best, in return for the cession of Penjdeh
Having got Penjdeh, Russia now tries to
repudiate the bargain in order to get Zul-
fear too. Russia says she never meant
to surrender tn" hills to the eastward of
the valley. But these hills. according to
Sir Peter Lumsden and Condie Stephen.
are essential to the military possession of
the pass, which is worthless without
them. England has pledged herself to the
ameer, who insists on the fulfllment of
the pledge. The Russian demand, Mr.
Smalley says, has two objects, first, to
ascertain whether Lord Salisbury is as
''squeezable' as Lord Granville was; and
second, to get rid of arbitration on the
Penjdeh incident. NJ. de Giers has al
ready intimated that he is ready to come
to terms about Zulfcar if Lord Sails
bury will drop arbitration. Lord Sails.
bury at present is disposed to convince
Russia that in his opinion England has
made concessions enough.

that Lord Salisbury has introduced in

THE WEALTH OF HISTORY THAT SURROUNDS

THE WEALTH OF HISTORY THAT SURROUNDS
MOUNT M'GREGoR.
Mount McGregor is not only rich in
natural attractions, says the Saratoga
Saratogian, but in the wealth of histor-
ical associations which cluster about it,
The whole range to which it belongs and
the valley it overlooks are intimately
connected with many events in the
French and Indian war and the war of
the revolution. The northernmost emi.
nence in the chain echoed the famous
summons of Ethan Allen to the com.
mandant of Fort Tconderoga to surren-
der I'm the name of the Great Jehovah
and the continental congress-" while its
southern slope bears the name immortal.
lied by the battle of Saratoga, which is
generally regarded as the decisive battle
of the revolution. He who stands ON the
top of Mount McGregor can see to the
north French mountain and the narrow
defile between IL and the palmerton
range. Up this defile Dicskau marched
his French column in 1855 and encount-
cred Col. Williams Fastening with his
band to the support of Fort Edward,
and here occurred the fight in which the
gallant Williams perished. A. tile farther
to the right and nearer to the bed of the
river may be seen the place where lived
tue ill fated Jane McCrea, the slopes of
the hill where she met her death, and the
spot where her remains lie buried. Still
further to the east, and to the right of
French mountain, is broader valley.
Through this Burgoyne, flushed with his
victories at Ticonderoga and Skeenesbo-
rough. poured his troops in the summer
of 1777 His course may be traced all
the way down to the battle field of Sara
toga. The smoke of that battle rolled up
from over the top of the gentle undula-
ton just beyond Sarat' ga lake. Baffled
and driven back to the mouth of Fish
creek, Burgoyne was finally forced to sur
render his army near where rises the
graceful monument plainly visible in the
southeast. During those memorable
days the Americans had signal station
on this very mountain top, and from here
was flashed to the top of the green dome
beyond the Hudson, called Williard's
mountain, intelligence of the first APP
pearance of Burgoyne's army as it
emerged into the valley of the Hudson.
All these great events naturally occur
to the mind of the observer, standing ON
Mount McGregor, MS his eye sweeps the
landscape spread out before him.

Things Tending to Make Married People
Happier.
1t is said that married people would
be happier if home trials were never
told to neighbors; if they kissed and
made up after every quarrel; if house,
hold expenses were proportioned to re-
ceipts; if they tried to be as agreeable
as in courtship days; If each would try
to be support and comfort to the
other; if each remembered the other
was human being and not an angel
II women were as kind to their huS:
bands as they were to their lovers; if
fuel and provisions were laid in during
the high tide of summer work; if both
parties remembered that they married
for worse as well as for better; if men
were as thoughtful for their wives as
they were for their sweethearts; if
there were fewer silks and velvet
street costumes, and more plain, tidy
house dresseS if there were fewer
''please, darlings" in public and more
common manners in private; If wives
and husbands would take some pleasure
as they go along and NOT degenerate
into mere toiling machines. Recrea-
ton is necessary to keep the heart in
its place, and to get along without it il
a big mistake. If men would remem-
