Portugal Expects the Friendly
Powers to Intervene.
LONDON, January 1S.-The Portuguese
Government anticipates favorable reply
to its note to the powers asking their in
tervention in the dispute between Portu-
gal and Great Britain concerning territory
in Africa.
POPULAR INDIGNATION CONTINUES.
LONDON, January 18.-A dispatch
from Lisbon today states that crowds of
people assembled in the streets last night
and shouted "Vive la Portugal' and
Down with England" Similar scenes
were enacted in the principal towns
throughout the kingdom. A Vigilance
Committee has been formed in Lisbon
for the purpose of denouncing the re.
ceivers of English goods. French finan-
ciers have declined to negotiate loan
for Portugal.

II is safe 10 predict that Farmer
Wlnans Will be the nominee for Gov
ernor by the Democratic convention
today. His name is on every dele
gates lip and his praises are sung
throughout the whole range OF the
political gamut. He IS farmer, he is
a Granger, he is Patron. and
everything agricultural goes with the
Democracy-until after election. Still
he IS not farmer enough TO hurt him,
he IS not Granger enough to spoil him,
and he is not Patron enough TO be
ignorant of how a Democratic cam
paign should be run.
Frank Dean is a bright young fellow,
and may get complimentary vote,
but the chances are that be will deem
his ante-convention notoriety enough
to satisfy his present ambition, and
that he will magnanimously allow the
nomination to go TO the agricultural
patriarch unanimously by acclamation.

So far the gathering of the Demo-
cratic faithful has all the hilarity and
enjoyableness of well conducted
funeral. few yards of Grape, by way
of credentials, would add TO the i'm
pressiveness OF the occasion. The SOL
emn faces, the long-drawn sighs and
the perfunctory air of duties done are
already present, in unmistaksble vivid
ness. To counteract the ponderous
solemnity of the occasion, the greater
part of the delegates had to take in the
minstrel show at Powers Opera House
last night. BY breaking up the sol
emnity in this way and getting a little
relief, they hope TO be able to preserve a
proper cast Of countenanee until the
funereal work is done.

PROPHECY AND FULFILLMENr.

In reference to Speaker Reeds
chances of reelection, the editor of
the Democrat wrote: "Now he only
claims majority of q thousand.
The man is demoIalized." Then the
editor sought his virtuous couch and
peacefully slumbered, IN the conscious
ness of having done his duty to his
party, By working in the last possible
bluff before election.
Soon the telegraphic instruments
began to tick the news from Maine.
With sorrowing heart, but truthful
pencil, the telegraph editor wrote;
''The ruler Of the House reelected by
double his former vote"

Greek and Armenian. Marriages.

ATHENS, June 25.-Greek girls usually
marry when sixteen or seventeen if they
have good dowry, not otherwise, unless
they happen TO be unusually beautiful,
and even then they are looked down on
by the condescending bridegrooms and
their families, who DO not allow them to
forget that they were portionless. When
a Greek girl is Of marriageable age
her brother, or cousin or father if she
has no brother, goes to his closest friend
and says: II have little sister TO mar
~. Her dover will be so much in money
or jewels"
The other accepts if the sum is high
enough, but does not hesitate TO higgle
over the smallest matters like a pirate
The dowry must be OF the most tangible
sort. When this is settled the bride
groom prospective is taken to see the
girl and they are formally betrothed
The dowry ispaid TO him the day Of the
wedding ceremony, and his female rela-
tives count over every article of her very
under linen to mako sure that it is all
there. The Greek girls have to marry the
man chosen for them unquestioningly.
l knew a beautiful young Greek girl
who was in school yet. Her father sent
an old man to the school to see her. and
she was sent for to the parlor, where
she made her most profound bow, talked
a few words in French and English with
him and played her ''star" piece on the
piano, and thought she was showing off
for the benefit of the school. when to
her dismay she discovered that she waP
to marry him. She had so small a dowr
that no young man would take her, ar
so she was given to this horrible ole
man-for horrible he was. / knew her
year after her marriage, which was
one long torture.
Poor girls have hard time to find
husbands, and sometimes their families
viii bind themselves TO support bride
and groom and any possible increase for
a certain term Of years in place Of a
dowry, and the contract is strictly en-
forced. This is why girl babies are so
coolly welcomedsn Europe.
Greek wives are more like slaves 10
their husbands than Turkish ones. and
in case Of death OF divorce the dowry she
brings Is not restored 70 her, but she
must take her chances with the other
heirs. They are under the control q
their brothers OF sons. even If widowed
and it is rare that they are allowed The
control OF their own money. Their broth
ers, fathers or husbands may test then,
and in fact make their very lives bur
dens. though I think they usually treat
them mildly.
Armenian ziTls are usually very pretty
but inane, and their parents begin 70
save their dOvTy a. soon as they are
born. and this II handed over % the
bridegroom the dav before the Wedding.
80 that the impecuni0us bridegroom ma =
buy handsome present. for bis bride.
