The suitan Against Turkish Brigandagc.
IBy Anglo American cable to the Dispatch.]

CoNsrANTrNoPLE. September At is
stated upon good authority, that the dis
was due 70 the Sultan's discomfort at the
spread OF brigandaee in Turkey, the re-
cent outrages upon foreigners committed
by Turkish brigands, and the demand for
indemnity for such outrages brought by
the German and French Ambassadors,
representing the Powers whose subjects
have suffered by this lawlessness.. The
Sultan, it appears, complained of the in
efficient measures taken by the Ministry to
suppress brigandage. and it is understood
that an energetic campaign will be opened
Immediately against brigands.

fCorrespondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.l
WELDON, N. c., September A Farm
ers' Alliance picnic at Quankey to-day
was we'll attended. They had the usual
quantity Of good things to satisfy the inner
man and the orators of the day enlighten-
ed their brethren on the sub-Ireasury bill
and the great need of cheaper money and
more money. The farmers Of this county,
however, are true and tried Democrats,
and there were few, IL any, expressions ad-
vocating third party.
MISTAKE.
In nv humble way am thoroughly with
the farmers in thei- laudable efforts to
better their condition, but they make
serious mistake when they look to the
National Government for help. Only o
persistent and determined effort to speed
the plow," plant less cotton. and turn
their attention to grain, fruit, and vegeta-
bles will ever better the condition OF the
farmers of this section.
NOT THE REVEREND.
The death Of Mr.. William Grant, Of
Northampton county,a q short time since was
mentioned in the DIspATcH. / notice that
your neighbor the Richmond Christian Ad-
rocate comes out with beautiful and
touching obituary notice Of the death Of
Rer. William Grant, and pictures him ut
Rev. William Grant ls in the best of health,

particulars regarding the proposed exhibit
