Assn the days passed by,
When valiant hearts mid battles roar

The bonnie flag that once was waved
For the Confederacy,
is not forgot, but proudly saved,
Enshrined In loyalty.
Each torn fold jewel bright
Caught from the battles fray,
Whilst memory twines its lustrous light
In honor of its day
Oh. bonnie flag, dear as the day,
Thy fame will ever last;
To brighten up, lovely and gay,
The story of the past!
II hath a charm of Potency.

Its cross-bars were the golden key,
The spell of holy thought.
Its nuttering folds raised ardent hopes,
When kissed by Southern breeze,
The fairest jewel in knightly heart,
The star Of chivalry,

Opposing honor, right;
Thy folds nations lovely flag,
Raised for to conquer might

And well that lessons shown;
For now is ruin from land to sea,
Since love OF right has flown.

LONDON, Jan. 26.-If certain Liberal
newspapers. which profess to be inspired
are expressing the genuine designs of the
Government. the Eastern question is
about 10 be revived in its most acute
form. The true meaning Of the recent
persistent Armenian agitation is now be-
coming disclosed in the bold assertions OF
these journals that the time is ripe for
the election of the Turks from the Eu-
ropean fold. Viewing the subject in this
light, the present anti-Turkish crusade
very clearly possesses a greater principal
than was attached to the Bulgarian afro
cities, which yielded so much political
capital 10 Mr.. Gladstone nearly twenty
years ago. The outcome of that period
was fomented by the Liberals mainly
with the object of embarrassing the gov
eminent Of the Earl of Beaconsfeld, ana
the coming movement Is undoubtedly as
ISOLATED with a policy contemplating an
Anglo Russian entente. At any rate, il
appears TO be directed towards preparing
the public mind for some decided il not

spondent of the same paper writes. upon
what he asserts is unquestionable author
ity that the Sultan Is aware or the fact
that European statesmen are discussing
the question as to the manner in which
the territory of the Porte in Europe IN
GLIDING Constantnople, is TO be PARTITION
ed among the powers, together with the
oft-repeated question whether Austria
shall be allowed TO come to Saionica.
AN UPRISING OF CHRISTIANS.
He is also aware, according to this
authority, that there Is revival of the
questions as TO how much OF Macedonia
and Thrace shall be given 10 Bulgaria,
what proportion OF Albania Is TO 80 TO
Servia, and what part shall fan into
the possession OF Greece. These are old
questions, and doubtless the Sultan so
regards them; but, all the same, he is
compelled TO be alert, even when a
chestnut" is sprung on him. for he can
never tell whether or not II Is loaded.
According to the report, the signal for
the change is 10 be given in Macedonia
by an uprising of the Christians there.
The inhabitants of rnis faith there are
IN a majority In that country, and be-
sides, they have friends close at hand
who are ready TO take Their side in any
contingency. Ii Is assumed by the Speak
er that the powers will not use force TO
prevent Bulgaria Greece and Servia from
taking part In a revolution in Macedonia,
and these propositions, put into the form
of threats, may be partly aimed at the
Sultan in order TO coerce him into assent
TO an Anglo-Russian policy In Armenia.
Whether there is any good ground for
this action on the assumption that there
has been a wanton and wholesale slaugh-
ter of Christians in that province 1t can
not be as yet definitely learned.
The reports from that region are still
as conflicting as ever, and the means OF
obtaining information that can be relied

Definite and reliable reports in financial
circles are TO the effect that agents from
Washington are sounding the leading Lon
don bankers regarding a new American
loan. The Statist says that negotiations
have not yet actually begun, but it is re-
garded as probable that President Cleve-
land will find that his Government Will be
required to pay more than per cent,
and that as the prospects OF continuous
borrowing on the part OF the Washington
Government presents itself, some are al
most sure TO try TO prevent the bonds
from being sold to American bankers al
most Immediately. A European loan
says the Statist. is certainly of greater
benefit 10 the American Government than
borrowing at home. But nothing. ii con-
tinues. can avail without a contraction OF
the currency.

A correspondent of the Central News at

General Nodzu. in command OF the

dispatch that upon the night OF the I'D,
expecting TO be reattacked by the Chinese
armies at Laoyang. he arranged his de-
fence in such manner as to draw the
army within 600 meteres of his battle line.
His ruse proved successful, and the Fifth
Infantry Brigade. with three batteries.
suddenly attacked the enemies right
flank. The surprise was complete, and
the Chinese forces were scattered In great
confusion. The reserve Japanese infantry
attacked the left flank of the retreating
Chinese. who were fleeing towards the
northeast Their panic increased as they
fed, and there were many prisoners cap
tured. From the statements of the pris-
oners il is learned that the Tartar Cen
eral, Chang Sung, was in command OF
the Chinese forces, and that their force
consisted OF l2,000 infantry.
