Is so, show mo one imam who would not

he believes him. but unfortunately the

garding the sultanS character. IL Is he
lieved that his majesty yields only through
fear: hence some people always advise the
British ambassador To bully the sultan.
No greater mistake could ever hc commit

tleman who is Intimately connected with
his majesty how it was that French and
Russian diplomacy succeeded better than
British diplomacy, moro especially when
the English are known to be the best
friends of Turkey. He assured me that
somehow or other the French and the Rus
sian ambassadors manage to become pri-
waite friends Of his majesty. The sultan
hates official pressure OF whatever kind.
The French and the Russians get many
things done in the name of friendship
more than in the name Of their govern
-mcnts. His majesty is an extremely kind
hearted man, and when an appeal is made
to his friendship, or to his generosity. he
cannot resist IL.

THE WINTER BLASTS.
REV. Or. TALMAGE SHOWS HOW TO
WARM THE WORLD.

A Unique Text and Powerful Sermon.
The Effect of the Cold Warmth OF the
Church of God-Thc Worlds Fireplace.
WASHINGTON, March l5.-The freezing
blasts which have swept over the country
at the time we expected spring weather
make this sermon especially appropriate.
DIR. Talmage's text was Psalm cxlvii, Il,
who can stand before his cold?'
Tho almanac says that winter Is ended
and spring has come, but the winds, and
the trusts, and the thermometers, in some
places down In zero, deny 1t. The psalmlst
lived I'm a more genial climate than this,
and yet he must sometimes have been cut
by the sharp weather. In this chapter no
speaks OF the snow like wool. the frost like
ashes the hailsiOncs like marbles and de-
scribes the congcalment OF lowest temper
ature We have all studied the power of
tho heat. How few Of us have studied the
power OF the froStg who can stand he
