Case of Missionaries Knapp and Cole.

AS result Of protest OF Mr.. ]. w.
Riddle who, in the absence Of Minister
Terrill, is Charge Affaires OF the United
States Legation at Constantinople, the
action OF the Turkish Governor, observ-
ing the immediate departure of Mission
aries Knapp and Cole from Btis to Con-
stantinople, to stand trial Tor exciting
instruction, is revoked. In the case OF
Mr.. Cole, he is allowed to engage in mis-
sionary work and act as he peases. At
later date, when the travelling is better,
Mr.. Knapp may gs to Constantinople to
answer the charges made against him.
The Porte is anxious, in some way, to
get rid of the missionaries. If any indis-
cretions on their part can be proved, no
pains will be spared to make it appear
that some Of the blame, Tor provoking
the massacres, lies at their door, as an
excuse Tor banishing them from he coun-
try. They will need the vigilant and Wig
orous protection Of our government to
ensure their safety and freedom still to
prosecute their missionary work.-[Vt.

and wrote underneath "Ancora i'm
paro"-I am stillearning. Later on
near the end Of life, and he died at
the great age of ninety, high dig
nitary Of the church, one winters
day, from his carriage saw the great
artist Flooding on foot through the
snow to the Colosseum at Rome.
In his surprise the prelate asked,
And where are you going sir, in
such storm ?" ITO school, to try
to learn something" was Angeles
resolute reply. The undaunted
spirit Of this tireless worker, the
fierce mastery of himself and the I'M
ialtering purpose of his life are so
wrought into the texture of these
tales that there can be little danger
that they will ever fall away from
the memory of men. They contain
an invaluable lesson in high and diff
ficuit art of self conquest. These
little stories of great men, think of
hem as we will, do merit repetition,
and they do add stimulus, though
,ver so slight, to the serious work of
life of very many people. These and
,indred reasons fully account for
heir survival in the affections of
numerous folk.

rlatthew ArnoId's Letters.

People, who in life are chiefly con
cerned with material affairs, will inc
little or nothing in these letters fol
them. So they find no use for many
other things. Art and literature fol
most folk are inconceivably dull, and
there is little use in trying to reach
them. There are other people who
do try to live not alone by bread,
to whom the letters will bring
refreshment of the best sort; and
these will be grateful to the Arnold
family for bringing out at the hands
OF the Macmillans two handsome
volumes sparkling with the genial
exuberance of an active and richly
formed mind. Matthew Arnold
inherited from his father, the great
master OF Rugby, some of the quail
ties that tended to disqualfy him
from accepting the easy going and
conventional formulas OF his day.
Slips and mistakes of judgment in
these books there undoubtedly are
and so there are in nearly all books;
and some things might well have
been left unsaid. But nothing is
maIlciously said, and little in the
way OF criticism that is not timely
and wise. The letters, mainly to his
mother, wife and sisters, and to his
friend, Lady Rothschid, are charm
ing examples of what letters to ones
friends can be, if one has
only the knowledge and feeling and
ability to express oneself that way.
AS we turn the pages, we catch fine
gllmpses of some English people and
some English traits; and wherever
Mr.. Arnold travels he takes US with
him and gives US here and there
choice bits of lively and sparkling
description.
Our author again and again is
nndenlably ruled by his prejudices,
and who OF human kind is not? But
unlike many men he nearly always
uses to the calm heights OF
udlcious and dispassionate in

learly on his work. Curiouslv
