Meanwhile, the Christian provinces are making great efforts to free themselves from Moslem rule. The sympathies of the peoples everywhere are with the insurgent provinces ; here, at least, it la supposed that the Government lends its moral support to the Porto. But the outburst of popular feeling will prevent any active aid being rendered to the lowest and most brutal Government in EuroP°. rt - The letter of John Bright recalls to mind the frantic suPP°. given to Turkey twouty-two years ago, when some of the best Liberals of the country were defeated in consequence of their opposition to tne Crimean war. The present outburst of feeling is all the more stro.ot because of that war, and of the results which have followed. If tx present Government attempts to follow in the footsteps of Lord Polme!: stone, they will have to pack up their ohattals and flit, tw the Scorium  say.

Wood, the Conservative Secretary of the gene ' pea b° and. Salford Trades Council has received a lesson which it lei the will not forget.
