This wns preliminary, and boforo nany other notion was taken. Judgo Daixca snys that he took down the statomont of RNznat's lawyer as to what ho could testify to it he **sqnoaled,” and telegraphed the samo to Wint Dexten in Washington. 'The Judgo Bays: I communicated the entire statement, both as to what waa then alleged by Reatx and ns to what 1t was belloved ho could and would further reveal, and that he had promlsed to testify as ho hnd stated tous, It wns then agreed that by reason of such testimony Renm shonld havo exemption from pun- fshiment {n the Penltentiary, The question of nen- alty was a good deal talked of, The question of the commntation of punlsimont npon the different counts was also ralscd, and this was finally left with the Conrt. Thero was, however, a distinct understanding that tho fino ahould not be less than $35,000, the amonnt of the bond, Alter having mettled npon these, tho ontlines, the conference turned upon the lemgth of the imprigonment, There was a differencs of opinlon upon this, Lo causo the mind of tho Court wae not known. Irom consultations which were afterward held, the counsel for defcnse gained the impression that it should not be over six months. Now there was no express statement to this effect; bat, a3 the pecullar character of the conversation fixed tho Impression, porhaps it would be considered but Ialr that that should bo conaldered tho statoment. The fine was (o be as high aa possible under the law, and the Imprlsonment not to excced slx months, Judge Baxcs held that when a witnesa is called by tho Government, that the prosecuting attorney has tho sole power to determine upon the sentence to be passed upon & consplrator, and the Court could not dlsregard the agreement so made. When the Government sald that Reux should not Ko to the Penitentiary, the Court contd not step in and alter the placo of confinement, In this case there was no agreoment, except that ho should not bo sent to the Penitentiary, TAere twas no ayree- sment that he should not be confined for more than iz months. The Government lawyers ngreed to **recommend " tho latteramount as the maximum, but thero was no agreement that ft should be the limit, The Conrt may sentenco Reny, i it fecls 5o disposed, for two years, Tho Court has taken the case into consid- eration for a fow dnys. It is clear that n fino of 35,000 may be inflicted without any confliot with the intention or purposes of the prosccution, and also six months in jail. But it is admitted that tho Court could not bo bound by any understanding 0s to the term of imprisonment. The Court is at liberty to sentonce zust for one or two years' impri- sonment in jail, or tho Bridowell, if ho soes fit. It was stipulated by the prosecution that Lio was not to bo sentonced to tho Poni- tentiary ; but there +vas no ngrcement or ‘understanding that he should not be commit- tod for o year or two to the Bridewell, among tho * drunks and disorderlics.” L DEMOCRATS AND THE TARIFT. Tho Democratio Convention, in ita plat- form, denounces the presont tariff beenuso it lovies taxes upon 4,000 articlos with injus- tico and inoguality ; bocause it hasimpove erished 1nany industries to subsidize o fow ; ond becauso of various other crimes and op- pressions porpetrated under it. Tmz Tom- UNE hias no friondghip or admiration for the presont tariff, and bes for yonrs urged its modifiention ; but Tar Tarsune does not bo- liovo that it lies in the mouth of the Demo- cratic party to find fault with the law or to donounce it. When the War broke ont, the tariff then in forco, propared for a timo of ponce, with tho expenditures of the Govern. ment at tho lowest standard of n ponco cs- tablishment,yielded only sbout $10,000,000 year. This was wholly inadequate to a time of war. Tho tarif was therofore properly increased, ond increased Inrgely. But when the War wns over, nnd when the high tarif censed to be a tariff for revenue, and was substantinlly a tariff of subsidies, and when tho repenl of all its protectivo features wns demanded as an act of justice and sound policy, what was the course of the Demo- cratio party? The manufacturing intorest which had sccured tho vast monopoly mnatn- rally sought to rotain it. Tha Democratic party, howover, whose whole provious his- tory had been opposed to n protective tariff, wero the strongest suxiliaries in Congress of tho monopolists, There was in Congross at the closo of tho War, and has beon down to the presont timo, n strong and intelligent body of Republicans who have resolutely la- bored for n modification of the tariff. The Democrats in Congress, however, rofused to co-operato with thedo; thoy voted to per potuate thoso features of the tariff which woro tho greatost abominntions. The fact is thie Domocrats who got into Congross from 18G5 to 1878 wera, a3 a class, electod becanso of their antl-negroism, sud were profoundly ignorant of all matters pertaining to finance and taxation, With perhaps two oxcoptions, all the Democratd from New York voted with the Protectioniats, The Pennsylvanin Dem- ocrats were a unit for Protection ; thoeo from Connecticut, Dolawaro, and Maryland slways voted to “protect” thelr constituents, Tlo Domocrats from the West wera grossly indit. {forent, or ns groasly ignorantof the charactor of tho tariff, and with strange perversity in. variably voted with the Protectionists. Whon at lnat the Protectionists, harassed by anti. Protection Republicans, mado thoir final of. fort to clinch their tariff by moving the ro- peal of tho dutios on toa and coffeo, overy Domocrat in Congrosa got up and shouted “aye,” Boignorant wora theso mon of the offect of thoir votea that to this dny many of thom clalm special crodit with their Demo- eratio constituents for having thus voted to porpetunte the greatest outrage in tho form of o tariff law that has ever existed In a olvil. izod land, To éome down to tho present time, how stands the Democratio party? Undor tho Constitution n Tarl? bill must originate in the House of Ropresentatives, Were tho Republican Senate to originato and pais such o bill, 1t would bo declared by the Dem- ocratio Houso of Reprosentatives to bo nn oot of usurpation. The Domoorats have had control of the Houso by 100 majority for seven months of continuons sosslon.” What Lave they dono in the way of roforming the tarif? Mr. Mornisoy had a bill prepared for Lim and referrrod to a Committee of which he was Chalrman, That bill proposed a alight tox on toa and coffee as a substitute for the tax on at least 2,000 of the articles now included in tho tarif, Though he was supported by the Republican members of the Committce, the Democrats voted that tax out of the bill, They preferred to con. tinue tho present tariff to any return to tho system of taxing for rovenue only, Crippled and deformed as tho bill was by the Demo. crats on the Committeo, tho bill was reported to the House, What has ths Houso done with it? Thero stands tho tarif in all jts shamelussness, a licensa to plunder and rob- bery, taking from the people five times as much as it puts in the Treasury, and yet this Democeratio House, with its 100 majority, hina for goven months rofused even to taka up that Dbl to amend tho (ariff, hna rofused oven to debate it or to considor it, nand tho only specch made in favor of a radical amendmont and rovision of tha tarif beside that of Monnt- sox's wos made by n Republican membor from tho State of Illinois. When questioned 8 to whon tha ITouse would take up the bill for nction, the Democratic Chalrman of the ‘Ways and Means Commlttoo frankly ncknowl- edged that the Democratic Iouse, with its Demooratio mnjority of 100, having the ex- clusive nuthority to pnass a Tariff bill, could not Lo induced ovon to givo o day for the consideration of the groatest abuse undcr tha Qoveramont, and thoreforo no action wonld be naked on tho Lill at this mession. Ho might have gone furthor and declared that a mojority of the Democrats in tho Houso, including the mombers from New York, Now , Jersoy, Connootiont, Pounnsylvania, Maryland, Ohio, Indians, Missouri, Weat Virginia, Michigan, and Wisconsin, and even from tho Confederato States, would have voted ngainst tho passago of any biil ropeal. ing protection or modifying tho greatost leg- islativo Iniquity perpetrated upon a free peo- plo by their repreaontatives, In tho frico of this notorions record of the Demacratio party and of the Democratic majority in Congress, tho donunciation of tho tariff by the Democratioc Convention is impudont and ridiculous; aud its demand for n change of parties in control of the Goy- vernment, that the tariff may be amended and reduced to a revenuo standard, is in fact n denunciation of the ignorance, criminality, and falsehood of the Democrats in Congress ot this time and during the last two yoars, who by their votes have aggravated tho in- justice of the tariff nud perpetuated jta rob. bordes, . ——ey WHAT DOES IT MEAN1 In tho TrLoex platform occurs the follow- ing remarkablo language: Teform I8 necessary to correct tho omisalons of o Topublican Congrers and tho erors of oar treatles and our diplomacy, which have stripped our fellow- citizens of birth and kindred race, rocrossing tho Atlantle, of the shicld of Amerlean cltizonship, . « » Wedenoonco tho policy which thus discards tho Jiberty-loving Gorman and tolerates tho revival of the Coolie trade In Mongolian women. What the Domocratio Convention nctually mennt by this langunge rospeoting citizens of Europenn, and espeolally of German birth, wao do not know. It evidontly is intonded to convey tho impression that, since the acces- sion to powor of the Republican party, some chango has been made by law or treaty whereby a German who has been naturalized in tho United States, upon roturning to his native land, is “stripped” of the shield of American citizenship, No more mendacions staloment vas over made, Dnring the forty years’ rulo of the Dowmocratio party, and down to the time of the Republican party, tho naturalized American had no right out-* side of tho United States savo such as the Europoan Governments might concodo to thom, Tho Republican party nddressod itsolf {o tho permanent sottloment of this question, and by treatios with Great Dritain, Germany, nod other Btates in Europo, succeedod in -baving an almost universal recog- nition of the right of oxpatrintion and of the right of naturalized citizens to have their citizonship troated on tho samo footing as that of natives of theiradoptod country, Instead, therofore,of stripping the foreign.born citizen visiting his native land of the righta of American citizen- ship, tho RepublicAn party has socured tohim the protection of atreaty from tho Government which otherwise might claim his allegiance and servico, It romainad for tho Republican party of tho United Btatos to oxtort from nearly all tho civilized nations of tho earth, for the first timo in the history of the world, a formal rocognition of tho right of ex. patrintion, and of the right of tho citizen of ono country to becomo a citizen of another, This is an achiovoment in diplomacy which has nover been surpnssed in the history of any nation, axd yet this Domocratic Conven- tion doliberntely denounces that diplomacy and demands its roform. *‘The liberty- loving Gormans” will not fail to trent this ridiculous resolution with contempt, THE, INDIANA DEMOORATS. Tho Indians Domocrats aro desorving of tho most heartfolt sympathy from all classes in all parts of tho country. It ishiard to bo betrayed in the houso of one's frionds, but harder still to have insult added to injury. This is the humilinting condition of Mr, Hexpnross' frionds in Indiana. Mr. Hen- pricks has been n conspicuous Demoeratio candidato for the Presidency ovar since tho New York Convention of 1668, when ho might have beon nominated had it not been for the desertion of some of his friends, Then ha was to bo tho candidate in 1872, when the Liborals came along with their Gneerey bait and caught tho Domocratio suckors, But for the past four years his nomination has been rogarded by the Indiana Democrats na simply the fulfillment of an implied pledge, and until a short time ago they looked upon: it ns cortain, ' Throo months ago Hexpniors supposed he hnd almost every Southern State, and many of the Southernors did hold out for him until they enmo in actual, personal contact with that TroeN ‘‘bar'l of wmoney.” This they could not reslst, and Iexpnicks was slaughtorod. But this waa not all. Having sold out Mr, Henpriozs and frionds, the 8t. Tonis Cou- vention had tho check to demand that Hex. pnioks should do the duty of tall to tho T1i. DN kito in ordor to liolp steady it in Indiana and tho West, and passed o resolution mak. ing a matter of party loyalty that Hexnnioss should accopt thia Insignificant place and disagrecablo duty. Itisa bittor pill, and it is still doubtful whether Ienpnioxs will con. sent to swallow it; and, if he does, it is not likely to make tho party movement any moro rapid or rogular, . ‘e Indiann Domocrats have been slighted nad cuffed all around, When the Domocrat- {o Congress was organized, Indiana took a front ravk by resson of its importance a3 o Btato and its assurod Demoo- roy. Mr. Kean wns elected Spenker of the House, and it was thought that Son- ator MoDoxavrp would take the leadorship of tho Domocratio sido of the Bemate. Now York sucoumbed end Pennsylvania mc. quiesced ; not with auy very good feeling, it is true, but still they accopted tho situation. Then ths Indisna groenbackers domanded a recoguition, and Laxokss was put forward for Governor, - But he, too, was sacrificed in tho interest of Hxnpaioks, as it was thought that hia outspoken currency vagaries might injure Henpmioks in tho campaign. The groenbackers sulynitted to this saorifice, he- ocause thoy folt that Hrspmioxs was¥with them, aud that his nomination for Presldent would bea greater viotory for them than the nomination of Luxorss for Governor, And horo was another robuke and defeat. These same greenbackers having lost Lavpers have ulso lost Hexpaioxs, aud now they are to be whipped in to sup- port a declured resumptionist, & weallhy nristoorat, the National Banks, and all Wall streot. And not only that, but they aro forced to run their greenback ecandidats for Vico-Presidont in order to ronder at lenat possiblo tho election of the resumptionist candidato for Prosident whom they so heart- ily despise. Ilero's richnosa, There's atill another phinsa of the humilia- tion and disappointment of the Indiana Dom- ocrats which ought to gnin new sympathy All Domoorats are devotod bo- Movora in tho spolls.system, having inherited for them, this doctrine from tho illustrious Jacxsox; but the Indiana Democrats are o 1ittle moro dovoted to it, if possible, than aoy others. Henco thoir steady and unwavering support of Hexpniors for Presidont theso ' many yewt, And wow the bright visions of offica and plunder: have pnssed from thelr gnzo. Domooratio success will lenve tho Indinua Demoorats out in the cold as effectnally ns Republican succoss. Hevpniors, ns Vice-President to Trupey, could not control n village Post- Offico nor a third-class clorkship, Hs wonld ba nmere ciphor, if olocted. Ilo knows it and his friends know it, and this is the renl reason of his hesitation about aceepting, o does not caro to be used as a menns for help- ing n man into the Presidontial chalr who will not give him the disposition of ns much patronngo as an obsoure member of tho Low- or Houso of Congress controls. This is whoro the shoo pinghes hardest; and, even it Hexonioxs does not bnck out, Mr, Truoey can expaot no very cordial support in Indi- ana. A LEAF FROK THE GREAT REFORMER'S RECORD, Mr. Bamven J. Tiuoew, the Confederato- Domocratic Roform candidato for the Prosi- deonoy, hos a record as a Credit-Mobilior op- erator and railrond.ring attornoy that indi- cates precisely the quality of tho reform that might bo expected from him woro ha clocted. That record of Mr. TrLoeN's—part of it—is on fllo in the United States Cirouit Court for the Southern Distriet of Now York, in tho suit of the 8t. Louis, Alton & Terro Haute Rail- way Compauy nagainst Samuen J, Tirpey and others, Thorefrom it appears that in 1861 the bond and stock holders and other creditors of the Torre Haute, Alton & St. Louis Railroad, for the proteetion of their own interests, bought the road on foreclos- urosalo and roorganized ns tho St. Louls, Alton & Terro Haute Road. Thia was of- fected through n committes of five appointed Dby tho stock aud bond helders and creditors, of which Committeo Sawmver, J. Tiroes was the chiof mombor. Tho Committee, to carry out the trust committed to them, voted an issuo to thomselves of ©10,450,000 of the stocks and bonds of ‘the mew Company. Theso thoy held in trust for tho holders of stocks and bonds of the old Company to be delivered to them upon surrondor of the stocls and bonds of the old organization. Under the chartor of the now Compnny the Trpex Committeo was nuthorized to issuo $8,750,000 stock of the now Company, that being the amount to bo issuod in liou of the stock of the old Company. But on the 80th of June, 1802, Mr. TiLoEN and his Committeo issued to themsolves £4,000,000 of tho stock of tho now Company, being $250,000 more than was authorized or requirod for the par- poses of tho trust. This quartor of o million over-issno of stock has nover boon accounted for by Mr. TrpeN and his Com. mittoo, who noted in tho matter simply as trusteos, and received the wholo amount, not for themsolves, but for the stock and bond holders intorested. In other words, as agonts, Ar. Tmoen and his nssociates re- .ceived $250,000 of stock of the now Com- pany, which they appropriated to their own uso, instead of accounting for it to the prin. cipnls for whom they ncted. The suit is brought for that quarter of a million of stock combezzlod by Mr. TiupeN and his Committeo, But Mr, Tiroex and his Committes didn't stop with that quarter of a million grab, Tlie total claims against the old Company for which first-mortgngo bonds of tho new Company wero issucd at par wero $3,045,- 740.41. But Mr. Truozex and his Committeo issued to thomselves ns trustocs for these creditors $2,200,000,—leaving n balance of $164,260,69 of first-mortgage bLonds unac- counted for, and for which Mr, Toey and Lhis associntes on the Committee are sued. Of socond-mortgnge bonds, 34,800,5645.89 of the now Compnny were required for issuo to creditors of the old Company. Mr. Trpex and his Committeo issued to themselves ns trustees to distributo these ©180,464.11 more of theso sccond.mortgage bonds, for which excess thoy have never accounted, and for which suit is also brought. o of tho common stock, they appropriated to thomselves $110,483,15 for which judgmont is aleo asked. E ‘The importance of o man's record is that, in showing what ho has done, it gives the strongost assuranco of what may bo expooted of him, This leaf from Mr. I'1LpEN's record showa that, whon intrusted by the creditorsof a bankrupt corporation with the business of sottling up its affairs for the protection of their intorests, ho abused his trust to dofrand thom to tho amount of $895,100.85, It gives agsuranca of how ho would defraud the peo- ple of tho United States wore he intrustod with the Presidency. e —— CORRUPTION AND REFORN, Prof, GoLnwin 8urtu has written an nble, interesting, and fair-minded lotter to a Canada newspaper, in which he comes to the defonsa of tho American peoplo on tho chiarge of wholesalo corruption and general demoraliza- tion which tho English journals have been busy in spreading abroad ovor since the ox. posuro of the Brrunap oaso. Prof, Surrn rominds the English peoplo that they thom. solves lived in n glass house too long to throw stonea across tho water, and recapitulates o numbor of instancea of offlcial and political corruption in tho highest circles, which he intimates was more general and perniclousin England up to the passage of the Reform act ©of 1839 than it {8 now or ever has boen in this country. It was nocessary for the railronds to set aside large special funds for use in both Housea of Parliament, and he says that tho Parlismentary oxponges of tho London & Brighton Rallway wero ns much as $15,000 per mile, There has beon comparativo purity in the English publio service since tho people have had o volco in the management of their own afinirs, but the conforring of titles as re- wards for political partisanship, end the goneral practice of purchnsing seats in Par- linmont aro still relied of the former cor~ ruption, As to this country, Prof, Burrn expresses his bolief *‘that in tho United States the ollef seat of tho ovil which exists is among the politiclans, and that the national ghar. acter generally, though not without dofects, issound.” And the fairness and truth of the followiug oxtract from his lotter will be instantly recognized : Gonot to the Jobby x4 Washington, nor to the Qold Room at New York, but to any countéy town or tarming district fu the United Stalcs, miugle with the merchants dnd farmersi olsarve the diftnscd opnlence which testifies to the general presence of steady Industry; the moral and re- ilgions habita of tho peoplo; thelr respect for law; thelr politieal Intelllgenco; thelr love of their country. Thon consldor how thelr charactor and institations have Lorne the tremondous ateain of the greatent elvil war in hlstory, You will proba- bly como, Itk othor obeorvers, to tho conclusion that, great ns are tho evils upon tho rurface of American soclety, and urgently ns thoy call for drastlo remeics, lest In courso of time they shonld #pread over the wholo community, at presont the Ttepubilo is sound below, and that the work of the reformer, though ardaoue, {s fall of hope, Wo In Canada must surely bo glad to ballove that it s eo, and that we are not doomed to havo & great mass of political corruption scallering Infection at our eldo. ‘T'estimony of this naturo coming from so distingulshed and exporienced nn observer cannot fail to cxort nn influence over tho English publio. Coming to tho cure for this political corruption, Prof. Ssurn suggosts the necessity of equalizing offlcial salarics to the necessary soclal expenditure attached to high publio places, and the reduction of eo- cinl oxponditure to a rensonable lovel. He thinks tho hard timos are doing much to bring nbout tho Intter part of the roform. A mora vigarous stop, ho suggests, would he to dofine political corruption moro nccurately and punish it more promptly. He reenlls that, some time ago in England, frands on | the parts of Trustecs became common, bo- causo it was difficult to bring the criminals to speedy justico from Inck of a spoeific lnw, but that, after tho law had been made more explicit, and two or threo prominent men had been ‘consigned to prison, thora was an immedinto improvement. 8o ho thinks the slow process of impeachniont should bo abandoned, and the official who solls his vote or an appointment should be promptly con- signed to prison by a law as summary and eflicient ns that which reaches tho common felons, Thonext step to ba taken is the puri. fication of the civil sorvice, and he rofors to the British Indin sorvico which, in the time of Wannen Hastines, was sink of corrup. tion, but which has been rendered as puro ns any in tho world by its reorgnnization into a rogular and hovorable profession. To at~ tain this, of courso, it will bo necessary to tono down siroug party foeling which runs 50 high in this country, abandon the spoils- system introduced by the Domocratio party, and mako special proparation and perma. nency the rule of the pnblic service. . — TURKEY'S WAR RESOUROES, ‘Wo have in previousissucs of Tz Tamuns givon vory full and exhaustive statements of tho military rosources of the insurgont Tark-+ igh provinces, Sorvia, Bosnis, Herzegovinn, Moutonegro, and Bulgarin. Tho Iatter province having declared its independence must now be counted among tho insurgents, and will fight 11 tho more resolutely by rea- son of tho recent horriblo cruelties inflioted by tho Circossian domons whom tho Turks turnod looso upon them, It becomes an in- toresting quostion now, What is the ability of Turkoy to carry on war? Tho army of Tarkoy comprisos throe classes of troops,— firat, tho active army; socond, tho reservo; and thirdly, the *sedontary army."” The total military forces of Turkoy, exclusivo of tho *‘sodontary army,” which is not fit for active work, are sot down at 460,000 men, ‘This namber includes, however, not only the infantry, cavalry, and nrtillery which are on a war footing, but the artillory in fortresses, enginaors, detached corps in Candia, Tripoli, and Tunis, resorves,auxiliaries, and irrogulars, Tho Turkish army has long bomne tho reputation of hoing an army onpapor for tho benefit of favorites and contractors. Well-informed correspondents of the London Times havo statod that it is doubtful whether tho Turks have to-day in tho field over 100, 000 well-drilled, relinblo troops, Tho flect of war is somewhat formidable, for tho late Bultan had a manin for iron-clads, and a manin also for spepding the nonoy borrowed of England in building them, with no inten- tion of paying it back. England Los made a virtunl presont to Turkey of 20 iron.clad ships and 70 stenmers, The iron-clads com- priso 7 frigates, 8 corvettes, and 5 gunboats, while the stoam fleot is made up of & ships of thq, lino, 5 frigates, 16 corvettes, and &5 dispatch and gunboats, the principal ships of the Iron-clad fleot avernging 161 guns, The navy is maoned by 80,000 snilors and 4,000 marino troops. It is therefors a for- midable nayy, but it must bo remembered that it will not play an important part in o war with the Insurgonts, unless the other Powers interveno, oxcopt ng they may threaten Boelgrade, Bomendria and other Bervian towns along the lino of the Danube. The bulk of tho fighting must be dono by tho nrmy, As the insurrection is spread over a groat strateh of territory, much of the warfaro must bo of tho Irrozular guer- rilla fashion, which is always n long and to- dious warfare. Tho decisive fighting must ocour botweon tho main armies, and tho com. bined asrmics of the insurgents will fully equal the ‘Turkish army in numbers, material, and resources, and will ba better officered, as every prominent officor in tho Sorvian army is a Ruasian, Tho Goneralin.Chicf is n Russian; and, in eddition to tbis, a retired Russian Goneral supplies Sorvia with diplo- maoy and stratogy. There is no doubt that tho Turks will fight, and fight desperately, for it is n lifo-nnd-death struggle with them. It tho Christions are snocessful, it is tho end of Moalemism in Europe, and the ond of the Tark, unlesa the Tark will consent to occupy his country as the serf of his formor slaves aud tho subjoct of tho ** Christian dogs.” Bat the motives which actuato tho Bolaves are just as strong. The oulrages nnd atroci- tics which tho Tarks have porpetrated, the utter desolation which hns boon sprend all over their country, and the wanton and gra- tuitonsly cruel mannor in which the Turks havo terrorized over them, have at last driven thom to that pitch of desperation whore death is proferablo to longer endurance, In addition to this, they kuow that they go into thia struggle not only with the moral help of Russia, but with the sympathy which growa out of ordinary humanity of the wholo civ- ilized world. If any nation in Europo: has an interest in tho success of Turkey, not only to countoract the ambitious designs of Russis, but nlso to socure hor own financisl interests, it is England, and yet the London Times says: *‘L'urkoy, howover indepond- ént, ia leaning on Europoean alliances, and on what sympathies can she reckon in England or alsowhero, 80 long as by her deliborate mode of wagiug war sgainst her own people ghio puts herself outside the palo of modern clvilization ?* * There aro internnl obstaclos to Turkish sucoess which should also be taken into con. sideration. Tu the]first place, Turkey is hope. legsly in debt. The amount of ber foreign debt contracted between 1854 and 1874 waa $024,908,015, whioh is exclusive of nearly three hundrod millions of English dabt, neither principal nor interest of which will ever bo paid. Nearly every one of the in. surgent provinces is out of debt, and, of ocourse, has ample credit, Tho Turks, it is stated, are already far in arrears, not only for their purchases of ammunition and sup- plies, but also for the payment of thoir Hiate sorvants, workmen, and soldiers, Of the goneral conditlon of Turkey, the Cone stantinople correspondent of the London ¥mea snys ¢ The depopnlation of tho whale Emplee conse- quonton the enlistmunt of all the able-bodled mon of tho reacrve In the active army will causo a gen- eral falling off i overy branch of tho revenne, a4 {ho hiarvest, which hero and thero 1ooks promlsing, will Inagront moasare go to wasto for want of handsto gathor it in.
