Average sworn Daily Cireutati: 2 bo. x tran three tine that any other da per ‘ington, and more than that of all the others a or ‘The Holiday Trade. inciple that “the earl; rd catches some of the most sagacious dealers oods are already arranging their displays and getting ready to make their at- tractions known tothe public. It isa well un- derstood that the best customers are those who make their holiday selections early, while Stocks are full and fresh, and when they can be properly waited on. Dealers who would secure this desirable trade shouid, therefore, be prompt to give the widest possible publicity to such inducements as they propose to hold out to purchasers seeking bargains. We need not add that the advertising columns of THE STak are the recognized medium for all com- munications of this class, but we may be par- doned for reminding business men that the 's trade before the holidays can never be made up after they have gone by. Those who commence earliest are consequently least likely to have to carry over a portion of their steck of goods until next season, with the risk of being out of style, shop-worn, and ultimately sold below cost to prevent a total loss of the investment. 202+ uring the W: shburne gives (in a lecture) ting account of the exciting scenes urred in Paris during his resid there as the representative of our go i His official and independent position, his inti- Macy with the great leaders of French poli- ties, and his service, on the application of Bis- marek, as protector of the Germans in France, On the the worm, in Holiday gave him unequalled opportunities of obtain- | ing accurate knowledge of military operations ie maneuvers and of the men who of life at the and the superficial appearan of happiness and prosperity during the reign of the Emperor Napoleon IIL are first painted. The effect of the sudden declaration of the war Which was to restore its lost lustre to the im- Perialcrown, is then deseribed. All Paris was filled with excitement and enthusiasm. At this juneture the eondition of the Germans in France became critical, and Minister Wash burne, on application of Germany, and with the assent of the United States came their protector. More than t and were furnished by him with passports, the poorer were aided in leaving the city, and some four thousand still remaining in Paris when the seige commenced were supported and pro- teeted by him. The incidents of the siege, the revolutic and insurrections, the forming of the government of national defence, the dread- ful sufferings of the starving citizens and their patience and fortitude, and finally the entry of the German troops into Paris are depicted. Mr. Washburne was the only representative of a foreign government who remained in Paris during the subsequent mob reign of the Com- mune, and was charged with the protection of citizens of no less than fourteen different nationalities. In the arse of the lecture Mr. Washburne pays high compliments to Gambetta and Thiers. The former he de- Seribes as being notable for quickness of per- ception, extraordinary exeeutive ability, Promptness, decision, energy, and supreme love of country. The great ability and pa- ud the eminent services of the latter «of our country and the admirer of our institutions, are spoken of with the warm- est admirati —___.cee-—____ The unconditional surrender of Plevna by Osman Pasha, is announced, after a desperate but ineffectual attempt to break through the Russian lines in the direction of Widdin. The fall of this point of course carries with it the failure of Suleiman’s plan of operations, and leaves the Turkish fortunes at a very low ebb, ‘The news of the fall of Plevna will no doubt cause the Sultan to see another vision, if his prophetic spirit proves equal to the oecasion, and the impiety of further prosecution of the War will be supernaturally impressed on every true believer. However, the precise nature of the Sultan’s expected interview with the Prophet will be largely determined by the char- acter of the terms offered by the Russians. Though the fall of Plevna may have been un- conditional, Turkey has not yet been thus humbled. As long as Constantinople remains uneonquered, the Czar cannot obtain unrea- sonable concessions as the price of peace; though beaten, the Sultan is not at his rival's mercy, and between the victorious forces of the Russians and the goal of Russian ambi- tion lie the Balkans, whose key, Shumla, is yet untaken, and, beyond the mountains, rise those formidable defences some twenty miles from Constantinople, which enabled Belisarius to defeat the Huns, and checked the conquer- ing Attila. It remains to be seen whether Plevna will be the Turkish Sebastopol, whose fall involves the conclusion of the war, or whether the Turks, rebelling at the Russian terms, and trusting to winter and European intervention as much as to force of arms, will continue a defensive struggle. France be- ty thous- ——__-+ee- —____ It looks a little as though Brick Pomeroy made a mistake when he sought to put away his wife because of her desire to appear upon the stage. She is a very promising actress, who has indeed already achieved considerable Success; and had he been content to be her devoted husband, he might, through her his- have occupied a position before the world—a sort of refleeted or borrowed Prominence, to be sure,—more creditable to himself any he is likely ever to achieve by his own efforts +<o-- An apoplectic epidemic among the Pashas at Constantinople in charge of Turkish military affairs may be shortly expected. It is even doubtful whether the changeable climate of Stamboul is suitable for the delicate constitu. tion of the Sultan. Amid all the decline in characteristic Turkish products due to the War, the bowstring remains “firm and steady’ and “at a premium.” ia tie nt that there is a good deal of ap. prehension in Congressional circles that we are drifting into a war with Mexico, and it is evident, too, that a very large proportion of our Congressmen look with positive disfavor upon a war with that country. For all that, it ts very likely to happen. | ‘The attack upon Engineer Hoxie by the two contractors seems to have been a pretty ruf- fianly affair, and might have proved murder- ous but for the nerve and quickness displayed IANO FOR low to wie reference. by Lieut.
