VON BEOST ON TURKEY. The Eastern Question Solved by a Monster Railway Scheme. AN INDO-EUROPEAN HIGHWAY. The Future of Europe—Conflict Between De- mocracy and Conservatism. SMALL STATES AND STANDING ARMIES, Viewna, Sept, 7, 1875. No European statesman has studied the Eastern question from a more practical and intellige@ point of riew than Count Beust, the ex-Chancellor of the Austrian Empire, The peculiar advantages of his posi- tion have enabled him to see the Eastern question in almost every one of its complicated aspecta’ He knows the most hidden sentiments of the Russian, German and British Cabinets under successive changes of ad- ministration, and he js ‘perhaps better able than any other living politician to foresee how complicated ques- Hons relating to it must be decided, should @ decision be forced upon the great Powers any time within the gext twenty years, Count Beust appears to think Uhat the commercial part ofthe question is the most serious now at issue, and that which will ultimately prevail over all the other fivisions of ‘1, ‘4 COMPRERPNSIVE SCHEME, He has avery comprehensive scheme of his own, in- volving nothing less than the establishment of an unin- terrupted line of communication by railroad from the British Channel to the Persian Guif. Count Beust pro- poses to traverse France and Switzerland in such a di- tection that his line shall emerge at a point near Lake Constance, running over Austrian territory from Feld- Kirch, through the valley of the rivers Save and Drave to Novi, and thence to Sophia and Adrianople so Constantinople. From the Bosphorus he would tontinue this line through the valley of the Euphrates, \erminating at Bussorah, in the Persian Guif. The dis- lance by this route from London to Constantinople is estimated at about 1,600 miles; the distance from the Golden Horn to Bussorah nearly equals that mileage. At the rate of twenty-five miles an hour, thus making ample allowance for stoppages, the journey might be accomplished from London to Bussorah in about 130 hours, The sea voyage from Bussorah to Bombay com- prises about 1,800 miles, which, with steam at the rate of twelve knots an hour, would absorb 150 hours, thus making the total voyage from London to Bombay in sbout 280 hours, or eleven days and sixteen hours, TURKEY A HIGHWAY TO INDIA, It will thus appear that Count Beust is much disposed to look upon Turkey as part of a highway to India, where interests much more important to the future of the world are about to arise than any which have refer- mnce to the internal government of the Turks. Ho thinks that Austria should be willing to sacrifice the advantages now possessed by the transit route via Vienna and Pesth, and it is understood that he was partly induced to accept the Austrian Embassy in Lon- fon in order to impress these opinions upon the British Mijsters, Ho says that from the feign of Frederick the Great down to the present period there has been an evident desire Jo impece rapid transit through Continental Europe; and to keep roads in a bad and impracticable position bas been hitherto considered among the feats of states- manship. He thinks that the projected road through Constantinople, and making the capital of the Turks a large railway station forthe promotion of an Indo- European highway, embodies the only means of secur- ‘ng the salvation of Austria and consolidating her fature prosperity. He says that to Austria itis a question of immense importancé—perbaps a question of her very sxistence—to open a road in that direction and to give the utmost development, THE SOLUTION ATTAINADLE. Count Beust is of opinion that, independently of fiscal advantages, the political importance which would there- by accrue to Austria is of value, the greatness of which it would be difficult to define, and the Count draws a plain inference that the vexed question of the Danubian provinces with the Porte would never more be heard of if his plan were carried out. He considers that Russia ‘would then have no further occasion to look with jealousy toward the Sulina mouth, while Austria would be contented to remain eventually an Inland State if the high road to India were carried through her territory. Count Beust has not a high opinion of the English rule over British India, and he is convinced that it would be materially benefited by a large importation of trade and travel from Central Europe. THE PUTURE OF EVROPR. Persons who are well acquainted with Count Beust and who have had many opportunities of conversing with him sum up his judgment on the Eastern ques- lion, as far as the relations of Turkey are concerned with the great Powers, much in the following terms, The Count has observed that “history repeats itself,” and it is still uncertain whether Europe will again be fivided into small States, or whether the large States will grow larger. SMALL STATES WILL PALL TO PIECES, The ideas of the party described “as advanced liber- als” in Europe are evidently in favor of smail govern- ments, and the Commune in France was virtually an | attempt to restore an administration similar to that of the old Republics of Greece and Italy. Marseilles and Lyons might have become another Athens and Sparta, or a new Venice and Milan. The results of such a system are not unknown to history, The small com- tmunities were unable to defend themselves in time of peril; they were obliged to call in the aid of mer- tenary troops, and they made laws and wars against each other without end. The personal rivalries And jealousies of individual citizens produced the most reful consequences. Trade and travel became difficult and dangerous, The public treasury was insufficient to meet any unexpected demands upon it, and the small States thus crippled, after having passed under the despotic authority of dominant families, such as that of Medici and Sforza, finally fell a prey to more powerful neighbors. Count Beust considers that something sim- flar might be expected m the Christian provinces of Tarkey should they succeed in forming themselves into free States. The question now at issue between con- servatism and republicanism in Europe is whether such republics shall be revived after the suppression of the Hanse towns and the smaller States of Italy and Ger. many. STANDING ARMIES. The result will depend on the possibility of the main- tenance of large standing armies by the great Powers, and also upon the fidelity of those armies to the govern- ments at present established. In order to arrive at any rational Judgment on this subject it must be re- membered that the principle of universal military ser- vice which has come {nto fashion of late years in Europe has changed the soldier from a man whose sole business in life was fighting into a citizen who has many other occupations; and that soldiers no more belong to ®& separate caste, In armies as they are now stituted Provotion ie slow, the gains of military ‘are small an ertain, and the state of public opinion will not alle cir profession being mads attractive by any Bpec ors and privileges, Where every man must pass re of bis life as a soldier few take up the » profes: as a career; and, moreover, an army (@@hses to Le an obedient and manageable machine to Become a deliberative assembly, whose opinions must | be consulted before it can be led into action, It par. takes of the popwiar passions and prejudices of the moment, and it will act or remain supine in any crisis, according to the popular delusions of the time, The great Vowers have all large armies, and, as Jong as thoy can be maintained, large communities will hold together. But the want of hands for civil employments, and the high price of wages for even the lowest sort of manual labor, is a dif- fieulty constantly increasing, and with which the War Offices of Europe will have henceforth to contend under considerable disadvantages. Also, \t must be considered that one of the first effects of the increase of trade and edneation is that the people who form the strength of armies discover the advantages of almost every o pation to be greater than those of a military life. THR TURKISH ARMY. J Tarkey this is especially the case, The rayah pop- \ NEW YORK HERALD, SATODAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1875—-TRIPLE SHEET. aiation of the Ottoman Empire has now for several years been admitted in the theory of the military ser- vice of the Porte; but the rayahs bave persistently re- fused to’accept the house offered to them. Young men of fortune belonging to the old official families of tho Phanan will consent to hold the higher commissions and wear a little tinsel on their coats for a short time till they tan get places in the civil service; byt the poor- est of the rayahs will not voluntarily serve in the ranks, ‘The great commands of the Turkish army are generally given to aliefts, Thus the natives of patriotism and of loyalty must be in @ great degree absent from armies so constituted; and, though all men will fight when ably led against an enemy, it may be questionable whether troops Mke those of Turkey would withstand prolonged reverses, and the Ottoman Empire cannot Be kept together without a large military force, in good working order, LARGE ARMIES NECESSARY. Everywhere in Europe, while the distaste for a mil- itary life increases on the part of the people, large standing armies have become necessary for the purposes of goverument, and they can only be maintained at a cost of men and money which nations are growing more and more unwilling to pay, If the standing armies and military police of Europe were abolished, ag the “liberal party” virtually wishes to abolish them, or were they reduced altogether to as- semblies of citizens, only armed and drilled when oc- casion required, there would be risings everywhore among the disaffected, and no bodies of men could be got together on an emergency sufficiently numerous and well disciplined to put them down, It is admitted that order and safe government rest upon physical force, and if physical force may not or cannot be used it is difficult to understand bow order will be preserved. WHAT AUSTRIA WANTS, Austria docs not want any increase of territory, nor | does Russia, But Austria does want an uninterrupted navigation of the Danube and quiet upon her own bor- ders. If Turkey can govern her provinces peaceably | Austria would like to ase the status quo prolonged. If the smaller States could be orderly Austria could have no objection to see them formed in independent or quasi independent States under peaceable rale of any 80Tt they might like best, But the wars of small States have always been very flerce; and wetween Servia and Montenegro there is much «he same feud as formerly existed betweou Moldavia and Wallachia, LARGE STATES NECESSARY. Large States with lange armies only can insure quict Detween conflicting populations, and, should the prov- inces of the Porte succeed in shaking off the yoke of Turkey entirely, we might see a series of petty wars which would close the Danube to commerce from Bel- grade to Galatz, and then both Russia and Austria would be compelled to interfere, though whether they could do go-with any permanently good object or without great danger to themselves is quite another question, mE TION OF THE RAYAHS, The rayah population of Tarkey is accustomed toa yery lax government and to very light taxation, whereas the government of all the larger States is firm and the taxation heavy. Not only the Court, the army, the navy and the civil service have to be main- tained out of tho public burdens, but the administra- tion of the law has to be provided for. There are taxes for tho maintenance of the public health and education; poor rates, paving and lighting rates, taxes for efficient drains and for gooa roads, most of which charges are unknown to the rayahs of Turkey, and they would excite amaze- ment when brought to their notice. They would be discontented when subjected to such a system of taxa- tion ag is necessary to the existence of a civilized government, and a few ycars after their annexation either to Austria or to Russia the same agitation would be made for “home rule” as that which is now going on among them. The Sclayes would always ask for any change which would promise to diminish their burdens or to promote individual ambition, just as they are now asking for a change. NO INTERFERENCE NEEDED. There is nothing peculiar in the state of Turkey and her provinces, or anything which calls for the inter- ference of the great Powers, so long as the Porte can preserve order within Turkish territory. Finland has aspirations after home government under Russian rule; Croatia wants home government under the rule of Aus- tria, and Ireland equally desires it under the domin- ion of England, Should Turkey, however, be unable to keep the peace in Montenegro and in the Herzegovina it will then remain to be seen what Power can be substituted for the Turkish authority in these countries, and what arrangement will be most for the general good. No statesman of any great power now covets increase of territory in this direction; and, therefore, no doubt can be entertained that the Euro- pean Cabinets would approach the subject of a partition of Turkey ina very cool and reasonable frame of mind. Neither Austria nor Russia, the only parties concerned with Montenegro and the Herzegovina, have an interest in annexing them. On the contrary, they have every | interest in abstaining from meddling at all with } the discussion im its ‘present state The dnly question remaining, and it is avery serious one, is whether ill-governed States, with their mefficient police, their vicious tariffs, their imperfect sanitary arrange- ments, the deplorable state of their roads, agriculture and navigation should not be considered as the plague spots of the world whose existence is dangerous to the common weal. It is clear that some change must and will be made fn Montenegro and the Herzegovina as soon as all parties shall have arrived at that conclu- sion. This ig a more or leas exact report of the opinions of Count Beust on the present condition of affairs in the East, and if they have been faithfully recorded they are not wanting in the value and importance which belong to consummate statesmanship and great experience. THE NATIONAL GAME. THE CHELSEAS BEAT THE FLYAWAYS—TEN THOU- SAND PEOPLE PRESENT AT THE CONTEST. Ten thousand people were present at the game at the Elysian Fields, Hoboken, yesterday afternoon, to wit- ness the return game between the Chelseas, of Brook- lyn, and the Flyaways, of this city. This is good proof that the interest in professional playing has faded out, and that those who like to see the game played earnestly and honestly flock to see the amateurs play, as this was the largest crowd that has assembled at any game this sea- | son. A finely played and close game was expected by those present, but in this particular the spectators were disappointed, as the Chelscas had everything their own way, their opponents playing 4 miserable game. With the exceptions of Dwyer and Wareham, who had no dificult plays to make, the New York nine fielded wretchedly, while the Brooklyn club did quite | well. Clare's finished and graceful catching | cannot be praised too highly, while Rule | pitched so effectively that only four clean | hits were made off him. Dunne and Hourigan, too, | played their positions finely, the latter making the best play of the game by a magnificent throw from left fleld to home base, by which he put a man out who was run- ning home. Cussidy, also, made an excellent running catch, Both of these clubs claimed the championship of New York and vicinity, but this game gives the Cheiseas the series, as they won the first game by a | | score of § to Below is the score :— H CHELSRA.

One of the most notable circumstances that has arisen on the English turf of late has been the running of Lady Moslyn, a two-year-old with an American pedigree, and perhaps the best racehorse in England. Annette, the dam of Lady Moslyn, was one of the mares that Mr. R, Ten 8roeck took to England. She is by Scythian out of Alice Carneal (the dam of Lexington), by Sarpedon. From this it will be seen that Annette is halfsister to the celebrated Umpire, whom it is said Mr. Ten Broeck backed to win £150,000 in the Derby of 1860, won by Thormanby. Umpire, who was by Lecompte, thero can be no doubt, was a magnificent horse when in oon- dition to run. Annette found her way into the stud of Mr. BR. Drewitt, a trainer, at whose death she was sold to Sir Thomas Len- nard for the small sum of 110 guineas, Lady Moslyn | is the property of the widow of Mr. Drewitt, who, at the death of her hasband was only poorly provided for, Luckily in the young American was discovered a gem of the first water, In less than a fortnight she won in stakes alone £2,500, and the great French two- year-old, M. de Fligny, had no chance with her, Mra. Drowitt treats the Lady like one of her own children, and though, as we have stated, she is far from being @ rich woman she refused £3,150 for the filly when it was offered her and cried as she did so. No money, she says, will induce her to part with “her lady.”’ The nated turfmen in this country should observe the breed- ing of this filly, and with some of their mares with the Alice Carneal blood i their veins would no doubt do well by mating them with siresstrong in the Touchstone blood. Lady Moslyn “throws back’’ to that ous horse, both through her sire, Lord Clifden, and her dam, who on the male side or through Orlando from Touchstone. John Scott always said that Touchstone was the best horse he had ever known. lt was fortunate for England that he belonged to a Croesus like the Marquis of Westminster, or the Ameri- cans would have had him. They asked the Marquis to put @ price on him, and he said “the United States of America would not buy him.” The best horses in England and Frauce trace back to this highly valued animal, i LILY AGNES. A poor woman is the owner of the best two-year-old in England, and @ poor man rejoices in the possession of the best four-year-old. This is Lily Agnes, who re- | cently in the Kbor Handicap at York lowered the colors of Apology, who last year carried off the One Thousand Guineas, Oaks and St. Leger. Mr. James Snarry, the owner of Lily Ag- nes, is an eccentric old character.” He was for many ears stud groom to that rare old specimen of an English gentleman, Sir Tatton tykea Sir Tatton bequeathed to his faithful servant a brood mare whose first foal proved to be Lily. Asa yearling sho was so puny that nobody would make a bid for her, and Snarry, in high dudgeon, took her home again. To the surprise of every one she turned out a racer of unueual excellence, and she is the Benjamin of Snarry’s affections, The old gentleman always carries abbut with him an umbrella of extraordinary dimensions. Before the race at York an officious individual ventured vw suggest to Suarry that Lily Agnes would not win. “Not win! not win! damn thee, what does thee mean by saying stie’ll not win!” shouted the old man, and with the words he brought down his umbrella ‘whack’? on the head of the doubter of the mare’s abilities Mr. Snarry took to his bed for a month last year, when some one dared to ask him if he would take 2,500 guineas for his darling, and he has never been induced to speak to that man ina friendly way since, Part with her, indeed! PEDESTRIANISM, In Bell’s Life in London, of 4th inst, was a cbal- lenge from J. W. McCloud, who offered to bet £100 that W. E. Harding could beat Perkins, the champion walker of England, fifty level miles on any race track in New York or New Jersey, or McCloud would ar- range two matches, same conditions, the first to take place at Deerfoot Park, Long Island, or at the West Side Driving Park, New Jersey, and the return race to take plano at Lillie Bridge, Hackney Wick, or Royal Oak Park, Manchester, England, In answer to the above challenge Perkins replies as follows: — In answer to the challenge from W. E. Harding, of New York, W. Perkins, the English champion, willing! accepts, but stipulates that the man he is to wail against’ must be named in the articles, He will walk for £100 a side, each match, the whble of the money to be posted before either match takes place—£200 in the hands of Bell’s Life and £200 in the hands of Wilkes’ Spirit of the Times, Perkins will give and take £30 for expenses, and will agree to walk at Montreal, Canada, The return match to take place at Lillie Bridge, and the first match to be walked within six woeks of sign- ing articles, AQUATIC SPORTS. REGATTA OF THE SEAWANHAKA BOAT CLUB ON NEWTOWN CREEK. The fourth annual regatta of the Seawanhaka Boat Club took place on Newtown Creck yesterday after- which was enjoyed by several bumdired people, oon- gregated at the clab house, at the bead of Ash streot, and on both banks of the creck in its vicinity. ‘The steam yacht of Mr. Charles A. Girdler, President of the club, with the judges and representatives of the | press, followed the boats in each race over the course, frag the club house to three stakeboate anchored in a line seven-eighths of a mile up the croek and return, The upper floor of the club house was reserved for ladies, of whom there were a goodly number, who were | entertained by music when no boats were on the Creek, and who enjoyed and applauded the several exhibitions of aquatic skill given during the afternoon, All the contests were started at the firing of a pistol, and are ‘briefly summarized as follows :— First Kace.—Single seuil shells by Junior members of the club fora silver card receiver. Nicholas Golden- kirch, Charles Searle and David Myerly started, Searle getting off last, On the way up, however, by a suc- cession of spurts, he obtained the lead and turned his stakeboat first.

[From the Cincinnati Commercial, Sept, 22.] A man named Oscar Nixdorf, about twenty-eight years old, who said he was recently from the Soldiers? Home at Dayton, had his left arm fearfully broken and lacerated by the grizzly bears at the Zoological Garden. yesterday afternoon, In spite of repeated warnings of the keeper he persisted in sticking his hand through the bars, saying he knew the nature of the animals and was not afraid of ther, The keeper turning away for a moment, Nixdorf thrust his arm through the bars into the ‘cage, and the male grizzly caught it, and almost immediately the female also seized it.’ The man’s arm was like a dry weed in the claws of the powerful animals, and he cried out with pain and terror. He thrust his other hand through the burs to endeavor to release himself, and that was badly lacerated at the wrist. The keeper came to his assistance and with much difficulty extri- cated the unfortunate man His left arm was a nerve- less mass of broken bones and mangled flesh, It was broken at the wrist and above and below the elbow, and drawn from the socket at the shoulder, and pulled from the joint at the elbow, At one time ‘one of the animals tiad the man by the head, and he would, no doubt, have been drawn into the cage by piecemeal had not the keeper come to his help and driven the beasts off. The wounded man was taken to the Cincinnati Hos- pital 1t was ascertained that he had been employed as a nurse at the hospital and was discharged for drunk- enness, Ho was, no doubt, under the influence of liquor yesterday afternoon, He will be fortunate if he does not lose his life, as there is great danger of gan- grene setting in. His left arm was amputated last night. BURIED BARRELS OF SILVER. {From the Springfield Republican.] ‘A good deal of derision has been expended by the newspapers, writes a correspondent, over the abandon- ment of the silver mining enterprise at North Dana, ecause the miners were said to have labored under piritual direction. Nevertheless, it is well known that the hillsides in that vicinity abound in marble, soap- tone, iron ore, emery, &c., which eometime will be eveloped and worked toa profit. And this recails the radition which has been handed down from years ago, that one Glazier Wheeier, on his dying bed, wrote to a North Dana man that two barrels of genuine silver coin were buried in the township. Wheeler, in the early settlement of the town,'some 100 years ago, or at the time the notorious Stephen Burroughs, forger and preacher, was supplying a a at East Pelham, had a cave in the hillside where he made spurious com, turn- ing one dollar into three, and this money was largely in circulation at that time. But the knowledge of his connection with Burroughs, who was afterward ar- rested in this city for counterfeiting, and the discovery of his underground furnace by some hunters made it unsafe for Wheeler to remain at North Dana; so he de- parted for other fields. Several years after, when about to die, Wheeler wrote to an acquaintance at his old home about the two barrels of silver, which he asserted were filled with true Spanish dollars; but they have never been discovered. Wheeler lived on what is now known as the Nathaniel Williams place, a little south of the village, and his cave or furnace was so constructed that he could enter it by stepping out of a boat on the river, thus leaving no foot prints to betray his hiding place. MELANCHOLY SUICIDE. A YOUNG GIRL OF NINETEEN SHOOTS HERSELF. [From the Montreal Gazette, Sept. 21.} A sad affair took place yesterday evening about seven o’clock in front of the St, Lawrence Hall, being nothing less than the attempted suicide of a young girl named Mary Jane Cantfield, It appears that the young wo- man, some four years ago, had been seduced by one said to be Denis Brennan, a married man and the father of a family, residing in this city, The poor girl's disgrace, coupled with the fact that she seems to have been suspected of steal- ing some articles belonging to a Iady with whom she was engaged ag a servant some time ago, preyed upon her mind to such an extent that she took the most speedy means of ending her hfe and shot herself. It'appears that she fully intended to shoot Brennan as weil as herself, for she met him during yesterday afternoon and a scene ensued, the poor gitl upbraiding him with the ruin be had entailed upon her, entreating him to do something for her—the precise nature of which does not appear— or she would shoot him first and afterward kill herself. She appears to have been desperately in earnest in the matter, for about seven o'clock she appeared at the entrance of the St. Lawrence Hall and inquired for Brennan. On being informed that he was absent the despairing girl drew a revolver and fired, pointing the revolver toward her heart The pistol fell from her grasp to the marble-tiled floor of the passage, and fancying the first shot had not done the work thoroughly, the determined woman picked the weapon up, Foujnsied it, and plac- ing it against her lett breast again fired, this time ap- parently with more effect, for she fell to the floor and ‘was borne into the adjoining room, when a messenger was despatched for medical assistance. The doctor in attendance could do little to alleviate her distress, and it was feared she would goon bleed to death, the wounds being supposed, from the direction they had taken, to have entered her lungs. She was subsequently removed to the Montreal General Hospital, where it was ascer* tained that, though one of the lower riba was fractured and the pistol balls impossible of access from the weak- ness of the sufferer from loss of blood, her lungs were not pierced. It was feared that internal hemorrbage would soon end her sufferings, how- ever, and probably ere this meets the reader's eye the tragedy will have been complete and Mary Jane Cant- field a corpse. It ig proper to state that, though the atfair took place at the St. Lawrence Hail, neither of the ‘ties concerned had any connection with that eftablishment, Some two years ago the would-be sui- cide was servant to a family in the nouse; and Denis Brennan is the agent for Maury’s livery stables, and looks after the interests of that firm in supplying vehicles for the use of tourists and other guests of the Hall. The following \etter, found on the person of Miss Cantfleld, leaves little doubt that she meditated tho fatal act which, doubtless, has consigned herself to the grave and her seducer to everlasting ignominy :— To THe Witness: — Don't blame me for what IT have done. I am heartbroken and discouraged. I am blamed in the wrong as well. I tried to get aliving, bat lam disgraced. I vever stole anythin from anybody, tut Ihave been @ fool about that man {hal has bed me to tl My truth and strength is God. I cannot kill anybody; I hope he will soon be in heaven with me. Goodby, all denr frieuds. Send my things home to my father.

Sbepe Mr, O'Hara will find bis things soon; I never saw them. II did I would not take them. I did not see them, Will some one try and find out who done itt This and another letter, addressed to Denis Brennan, were found on the person of the unfortunate young «woman, and the above was handed to our reporter for publication, SHOCKING SUICIDE. Frederick Tanbert, a German, residing at No, 112 Lillie street, Newark, committed suicide there yester- day afternoon, under circumstances peculiarly distress- ing. It appears that Tanbert, who was a man close on sixty years of age, bad been affected by the hard times to such a degree that he was unable to find bread for his farnily and means to ay his rent, On Thorsday his jandiord ordered bim from the house for failing to pay,the rent, He could not raise the money and resolved to kill himself, Ho fat in a chair, arranged a loaded gun between bis legs, with the butt at his feet and the muzzle resting at his mouth, With the ramrod he touched the trigger and the bail crushed through the roof of his mouth into Two crews euleres® and wariou, OC.

A SPRIGHTLY YOUNG WIDOW ELOPES WITH A PROMINENT REAL ESTATE AGENT—A FLUTTER IN THE HIGH-TONED CIRCLES OF TRENTON— HE APPROPRIATES THE PROPERTY OF HIS WirE, TRENTON, Sept. 24, 1875.

The affair has created quite a sensatra here on account of the well known social standing o Shuler, who is quite a prominent politician and sport- Jug min. Whore they have gone to isa mystery but one thing is certain, they are not in this city to-night. Shuler was compelled to sever his connection with the firm of Freese & Co. ¥ , and this, coupled with other circumstances touching the affair, give it increased credibility, It is the subject’ of universal comment hore this evening. A MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE. A PROMINENT CITIZEN AND RAILROAD MAN MISSING—SUSPICIONS OF FOUL PLAY, Trenton, N. J., Sept, 24, 1875. Word has reached this city this evening that great uneasiness is feltin Camden about the sudden disap- pearance of Albert W. Markley, a well known resi- dent of that city. Itappears that he left his home on Thursday morning last with the intention of visit- ing Port Morris on business, Since that time nothing has been heard of him, and it is presumed that he has met with an accident or foul play, He is known throughout the country by his connection with the Pennsylvania Railroad Company and other railroad and ferry enterprises. He isa man of great respectability and influence and holds a high position in society. connected Shuler + & 800. mortgage CLOSE OF THE WAVERLEY FAIR.

Among those to whom he was introduced was General Pemberton, who was in charge | of the Confederate forces at Vicksburg when they sur- rendered to Grant ‘Mr. President,” sak the Gen- eral, “I believe we met once before. It was at Vicks- burg one Fourth of July.” “Yes, remember it now,”” replied the President, smiling, and the quondam oppos- ing chieftains of the war chatted pleasantly for a few minutes. “A FATAL JUMP.
