tho abwenoo of such commotions should be
construed as a sign of spiritual atrophy

Small Hope Now Tor Arnbi.
When on Thursday tho Sultan's delegate
laid beforo tho conference tho draft of an
ltado proclaiming All.uii Pasha and his ad
herents rebels, a step was token which cannot
bo otherwleo regarded than as tho beginning
of tho ond. It Is truo that tho decroo has not
yet boon officially issued, but to withhold it
now would bo an Impertinence to tho powors
represented ot Btamboul, and It soems clear
that Auduii-IIamid has been constrained by
tho outspoken and firm support given to
Lord DCFi-mira by tho German enoy to
abandon his system of double-dealing and
delay, and rango himself openly upon tho
sldo of Tewi'IK nnd Great Britain.
When tho text of this proclamation ls pub
lished throughout Egypt, tho rebellious Min
Istor will loso at onco tho countenance of
those who ha o been Induced by specious ru
mors and tho ambiguous conduct ot tho
Porto to beliovo that tho machinations of tho
military party wcro viewed without disfavor,
If not with positivo satisfaction, by tho Sul
tan. It is extremely doubtful whether Aituii
will bo able- to ho'.d together any con
sldctablo forco when his offlcors under
stand that they will havo to copo not
only with British soldiers, of whoso merit
they know nothing by experience, but with
that Ottoman infantry whoso prowess they
had a chance of witnessing at Plo no. Yhilo
thoy may imagine, though mlstakonly, that
Egyptian troops, buoyed up by religious for
vor, could hold their own against an Euglish
army, they cannot seriously beliovo them a
match for Turkish oterans. Their misgiv
ings upon this point will bo aptto bo singular
ly deepened by tho consciousness that thoy
can at any moment mako their own peace
with tho Porte by deserting their party chief.
Wo should not, therefore, bo surprised if
tho mero publication of tho irado wcro to
bo followed by nn Immediate dissolution
of tho so-called national movement Such
a result, Indeed, may bo postponed by
doubts of tho genuineness of tho decree, or
by tho surmise that tho Turkish troops,
once landed, would mako common causo with
their co-rellgionlsts. For such an expecta
tion wo can see no ground, for Insubordina
tion has not been known in tho Turkish army
siuco it was reorganized about fifty years
ago. That tho Sultan himself would sanction
bitch a gros act of treachery ls Incredible
His chief commercial cities, Smyrna and
Salonlca, and even his capital, Ho open to
bombatdment fiom tho English licet, and his
gioppupon tho remnant of Ottoman tcrrl
totylu Europe would bo abruptly sundered
by any llagtnnt breach of faith. No, tho
pledges which AbduiIIamid gives tho con
fetenco will bo kept, and so long as Mr.
Gi.ustose has Prince Bismauck at his
back tho Turkish troops will act in concert
with tho Btitlshfoi cos.
It U, of eourte, just possible that tho dcslro
of a t evolution in tho Culiphato, which Is
said to bo widely felt in tho Atab section of
tho Egyptian population, may lead tho
UI'mas of Caiio to venture on tho perilous
btep of deposing Audul-IUuiu fiom tho
oplritual headship of Islam, and pro
claiming a now Commander of tho
Faithful. But they will bo likely to
he-Itnto long beforo committing a species of
ttenson, for which, under Moslem law, no
pnidott Is posslblo In this world or tho next.
And If the dissatisfaction of tho Arabs with
tho Ottoman Caliph Is ccr to find vent in
oxctt demonstrations, it might bo well for
Aiiuuij-IItMiD if tho outbreak could como
now, when ho would practically havo
behind him tho forty million Mus
sulmans of India as woll as tho
ImmenbO financial and military re
sources of Gtcat Btllaln. With on English
fleet In tho Red bca, tho Sultan would havo
no difficulty In occupying Mecca and Medina,
and, onco actual master of tho two shrines,
oer which nt present his authority is but
nominal, ho could afford to laugh at Uio ap-prchoa-dous
of nn Arabian callphato, whloh
for many years havo haunted tho rulers of
the house of Otiiman.
Gtmtcmaln'g Boundary Question.
While dlplomatio etiquette withholds from
public knowlcdgo full and exact details ot
tho inters low which recently took place at
Wubhlngton between Piesldent AnTHim and
Piesident Barrios, its general upshot ls
well understood. It Is known that President
AitTHUR expressed a peifect readiness to act
as umpire In tho boundary dlsputo between
Guatemala ond Mexico, but only on con
dition that both countries should form
ally icqucbt him to undcitako this duty,
after a mutual ngrooment on a state
ment ot facta nnd a prcoiso definition ot tho
points to bo submitted to arbitration. This
tteatment of tho matter by President An-
tiil'r Is In marked contrast with that begun
by Secretary Blaine; it is a polloy of saga
city, dignity, and tact, contrasted with ono
of eagerness, InUlgue, and partiality.
Tho dispute Itself Is moio than halt a cen
tury old, ecn In Its picsent form, and as a
gencial question ot Mexican righto in Gua
temala It might o en antedate tho discovery
of tho continent. Although It has asbumed a
icWwd uigcncy for several vears.lt scorns
to hao been specially stimulated by Mr.
Bi. vine's accession to tho Stato Department.
Tho spirit ot lutci ferenco lu thoaffaitsof tho
Spaulbh-Amei lean rcpubllco exhibited nt Uio
outset by tho now Secretary could not cscopo
tho oyo of Gen. Uaiuuob, who, aj Uio de
spatches of Minister C, A. Logan show, pio
pohod last year that tho United States
should mediate lu tho dlnputo. On tho
loth of June, thereto! c, Mr, DrauNu dliected
Mi MoiiOAN, tho Ameilcau MInlbter In Mex
ico, to mako an olToi ot mediation. But ho
put this offur on tho giouud of "tho iosltlon
hlch tho Uuited btatcs occupy as tho
foundci and, to a cm tain extent, tho sunpoit
ei and gunullannf icpiiDllcan pilnctplcs on
tho American continent." Tho diffoienco bo
tweon Miluiiteoilng and urging mediation
on tho ono hand, nud on tho other accepting
a mutual Invitation to atblttate, Is very ob
v lone. Iu addition, tho responsibilities which
Mr. DtATNE thus announced as assumed by
I tho United States might load to very trouble
some and costly complications. If tho fact
Uuit Uio United Stated catablUUed a, republic
is to mako our country sponsor or guardian
for all tho HtUo republics which have Blnco
been formed on tho homlsphero, tho Job is a
largo ono to undertake Ibo Constitution
guarantees a republican form of government
to tho various States of tho Union; but if lu
addition our country Is under a moral obllga
Uon to uphold republican principles ovor tho
whole Amorloan continent, tho political revo
lutions which so frcqucnUy subsUtuto'a dic
tator fur a President, or ono dictator for an
other, in tho various UlUo countries south of
us, might keep us perpetually embroiled In
tholr affairs,
In another way tho plan of Mr. BiiAiNi!
contrasted with the senslblo ono adopted by
President Annum. Ills despatch to Mr.
Moboan set out on array ot so-called his
toric facts which probably formed very
agreeable reading for Gen. Baiuuos. Ho in
ferred from those facts that Mexico had
formerly seized a portion ot Guatemala's
territory, and had been influenced by a feel
ing of " conquest and absorption." Tho ro
ply of Mexico very naturally was tho rejeo
Uon of a proposition of mediation offered
with such preliminaries and under so plain
a bias. Tho alleged historic facts woro dis
puted with somo vigor, and tho inference
that Mexico was holding by forco a part of
Guatemalan territory was rejected. A duo
regard for Mexico's honor and sovereignty
would not allow her, said tho Moxican Min
ister of Foreign Affairs, to submit to arbitra
tion tho ownorshlp of territory which had
been joined to that ropubllo by Uio freely ex
pressed choice of Its Inhabitants, and hod
been an integral part of Its possessions for
moro than fifty years.
Tho dllToronco between this polloy and that
of President Arthur Is oon In tho result.
Mr. Blaine did not succeed In accomplish
ing anything beyond exciting unduo hopes
on Uio part of Guatemala, and suspicion and
hostility on tho part ot Mexico. His actual
purposo romalned unaccomplished. Indeed,
Mexico expressed tho opinion that Mr.
Blaine had been imposed upon by Guate
mala's tamporlngs with history. Whothcr
this was so or not, and whether tho case of
Guatemala or that of Mexico ls tho moro
just, need not now bo considered. It is
enough to point out that, under tho wlso treat
ment of tho quostion by Prosldont Author,
all tho ill effect of Mr. Blaine's courso has
boon counteracted. Gen. BARRI03 moy or
may not bo chagtincd at tho change which a
year has wrought in American statesman
ship, but ho has repeatedly expressed his
continued desire to accept tho United States
as arbitrator, and oven to anango boforo
hand with Mexico tho questions to bo sub
mitted. On tho other hand, thoro havo been
publlo manifestations in tho city ot Mexico
ot comploto satisfaction with President
AiiTiiun's polloy, and this may oventually
result in a settlement of tho long dispute.
Secretary Chandler's romp nt Sea.
Seoor Kobesox expended largo sums of
money upon tho royal yacht Tallapoosa.
Secor Bobeson's successors havo mado free
with tho peoplo's monoy In order to increoso
tho mngniflccnee of this pleasure boat As
wo have already shown, tho Tallapoosa has
cobtjubt about $809,000. Bho has now boon

Tho projected excursion will bo expensive
not to Mr. Cuandler, however, for ho will
foot tho bills from tho navy appropriation.
Including tho cost of tho gunpowder exploded
In behalf of his dignity as ho sails along Uie

In Now England Mr. WilltamE. Chand

Uccs, and capablo of exeeuUng almost any
trick in order to carry a point in practical
politics. Ho personally managed tho fraud
by which tho voto of Florida was stolen fiom

Is It poaslblo that a man llko Cii CDi.rn Is

As to tho Tallapoosa, It would bo a meas
ure of economy to blow her up or sink her lu
forty fathoms of water, together with tho

They aro really nothing but luxuriously up

and his chances of suooebS in a very impor

"It t, Kiitleman ttkte a lad? to a dance and leave

It Is not proper for a lady to do what our

until tho gentleman who bi ought her is

Uien enter tho gay osscmblago on his aim.
If it Is necessary for him to put up horses
beforo ho can present himself, that makes no

Tho earo ho expWls upon his horeos Is

A youu,r man who Is a llrnt-tnU veteilimry
surgeon can coitaluly mako a living at tho
business In this country. It Is not jot so
lucioUvo ns it Is In England, whoio vet
erinary Burgeons sometimes mako hand
some fortuues and nro mon of a good deal of
account; but It pays, and tho demand for
tho boi vices of a competent doctor for tho
i

ing. About -tho largo cities and in oUior
places whoto theio aro many and valuablo
hoi see, veteriuary Burgeons of approved
skill and high professional roputaUon do ex
ceedingly well.
Of old days tho Jioreo doctor was very
often only a Jaok-atall-tradcs, or ho was a
blacksmith, who had plekcd up a moro or
less oxtcnslvo and moro or less accurate
knowlcdgo of tho ills to which beasts aro
liable Ills remedies wero fow and active,
and his troatmorrt generally of tho most
horolo kind. But latterly It has been recog
nized that, agmuch sclmUflo skill maybe
required In treating a horse disabled by dis
ease as in treating a sick man. Veterinary
colleges havo sprung up here, and cspoclally
at this Umo, when thoro aro so many famous
stables, tho really expert, judicious, faithful,
thorough, and common-sense volerinary sur
geon ie held in much esteem as a man whoso
services aro grcaUy needed, and are often
indispensable;
Ho PincR Tor Love.
A young man comes to us for tho medicine
of advice, not to euro a heart wounded bo
causo of love, but to soften a heart which
norcr yet has felt tho tender passion. Ho
wants to fall (n lovo, but ho cannot. Ho wants
to marry, but ho cannot sot his affections on
any girl, though ho knows many.
But tho following lottor describes his oaso
moro particularly :
"I am 37reara old, of food connection, reasonably
well educated, not uoprepoiesilng In appearance, and
aoeuitomedtoieclety. While not what la known aa a
' ladle i' man,' Ihavaalwaya found fat or In their ejci.
Xly Income la anfflclent to JntUfy marriage. I am a
tronf adrocato of matrimony, fond ot children, and
long for a wife to truly lore. A borne ot my own with a
lot log wife teems to ma the extreme ot earthly biles.
" Vet, entertaining these sentiments anil feeling this
yearnlnjt to marry, I my friends, one by one, marry
ing tha girls ot their choice, leaving me still la lonely
bachelorhood. I coustanUy meet and Intimately know a
large number ot ladles, city and country, and yet I hart
never In my life felt moved to marry any parUcular one.
This baa been the case for some years. It ls not because
I have not plenty ot ladles' society. I have It. It Is not
because I am fickle, or do not know my own mind. I
havo never had even tbe approach to a love affair, and
am constant enough In other matters. I am not exact
ing. I am not bashful. WhUe not very tusceptlblo, I
am not unimpressionable. I sometimes unrrilllngly
think I am heartless, yet I cannot reasonably so con
clude. I long for a loving wife whose affeoUon I could
return with my rant-up stores of love; yet all my long
ing la In vain. I have never seen a woman I felt eve n a
fancy toward. This seems to me unnatural. Inexplicable.
I cannot unravel the mratcryot my own heart. Ton
wlU earn my lasting gratitude It you can explain It."
This seems to bo a strango cose, docs It
not? A young man ot twenty-seven, good
looking, Intelligent, accustomed to Uio so
ciety ot ladles, and not disliked by thorn, has
never sufficiently Interested ono of them In
him to mako her fall In lovo with him, and by
that means awaken in him a return of her
affection I
For that, probably, Is about tho case, no
has notlovod bocauso ho has not boon loved.
How unfortunate, then, Is this young man 1
Tho girls ho knows seem to regard him as a
moro or less useful attendant, aro not dis
posed to find his society tiresome, hold him
as a valuablo being In his way, perhaps, but
their hearts do not go out to him. Very
likely thoy havo put him out of their calcu
InUons as a confirmed old bachelor, ono
fitted to ornament that sod and lonely stato.
It happens so with somo men. Bygcneral
consent thoy remain unmated until weary of
their singleness, unless at last, perhaps, ono
rushes Into tho arms of somo designing
woman, a disappointed creature, who takes
him capUvo out ot spite, or bocauso ho ls her
forlorn hope In her stranded condition. Bho
takes him becouso slio might do worse.
But a j'ouiij-j man of twenty-seven nvd
not glvo up hope. Thoro aro yet many
chances that ho will not bo permanently
relegated to tho ranks ot tho men whom
all Is can unver regard with anything liko
tcuder interest. His unsympathetic natuio
Is against him. Ho may bo lacking iu tho
ability to charm a woman, though ho suc
ceeds in not making himself really dl-ogree-ablo
to tho fair ones ho encounters.
Still, If ho tried to think moro about other
people and less about himself; If ho go--s
forth on his suraniT vacation to ono of Uio
many places In the oouutry which aro ciovvd
ed with lovely girls as a fabled wood with
fairies; if ho throws off his repellaut ronoivo,
and becomes as much as possible a simple
hearted young fellow, cordial, delicate, sym
pathetic, and trusUng, ho may cocapo from
tho gad fate which bcems to hang over him,
and which so naturally depresses his bplrlts.
But it is a bad sign when a young follow of
twenty-soveu cannot fall In lovo. No ono to
lovo lu bplte of tho fumlulno lovellues-j of
which examples are so multitudinous 1
Mako yourself lcally loved, younj friend,
and thou you will fall In lovo easily enough.

Just here a short chapter from ray own experience
may not be lnapropoa. Last year I tod my baby, as was
recommended by my physician, who la considered on
otonrbest, upon lisjle brand condensed mUk and oat
meal cruel.
All went well until July, when aha was three months
old At that time teething commenced, and the usual
srmptomsof summer complaint soon manifested them
selves The stereotyped advice from doctors, sisters,
cousins, and aunts was : " Keep ap with her usual food
that Is, the milk, drop the oatmeal, give ber medicine,
and take lier to the country," I waa told that when
calv es were allowed to bavo aU tha milk they would
take they become sleek and fat, and that the correct In
ference must be that the poor little baby, now anything
but "sleek and fat," mast, to become so, have milk every
time alio cried, every time she went to sleep, every time
she awakened, every time she waa thirsty In short, at
all Umes, day and night. My energies were U bent In
one direction, via,, toward ttlmulaUng and coaxing
the already unnatural appetite for Eagle brand, which I
have no doubt was simply oaussd by thirst. I took her
to the couutry, and during the five weeks we remained
there I did not know what It wa to have an hour's rest,
day or night crying, moaning, vomiting, and all tha
rest of It, poor baby, whose fault It wa not; poor
mamma, whose fault It waa. I continued to gorge th
child In this way to the extent ot an enUra can every
twenty 'our boors. No hardened wretch ever mora
zealously stuffed the unfortunate goose, desUoed for
raU it SoU grat I bronght her home from the country,
took her to Coney Island, but sea air could do nothing

After straining It and thinning It somewhat with cold

In Providence, It. I., thero has boon
lively discussion among the Methodist mlnltlsrs U I
ordaining women to the ministry. Most ot the bretbnst I
wer In favor ot licensing tbem to preach, but war- I
posed to ordaining them, so as to put them on a par with 1
men One minister made tho objection that a woman 1
could not, with any degre ot convenience, administer
baptism by Immersion. This wa looked on as very
fsrfetehei) argument, as Methodist do not, except la
rare Instancea, baptize by Immersion But a Baptist

different way, II said ha saw In It an Indication that

It Is a favorablo symptom In regard to II
the question f ministerial anpply and demand when a Ij
rcepecuvbl church which wants a minister has to ad- I
vertlso for one This 1c the case with St Paul s Eptseo- B
pal Church, Creslon, Iowa From the advsrtisemeut It Q
wociKI seem that the church Is situated In a very Far- I
dlse, with admirable surroundings, and a field of labor H
eufficl nt to keep a rector happy and busy. The adver- H
tlsement omits to mention how muoh salary it la pro-
posed to pa) the coming man Whether this ls to avoid u.
tho host of applicants who would be actuated by greed
if ltla 1-vrge, or to avoid the humiliation which would
