One thing that will make the change easier and vastly mqre rapid is, that no people that there is any knowledge of have ever been more strict in obedience to law. What they hayedone is cruelty to people not Moslems, they hay,e ,found authority Cor in their laws, and, in great measure, in their religion. In dealing with each other exact justice has always been the rule, and with, the concession in their new code to foreigners, we look for progress and peace.

The Dark Days of the War IN Scribner's for February, is a story of the conference of President Lincoln and his cabinet at midnight, when the ques tion was, how to relieve General Rosecrans, who, after the battle of Chickamaugua, was practically bottled up and in great danger. It was Secretary Stanton's idea to withdraw 25,000 men from the army of the Potomac and rush them across the Alleghanies to Rosecrans' support. He thought it might be done in five days and told the meeting he had consulted with the foremost railroad man in the country, and believed it was the quickest way and the only practical way to extend the relief needed. Mr. Lincoln did not believe In it, neither did General Halleck, but Secretary Seward came to the support of Stanton, Chase joined in and the order was issued next morning, and that famous railroad feat of transporting 25,000 men across the Alleghanies from Washington to Nashville in four days was performed by that prince of rail road men, Thomas Scott. The story is prepared from Secretary Chase's papers, but it makes one almost tremble to read the account through, and to understand how Presi dent Lincoln was involved by the advisers around him, and it is clear that Secretary Chase felt all the timo that he was not enough appreciated. He complains in letter after letter that he Ts not .enough consulted, and there is a remark by Mont gomery Blair that he believed Chase was the only man that Lincoln ever hated. The close of the story is how disappointed and vexed all were in Washington that Meade permit ted Lee to escape after Gettysburg. There is a story that Meade called a counsel of his officers, that Slocum, Sedgwick, French and one or two more opposed the advance, when Howard, Wads worth and Pleasanton warmly urged that the lemnant of Lee's army be pursued and a battle be given. The same day that the news came that Leo had escaped across the Potomac, a bogus dispatch ramo that Grant had been defeated and his army captmed at Jackson, Miss., and Chase is made to say, "I then told him (the president) that dav light always came before darkness and that ua we had to do was to gather new forces and per severe." Those were very trying days, notwithstanding that Gettysburg had been won, and though they did not know it at the time, instead of being cap tured, Giant had captured Vicksburg and Its gar rison.
