How the New Sultan Lives.
HIS HOURS, HABITS, AND INTIMATES
AFTER-DINNER TALKS FONDNESS
FOE MUSIC.
Tho Pall Mall Gazette says: The Sul
tan leads a quiet and orderly life; is
systematic in his habits, and takes care
of his health. He retires early, gener
ally before eleven o'clock; and by six in
the morning he is in his library or cabi
net de iravil (a fact of which I myself am
a frequent witness) , where he spends
the greater part of the day. Here he
receives the papers sent to him from the
Porte; all of these he reads carefully
his uncle never did and never signs
one until ho thoroughly understands
its purport. Among the people he likes
to see are George Zariff, the banker,
and Hobart Pasha. With the former, a
shrewd old man of seventy, well versed
in matters of public interest, he talks by
the hour as to what may be done to im
prove the state of the country. With
tho admiral his relations are moro con
fidential ; he makes him the channel of
his unofficial intercourse with our em
bassy. In the evening the Sultan frequently
asks one or more of the ministers to
dine at the palace, and after they have
dined, engages them in conversation on
public affairs, which are often protract
ed to a late hour. The day before yes
terday Safvet Pasha mentioned to me
casually in conversation that on the
previous Sunday evening the Sultan
had thus detained him in a tete-a-tete
colloquy which lasted for three hours,
llecently.too, Ed hem, Djevdet, and Iled
if Pashas passed the whole evening with
the Sultan, discussing public affairs.
Again, Ali Pash, lately recalled irom
his miserable governorship of Mostarto
be Vali of Adrianople the Ali who pre
ceded Sadyk as ambassador at Paris
had a long interview with the Sultan
before going to his new post. In this
interview the 6ultan cross-questioned
him very closely regarding the causes
of provincial maladministration. Ali
Pasha explained to him the vice of the
whole system, tho Sultan listening with
marked attention. In taking leave of
Ali, tho Sultan requested him to come
to Constantinople once a month in or
der to confer with him on provincial af
airs. Another person who has lately
seen the Sultan, is Thotiades Bey, the
Ottoman minister at Athens, who says
that the Sultan asked him a number of
very sensible questions about Greek
politics, and tho social and industrial
condition of Greese as compared with
that of Turkey. All these men, who
have lately seen tho Sultan, bear witness
to the soundness of his bodily health
and of his mental powers. No one says
he is a great genius, but all agree that
he is modest, intelligent, eager for in
formation, and greatly interested in the
affairs of the empire.
As regards amusements, I learn that
he inherits his father's fondness for
music, and that ho has a "turn" for me
chanics. Taul Dussap wa3 the music
master of his boyhood, and he it is who
conducts the Suitan's musical evenings.
I asked J), how these evenings were
passed (unless tho Sultan is very busy
there is always music), and he replied:
"The Sultan likes the piano with string
ed quatuor; after playing a few pieces
thus arranged, he generally asks me to
sing, -and then he talks of music. He
likes the quaint wildness which belongs
to Turkish music and to its more civi
lized Hungarian brother. At his re
quest I composed a march for him, in
which he particularly wished to have
the rythm of the 'Marseillaise' com
bined with the characteristic modula
tions of Turkish and Hungarian music.
He told mo to keep it as much like his
father's own march as I could." Dus
sap played the-march to me, adding that
the Sultan had mado several little
ehanges before authorizing him to have
it scored for the full orchestra. These
little matters, wholly unimportant in
themselves, help to throw light upon
this question, and give tin insight into
the Sultan's mode of life.
lie ii Who Live L0113;.
. Huf eland, public lecturer at Jena,
who published a work on longevity in
the last century, thus describes the sort
of man who has the best prospect of
long life: He has a well proportioned
stature, without, however, being too
tall. He is rather of the middle size,
and somewhat thickset. His complex
ion is not too florid at any rate, too
much ruddiness in youth i3 seldom a
sign of longevity. Hair approaches
rather to the fair than to the black; his
skin is strong, but not rough. His
head is not too big. He has large veins
at the extremities, and his shoulders are
rather round than flat; his neck is not
too long, his belly does not project, and
hi3 hands aro large but not too deeply
cleft. His foot is rather thick than
long, and his legs are firm and round.
He has a broad chest and strong voice,
and the faculty of retaining his breath
for a long time without difficulty. In
general there is complete harmony m
all his parts. His senses are good, but
not too delicate; his pulse is slow and
regular. His appetite is good, and his
digestion easy. He has not too much
thirst, which is always a sign of rapid
self-consumption. His passions never
become too violent or destructive. If
he gives way to anger, he experiences a
glow of warmth without an overflowing
of the gall. He likes employment,
particularly calm meditation and agree
able speculation; is an optimist, a friend
to nature and domestic felicity; has no
thirst after either honors or riches, and
banishes all thought of to-morrow.
Tnii Blue Glass Fraud: But really,
what do you think of Pleasonton and
the blue glass cure? is now the obtru
sive question. Well, we think that the
man is a pestilent ignoramus, and his
book the ghastilest rubbish that has
been printed in a hundred years. He
may be entirely honest, but this is no
reason why we should give attention to
his egregious folly. Pleasonton, how
over, it must be confessed, serves one
important function: he gauges for us the
depth and density of American stupid
ity. De Morgan says, somewhere, that
certain men appear occasionally to play
the part of 'foolmeters" in the" commu
nity, that is, to measure the number
and quality of the fools furnished by
any given state of society. Pleasonton'
has done this for us with an accuracy
that leaves nothing to be desire J. W

The Russian Empire.
ITS EXTENT, POPULATION AND ARMY.
It is calculated that the empire of the
Czar extends over one-seventh of the
land surface of the globe and represents
about one twenty-sixth of it3 entire su
perficial area. It is difficult to arrive at
the true area of Bussia, on account of
the obstacles that present themselves to
the making of a general survey of such
an immense extent of country. The
nearest estimate, because it was deemed
the most accurate, was made in 1874,
whereby the area of the empire was set
down at 8,401,707 square miles. It is
divided into two sections, the European
and Asiatic, the former having an area
of about SG,03!) square miles, and a pop
ulation of G3,05SJ34. This does not
include either the kingdom of Poland,
the grand duchy of Finland or the
Caucasian provinces. The population
of Russian Poland is 5,705.007 and its
area 2,216 square miles. Finland has
1,843,245 inhabitants and an area of
6,835 square miles, and the Caucasus
4,661,824 inhabitants andis 7,938 square
miles in area. Bussia in Asia has an es
timated population of C,302,412, but
these inhabitants belong chiefly to the
Nomadic tribes,
The population of Bussia is divided
into three great groups, besides a varie
ty of national elements intermixed in
tho general mass of the inhabitants.
The Great llussians, or Veliko lluss,
number 35,000,000 and occupy the
provinces. Tho Little llussians, or
Malo Rhus, number about 11,000,000,
and from the bulk of the population in
Pnltava, Kharkof , Chernigof , Kief, Yol
hynia. -Podolsk, Ekaterinoslaf and tho
Laurida. The white llussians, about
3,000,000 in number, are found in Mont
lef, Minsk; Vitebsk and Grodno. With
these groups are tho Finns, 3,038,000;
Lithuanians, 2,343,000; Jews, 1,631,000;
Tartars, 2,500,000; Slavonians in Poland
and Lithuania, about 7,000,000, and
Armenians, 2,000,000.
From the above described population
is drawn the regular army of the Rus
sian empire. The armed force of Bus
sia is composed of an active and a terri
torial army. The first is divided into
tho land and marine forces. Tho land
force comprises the regular troops an
nually recruited throughout the coun
try; the regulars intended to complete
tho strength of the army to a war foot
ing and composed of men on leave; the
irregular troops, such as the Cossacks
and the troop3 composed of foreign
elements.
Tho territorial army is formed by all
the male inhabitants of the empire, be
tween the ages of twenty and forty, who
are lit for military service and not al
ready enrolled in the active or regular
army. By a law of January 13, 1874,
the military service is rendered obliga
tory on all Bussian subjects, except in
some of the most isolated districts of
Siberia, Turkestan and tho transcaucas
ian territory. Exceptions are, however,
made in favor of certain professions,
such as clergymen, doctors, etc. Tho
duration of service in European Bussia
is fixed at lifteen years that is, six
years in the active army and nine in tho
reserves. In Asiatic Bussia the term of
service is limited to ten years, seven of
Avhich are spent in the active army and
three in the reserves.
Utilizing Niagara.
A letter has recently been addressed
to the Governor-General of Canada by
Mr. Horace H. Day, a gentleman who
owns the American side of Niagara
Falls, on which bide the water exceeds
that of the Canadian fall. Mr. Day
recommends the utilization of this vast
water power by the establishment there
of manufactories for spinning and weav
ing cotton cloth. When our ship
canals, and eventually the Pacific Bail
way, are completed, says the Ottawa
Free Press, tho subject of cheap pro
duction may have a measure of interest
to our manufacturers not now even
thought of. The chief points of Mr.
Day's scheme aro the following; and
should his ideas as yet fail to be appre
ciated, we may recall to mind George
Stejihenson, fighting his railway enter
prise through amid the ridicule of Par
liament and people, and Mr. Muntz
going humbly from one ship owner of
London to another, vainly asking per
mission to apply, at his own expense, a
coat of his metal to the bottoms of their
ships:
1. The formation of compressed air,
by means of the water power, and its ap
pliance to drive the machinery of cotton
factories, placed where convenient, the
air being conveyed in pipes and applied
to the common steam engine.
2. The manufacture, by this means,
of cotton cloth, so near to the producing
points of the raw cotton and of the food
staples, as materially to lessen the cost
of production.
3. The loading and unloading of ves
sels by means of the same cheap hy
draulic power, the only expense of
which is, of course, the erection of tho
apparatus.
4. The gray cotton cloth being so
manufactured, its transportation (when
the canals are enlarged) in sea-going
vessels, direct from the point of produc
tion to England, there to undergo the
finishing processes of bleaching and
printing, and to be thence distributed
to the markets of the world.
Giving In. A story is told of two
worth' New England "deacons between
whom a bitter feud had long existed
concerning some contested point.
Neither would yield, and the matter
threatened to bo handed down to the
next generation, when one day Deacon
Smith appeared before his old enemy
and solemnly said: "Brother Jones, it
is a shame-that this quarrel of ours
should bring scandal upon the church.
I have prayed earnestly for guidance in
the matter, and have come to the con
clusion that you must give in, for I can
not." The Becorder's Watch. Sir John
Sylvester, the Becorder of London,
was one day robbed of his watch by a
thief whom ho tried at the Old Bailey
for petty larceny. During the trial, Sir
John happened to say, fcloud, that he
forgot to bring his watch with him.
The thief being acquitted for want of
evidence, went with the Becorder's love
to Lady Silvester, and requested that
she would immediately send his watch
to him by a constable he had ordered to
fetch it. The lie succeded, and the
thief got the watch.

Tli lelris of the System
Must either pass through its natural
channels -of exit, the bowels, tho kidneys and
the pores, or, in default thereof, poison and dis
order the fluids of the system. In order to ef
fect the complete expulsion of this dangerous
refuse, the organs through which it passes off
must be active and unobstructed. Fortunately
there is a certain means of rendering them so
when they are not. Hos tetter's Stomach Bit
ters stimulate the .action of tho txcretory or
gans, and by diffusing a genial warmth through
the circulation, encourage moderate perspira
tion. By this triple effect the exodus of the foe
cal and other waste matters are encouraged,
and the system freed from peril it would other
wise inciir. The action of the bowels which
follows the use of this beniiicent alterative is
easy and unaccompanied by griping, and its
stimulative effect upon the urinary organs very
conducive to their local health.
