Her'tljtess Across the Deserts and Over the Great Oasis of Turkestan. A little east of the narrow tract now in dispute between Russia and Afghan istan is that extensive protuberance called by tho natives the Pamir, or the Roof of tho World. This wonderful pla teau, furrowed by deep valleys, through which flow tho head streams of great rivers, is the loftiest in tho world, and stretches away for some hundreds of miles from 10,000 to 15,000 feet above the sea. It is an elevated isthmus con necting those almost impassable moun tain systems of Asia, tho Thian Sban and Altai on the north, with tho Hindoo Koosh and Himalayas on tho south. Hero history places tho cradle of the European races. Here lived our Aryan forefathers, who, leaving tho Pamir slopes, followed great rivers westward, and finally pastured their herds in Eu rope. Hither are returning now their descendants, tiie Slavs and Celto-Sax-ons, sooner or later to contend for the supremacy of Asia upon the historic grounds from which their primitive pro genitors arc believed to have migrated. The Pamir sent its waters west to fer tilize the Turkestan desert, gave the nationB a passageway through mountain barriers along its streams that poured eastward into theTarim and southward into the Ganges and the Indus, nurtured the civilization that Genghis Khan and Tamerlane founded in Turkestan, and made possible the advance of Russia into Central Asia. Though Peter the Great dreamed of extending Russia's power far beyond tho Caspian, it Mas not greed of con quest or commerce, but the need of de fending herself against barbarous neigh bors across the Ural that first turned Russia toward Central Asia. Ivan III. put an end to the terrible Tartar inva sions that for centuries wasted half of Russia and laid its chief cities in ashes. Rut his successors did not free Russia from the pest of pillaging Kirghiz and Turcoman tribes until they established tho Muscovite power in the large terri tory between the Ural river and the Aral sea. They sank ells in the Ust Urt plateau to facilitate the operations of their army, marched against the tur bulent Kirghiz, and after several hard campaigns they subdued these 2,000,000 nomads, who for over 20 years have paid their conquerors without a murmur their annual tax of three rubles a tent. Beyond the Kirghiz steppes that bordered Russia stretched far eastward across the deBert two belts of verdure, through which flow two great rivers, the ancient Ozus and the Jaxartes, now known as the Amu-Daria and the Syr Daria. The ono rising on the southern and tho other on the northern slope of the Pamir, had for ages distributed over their banks alluvium borne on rapid tides to their headwaters, creating long and continuous oases in the midst of the most desolate desert of the world. Hero were rich lands and populous half-civilized nations. Here were the routes to inner Asia, caravan roads that led to China, tho highways over which great camel trains from Bokhara had for many years borne to Orenburg and Astrakhan tlielr loads of cotton, Bilk, skins and uha green leather to exenange for Russian hardware, chintz and guns. Here was a chance for vast expansion of Muscov ite power and commerce. Russia's mo tive was no longer self-protection, but tho subjugation of the khanates of Turk estan and the extension of trade. The three khanates are estimated to contain from 6,000,000 to 0,000,000 peo ple. Vambrey says that in tho richness of their soil and in tho variety of their productions it would be difficult to find in Europe a territory that would surpass tho oasis countries of Turkestan. Bok hara, ancient seat of Mohammedan learning, still attracts thousands of stu dents from India, Afghanistan, Cash mere and China. Tho town has 175 mosques, and when Vambery visited it 5000 students wore study ing theology, logic and philosophy in its 80 colleges. Tho chief cities of tho Khokand oasis, Tashkeiid, Tchemkent, Khodjend und others, aro scatterod along tho rich valley of tho Syr-Daria. Several thousand Russian and Cossack peasants havo, with gov ernmental assistance, becomo tillers of the soil near Tashkend and Samarcand. Tashkend has 100.000 population, 13 inns, 10 colleges and many mosques, j real men. Naturally sho fancies that sloner for tho purpose of settling dis and its exports and imports in 1878 her ideal men must bo somewhere, since putcs arising out of tho frontier question amounted to $24,000,000.

Both I these great rivera aro vnluablo artorics of trade, but tho Oxus, though tho fer tile lands along its banks aro not so ex tensive nor so populous as thoso along the Syr-Daria, is destined to bo commer cially the mora important stream. While tho Syr-Daria leads only toward the comparatively barbarous countries ot East Turkestan and Thibet, the Oxus vt ill carry tho freightage of Russia al most to the gates of India. It is evident to tho students of her progress in Cen tral Asia that Russia's commercial aims include not only a vast augmentation of hor overland trade with China, but tho opening of India to her products as the row art! of her long and, as yet, illyro quited sacrifices m Turkestan. Tho revenues from her new possessions as yet cover hardly a third of the annual expenditures. When Russia had conquered tho khan ates there was still hard work for her armies south of the Oxus, where largo tribes of wild Turcomans constantly menaced her enterprises, and blocked the way to Herat. Somo years after Khiva fell, Skobeleff and his Cossacks scattered tho Teke Turcomans, tho greatest slave hunters and most lawless nanuids who roamed the desert of Kara Kum. Last year the last stronghold of this tribe was occupied by Russian troops. It was the earth fort they were building in a bend of the Murghab river at Merve when O'Donovan visited them four years ago. Its ramparts, -15 feet hich and 00 feet wido at tho base, were speedily knocked to pieces, and Merve now forms part of the Russian Trans caspian province. Years before, Sir Henry Rawlinson, tho greatest author ity on Central Asia, had told the British government that "Herat is at the mercy of tho general who occupies Merve." But public opinion in England did not keep pace witli the march of events in Asia, and it was- not till the Russian forces had left the Merve oasis and received tho sub mission of the Turcomans south of Sarakhs that Great Britain awoke to the belief that the czar was threatening Herat and menacing India. New York Sun. A Woman Explains Why Men do not Marry. TNcw York Mail and Express. At a small party of w orkers and think ers a few nights ago, says a letter w rit cr in this city, I was in a group that dis cussed the distasto for marriage jvliich characterizes the girlhood of tho day. One young lady had fortified herself with a newspaper clipping on tho sub ject, which she drew from her pocket and read, as further substantiating her position. It was to the effect that husband-hunting maidens, young or old, were very much scarcer than of yore ; that instead of being anxious to marry, girls wero slow of inducement in that direction. "It is true," said the young lady. "I scarcely know a girl who wants to mar ry. They are learning something in the way of a profession, something that will interest them as well as support them, two roles in which husbands just now fail. The truth is, we are scared away from any desire to mar ry by seeing how wretched those who do marry are. Where would we look for husbands? Among tho 'snips' and 'sports' and characterless young men tliat till onr drawing rooms? lliey are insufferable as mere acquaintances or beaux ; who could contemplate them as husbands? I have always thought that if I could find a young man at all like my father I could love and marry him ; but that school of men has vanished from the younger ranks." Nobody doubts that she expressed the convictions of a large representation of young women. Their lack of interest in marriage is not due to the larger act ivities winch continually open before women, but to the unattractive, unrelia ble material in the way of husbands. Women are women, and would love and marry as readily to-day as when the world was new if thoy came in contact with men trho arouaod tlifir respect and admiration. The order of maidenhood that could content itself with an inferior article of husband, merely for the sake of being married, lias also vanished. The young woman of the period has too much character and self-respect to dread being an old maid so much that she would contract an uncongenial union to escape it. Tho same evening I had a chat with rny bright young hostess about ineffi cient men, a sort of annex to tho con versation just recorded. She wondered what would becomo of the human raco if the men kept 011 deteriorating at tho rate of the last 20 years. She declared it was almost exceptional for tho young men of first-class society to support their wives. They married into rich families, and at tho end of two or three years wero pensioners on the relations of their wives. "It is astonishing," she said, "how few young women who aro sup posed to bo rich really depend upon their husbands for luxuries or even sup port. Their fathers orgrandfathers fur- nisi, the money that supplies their homes oftener than tho outside world ; Knows 01, inueea, tue daughter of tho, frontior is nssuminK alarming propor rich man is more to bo pitied than the 1 tions.

I asked, "Alarmingly, and in all ranks of soci ety, but most among the rich. I scarce ly know a married woman intimatoly who feels secure who has confidence In her husband's energy, nbillty and efficiency. Look at tho number of mar ried women engaged In somo kind of business!

Army and Navy Journal. Story of a Love Letter in a Bottle. A sea captain related to a Boston re porter that, June 4, 1831, the schoonor R. Bowers, Capt. Thompson, bound to Gloucester from Messina, was pitching about in a long ocean swell in latitude 42 deg. 40 min., long. CO dcg. 47 min. They had made a good run thus far, but on this particular day struck a dead calm. There was little to do, except to watch tho vessel and whistle for wind, and several schemes were invented by the officers to pass away the time. Cruik8hank, the second mate of the schooner, had left a sweetheart at homo, and naturally his mind drifted across the watery waste to her bright eyes. Noticing his preoccupied manner, tho captain's wife suggested that he send his love a message from the sea. The idea seemed a good one. He wrote a note, inclosed it in an envelope, ad dressed it to to the young lady at Big Brook, Cape Breton, inclosed tho wholo in a bottle, and threw it overboard. There was great speculation at the time as to wliero the bottle would bring up ; but in a few hours a brcezo sprung up and, in working the vessel, all thoughts of the bottle and its contents wero for gotten. Tho schooner in due time ar rived in Gloucester, and Cruikshank started for Capo Breton. His arrival was expected, but his astonishment may be imagined when his lady-love brought forth the identical bottle which the mato had thrown into tho sea, and produced the noto contained therein. The story of the drift was a singular one. It had been picked up on the shores of Little Dover bay, on the east end of Nova Sco tia, after a drift of 41 days, and tho finder sent it to the young lady. An other singular circumstance connected with the finding of the bottle was the fact that tho finder turned out to be a near relative of Cruikshank, although they never had seen each other. The Afghans havo been tho theme for some past, but little has been said regarding their arms. Tho Afghan matchlock or jazail has no parallel as a firearm on tho faco of tho earth. It is about nine feet long, and is fitted near the muzzle with a prong which sup ports it on the earth when it is about to be fired off. It is fitted with a liowder can and a catch for holding a fuse, and, therefore, he is by no means a certain shot. During the last Afghan war it used to bo a joke among tho British sol diers, that an Afghan would poiso his jazail upon a rock, calculate when his enemy would be likely to arrive in front of his muzzle, fix his fuse, and then go off to some little distance and sit down and smoke. If the enemy nrrived in front of tho matchlock just as it went off, why then ho would most likely bo killed ; but if ho didn't and tho weapon went off a quarter of an hour after he had passed it, then no harm was done, and its owner would philosophically set tho jazail again in hopes of catching the next comer, and then go off to his rock, smoko and await developments. Secretary Manning has given direc tions to stop tho issue of $1 and 2 notes, withaviow of forcing into circulation the silver dollars anil subsidiary coins. Treasurer Jordan is in entire sympathy with this policy and will endeavor to make it a success. Ho is firmly con vinced that tho stoppage, of $1 and $2 bills would bring into circulation small silver coins. Tho trouble has been that small silver coins havo flowed into the banks, only to bu forwarded to Wash- 1 ington for redemption. When tho banks discover that they cannot get f 1 and $2 notes at Washington, they will pay out small silver, of which about $32,000,000 of tho $50,000,000 coinage remains in tho treasury.

M. O. Russell of Lake City, Lonlsl nnn. has been appointed agent of tho British government to engage a number of river pilots for service on tlio nno. Several northwestern pilots entered that service last year, and wero so much more satisfactory than any pilots tho novernnient had ever engaged that Rus sell has been deputized to import a dozen more. Ho Iwh already secured tho sor vkvsofslx. Thoy will bo paid K0 a month and all expenses from tho ttiuo they leave America until thoy return. Tho timo of service Is 0110 year, tho gov ernment reserving tho right to extend to 18 months. Thoy are to run on transport steamers on tho Nile, 11 num ber of which aro building, similar to the Mississippi river steamers. Postmaster General Vilas has inform ed democratic congressmen that whore there aro several applicants for a jnwt office tho candidate considered most fit must be so designated by tlio member from tho district. Many representatives, not caring to incur enmities, havo taken tho safe course of indorsing all tho ap plicants as good, leaving to tho depart ment tho responsibility of making tho selection. Vilas says this is a resjionsi billtythat ho does not propose to an' sume and that unless congressmen de sicnate their selections thoy need not call upon him to make changes. Speaking of the election of a republi can stato senator in a democratic district of Illinois lately, a Washington social says: Tho fact is not to he disguised, despito all explanations which havo been made, that the democrats aro not satisfied with tiro course of thoadminis tration at Washington. They saw lead inc republican ollico-holders, somo of them whose terms had expired, manag ing tho recent election in tho interest of Logan, and openly defying all rules laid down by tho president relating to tho civil sorvice. Tho United Slates supremo court has decided that Tennessee as well as Vir ginia must pay her debts. Tho technical issues in the two cases were different, but the Kcneral effect is the same that a stato that Issues bonds is liable to the bondholders for the payment of interest and principal on them, and cannot re pudiate the indebtedness by subsequent legislation. Government clerks buy more tickets in tho Louisiana lottery than any other class of people. It is said that about $20,000 por month go into the coffers of tho oily Dauphin of New Orleans from clerks in various departments.
