The PresentExtent of the King
doni of Greece. ,

ROBERT P. KEEP, in Harper’s Magazine for J an
The award of the Berlin Conference, agreed
to a little more than a year ago, assigned to
Greece an increase of territory equal to four
seventh of her area, and the fertility of the
Thessalian plain, as a whole, far exccds that
of any equal number of acres in the Hellenic
Kingdom. The added population would be
some 600,000—about onc-thi.d of the popu-
lation'of; Greece according to the last census.
After this decision the policy of Turkey.
was one of expostulation and delay. Well
aware of the difficulty of maintaining a “Eu-
ropean concert” among six powers with inter—
ests so diverse, the Porto reasoned that the
carrying into effect of the decision of the
Conference would be easily frustrated could
its execution be delayed. Accordingly all
the resources of diplomacy—an art in which
the Turkish government has no superior—-
were directed toward postponement. These
efforts were in a mesuro successful, for Aus-
tria, France and Germany indicated a willing-

WHAT DR. FULTON SAYS.

Rev. Dr. Fulton, when appealed to for an
expression of his opinion on the question at
issue between Drs. Crosby and Cuyler, em-
phatically sided with the latter. He said
that Dr Crosby, in vindicating the partial
and moderate use of wines and liquors, had
made the mistake of his life in supposing
that it is safe for‘any one to partake of the
social bowl even in the manner prescribed by
Dr. Crosby. There are a thousand people
in his church, Dr. Fulton said, who cannot
venture to take a sip of wine or even inhale

tempting influence. The juice of the grape
is used at the communion table of his church
as it was used at the Passover feast. It was
worse than folly for Dr. Ci‘Osliy to maintain

tioned in the Scriptures, while it is well

A TRUE INCIDENT. ,

BY MRS. FINDLEY BRADEN .

 

[The following was inspired from looking
upon a crayon portrait executed by our Nor-
walx artist, Mrs. Loaisa Merrill—Ens. GA-

zarrnJ

We had come to pass the evening with some
newly—made friends in the pretty inland town
of Monroe.

On entering the little, well-kept parlor,our
gaze was involuntarily fastened upon a bean-
tiful crayon which adorned the opposite wall.
Such a face! Never before had we seen its
equal. Great dark eyes, holding in their
depths some nameless yearning; a high,open
brow, with jetty waves of hair carelessly
flung backward; full rosy lips with love's
passionate kiss perhaps still fresh upon them;
a dainty, pearl-white neck, and almost per.
feet features—these formed a picture never
to be forgotten.

“ Who is it ? ” was asked, breathlessly.

Our host's kind, genial face, took on a
troubled look. “That is my poor, dead sis-
ter Flora,” he answered, with a nervous, up-
ward glancc. “ She died last July.”

And that was all. A lost one’s hallowed
name had been spoken. It. was followed by a
bush too sacred to be idly broken.

Rallying, the evening was spent in pleasant
converse, to which music also lent its charm.
But ever and shoe, our admiring eyes wan-
dered back to that silent picture upon the
wall. '

Later, the sad little story was given us.
It held nothing uncommon. Only a bright,
happy young life that had suddenly vanished
into darkness.

Flora Hollister. That fair, girlish name is
new graven upon a burial-stone in some quiet
little churchyard. Yet we love to dwell
upon it. Wholly unknown to fame, you,
reader, have never before heard it. Perhaps
this is the only time it ever appeared in
print. The years of its pure, gentle owuer,
were but twenty-two. Only the Morning of
life! Noon, with its scorching suns, and
Night with its many black shadows,were not
for her. .

“ Flora was a good girl," said one who
knew. Ah, what an epitaph 1 Simply
good, yet the Father saw and was well.

ased.

‘aw tones they also told of a tender,
art far out in distant Nebraska. It
.ng tc—night, for henceforth Robert
.ks must ever be alone. Flora Hollister’s
‘ .seinating face was the one he had blindly
chosen to grace his often dreamed of future
home. Was it not a bitter awakening, to
win and then lose all? No happy bridal com..
pleted that fair little life-poem. Its rythm
was marred by a funeral pail. Grim,loveless
death gave a shroud for the wedding garment,
and mockingly extended the grave’s cold arms

for love’s endearing embrace. ;

And God saw it all. Yet His chastcn-
ing hand was not staid. He knew that all
was Well. '

till, there can be nothing sadder than an
engagement broken by‘death. True love is
so sweet. It holds so may eager, unselfish
anticipations, and promises to each a speedy
and happy fulfillment. Disappointment in-
stead is then doubly cruel. And when the
stricken ones murmur not,~how beautiful it
is!
Perhaps in pity, a record is kept
Of all the fond hearts parted here ;
And after the long. long sleep they’ll be,
United in a sunnicr sphere.

Surely the names of Robert Brooks and
Flora Hollistcr are preserved in that, record.
Not parted for all time. A meeting willcome
by and by. ‘

Death is not wholly unkind. In his dalk
domain the young remain younger ever,while
we rapidly grow aged mourning their early
loss. They are at rest, we far out at sea with
life’s waves running high, and threatening
each moment to engulf us. An, thrice bless-
ed are those o’er whom we can write, “ Died

Young.”

Oncé more we are standing before the
bright young face that has so charmed us.
It is a last look, for we shall never see it
again; but itsmemory will follow us through
life.
Beautiful eyes now closed in death.
Pink-tinted cheeks turned ashv pale,
Iiipe ruby lips now gray and cold,
This is all that tells the sweet talc.
Beautiful picture. long wilt thou hang
In place, on that lonely brother ’s wall,

Danbury, Conn., Oct. 12, 1881.
—-—-——

The New York Herald of Sunday publish-
ed an article entitled “ Where shall a poor-
man go to church," which might be taken
home to many here with good resuls. It
Bays, “That there are two places in the
world where the most insignificant
man has a right to consider himself as good
as any one else-the ballot box and the
church. Any one who attempts to persuade
him to the contrary insults him.” It added,
“Let no one imagine that empty churches
Signify that religious feeling is in its deca-
dence. Some churches are empty because
they were started by exclusive sets. Others
have a beggarly array of empty benches be—
cause the pulpit lacks brains,;spirituality, or
both. Still others are poorly attended because
their pastors are so intent on turning doctrin-
al molehills into mountains that they have no
time which to distribute the bread of life.
If the organizers of churches want no one
among them but those who can help pay
expenses, how much do they really care to
spread the Gospel.” ‘

 

Records of' Ancient Egypt.

M. Maspero has opened some pyramids at
Sakkara, enclosing the tombs of the kings of
the fifth dynasty. The mortuary chapels'of
each contain about eighty square metres of
the smallest and most closely written texts,
giving precise details of the religious belief
of that age. It is a complete coup de grace
to Osiris. The Masonic theory and all pre-
vious conceptions are entirely upset. Except
the finding of the Rosetta stone in 1799 no
discovery in Egypt equals this in scientific
value. The entrance passage is difficult and
dangerous on account of themloose blocks
that encumber it. An American Egyptolo-
gist and a newspaper correspondent were the
only persons allowed to visit the interior with
Maspero. The latter explorer returns to
Paris next month and will publish the dis-
covered texts. Ali the Sakkara pyramids,
about sixty in number. will be opened as

soon as possible.

Greece has gained more by this conclusion
of the matter than might at first appear. She
has, too, escaped great dangers. An army of
60,000 men, the largest force she has ever
raised, had been rccruited,and was ready last
spring to proceed to the occupation of the ter-
ritory assigned to her by the Berlin Confer-
ence. But the European concert had come

to an end, and it was impossible to tell what

consequences might ensue from a collision

precipitated in the Greek peninsula without

the full support of the European powers.

Hence England plainly informed Greece that

she would give her no support if she involv-
ed herself in a war with Turkey. Any one

who reflects that the Greek soldiery have
never faced fire,and that there is no reason to
expect great ability in leadership from Greek

officers, will see that a general engagement

with Turkish troops schooled in the recent
war with Russia could have resulted in noth-
ing else than a crushing defeat for Greece.

Greece is too small to win, or to hope to win
in any single-handed struggle with Turkey,

moribund though the latter be. She did well
therefore to heed the caution of England;

and although she was declared at the time by

enthusiastic philhellcnes, and. even by so

kind and wise a friend as the London Specta-
tor, to have missed her opportunity, she did
well to hold back. And she may be no less
thankful that she is succeeding in quietly
reducing her army, and that no outbreaks on

the frontier and no cases of brigandage are
reported. 0n the whole, she has passed
through a dangerous crisis with credit. Every
one recognizes that Turkish sway, and even

Turkish foot-hold in Europe, must in a few
years he a thing of the past. As soon as the
utter collapse comes, the question will arise,
To how much territory is Greece entitled?
Then the decision that was made in accord-
ance with considerations of topography, eth-
nography and religion, and was unanimously
concurred in by representatives of six great
powers, will be remembered. The adminis-
tration of the territory which Greece has
just received will, we may hope,be sufficient-
ly creditable to justify her claim to assume
he entire area awarded to her id 1880,which

I doubt not will be given her. ‘ Crete is al-
ready practically concedcd to Greece—has
been several times conditionally offered by
the Ports. It has been stated that Eng-
land would not be unwilling to cede Cyprus.
The annexation of Cyprus, the remotest of
the Greek islands, would naturally carry
with it that of all the islands of the IEgean.
Thessaly and Epirus. the early cradles of the
Greek race, Cyprus and Crete, and the lesser
islands, furnish as large an added domain as
Greece need aSpire to. Whether such de-
pendencies should be held by a looser or by
a firmer tie, the circumstances of each case
would decide.

In some respects Greece is not well prepar-
ed to assume the management of a large added
territory. The Greek Kingdom presents the
anomaly of a constitution exceedingly deme-
cratic, but an administration highly centraliz-
ed. The constitution was the result of the
revolution of 1846 and 1861. The adminis-
tration is a legacy of King Otho and his Ba-
varian advisers. Such an administration can
be neither efficient nor economical. A grad—
ual decentralization, then, is the thing to be
desired. Nor need the possibility of this be
doubted. No trait of the Greek character is
more conspicuous, in both ancient and mod-
ern times, than the strength of local attach-
ment. This is attested by the multitude of
schools founded in different parts of Greece,
and amid the Greek population of Turkey,
by Greeks who, having left their native town
in youth, have devoted to it a part of the
wealth acquired in foreign lands. Evidently
love for the native locality, pride in it, wil-
lingness to labor and sacrifice for it, are the
elements of true public spirit, and the found-
ations of a prosperous village life. The dif-
ficulty with the present system of adminis-
tration is two-fold : First, local magistrates
have not sufficient independence of action,
and second, they are not responsible to the
towns in which they perform their duties.
But these defects can easily be corrected.
They are not. connected with the name of the
government. They can readily be eliminated
while Greece remains amonarchy; they might
remain though she became a republic. The
King of Greece has conducted himself with
much discreticn, and, democratic in feeling
as the people are, they recognize the advan-
tage of having a nominal head of the state
who is placed above the envy and intrigue
which are so rife at Athens. The King un-
derstands the people well, has shown perfect
loyalty to the constitution, and would place
no abstraction in the way of needed reforms
in administration. The Swiss Confederation
furnish a good example of what such reforms

The First American Dentist.

It seems that Rhode Island had the honor
of starting in life the first American dentist.
As far as known the first dentist in this
country was Josiah Flagg. He held a
major’s commission in the American army.
and began to practice dentistry at the close
.of the war in 1732. An officer under Count
Rochambcau taught Flagg while the two
armies were quartered in this State in 1781.
Liter be practiced in Boston, and during the
war of 1812 he was taken prisoner to Eng-
lands, and while on parole made the acquain-
tance of Sir Estiey Cooper, and worked
with him in Guy‘s Hospital. The second
dentist in this country was J amcs Gardette,
who came to this country with the French
fleet in 1778. He resigned his commission.
as surgeon and settled in this country. When
Richambeau was in this State, Gardetto
served him professionally in Newport. The
‘ third American dentist, although not nur-
tured on Rhodc Isiond soil, may be ment-
ioned because he was third in the line and
because he was Washington’s dentist, and
further, because he wore as a watch-charm
Washington’s last natural tooth. G Wash-
ington thought well enough of this dentist to
write him aletter, in which he said that he
should prefer his services to all others if he
had occasion to call upon:them——Provz'dence
Journal.

The venerable bishop of Kentucky and pre-
siding bishop of the Protestant Episcopal
church, Dr. Benjamin Bosw'orth Smith,
passed, October 31, the forty-ninth an niver-
sary of his Episcopal consecration. He is
the only bishop living who was consecrated

by Bishop White, whom he exceeds in the
years of his episcopate. Bishop Smith is the

blasphemy.

the traffic in any way.

had a good deal of sympathy for what Dr.
Crosby said about temperance societies. To
a great extent there had been too much talk-
ing among these people and too little effect-
ive and practical work. He should like to
see legislation take hold of the liquor busi-
ness and keep it within well-defined and pre
scribed limits; but he despaired of politicians
taking any part that would tend to restrict

CHANGES IN THE LAW.

He, as well as Dr. Crosby, would be in
sympathy with a movementihat would intro-
duce the excise system that prevails in Cans-
da, where the rum shops are closed at six
o’clock every Saturday evening and are not
opened till tllc following Monday morning.
He would like to join Dr. Crosby in bringing
about a change in the liquor law like that.
Last Saturday while riding in a street car he
had for fellow flosscngers six intelligent look-
ing and well dressed men, all of whom were
under the influence of liquor, having, no
doubt, stopped at the nearest dram shop to
spend a part of their week’s wages in “ treat-
ing" one another to the vile liquor sold in
such places. But while he would favor any
scheme that would abate the evil, he was
himself a stanch prohibitionist, and believed
only in the permanent efficacy of total absti-
nence. He did think, however, that the to-
tal abstinence people spend a great deal of
their time and energies in schemes which
produce very little practical benefit to the
cause they espouse.

In place of Christ doing anything to en-
courage drinkiug when He turned water into
wine at the marriage feast He merelyfiashed
his presence on the assemblage by perform-
ing the miracle in the manner described.
Therefore for Dr. Crosby to say that Jesus
Christ himself drank wine and encouraged
the drinking of it in others was to go through
the slumsof New York and proclaim to tip
piers and drunkards that they were only
doing what better people were practising,
and following an example set them by the
Saviour. He hoped that God will raise up
men that will stand up against this terrible
doctrine. The only way to suppress this
craving for intoxicating beverages was to
remove the cause of the temptation alto-
gether out of the path of the people, who
are predisposed to such vicious indulgences.

THE DANGER OF THE WINE 0UP.

It is not two years ago, Dr. Fulton said,
since he was invited to preach in a certain
church in Jersey City. While in the com-
pany of the pastor he noticed that the latter’s
breath smelled of wine. He confessed that
he had in obedience to St. Paul’s injunction
to Timothy taken “a little wine for his
stomach’s sake.” He was a most brilliant
scholar and in every sense an ornament to
the church. But he had gone on from small
beginnings till he had broken down the bar-
riers of prudence and discretion one by one.
and the end was not far off. He had min-
istered to his own damnation. He was soon
reduced to a mental and physical Wreck and
went to San Francisco. Three weeks ago
this unfortunate man called on Dr. Fulton
begging for $5 to get his overcoat out of
pawn. For months previously he had been
sleeping in the very lowest and cheapest of
lodging houses in New York. Hundreds of
other cases could be cited, Dr. Fulton said,
were it not work of supcrerogation. He did
not think that any one was so inexperienced
with the habits of man not to perceive the
danger that lurked in the wine cup. The
only safeguard to be found against its pollut-
ing power was to let it severely and entirely
alone, and not by homoeopathatic and infre-
quent doses at the beginning to familiaiize
one's system and constitution. with its stimu-
lating sway, and in that manner lay the
foundation for a life of misery, degredztion
and ruin. There should be no compromise
tolerated with such a poisonous habit. A
man should not tempt fate, and those who
would lead abstemious lives should put the
wine cup out of sight and out of mind com-
pletely and forever. '

once.

It is unhealthy to wear your boots in the
house after one o'clock a. m. The common
plan is to remove them in the hallway, but
many of our most experienced husbands pre-
fer the front steps. Always take a boot in
each hand when going up stairs. This gives
you two shots at the out after stepping on
her. Never say anything to your wife on
these occasions except “ yes ” and “ no."
Eating cloves impedes the speech.

Never compel your wife to get up first and
build the fire. If she doesn’t do it of herown
accord, go to sleep again.

When your daughter gets big enough to
have gentlemen visitors, give up the parlor
to them cheerfully. It is much cheaper to
let the dog'bitc them as they start for home
than to scold the girl until she cries, and then
have to buy her a sealskin sacque as a souv-
enir of your idiocy.

Always remember your wedding day, and
try to mark the occasion by some little not
showing that. you remember it. Coming
home half full will often signalize the anni-
versary in a marked but inexpensive manner.

Bring your sons up to some occupation that
will enable them to get a living when thrown
upon their own resources. Nothing makes a
young man so self-reliant as having a trade
of his own. In Cincinnati,bunko steerers fre-
quently make $100 a day—Chicago Tribune.

 

Miss Van Zandt.

A Paris correspondent of the Philadelphia
Bulletin writes : ' “Maria Van Zandt is here,
receiving from Carvalho, the directdr of the
Opera Comique, 50,000 francs a year, and is
allowed four month’s vacation per ,annum.
She Went to Copenhagen during her last va-
cation and sang ten nights there, receiving
20,000 francs and all expenses of journey
from Paris to Copenhagen and return in-
cluding hotel bills. Moreover, the Queen of
Denmark presented her with two beautiful
bracelets, which Miss Van Zandt showed me
the otherzevening. One is a small porte
bonheur of brilliants, composed of twenty
handsome stones. The other is of gold, of a
strangely-antique pattern of: Danish work-
manship, and bears insidea the following,
scription: ‘Frorn Queen Louise of Denmark
to Maria Van Zandt.’ Next spring Miss Van
Zandt :is to fill a short engagement at the
Monte—Carlo ,Opera :House, Monaco. She
receives 2,000 francs per night each time she
sings at private houses in Parts. Of course

In a lecture upon the “great com-st of
1831," the Astsouom-zr loyal for Ireland.
Plot. R. S. Bill, states that collisions of the
earth with comets have fter rrcrl, and
others will doubtless occur in the future.
The last of these collisions was in June, 1861,
when the earth passed through the tail of a
lirge comet. Had the earth passed through
the densest part of the nucleus he did not
know what the result would have been, but

CCCll

Bridgeport,tlarchis,iss'i, 12 thinks the consequences would not have
. ' ' ‘ ' - been serious. On the occasion mentioned
NO‘IlCBI the only indication that a collision had taken

place was the peculiar appearance of the sky
as observed at what was probably t’ a very
time when the earth was enclosed in the tail
of the comet.

On a recent occasion the bread distributed

toaca .lli‘y detachment at Oran, Algeria,

was found to be moldy, although made only
forty-eight hours before. Refusing to eat
it, the men threw it totheir horses. Two of.
the latter atc each about a pound of the
bread, which results in a two poisoning,
seriously injuring one of the animals. The
bread was investigated by Isl. Megnin. who
found upon itttvo kinds of mold the sporules
of which he believed to have existed in the
flour before the bread was made. One mold,
Ascepfl/zm nfgrz'cans, formed a fleaky, sooty
colored cover; the other, Oz'de'um duratio-
cum, lexistcd in spots of a salmon color,
which multiplied very rapidly. Tried upon
dogs, the former was found to produce a.
much more virulent sickness than the latter,

although considerable action was produced

From 8,000 hyprometrlcal measurements,
Dr. Chavannc has calculated the‘average
height of the entire continent of Africa to be
not less than 2,150 feet. This high figure is
evidently due to the great extent of the high
plateaux in that country, surpassing even that
of Asia.
Experiments has shown M. Maiche that
sounds of different characters produced from
two separate ,5ources can be sent simulta-
cously on one wire and received separately.
Heat the receiving station used two tele-
phones of different resistances, and at the
transmitting end caused a music box to op-
erate upon a microphone while all induction
telephone transmitter was spoken into at the
same time. The musical sounds were re-
preduced in the telephone of least resistance,
and the vocal sounds in the other, so that
with the two telephones to the ears the list-
ener could hear the music by one ear and the
speech by the other.
In a recent address to the Balloon Society
of Great Britain, Mr. W. B. Woodbury
predicted that photographers will be able at
ay to obtain from balloons bird‘s
eye views of any city or town, photographed
true to nature and'showing every detail with
sufficient clearness to serve many purposes.
The motion to which the camera must be
subjected is the chief Obsticle t) the suc-
cessful practice of the balloon photography,
but he believed that the extremely sensitive
plates now prepared mustzservc in a consid-
erable degree to overcome this difficulty.
He hoped that another year would show
some advance in this particular branch of
scrence.
Some time during the looming year, an ex—
hibition is to be held at Berlin of articles
pertaining to the “science and technology of
health, and the saving of life.” It would seem
that such exhibitions ought to become epi-
demic.
The principles of the new rapid ship, now
being constructed at Geneva from M. Ravul
Pietet’s plans, were latly described to the
French Academy. The vessel is to be broad
and quite flat, and so built that the bottom
will constantly receive an upward thrust,
tending to lift it from the water. This will
lessen the draught of the vessel, and conse-
quently diminish the resistance of the water.
to its passage. llI. Pictet calculates that he
will be able to obtain a speed equal to about
three times the present average. A practical
test of the new ship’s capabilities is awaited
with much interest.
An electrical elevator, worked by a Sie-

The Remains ofa. Sea Monster.

Miinrnono, N. J ., Dec. 14.—Thc petrified
remains of the large sea serpent which were
found in the supplemented pit of O. 0.
Herbert, at this place, last week, were sud-
plamented yesterday by the discovery of the
remains of another animal. Only two large
tusks and portions of the jaw bones crumb-
ling to pieces when exposed to the air. The
bones found last week are all well—preserved,
and the tusks lirejemarkable for their size
and fine natural polish. Professor Samuel
Lockwood gives the following description of
the reptile: “It was a.monster of great bulk.
It had two puddles well forward and two
behind, the body being short and stout. The
bones of the paddles, from their size and
solidity, indicate extraordinary propelling
power, The tail was stout, long and serpen.

tine, but a little fiatish, thus affording great
aid in propulsion by a sculling movement.
The neck was long, and yet lthick enough to
support the head high out of water, while
the monster was engaged in devouring its

prey. The huge jaws are armed with tusks
which we were more than those of the croc-

odile. The lower jaw was very singular in

structure and had a joint like an elbow. In

the act of swallowing the reptile could en-

large its gullet by means of this elbow joint.

The act of swallowing was necessarily slow,

and the reptile no doubt would have had
great trouble in retaining in itsmouth its
struggling prey if it had not been fora sup-
plementary jaw, which was used as a grap-
helt This was armed with small teeth,
which were curved in shape and very sharp.
As the large jaws with their great tusks were
being opened so as to obtain a new hold, the
little grnpncl jaw held the struggling prey
first, and the movements alternated until the
fish or other prey was forced down the great
throat.” 3».
The only bones of this monster reptile of

the antcdiluvian age known are those found
in the marl pits of Mr. Herbert, and no name
