In an authorized interview to-day upon the alleged conversion of ex-President Cleveland to the advocacy of free coinage, Senator Vest, of Missouri, states that the supposed conversion of the ex-President consists simply of a less degree of intolerance for free coinage advocates; that the ex-President has come to the conclusion that one may be honest and advocate free coinage. lie does not regard Mr. Cleveland as being any nearer favoring the free coinage of silver than he was four years ago, when he was only too anxious to veto a free coinage bill.

Mr. Taubeneek, one of thej three farmer Representatives in the General Assembly, said;to-night that he and his colleagues bad made up their minds to insist on fusion from either the Republicans or Democrats on the United States senators!) 1 p. They will not by their votes allow either side at any time to get a quorum in joint assembly and electa candidate, and should both sides vote for their respective nominees, farmers will also vote, so that neittfer candidate shall receive a majority. If a United States Senator is elected at this session of the Legislature he will have to be a man satisfactory to the F. M. B. A. representatives and neither Palmer, Farwell nor Oglesby are such men. Mr. Taubeneck said Grand Master Thompson or Cicero J. Lindley would suit him, though their names had not yet been mentioned in conference. The name of the man they have most favorably consideredhas not yet been mentioned in connection with the senatorship. The Senator they want is one who will use all honorable means in his power to secure for farmers benelicial legislation and who will not bo influenced against such legislation by wiles of corporations and their agents. Such a man should have no affiliation with either of the old parties. WRECKS OX THE OCEAN. Scotch Steamer Run Down and Twelve of Her Crew Lost. London, Jan. 11. The steamer Britannia, from Leith, came into collision with the steamer Bear, from Grange Month in the Frith of Forth, Scotland, at an early hour this morning. The Bear sank immediately, her crew having no time to launch a boat or make any effort whatever to save themselves. Of the fourteen men on board the Bear twelve went down with the vessel. The two others were rescued by a boat from the Britannia. After the collision the Britannia, which was badly damaged, transferred her forty-live passengers to the steamer Thames and was then taken in tow by that vessel, the two steamers proceeding slowly in the direction of Leith. They bad not gone far before the hawser connecting the vessel was snapped asunder, and before another line could be carried to the damaged vessel she gave a terrible plunge and sank beneath the waves- fortunately the crew had put on life-belts after the collision with the Bear, and all, with the exception of the chief engineer, managed to keep atloat until they were picked up by boats from the steamer Thames. The chief engineer went down with the vessel and nothing was seen of him again. Wrecked by Ice, . Delaware City, Del., Jan. 11.

MB. PARNELL AT LIMERICK

Enthusiastically Greeted by 20,000 Irishmen Gathered from Miles About. lie Reads a Letter to Prove the Truth of Bis Assertions Concerning the Hawarden Conference Says O'Brien Confirms Him. Limerick, Jan. 11. Fully twenty thou sand persons assembled here to-day to greet Mr. Parnell, thousands coming from all the adjoining counties. In response to addresses Mr. Parnell made a long speech. He held that Mr. Gladstone had caused the present trouble by issuing a mandatory letter demandingfthat the Irish members depose their leader. Referring to Mr. Gladstone's denial of the accuracy . of his statements regarding . the interview at Hawarden, Mr. Parnell declared that he could now confirm thoir truth by a letter written March 18, only three months after the interview, when the matter was fresh in his mind, and when 'even his bit terest enemy could not say he had any rea son to misrepresent or suppress the truth. The letter was sent to Cecil Rhodes, Premier of the Cape of Good Hope, an adherent of the cause of home rule. It stated that Mr. Gladstone and bis colleagues bad been considering fully the question of the retention of the Irish members at Westminster, and that Mr Gladstone had told him that the retention of thirty-three members in the imperial Parliament had finally been considered best for all purposes. -Mr. Parnell here read the letter, proving that the statement be sent to Mr. Rhodes corresponded with assertions in his manifesto which Mr. Gladstone had contradicted. He then proceeded to say that Mr. Gladstone pointed to his own public declarations, but it was dillicult to make anything out of these, Mr. Gladstone possessing a marvelous faculty of placing a different interpretation on any statement other than that placed npon it by opponents. dir. U'Jinen. to whom he (Parnell) had commnnecated an outline of the Hawarden conversation, had a remembrance absolute ly identical with his own regarding Mr. Gladstone's proposal as to the number of members of Parliament. Another important factyet unrevealed Mr. Parnell said he would now publish. Twenty-four hours befoie issuing his manifesto he saw Mr. McCarthy, to whom he told wbat he intended to do and gave an outline of the statement he was preparing to issue as a manifesto. Mr. McCarthy, he bad reason to know, placed his intentions bebefore Mr. Gladstone hisses, Mr. McCarthy also communicated to him Mr. Gladstone's observations upon the outline of the manifesto and there was no refer ence whatever then made by Mr. Gladstone against the manifesto on the ground of breach of confidence. ' Cries of Hear, hear." loucbmgthe present position of the land question Mr. Parnell said he thought the action of the Liberals toward the land bill proposed by the government was foolish, and' that it showed that the Liberals had no genuine land policy. The leaders of the party in order to conciliate the Kadical section had abandoned the idea of a peasant proprietory and land purchase, and in or der to conciliate the Whigs they had refused to entertain a proposal for a reduction of rents by means of amendments to the land act of 1881 or by conferring upon the future Irish Parliament the power .to deal with the question. It was therefore perfectly useless for the Liberals to talk about home rule at all, because home rule so restricted, instead of being a source of strength, prosperity. peace and freedom for the country, would in reality be a sham, landing them in hotter water than they were in at present, Whatever might be the motives of the Irish members of Parliament who opposed him, it was certain that thoy weren't in a posi tion by their knowledge of these arlairs to sit in judgement on nim or to pre tend to express the opinion of the country. It was ever to be regretted that their blind baste to obey their new leaders had impelled them to press forward to a decision in the committee-room as if the minutes were golden. Many of them must wish that they had paused at that time, instead of sending misleading cable disoatches across the Atlantic. I "Hear. hear!"l He wished that they had paused to await the return of Mr. O'Brien Icheers, whose advice and judgment would have been esteemed and respected by him as it would have been compulsory for them. ICheers. Perhaps they might soon be able to say that it was better late than never. Cries of "Hear. hearP Mr. Parnell said that he .could not fore cast the result of tbe negotiations without a breach of confidence. He thought, how ever, that Mr. O'Brien would not object to his saying that, so far, the negotiations had resulted in an agreement, and that they fully recognized that future steps will have to be taken by otber men, upon whom a very great responsibility will rest, if Mr. O'Brien and himself are not again able to resume negotiations with an assured hope of success. Cheers. As for himself, he only asked them to believe that he had not been actuated by the con temptible and paltry motives attributed to him. As soon as the future of the Irish question was. secured he would cheerfully retire from the leadership of the Irish party. Cries of No, no.) He should scarcely be asked to lead the party com posed as it was at present. Hear, hear. lie believed the future would vindicate him fully, but he certainly would never seek vindication beyond the voice of the Irish people. Cheers. ine 31 ay or ox .Limerick introduced a deputation from' tbe Limerick amnesty committee to Mr. Parnell, who. in reply to their address, expressed his belief in the innocence of the alleged dynamiter John Daly, who is now in prison, and acceded to their request that he bring the matter before Parliament. Subsequently Mr. Parnell attended a mass-meeting in the mar ket place and made a brief address. lie Was Only a Crank. Madrid, Jan. 11. The man arrested at Olot. on suspicion of being Padlewski, the murderer of General Seliverstoll, at first gave the name of Leopold Frances and said he was a commercial traveler. Upon tind: mg. however, that the police authorities suspected him of being the Pans murderer, he changed his statement, alleging that he was the man so long sought for. The prisoner was thereupon taken before a magis trate and subjected to a rigid examination. The incoherent replies made by him to tho questions of the magistrate indicated insanity, and yesterday evening he showed decided symptoms of madness. Alliance Men Resist Mortgage Foreclosure. Wichita, Kan., Jan. 11. A body of Farmers' Allianc men yesterday resisted Sheriff Dobson, of Harper county, in an attempt to sell farms. The oflicer and the attorney for the Johnston Loan and Trust Company, of Arkansas City, had orders of sale on 'property against which the mortgages ag gregated fc-.OOO. and wben they attempted to dispose of the farms they were surrounded by a band of Alliance members, who ordered them to desist and threatened them with personal violence if they did not leave. Being unprepared for such an emergency, they loft In talking of the matter last evening an Alliance leader upheld the actions of his associates, and said the organization was prepared to follow the same course throughout the country. Assaulted the Sheriff aud Escaped. Maryville, KamJan. 11. At 4:30 this afternoon a prisoner named Crozier made his escape from the Marshall county jail at this place. Sheriff Bent ley and three of the prisoners, Crozier being one, were playing cards. Crozier, walked to the stove, which was behind the sheriff, picked up a shovel and struck the sheriff on the side of the head, cutting a deep gash. He also gave him a hard blow with the back of the shovel full in the face, laying the sheriff out senseless. Crozier pulled a revolver out of the sheriffship pocket, held the other prisoners at bay and backed out of the jail. The sheriff is not expected to 'live. A posse of twenty men are hunting for Crozier and if captured he will likely be lynched. Crozier was incarcerated for stealing a team of horses. Death In the Incandescent Light. Boston, Jan. 11. At No. 245 Congress street, yesterday afteruoou. John Tierney. a workman employed there, attempted to replace a globe oi cn incandescent light

which had become broken, and in'doing so he took hold of the brass ring at the small end, instead of the glass, and received a heavy shock which killed him instantly. In bis fall he carried the globe and wire with him to the floor, the former so tightly grasped in his hand that the wire had to be cut before it could be removed. Tierney was thirty-one years old and unmarried. .

MURDERER HENDRY X CAUG1IT. Story of the Cold-Blooded Crime by Which Joseph Hawkins, of Goshen, Lost His Life, . Chicago, Jan. 11. Frank Hendryx, who is wanted at Goshen, lnd., for a peculiarly cold-blooded mnrder. was arrested in this city last night. Hendryx, while in Goshen, stopped with Joseph Haw&ins, who lived alone with his wife. Hendryx ingratiated himself into the affections of Mrs. Hawkins and succeeded in alienating her from her husband. Hawkins bad an insurance policy of $5,000 on his life, and thii money Hendryx intended to get possession of and with the money once in his hands f he and the -woman would leave for parts unknown. The plan pursued by Hendryx was a novel as well as atrocious one. In some manner he gained from Hawkins the fact that he could not sw. m, and invited Hawkins and his wife to a boat-ride. Wben some distance from shore Hendryx capsized the boat, and, being an expert swimmer himself, righted the boat and saved the life ot tbe woman, dragging her into the boat, where they both sat and watched the dying struggles of Hawkins. When the bodv had finally, disappeared beneath the surface of the water they both rowed ashore and gave out the information that an accident occurred and Hawkins had lost bis life. The authorities, however, became suspicious and upon making investigations Hendryx fled. The woman was arrested and lodged in jail, Nfiiere she made a confession. Hendryx, when arrested last night, admitted his participation in the crime, and signified his willingness to return to Goshen without requisition papers. FIGHTING FOR A PREROGATIVE OP LABOR. Stone-Cattsrs' Union Maintaining Its Right to Fine Employers. Chicago, Jan. 11. Eight hundred jour neymen stone-cutters, employed in fifty-six stone-yards, were locked out yesterday by the Stone-cutters' Association until the Stone-cutters' Union recognizes the rules and regulations recently adopted by the Stone-cutters' Association. The rule which : the men object to most strongly is the following: "The union shall not be permitted to discipline the employer for any reason! whatever." This rule the men consider aj blow at their unioxf, which by constitution! has a right to impose a fine ranging from! $100 to 00 upon anj' employer employing aj Dtuuotutioi aii less uiuu inn ovato, nuau Si for a day's work.

Her second term as postmaster will expire in February, and now she has another four years' lease on the office. As is well known in Kentucky, Mrs. Helm is an aunt of Hon. Bobert Lincoln, United States minister to England, and it is said that when here recently he used his influence to have her reappointed. He secured the office for his aunt in the first place while Secretary of War under the Arthur administration, Cleveland reappointing Mrs. Helm, and now Harrison does the. same thing, although Captain Quiggans and Henry Simpson, two ardent Republicans, made a red-hot right for the place.

DO. WE WANT A FREE-TRADE POLICY? It Is a System Founded on Individual Selfishness and Disregards Community Interests. American Economist. The question whether free trade should receive the sanction of our people depends altogether upon tho view we take of the wants of the Nation. If all that is to be done is to satisfy the barest physical wants, if we care only to maintain our workmen in tbe lowest fare, dress them in the poorest- clothes, house them in tho meanest bnildings, and deprive tbm of the hope of all intellectual advancement, then let us adopt an economic policy which will result in the destruction of our iudustries. If, on the other hand, we wish to nnfold and strengthen every energy of our people cultivate our material resources, preserve our natioual strength and impregnability; if we are to maintain our place in the van guard of the nations; if we are te seek tho satisfaction of intellectual ana spiritual needs; if we yearn after the higher life, after the broadest development; if we aspire to the noblest use of our best faculties, then we must look for these, not in free trade, nor in any form of foreign trade, but in the development within our country of the wide and varied catalogue of all tbe industries, all the sciences, all the arts, that contribute, to the happiness of man. " - In none of this work would free trade aid or encourage us. On the contrary its motto is to buy wherever it may buy cheapest to-day, without regard to the future, or to the country in which it buys. Itisditinctly founded on individual selfishness. It looks only to the temporary advantage of the individual, and takes no thought loir the future or for the community. The protective policy is founded on a higher form of selfishness, the selfishness of the nation, which is but another name for patriotism. Free trade brings the watch, protection brings the watch-maker; free trade brings the machine, protection the machinist; free trade brings the engine, protection the ensineer. Given the men, we cannot lack the machines. Having the art, we shall not want for the article. Possessing the producer, we shall not want for.product. Between them who shall hesitate as to which is the more valuable to the country!. Men found communities, machines do not; men constitute a society, machines do not. The policy of free trade involves a contradiction not readily reconcilable with the genesis of the Republic Among the causes that led to the Declaration of Independence was the fact that Great Britain would not permit us to do our own work. No source of difference between the mother country and the colonies was more offensive and repugnant to the sense, of reason than the denial of the right of the colonists to set up their own manufactures. All the force of law and official discouragement was brought to bear to repress the spirit of enterprise on the new continent and to foree its people to remain forever in a condition no less of industrial than of political dependence npon the mother country. It was our "market" rather than our country that Great Britain prized. Our voluntary adoption of an economic policy which would now give that market to Great Britain or any other country would defeat one of the principal objects of the founders of tbe Republic. But it is not alone in an economic aspect that free trade would be an injury to this country. If wo consider its eflects npon our social life we shall find it no less injurious. Communities are composed of men and women. Free trade separates by thousands of miles the sons of the farmer and tbe daughters of the watch-maker, of the machinist, of the book-keeper. It keeps the farmer's danghthers unacquainted with the sturdy and honorable young men who should be. learning in American rather than European workshops tbe various mechanical trades, which would yield them an income sufficient to enable them to enter with prudence into the marnage relation. Not the least of the achievements of a continued protective policy will be that by encouraging the widest development of the arts and manufactures, and the formation of communities in proximity to the farmer's home, the law of natural selection in tbe most important incident of human life may have an opportunity to assert itself. It will render it unnecessary for the farmer to send his daughters from home to get the advantages of society. It will bring so, ciety.to them. '.The varying tastes, preferences and affinities which sanctify the marriage state will thus have opportunity of finding expression. All temperaments, all dispositions, all shaded, of character will be observable in such communities, and ample opportunity for choice will be afforded to each 6ex. This will in very large degree promote the progress aud happiness of society. Or as a Christian Danker. Troy Times. Considerable of a philosopher was Thomas O'Brien, the green-goods swindler yesterday arrested in New York. In his possession were sentiments like these: "In these days honesty is almost a lost art." 'To-day there is no consideration but advantage.-' "W&en you steal, steal something that amounts to something." Mr. O'Brien has plainly missed his calling. He would shine as a lammany boodler.

Certainly prices ought not to inerease on manufactured articles with such decrease in raw material. Singularly enough the New York Times and all other free-trade papers rejoice in the prospect of the success of any unjust eftort toward raising the price of a really cheaper material under a false pretense of "tariff duties." . . Cheap Electric Lights. t Greencastle Banner. The lowest bid submitted at the recent meeting of the Indianapolis Council was $95 per lamp per year for 800 lamps. Some of the bids were as high as 8103 per year for that number, and when coming down to 400 lamps the lowest bid was $105, and highest Greencastle secures electric lights of a splendid quality at $03 per lamp per year, and only CO lamps at that.

FKASC1S MCEPUV'S FAREWELL 11EET1SG. An Immense Audience Listens to an Address by the Great Temperance Worker's Son. t t 1S t. The audience which listened to the Mnrphys, father and 6on, last night at Tomlinson Hall, numbered nearly four thousand people. Rev. Dr. Bondthaler presided at the meeting, and opened it with read ing of a portion of the Scriptures. A quartet led by Professor Eruestinoff sang a voluntary and then Rev. Dr. Cleveland led in prayer. In introducing Francis Murphy Dr. Rondthaler expressed the belief that Mr. Murphy, who is about to leave the city, would not be absent long, as 'In dianapolis can't spare Murphy and Murphy can't stay away." The sentiment aroused great enthusiasm.' In reply, Mr. Murphy acknowledged that it is probable he may take up his residence here. He then introduced hia son. Thomas Edwin, who re ceived a storm of applause. In acknowledging the greeting the speaker said his regret at leaving gospel temperance work has been growing stronger and keener in the two years of his business life. He is deeply engrossed in business now, he said, but whenever his father calls for his assistance he will give it at any cost. He then referred in manly terms to the respeet and affection in which he holds his father, and recalled the fact that two years ago, when they were last together on this same platform, his father was constantly lamenting that his sons had all gone oft and got married. But he had since turned the tables on the boys, and bad done the very same thing himself. The remark caused a laugh, and centered all eyes on Mrs. Murphy, who sat near her husband on the stage, and who received tbe sally with a blush and a smile. Mr. Murphy then turned bis attention to some of the reformers of tbe world, seeking an analogy Between them add gospel temperance work. Reformers, he said, are those who mark out a pathway humanity must follow. He then traced the birth of political liberty in William TelL and the emancipation of Europe from religions thralldom by the efforts of Luther, lie cited toe tnumpn of revolution against armed oppression in 1776 the liberation of British slaves through the power of Wilberforce, and of American slaves by the arbitrament 01 the sword. The agencies, he said, which accomplished these great results began in minorities. Herein lies the analogy, as the speaker outlined it, between' the reforms and gospel temperance. Righteousness, ho said, is not dependent on majorities, but it is incumbent upon Christian people to swell the numerical strength of minorities by standing together, touching elbows ana presenting a solid front to the evil of intemperance. The public sentiment that tolerates a saloon ought to be replaced with one that makes total abstinence popular. He was aware, he said, that some people are apt . to disdain a movement in which only & minority are enlisted. Illustrating this truth, he told the story of the Irishman who had put on the ribbon of blue, and sought to have a professing Christian man of temperance convictions don the badge for the sake of the inlluence it would have. But the man declined, saying that only a minority believes in it, and that he could not afford to. "But are minorities always wrongf " asked the convert. "They are very likely to be so." answered the man. "Well," said the ready Irishman, "how would you like to have been one of the majority at the time of the flood!" "The gospel temperance work," continued Mr. Murphy, "is promotive of physical intellectual and religious liberty. It seeks to release men from the power of strong drink. The law can do but little in this way. The law has some power of restraint, but has no regenerative force, and a man must be born again to triumph. The law can do nothing for reform." The speaker then showed the dangers of moderate drinking and maintained that it is the direct road to drunkenness. It is expedient, as well as right, he continued, to give up the cup. He demonstrated the power of inlluence in small things, in vindication of the appeal for all temperance people to wear the blue ribbon and make the badge popular. Ho closed with an appeal to the fathers in the audience to sign the pledge for the sake of their 60ns, with whom he said, the experience of his own early home had made him a full brother. The discourse was profusely embellished with stories, finely drawn descriptions and bursts of eloquence which elicited applause. At its couclusion Rev. Dr. Cleveland moved a vote of thanks to the churches, the chorus, the press and others for assistance rendered during the progress of the meetings. Mr. Louis Reibold, who had donated 100. was specially mentioned by name. The motion was carried unanimously. Rev. Dr. Rondthaler then took charge of the meeting, and quickly secured donations amounting to Si to cover a deficit in the fund needed to pay the expeLBes of the three weeks' campaign. Francis Murphy then began his farewell address, by showing the inconsistency of niggardly giving to save the besotted husband of some poor wife and children, while millions are contributed for the conversion of the heathen. He asserted that gospel temperance is saving more men and making more children glad than any other movement under the sun. But ragged men, the speaker said, are not popular, and it is a marvelous thing to save one of them. The speaker then mentioned notable instances of the salvation of men in tfcis city from drink, sin and infidelity through the gospel temperance work. He ascribed it all to love, that divine power which Jesus Christ exemplified. It is love we want, he said, and he often reads Christ's Sermon on the Mount to gain more of it. As often as he does he feels a genuine wave of Christ's nature filling bis soul. He closed with an earnest expression of thanks to the many who have assisted in making his meetings a success. The two sphecbes induced a large number to sign the pledge. The three weeks' campaign has seeming ly had a direct effect. "Arrests have been very light since Murphy . has been here," said night Turnkey Charles Clark last night. "It always is so when he is here. Our old-timerfbrace np, and thus avoid coming here. There were only two arrests all day." Mr. Murphy will leave the city to-morrow morning. The Armstrong Failure. Armstrong Brothers, boiler-makers doing business in Springfield, O., assigned Saturday afternoon. An Associated Press dispatch says the firm employed 250 men, and has been running night and day. The failure was caused by inability to get rid of the firm's paper, except at a' heavy discount. The liabilities are 40,000 and the assets 3100,000. This firm haa a branch works in this city, and suit was entered against it here . Saturday by Park Brothers & Co., proprietors of the Black Diamond steel-works, of Pittsburg, to garnish money alleged to be due from it to tbe Springfield firm; and also for an attachment of property in possession of the Lafayette car-works, but alleged to belong to Armstrong Brothers.

Pennsylvania st. voi v as v s vw tt at a- v SECRETS OF OMENTAL ILAKEMS. Belief That Many English Women Might lie Found in Them. St. James Gazette. Those who have lived in the East incline to think that European women could be found in most of the great harems if they were searched. Keviewing the circumstances, it seems too probable. If girls can be entrapped and spirited out of sight, never to reappear, by villains who have little money and no inlluence at command, a prince of vast wealth would rind it a very simple matter to secure one or a dozen. The thought is painful, but such possibilities become more probable every day, as science makes communications easier. Rcllecting men may see another danger here for the peace of our Indian empire. Some ten years ago two Circassian women escaped from a harem, and took refuge in the embassy at Pera. The incident was quashed, and put out of sight as speedily as possible, the tiultan himself assisting, but the murmur of excited indignation which arose in this country was a warning. If one of these refugees had been English, or even European, no man can guess tho consequences. That there are such in Constantinople is scarcely to be doubted. 13ut no sound from the harem of tho zenana or the purdah of a great Oriental noble reaches open air. In the nineteenth century, just as in any othersino women were shut up. they remain at the mercy of their husbands or a jealous wife, whom, perhaps, he dare not punish. It is improbable that dreadful scenes occur in Turkey nowadays; thoHA who hAV livrtd thpre and oliservp.ri now strong is public opinion within its nar row circuit may well incline .to doubt whether the . horrors told by poets and romancers were ever perpetrated. The secresy of the harem has limits among Moslems. Turkish women are at least as much inclined to gad about as others, and if any special event occurs in any household it becomes a subject of gossip over the neighborhood in the briefest possible time. The Turks are tender hearted, also, to a degree that seems exaggerated to the most compassionate of Europeans. But the restraining circuit of public opinion is impenetrable to the (ihiaour. All are leagued to hide a scandal or a crime from him. And the judgment of neighbors, however strong to repress evil conduct, has no authority to puuiuh the deed doue. It is a most unsatisfactory state of things at best hardly tenable in this age. when women even in Turkey begin to claim their "rights;'7 when "our own correspondent" would 11 ash the news by telegraph over the whole world if a scandal came to liirht, and legions of English people will cry, "Perish India!" if that stands in the way of vengeance 'when a fcllow-creat-ture has been abused. Where is that Englishwoman who nursed Prince Murad in the early times of his alienation! Comfortable among her own folks, perhaps, or rich and content in his dreary palace. But the question used to be asked at Pera, what ha become of those Europeans who used to dwell with Ismail Pasha, unless society at Cairo was misinformed! They also, we may hope, are comfortable or content. But it would be more satisfactow to lnoTv7 If we may be tolerably confident that woman are not ill-treated in Turkey, there is no such assurance iu Persia, or India, or. elsewhere in the realms oi polygamy. Regarding India, indeed; it is rumored that female slaves, at least, are shamefully abused by some ov the grt at chiefs uiid feudatories. If conlidntial reports of the political ageuts were publishi-u, a terrible outcry would follow. There is no need to mention names; the two worst ofiendera have been removed that is, we hope they -were the worst; and we hope, again, their euecebsors are another sort. But so long as the purdah system remains, there can be no certainty that women are not maltreated. Ihey hav less to fear from their husbands, perhaps, than from inmates of their own fcex in a higher position. Among the innumerable benefits to be expected lrom the admission of native ladies to the medical schools, it U not tho least, assuredly, that intelligent witnesses, trained in our Occidental notions of woman's rights, will get au opportunity of spying the secrets of the purdah.
