TUU STORY or IT* SiCHi KIN 1856.
The itory of thi eiege end of the defenee,
which took place juet twenty-two years ago,
is among the moat romantic of the chroni
cle# of that war. Kara waa garrisoned with
a force ot 17.U00 Turks and Kngliah, under
command of Col. Fenwick Williams. The
Russians, under Nikolai Murarieli; the engi
neer of the Sebastopol lorUlieations, invested
the town in the first week of June, 18&Ti,
with 48,000 men. For three months the be.
sieging forces made ineffectual attempts to
obtain possession of the natural intrench
ments. the only result being the steady in
crease of the strength of the fortifications try
the industrious labor of the defenders; while
the destruction of life in fruitless assaults
and in equally useless sallies, waa enormous.
Then the Russians, encamped in a country
where the resources ef subsistence were un
limited, undertook to starve out the plucky
garrison. The allied powers failed to real
ize the importance of supporting the defense
of this post, and the contest was then by
tween Col. Williams and famine. When
the end of the stores was reached, the horses
were killed and eaten. Dogs were next used,
and when even the rata were exterminated
and starvation waa at band, mothers brought
their babies and offered them as food to the
soldiers who were defending theii hornet. It
was the last of November, nearly five months
after the investment, that Col. Williams,
himself unable to walk through weakness,
proposed s capitulation, and the Russian
General humanely responded by hurrying
food into the starving town. Tbit siege
brought honors to Col. Williams and great
prestige to Russia. The Turks are now
alone in the defense of this fortress; hot Muk
tsr Pasha is in command of a garrison of
60,000 well drilled troops, new artillery is
mounted on the fortifications, and tbs town
has been victualed for a siege of unusual
length. It is probable that we shall hear.of
many more battles in Asiatic Turkey before
the Grand Duke Michael enters Kars.— J.ll

The New York Use Show.
The dog show, which was opened in Gil
more’s Garden, New York, on Tuesday, is
said to be an interesting affair. A large
number of highbred canine pet* are to be ex
hibited, and a number have been imported
from abroad for exhibitioa. Fivt mastiffs
are valued at $5,000. They are magnificent
animals, fawn eolsred, black-muzzled and
average in weight one hundred and twenty
pounds. No such a lot of these animats has
ever been seen in America. A great variety
•f pet dogs will be shown. One Skye, val
ued at a fabulous price, is to be placed in a
glass esse. The exhibition is not gotten up
by dog fighters, rat killers or fanciers, and
more interest is taken in it by Fifth Avenue
than by Baxter street. A person ignorant
of dogs or their uses will interest himself in
the deer hounds bred from Her Majesty Vic
toria's kennel, which are worth >50,000 each.
So with the high bred mastiffs,' one is worth
$2,500; so with Rover, the typical Irish set
ter, the property of the Rev. J. Cumming
Macdona, who fixed hia price at $50,000 in
order to avoid a purchase, as his stock is
rare. Such a dog as Rover has a pedigree
as long as that of a Verede Vere, and in him
every excellence and trait of breed is cen
tred. Sleaford and Sensation, pointers;
Pride of the Border, Lou, Leicester, Plunkett,
setters, among others, are similar types and
are equally valuable. Dog breeding is just
getting out of its infancy in this country,
and it is not otten, except in the case of im
ported dogs, that more than SI,OOO are paid
for an animal for either Sporting or breeding
purposes; but in England a fair price for a
sporting dog is SSOO, and the price often
runs up to sl,9ooeven for dogs for sporting
purposes alone, at it costs from SIOO to S2OO
to “break” a dog to suit a first class English
sportsman; while instances are not rare in
which as high as $5,000 have been paid for
a dog, and in the caie of the greyhound Mas
ter McGrath, a Waterloo cup winner, Lord
Lurgan refuted $12,000 for him.
Blaine * ovation In Wa*hln*u>n.
The Washington correspondent of the
Boston Herata sends this news: “Mr.
Blaine came here ostensibly to look alter
repairs on his house on Fifteenth street.
He has more than he can attend to in re
ceiving the numerous visitors who call at
his house. Over two hundred have called
to-rtav, and the colored servant at the
door m busier than the servants at the
portals of the White House. The Re
publicans who are dissatisfied with the
course of the Aministrari m—and their
name is legion—recognized Mr. Blaine as
their leader and flocked around him. He
has reason to feel flattered by the atten
tions he receives. Hi* friends assert that
he declares that Mr. Hayes’ coarse is kill
ing the Republican party and ioanring
defeat in the next election. They also
say that he is as full of the idea of being
President as ever, and that he believes
that his leadership may yet lead him into
the White House.”
MiCionay oner bet and lo*t a copy of
"Paradise Lost” to Jeffrey on the correct ren
dering of a line in the poem. He then off
ered to bet another copy that Jeffrey could
not catch him again on any line, and he won
the bet, although the latter had the book
open before him. Sir Robert Peel once
said to Macaulay that he had never forgot
ten anything be wanted to remember, to
which Macaulay retorted that he had never
forgotten anything.
