A discussion arose between the
conductor and the driver in a Bos

at last the conductor, turning to go
to his end of the vehicle, said in a
withering manner/ “you have on

A Famous Constantinople Bridge,
The most favorable place for see
ing the life of Constantinople is on
the bridge over the Golden Horn,
uniting (l.ilata and Stamboul. This
rickety old wooden concern is one
ot the most democratic promenades
in the world, and all classes jostle
against each other as they pass to
arid fro on errands of traffic or curi
osity. Here the boats from the
towns on the Bosphorus and from
Fculari land their passengers at
all hours of the day. Moneychang
ers sit at either end to give, for a
consideration, small change for
gold and silver coins. Turkish
money is unreliable as Turkish pol
itics, and one must be centinually
on bia guard against clipped, scraped
and perforated pieces. Passing over
the bridge you must have the exact
’oil, f<r the guardian gives no change.
Carriages with screened windows and
driven by tall, slender, black eunuchs,
v 1! along with their unseen occn
pants. The high official of army or
stale, wearing black European suits
aad the r ct i< z. riding fiye Arab hors
es, goes by in apparent indifference to
the swaying masses. There are Chris
tian women without veils. The veil*
ed women are Mohammedans, their
dark eyes alone being teen of their
fiees. Their feet wear gayly colored
slippers, with high heels. The Turk
ish pantaloons barely come to the an
kles. The outer drees is plain in style,
but usually gay in color. Mohamme
dan priests with white turbans and
black, yellow or green gowns, the
Greek and Armenian priests in black
and wearing bushy beards, are mingl
ed with the throng. Beggars in tat-,
terod garments exhibit their infirmities
with the hope of alms. Turks, Greeks
and Italians, Frenchmen and Levan
tines, men from the far East and from
tho West, mingle together, olio ring a
scene of infinite variety to the student
of human nature.
Origin of O. K.
Moses Folsom of Portownsend,
sends the following sketch of the
origin of the u;e of the letters O,
Iv., which, he states, was furnished
him personally by James Parton:
While at Nashville in search of
material for his history, Mr. Par
ton found among the records ot the
court of which Gen. Jackson had
been judge a great many legal doc
uments endorsed O. li, which
meant “Order Recorded,” but often
so scrawlingly written ihat one
could easily read if as 0. If. If
Maj. Downing noticed a bundle of
papers thus marked upon Pres
Jackson’s table, documents, per
haps. from his former court, it is
very easy to see how a punster
could imagine it to be 0. If., or
“oil torrect,”
No doubt. So ha Smith, who wrote
under the nom de plume of klrjor
Jack Downing, had much to do
with creating the impression that
Pres. Jackson was unlettered and
illiterate, whereas many existing
personal letters, millitary reports,
court opinions and state papers
show to the contrary. He lived
before the day of stenographers
and typewriters, and yet carried
oa a voluminous correspondence.
Hundreds of his letters to old sol
dier friends, are still preserved as
heirlooms in the South, and his
i ■ vdi work is numerous in % Wnsh-
