Turks—Cash CO TSTSTIT UTIONALIST. WEDNESDAY MORNING, JAN. 6,18G9 f Fiona the New York Herald. The Eastern Question —What will a Con gress Do ? Our news from Europe regarding the Eastern question goes to show that, while the feeling between Turkey and Greece is as bad as it can lie the desire of the various European Powers seems to be to prevent hostilities. 18 Je as to the state Os feeling in the Greek kingdom to be informed that the Chambers have voted the war credit of one hundred million drachmas, and that the Committee of Action Itavc ad dressed a petition to tiic Government pray ing for peace. A European conference to settle the question, as between Greece and Turkey, seems to be in general favor. The one new and striking feature about the conference is that Count Bismarck, who is the parent of the idea, and to whom must be conceded the honor which is justly due, lias expressed the hope that the con ference will be held iu Paris. This is a stroke of policy which will redound to the honor of the Count and to the advantage of Prussia. Even if it had been proposed to hold it in Berlin Napoleon could hardly have objected. But now that Paris and Napoleon have been so handsomely compli mented the conference may be considered a certainty in the early future. London had the honor of settling the Luxemburg ques tion, the last general European trouble. Paris, it may now' be considered certain, will have the opportunity of trying to settle the Eastern question, the European trouble of the moment. It is well that it should bo so ; for the statu quo in the East was determined by they treaty of Paris, 1856. If that treaty requires revision it is well that the revision should take place where the treaty was drawn tip. We have yet to iearn that either Turkey or Greece lias consented to abide by the decisions of the Congress. It is competent to oue or other or both to refuse to submit their differences to any arbitration. Both Powers, however, are so dependent on the kindly consideration of Europe generally, that there is small chance of either the one or the other objecting to the conference as proposed. Taking it for granted, then, that Turkey and Greece will not object, that the con ference will be held and that it will be held in Paris, the questiou becomes of some im portance—what will the congress do? It is not at all impossible that an attempt may be made to widen the scope of the conference so as to allow a consideration of the general condition of Europe. We know that there are many unsettled aud disturbing ques tions besides that of the Orient. Such a proposal, it will be remembered, came from Napoleon when the London Conference was first mentioned in connection with the Luxemburg difficulty. The mauner in which that proposal was received by the other Powers may prevent Napoleon from repeating it now; and if it emanates not from this source it is little likely to emanate from any other. The presumption, therefore, is that the conference will be convened for a special purpose, aud that the attention of the representatives will be confined to the difficulties in the East. Since the proposal has come from the Prussian Government, not improbably at the suggestion of Russia, it will be curious to learn what Bismarck lias to propose as a solution of the difficul ties We know that there is trouble in the urn-ill of Turkey almost as serious as that in the South Crete is impatient of Turkish do mination and demands annexation to the kingdom of Greece. Roumama is impatient of Turkish supremacy and demands inde- ' With the Cretans and with the Rouma nians Russia is in sympathy. The Prince of Roumania is a scion of the house of Hoheuzollern, and it may be taken for granted that the sympathies of the Prus sian Government are with him and his peo ple The probability is that Russia and Prussia are pretty much agreed. Will they jointly propose the annexation of Crete to Greece v Will they insist on the indepen dence of Roumania ? It is well known that when the crown of- Greece was offered, in S to the late King of the Belgians, then PHn’ct Leopold of Saxe-Coburg, one of his principal reasons for refusing it was ins dissatisfaction with the boundanesofthe kingdom It was ins opinion then—and to this opinion, we believe, he clung to the last that Crete should belong to Greece. The Roumanian difficulty is not so old as that of Crete, although it has a'readymore than oucc engaged the attention of Eu ropean diplomatists. That some such pro posals will be made there can be little doubt. That, if they are made, they will come from Russia or Prussia, or both, is certain. SviiUcckln Constitutionalist. How will the other Powers entertain such proposals ? The great difficulty Is that the annexation of Crete to Greece and the cut ting of the connection between Prince Charles and the Sultan • would establish precedents which could not fail completely to break up Turkish rale in Europe. An nex Crete ? Then why not the other islands ? Why not Thessaly and Macedonia and the other Greek provinces on the mainland ? Give Roumania independence ? Then why not grant the same favor to Bulgaria, Ser via and the other Slavic provinces ? The disintegration of the Turkish empire will thus be fairly commenced. Where or how will it end ? This. it is which will consti tute the reaPdifficulty of the congress. It remains to be seen how the difficulty will be met. Race and religion; fortunately or unfortunately, are both opposed to the con tinuance of Mohammedan rule in Europe. [From the Mobile Tribune. Experience of Southerners in Brazil. We had the pleasure of a visit yesterday from Mr. James J. Selby, an intelligent Mobile youth, who has just returned from Brazil, whither he went in 1867. Mr. Selby landed first at Rio, and took passage from there for Para in the Govern ment steamer, for the purpose ot joining the colonists who went from Mobile under the guidance of Major Hastings, and had set tled some distance up the Amazon. The Brazilian Government had pledged itself to transport emigrants from this coun try to any part of Brazil where they might wish to settle. The experience or Mr. Selby, of the man ner in which that pledge was kept, was anythingbut gratifying. After great trouble and numerous delays he secured a ticket and went on board the steamer. During the passage that lasted twenty days he was night and day in the open air, and afforded no shelter from sun or rain. He was furnished two meals a day of ferina, which were served in a huge basin set out upon the deck for the accommodation of deck passengers en mouse. There were about one hundred and fifty of these, negroes, In dians, and Jialf breeds—the very scum of creation—*-lousy and filthy, all fed together, helping themselves by the handful at a time. The passage from" Para to the Hastings colony, occupying three days, was of the same nature as that from Rio to the first mentioned place. So much for the trans portation. The colonists who went out with Hast- Square*. 1 Week. 2 Week*. 3 Week*. 1 Month. 2 Months. 9 3 Months. 4 Month*. 5 Monthr. 6 Months. ings were promised supplies for six months, or their equivalent in money with which to purchase supplies where they might deem proper. How that promise was kept may •be appreciated from the following: The official charged with furnishing the settlers with supplies is named Pinto. He is Vice-President of the province of Para, and proprietor of a harem which turns him out annually a fair crop of half-breed In dian and negro offspring. With the money that Pinto had rece’vod from the Government for the purpose desig nated, he established a store on the bank of the river, filled it with the cheapest groce ries he could obtain, and forced the settlers to buy from him at the highest cash price, or starve. The settlement is distant from the river about eight miles; a sandy desert without shade Intervening; and once there the set tiers had to trudge under a tropica! sun, bearing on their backs the poor but cost'y groceries supplied by the enterprising Pinto. Delicate women from Alabama had often to perform that fearful task. The land in the Hastings settlement, and the Valley of the Amazon generally, is inferior in quality to that of our own coun try, and whatever is planted is speedily de voured by the myriads of insects that swarm in those tropical regions. And not only do these pests attack voireUibio Jift> out man ««id oeast as well. An insect called by sailors “ the jigger,” lies in wait at every turn ready to make lodgment in the foot of the pedestrian, and form a colony of young “ jiggers” in his flesh. The feet of hogs are so infested by these insects that the animals never get fatter than an or dinary lath. Scorpions, centipedes, tarantulas, ants an Inch and a-half long, and whose bite is like the combined sting of a dozen bald-faced hornets, ticks as large as a man’s thumb nail, that go through human flesh like a mole through freshly spaded earth, arc some among many of the Amazonian blessings 4hal endow a man witli the power of des pising such trifles as the clouds of mus qnitoes and sandflies that prevail there. ■Comparatively speaking, the vampire is the mosquito of the Amazon valley.— Whether the vampire is really a blood suck er is a question which has given rise to some disputation among naturalists. We remember reading, some years ago, a maga zine article, whose object was to defend the great South American bat against the se rious charge that was generally believed to be founded in fact. Mr. Selby sets that matter at rest. He has killed vampires in the act of sucking his own blood. Horses in the Amazon valley suffer greatly from these blood-sucking bats, and have to be kept well protected from them at night. Os the families that went out with Hast ings only four remain at the settlement, the rest having gone to Para af a first step to ward getting back home. Those that remain are the following: Vaughn, Mendenhall, Steel and Emmett. The health of the country is about on a par with our swamp lands. While the Hastings colony has been re duced to a remnant, all the American colo nies have been utterly broken up; the colo nists coming in as best they could to the nearest seaports generally in an absolutely destitute condition. The result of the Brazil “ fever,” sid as it has proved to those who yielded to its at tack, will stand as a warning to the South ern people against the hasty abandonment of their native land. Even the greatest curse that can fall upon us from the foul womb of Radical hate—the curse of mon grelism cannot be avoided by going to Bra zil or any other South American country. In all of them the nasty fruit has ripeued, and pollutes earth and air with its sickeu ing odors. A Warning to Fashionatas Drink ers.—Having stirred up a genuine sensa tion among the retail grocers of New York city by its exposures of light weights and adulterations, the World lias now attacked a far more vulnerable and mischievous class of dealers—the venders of liquors by the glass. To make its exposures the more effective, samples of tiie most expensive whisky and brandy were bought some time since by the WorlcCs “ commissioner ” at several of the most fashionable bar-rooms in the city, and subjected to chemical an alysis by Professor John C. Draper. The results obtained will astonish and horrify the gentlemen who have been in the habit of taking their “toddies” at these places, under the delusion that high prices insured a pure and undiluted article. At but one bar in the list was the brandy obtained pure, and in this iustance it was greatly diluted. The wisky was better, but gener ally contained more or less of the poison ous fusil oil and of tannin, and was inva riably diluted. The generalization from the facts obtain ed is that “in our day there is barely one gallon in a hundred thousand manufac tured that is not adulterated or badly rec tified.” This may be a rather broad state ment, but it is substantially justified by the facts. At all events, it is undoubtedly true that even those who can afford to pay the highest prices for liquors, at the most reputable bar, will, in a majority of cases, drink an adulterated and poisonous article. It is this fact which accounts for the fear ful ravages of disease among the fashiona ble drinkers of the day. The adulterated liquors derange the system, create a mor bid condition which demands a continuance of the poison, craze the brain, and make premature drunkards. This fearful and incontrovertible fact should be burned into the mind of every young man in the coun try.—iVw York Mail. HURLEY'S AGUE TONIO. PERFECTLY RELIABLE.
