4 Sailor in Coustantinople. |

The captain eame down and called out that if | wanted to go up town to come along; so 1 jamped ashore with my blue shirt and broad coller and went into the town. Ali the carrying here is done by men or horses, for the streets are so Dur- row there is no room for wagons, although you occasionaily see one. Ladies going out shopping use a sedan chair or go on 100%. The carriers use a pole about fifteen feet | ng. with knobs on the end, and two little iron pias in the middle, where the rope goes around, to keep the load in place. I have seen eight men carrying a lirge bale of hay this way, using four poles, and the bale being sluag diagoaally so that the men could each rest one hand othe other's shoulder. It mide it quite @ citiog when ten or twelve loads were ec ming at tie same time, the men ail

siouting for the people to get out of the;

wiy, aod the street being so narrow that sich a thing was almost linp ssible. Small lzht things like truoks ire carried by oue mun, wao has an affur of pigskin strapped on his buek of such a shape that the articles cariied almost stay there without being tied. After we left the ship chandler’s we came out into an open piace, where L was surprised to see horse cars. These cars were divided into two c wpartmen s—one-third of the cars be- jug for ladies and the other two-thirds for veatlemen. Next we w ot up a very hilly st-cet ; so steep that it was ail steps. le is lined on botn sides with handsome stores of al] deseriptious, and is crowded with people. I saw lots of those eastern

‘gzars we read of—some ino bushel- baskets, with nothing to be seen but the head and one arm, aud a variety of other sorts. Ata building that was being toro down we saw them carrying away the bricks on donkeys, a big bundle of them being sluog on each other, either one of the buudles weighiog wore than the animal, while the poor jittle fellow would try to wall, with his legs bending under him like rods of whalebone. When we arrived at the American Consul’s the ciptiin weat up to his offive and I stood at the duur. There are any quautity of peopie going around seiliug thiogs you wever beard of in the States, and in a mode of selliug you never see. For iv Stance, there are Wen selling drinkiog water; they have a kind of wooden tub strapped oo their back, the tub belay en- tively hiddea by leaves sud branches ot trees, which tower high above their heads. Tue water is drawo through a leath-r pipe, which has a brass mn: zzle and cock on the end, the mouth of che nozzle being ulso surroanded with greev leaves, Ia front of them they curry a little brass teay, with two tumblers, avd a sponge to: Washia: the rims of the glusses. They also riose them cut when you take a drink. ‘Ihe price is one pira, «qual to one ceot, und you are entitled to two glasses, The wateris good. hen there ure fiuit men, selling plums and grapes, avd other feilows that tave a regular cold lunch on a trvy before them and a stool sluug bebiid them, so that you can retire to a quiet corner and feast your appetite

. ~~ ——__ -— Discussions on Future Punisoment

Popular preachers—it would be an er- roneous use of the term, with one notable exception, to say theelogians-——have en- deavored to shed light on the awfal future. Cavon Farror, a scholar and divine, has epeken out his convictions ia a manly but passivoate way; Henry Ward Beecher, cousideruble of a scholar but not much of a divine, has had an outburst on the sub ject io a style common of himself; and T. DeWitt Talmage, whom vobody will either «ccuse of being a scholar or a divine, hus raved ia an «lmost blasphemous mun- ner as the champion of orthodox, and re pulsive moterislism. ‘This bas set the whole popular preaching world, down to the veriest adventurer, agoing. Will they throw light on the all but impeoetrable mystery in which this theme is surround. ed? lutellizgeut men do not quarrel with the di-cussiva of this or avy other sacred subject of vital interest to mankind, bur surely it will become the pulpit to set the exswyple of a painful levity It is not io the whitlwiod of populur—and oftimes ignorant—discussiou that the great veri- ties of faith ure established, It is iv the exerci.e of c:lm, still, earnest thought that central aud influential truths are elimina- ted. After the turmoil and the strife of tonzues have subsided, the eternal truth will shine out io all its clearness. Only Jet all truth-seekers cherish a spirit of ca'm and earnest enquiry, aud let them not be misled by the manifold flippancies with which the subject has been surrounded io some of the more recent utteracces upon it. — Laxchange.

CCAPSICUM) APS rc ae POROUS REASFERS.

The Greatest Medical Diseovery since the Creation of Man, or since the

Commencement of the Christian Era.

There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has been caused by outward application as the present. it is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.

Dr. MELVIN’s Capsicum Ponovs PLASTERS are acknowledged by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasters are slow of action, and require to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the instant one is applied the patient will feel its effect.

Physiciansin all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as a medical agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- tages in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convineed of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. MELVIN’s CAPSICUM Porous PLAsSTERS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters orlisiment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for

*R. MeLVIN’s CAPSICUM Porous PLASTER, You can hardly believe yourown convictions of its wonderful effects. Althongh powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate person to wear, as it is free from lead and iar poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits. and oue plaster will seli hundreds to your friends.

Ask your druggist for DR. MmLyr1n’s CAPst- cum Porous PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 25 cents for one, $1 for five, or $2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, post paid, te any address in the United States or Canadas.
