TURKISH ENTHUSIASM.

As an illustration of this spirit, these fiery passages occur in an address to the I soldiers of the Turkish army, published iirst in the :< Itihad," a journal of Constan tinople, and re-printed in the whole press of the empire :—"Go to the cemeteries, read the inscriptions on the tombstones ; and you will notice that hardly one of our ancestors whose yataghans shook the world but fell on the battlefield. They went to Paradise, leaving courage and resolve as a precious inheritance to their children; and when ilioy died, when their lips grew pale as life ebbed away, tho last words they uttered with their last'breath were " Country" and '• Faith 1" We greet you, 0 lions ; you have trodden in the footsteps of your heroic ancestors, and imitated their splendid achievements. On Doomsday every drop o? blood that has flowed from your wounds will bo converted into glittering pearls, and you will appear adorned with diamonds, and crowned with flowers. . . Oh, brothers, wo are warriors, the sons of warriors. God has made us such, and we shall remain what wo have ever been. Girt with the sword, and bearing the rifle on our shoulder, we shall always be ready to spring forward at the summons of the padishah, willing to sacrifice one life or a thousand lives."

PREDICTED FALL OF TURKEY.

Is an old book by one Robert Fleming, there are s">m-' singular predictions regarding the lust &<"-, of Mahomedaniato. Fleming's work, entitled "Tho Rise .and Fall of Home Papal," " was ni-it published a hundred and seventy-five ye ii'a »go It bears date, "London, January Ist, 1701 being the iirst day both of the year and tho C'ut!ir\-."'F!eraing's father was one of ihc four hraiclrcd clergymen of the Church of Scotland ejected in 1630. Imprisoned for some time In the Tolbooth, and afterwards liberated, he sought refuse in Holland, was, while there, a personal friend of the Prince of Orange, and died in London in 1091, v.-hen on a visit to the Prince in his new kingdom. Young Fleming was edu cated in Leyden and Utrecht. Scholastic theo logy was to'bim a life study. He was ordainod to tho Presbyterian Church in Leyden, and after wards called to London. The Kinir, Tiilot son, Oldiield, and Somers. were among1 hia intimate personal friends. He died in London in 1716 The book to which our correspondent calls attention. ha 3 more than once been re printed. In 1793, when Louis XVI. or h ranee was about to suffer on the scaffold, the predic tions of Fleming excited much attention; in 15(3, when revolution was rampant on one Con tinent of Europe, they were again alluded to as bein" on the point of further fulfilment. It is contended that, be his principles of interpreta tion right or wrong, his readings ot the Apoea- Ivpse have been realised by the course of events. The following are passages which are held to have been already fulfilled: 11 jo-y i

" I cannot but hope that some new mortifica tion of the chief supporters of Antichrist will then happen ; and perhaps the French Monarchy may begin to be considerably humbled about taat time. Wherea3 the French king takes the Sin for h;s emblem, and this for his motto, nee puribus impar, he may, at length, or rather his successors, and the Monarchy itself—at lea»t baforo the year 1794—be forced to acknowledge that, in respect to neighbouring potentates, he is c /en sinouit imjpar. " The fifth vial (Rev., ver. 10,11) is to be poured ont . . . on the dominions that more imme diately belong to and depend upon the Roman S-ie. *. . This judgment will probably be.^in about 1794, and expire about 1848. . . But yet we arc not to imagine that this viru will totally desrov the Papacy—though it will exceedingly weaken it. for we "shall find this still in being and alive when the next vial is poured out." Those who read in these passages fulfilled pronhecy will, probably enough, attach equal importance to the next succeeding of Fleming s predictions. It is as follows :— 1848-1900

" Thi2 sixth vial will be .poured out upon the Mahometan Antichrist. . . Seeing the sixth trumpet brought the Tnrks from beyond the Euphrates, from crossing which river they date their rise, this sixth vial dries up their waves, and exhausts their power, as the means and way toprepnre and dispose the Eastern kings and kingdoms xo renounce their heathenisii and Mahometan errors. . . There is no need to give you any coniectures about the conclusion of the sixth vial, or the beginning of the last. . The first of these will probably take up most of the time between the year 1813 and the year 2000. - . Ou^ blessed Lord seems to toil that the destruction of all these His enemies will be accomplished speedily, and in a little time, in comparison with the other vial. Supposing, then that the Turkish Monarchy should be totally destroyed between 1848 and 1900, we may justly assign seventy or eighty years longer to the end of tbe sixth vial." Then comoth the Armageddon of Revelation. Meantime, according to Fleming, the beginning of the end of the Turkish misrule has come.

(FEOM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT).

NAPIEPu, Wednesday. A child of Frank Brougton, committed for trial at Wellington to-day for embezzle ment, died suddenly here this morning. Its a"d is four years. THE CLERICAL ROW.

The Church Question has broken out here with renewed violence. Mr Wilson, a dentist, commenced a correspondence attempting to show that the Key. Mr Robinson had not forwarded his priest-3 certificates, as stated, to the Primate. Mr Robinson's old friends rose up in arms, and taunted the other party with cowardice in not making such charges when Mr Robinson was here to refute them. It appears that the whole matter has arisen out of a bet made between Mr Wilson and one of the church wardens.

Strange Suicide- A painful sensation was created in town by the news, which spread rapidly this morning, that William Baldwin, who for many years has been in the employ of Mr. Faulkner, as journeyman blacksmith, had committed suicide by hanging himself. The reported suicide was made known _to Constable Ryan about a quarter to nine o'clock. Constable Ryan at once proceeded to the residence of Baldwin, which was a cottage belonging to deceased on Port Aiiuriri beach, and found him suspended by the neck from a rafter, with a sash line doubled, his toes touching the ground. Ryan, with the assistance of one of Bald win's neighbours, cut him down, but found life quite extinct. The deceased was all old Napier settler, and hitherto much res pected. He has been for some time Buffering from melancholia, and his con stant talk has been of sudden deaths and suicides. He lived by himself in a detached cottage, and this morning, not making his appearance at breakfast as usual, Mrs BjTer, his sister, who lived close by, sent one of his nieces to see the reason of his absence. To the horror and astonish ment of the child, on entering her uncle's room she perceived her uncle suspended, and ran to her mother with the intelligence, who immediately sent for the constable, as narrated. Baldwin was a steady man, and had saved up a large sum of money. Pie has left no will. His father about fifteen years ago drowned himself in Wellington harbour.

Fall o£ Two Men from Scaffold ing. Yesterday morning between 9 and 10 o'clock, it was rumoiircd that three men had fallen from a scaffolding on the tower of a house being erected on the hill for J. Watt .Esq., and they had received serious injury. It appears that Henry Johns, Michael Legge and another carpenter whose name I have bsen unable to learn, were all engaged on the scaffolding at the tower, placing some boards on, where the board on which they stood suddenly broke. Johns, and Legge, were both precipitated to the ground, but the other carpenter, with great presence of mind, made a grasp at one of the uprights, aad held on until rescued. The fall from the scaffold to the ground was about 30ft. When Johns and Legge were picked up, they were both insensible. Stretchers were immediately improvised, and Johns was carried to the Provincial Hotel, where he is residing, and Leggo. to the Provincial Hospital. Johns 1 back is broken. Legge |* not so nmch hurt, although the shock of t'ae W'i bm rendered him totally helpless. JS' A'J'J VK TKADK.—KIRK.

Persia, according tea writer in an Austrian paper, is not in a very prosperous condition. He says the army is unfit to take the field. Corruption prevails in all the ranks, from the highest to the lowest ; and though since the Shah's European tour several attempts have been made to re organise the army in European fashion,' all has remained practically as before. The infantry is in a miserable condition, and the ■ artillery possesses but few serviceable guns ; the cavalry is better, but it is small, sis the finances or the country do not admit of the maintenance of a large army. The state of internal politics, too, is far from being favourable to an active foreign policy. The mollahs and seids, whom the people regard as the successors of the Prophet, loudly complain of the maladmini stration of trie Government, and various unpleasant demonstrations have already been made in some of tho large towns. The governors of provinces sell the appoint ments at their disposal to the highest bidder, and the discontent is universal at the rapacity and dishonesty of the officials. Persian statesmen, it is said, make no secret of their hope that one of the results of the present Eastern crisis may be the annexation to Persia of the province of Kerbela, the "holy place" of the Shiite sect of Mahomedans. The writer thinks it is doubtful whether Persia could render the Russians much assistance.

A Bill lias been introduced into tho New York Legislature which provides that certain school books shall be printed by the State, and that no other books shall bo used In the schools. Five Commissioners are to be selected to decide upon the books to be sanctioned.

slr J. M. Peebles writes a letter to the " Harbinger of Light" enclosing au extract from the " London World " as follows : " If Dr. Slado has been treated roughly by the law, he can. at all events, console himself with the knowledge that ho has highly placed and influential personages amongst his clients. The most enthusiastic of his disciples are s;iid to be the Princess Louise, and her sister-in-law, Lady Archibald Campbell. At the house of the latter, in Beaufort Gardens, several wonderful spiritualistic seances have been held." Mr Peebles goes on to say that he has known Dr Slade for fifteen years, and can vouch for his being an honourable man, and a superior medium. He says Professor Lankester is violent and ill-tempered, but the "good angels" have over-ruled his attacks for good.

The Directors of the Auckland Gas Company (Limited), have (in view of the approach of winter), had a number of testa made, for the purpose of ascertaining the value of gas as com pared with other materials for producing artifi cial light; the result, which is embodied in a table given below, proves beyond any doubt.that gas is considerably cheaper than either oil or candles. Gas is acknowledged to be superior to every other material as a light-giving agent: not only on account of its brilliancy and cncapnes3, but because it is safer, economises time and labour, and is more easily managed.

THE SCOTTISH HIGHLAND OIL is immediately obsorbed into the. Blood, chang ing its dull black hue into a brilliant red, pos sessing a delicate nervous force, which may be felt as a tremulous motion in the muscles, which often instantly relieves a great many painful disorders, which render life unbearable. POTTIES SCOTTISH OIL Will be found invaluable in nearly every in stance, and for colonial use is one of the best Medicines ever introduced, especially in the following cases:— TRAVELLERS, who have to shift from bed to bed. SURVEYORS, who are exposed to shbu vermin day and night. SHOOTING PARTIES, exposed to the tor ments of the tick. Members of Cricket. Rowing, and Football Clubs, and Athletes, May with greet advantage use it for the muscles of the arms and limbs, rubbing night and morn ing. It renders those muscles elastic and firm ; should the muscles be sore a good dressing will give immediate relief, and prevent the distres sing effects of stiffness, &c. POTTIES SCOTTISH OIL. A slight dressing night and morning will give complete immunity from fleas., mosquitoes, sand flics, ticks, and all kinds of bush vermin. The Oil when rubbed in all over the body or hands and face, dries at once, leaving a beautiful gloss on the skin, which, while it feels highly agree able, forms a perfect barricade.
