W,,«, RUSSIA. Her W»nt« and Claims. is at the present time, myn Mie Cincinnati Commercial, a great amount of loose reasoning in reference to the want® and claims of Russia in particular, ami the Eastern question in general. 1 Lack of trustworthy information in re­ gard to the country of the Czar, its re­ sources, population, government and customs ; our own comparative slight intercourse, coupled with the fact that a greater part of our information is viewed through English spectacles and preju­ dices, are sufficient excuses for this. There are many who believe Kussia has hostile designs upon England's power in India and the East; others that she desires to establish the Greek Church to the exclusion of the Jesuits in all Sclavonic countries and in Turkey. While these might be more or less the remote effect of hostilities, and a gen­ eral war, and even while they may now cut no inconsiderable figure in the knotty Eastern problem, we are frank to confess that they do not compass or fathom Russia's purpose, nor are either of them sufficient to justify Russia's taking up arms. It must be borne in mind in the first plaoe that Russia will not go to trar for an idea, as England did va the Crimean contest, for which, according to John Bright, she paid 40,- <)00 lives, £100,000,000, and loaned to insolvents in the Bosphoms as much more ; and in the next place her finan­ cial condition is not such as would jus­ tify her in so doing. Russia's annual deficit is larger than Austria's, her finances are muddled, and her statesmen lack the ability to straighten them. In 1881, the total interest-bearing debt was £135,850,000 ; but in addition there are upward of 750,000,000 roubles issued in paper bills of credit, together with a large floating debt, the amount of which is unknown. Therefore, lacking the needful funds which are the sinews of war, any serious interference with En­ gland's India possessions may not be looked upon as alarming at present. When it is considered that a conquest of India by Russia would involve long and tedious marches over lofty moun­ tain ranges, exposed to exhausting and enervating climates, over poorly-watered and trackless wilds of sand, for over 2,000 miles away from any solid base of operations at Oxenburg, some of the difficulties will be seen. Then met by a large force at the Indus, which could be transported from England via Suez bet­ ter than Russia could reach there by land. Then defeat would be annihila­ tion, and victory might be stripped of any feclid or abiding benefits. 1. Russia wants free and unrestricted access to the ocean, in that her trade and industry may be developed. As Alexander I. expressed it, she wants "the keys to her own house." Peter the Great thought he was amply repaid for his long and bloody contest with Charles XII., of Sweden, when he gained the Baltic provinces. Now the issue from the Baltic is blocked by the power that commands the sound and the belts, and departure from the Black sea by the Turks at Constantinople. These are Russia's two vital points, and hence her interest in affairs at Copen­ hagen and Constantinople. 2. Russia wants an adjustment of the Sclavonian question--that is, the strug­ gle of the Sclave people of Southeastern Europe for unification and freedom based on the principle of nationality. The Sclaves number upward of 40,000,- 000, professing the same faith, speak­ ing the same language. If we except about 1,000,000 free Servians and 4,000,- 000 Roumanians of the principalities who are free, we have the balance who are tryranmzed over by all alien races. Some are held under military sway in Austro-Hungary, while 13,000,000 in Roumelia are lorded over by Turkish barbarians. Is it strange that Russia regards the oondition of the Sclaves with feelings of more than ordinary in­ terest ? Bound by ties of language, re­ ligion, and propinquity of territory, her opposition to the Turks, and aid to the down-trodden Christians, means some­ thing more than the establishment of the Greek Church to the exclusion of the Papal. In May, 1867, M. Bolit, a Croatian agitator at a Pan-Sclavonic meeting, honored by the presence of Coimt Tolstoy, the Minister of Education, M. Pogzeboff, the Mayor of St. Petersburg, and other eminent persons, used the following language : " The battle of Sadowa has decided the destinies of the European East. In consequence of it the German world has been separated from the Sclavonian; what remains to be done is to solve the Sclavonian question--a task to be ful­ filled by the Sclavonians themselves-- and chiefly by Russia. Russia, gentle­ men, is no longer Russian, it is Sclavo­ nian ; nay, Pan-Sclavonian. The re­ sources at her disposal are material but also moral. Sclavonic Russia is no men­ ace to civilization, but only prepares Europe for witnessing the reunion of the Sclavonian family." If this means any­ thing, it is that, since Austria is no longer under the protection of Germany, there is nothing to hinder Sclavonians from utilizing her for these Pan-Scla vonic purposes under Russian auspices. This, thens is what Roumelia means when she declares for independence, and, in the light of the above, the demands of the Czar are something more than for a mere extent of territory or the em­ broiling of humanity in contest over a cross ot a crescent, a St Sophia or a Ma- ho MERCHANT'S Gargling Oil has won for itself a woHd-wide reputation as a lini­ ment useful in rheumatism, sprains, bruises, burns, scalds, etc. This prepa­ ration was first manufactured in 1833, and since then has steadily grown into the favor and confidence ef the people. 7^ <» Jong term ars during which it >» v 4 ' jpought to the notice ar with its immense Persons <f an inherent value ted.

Mcllcury, An African King's Reception. Col. C. C. Long, of the Egyptian army, now visiting with his family friends in St. Louis, gives the following account of his reception at the court of King Mtesa, to which he had penetrated with two attendants onl; >ptio) mysterious King was unique. Covering ly: My reception by this strange and the hilltops that characterize the moun­ tainous districts of the lake regions were thousands of the people of Uganda as­ sembled to welcome " the Great White Prince," as they called me. King Mtesa, surrounded by his ocgirtiers and harem, 88 I arrived, sent a messenger to ask me to appear before him and show him the strange animal upon which I was mounted. I trss riding the first horse that had ever been seen in Uganda. At a quickened pace advancing toward the King and courtiers they fled precipi­ tately before me, while I, turning my horse, regained the hill from which I had descended, and, throwing ray foot from the stirrup, in the act of dismount­ ing, I was surprised to see the people scatter in every direotion in dismay. I learaed from the interpreter that they had supposed, up to that moment, that I and the horse were one animal--that I was a kind of a oentaur. I was pre­ sented the next day to the King--a tall, graceful man, dressed in a flowing Ara­ bic rob?, bound at the wrist by a girdle to which a cimeter was suspended, au* with sandaled feet, who eyed my horse with affrighted glanoe and retreated toward his throne. Prostrate bodies covered the entrance and floor of the hut. It was here that the King held audience with his different shieks and chiefs, and the heads of the different branches of his Government. The cere­ mony ended in a slight inclination of the head of the King to his messengers, who, unrolling from their heads neatly- bound cords, threw them around the necks of the assembled throng at the door, and dragged them, halloaing and struggling, away to an executioner, who, as the fancy struck him, had them poriarded or choked to death, or had their brains dashed out. This is a sac­ rifice which is made to all African kings. Tweed. The New York Herald publishes an account of Tweed's sojourn in Cuba. It appears that he, with his companion, "Hunt," suddenly landed on the coast nea^ Santiago on the 11th of June; that they went to Santiago, where Tweed was detained until July 25 for the purpose of an investigation by the Spanish au- horities of his passport, under the name of John Secor, from the American State Department, which bore date early in April, some four months after the es­ cape from the Ludlow street jail. The escape to Vigo and his arrest there are well known. " Hunt" is now said to be Tweed's son-in-law, Mr, Maginnis, of New Orleans, with whose appearance a photograph of Hunt agrees perfectly. A OORBBSPONDKNT, writing from the Philadelphia Exposition, says: Of machines for cleaning, separating and grading grain-- the most essential of farm implements --tbere aire a goodly number, of various degrees of merit, on exhibition in Agricultural Hall. Some of them have a specialty for doing one kind of work, and others for another kind ; some work well but slowly ; othew rapidly bat olean the grain less thoroughly. But for oombining all excellencies--for doing the best and the most rapid work--none have attracted the attention of practical farmers here like the A. P.
