At a conference of repreeeutativee of Eur.

rules for the prevention of oholera among
the pilgrims were drawn up for the accept-
ance of, the Sultan; and he, after modifying
them in some particulars, accepted them,
and sought their'enforoement. He met' with
obstacles beyond number, with unwilling-
ness and incapacity on thepart of hie agents,
with religioe objeotione of one kind or
another,wtth the ueter disregard of all aani-
tarylaw which haeexisted for ages among the
pilgrim hordea,ever ready to, welcome death'

of Mecca. The Sultan renewed his efforts
lest year in a feeble way, without any
more success. And now again we have
reports that the oholera'' is among the
devotees from India who have arrived at
the port of Jeddah.Thence it has often
gone northward to Europe. What can the
Bultan do about it? Wbat can the menaced
"nation of Europe do about the Sultan or
with him ? What would be the use of
driving him from his throne, so long as the

that they found her not guilty of the

a popular one with those in the court
room was apparent from the 'buret of
applause which greeted it, an applause
the more hearty probably from the fact
that Crown Attorney Dewart's address
to the jury had been sueh a terrible
arraignment of the accused, the Judge's
charge so unfavorable to her, and
the jury's absence so unexpectedly
brief, that many who believed her innocent,
or for any reason desired to see her freed,
were fearful of the result and reluctantly
