If Dr. Swallow has told the tiuth, then upon the establishment of that fact In coutt he will ineilt the gtatl- ttide of eveiy honest citizen of commonwealth. Hut, on the otner hand, If it be cleat ly ptoved that his charges ate false, and that he has taken advantage of an embltteied fac tional feeling In state polities to lend the mantle of his sacied calling to the spewing fotth of scandal, hoping, after punishment, to pose befote at least a pait of the people In the attitude of a mattyi, then he will desetve to be con demned by every poison who lias the welf.ue of lellglon nt heatt, and his de llbeiato le-Itetntloit of the accusations will bar any ile.i for inetcy.

"If the Citeek troops vvoio to be with drawn from Ciete there would be the gieatost niassacte of modem times." This Is the language ctedltcd In n pub lished dispatch to the King of Gieece. It is a ptedlctlon cleat ly within the limits of truth. The Mohammedan fa natics have been led to believe by the action of the poweis that their coui&e meets with lJtiiopo'8 nppioval, nnd It would be simply an Impossibility for them to be held in check If they wete to gain the lmpiesslon that the Clnls tlnns In Ciete wete no longer piotected b Greek soldlets.

"Will public opinion toleinto a tiemetidous demonsttatlon of fotce on the patt of the Chilstlan powers to uphold the blood-i coking hands of a Mohammedan despot, whose inhuman tteatment of his Christian subjects In Ainieiiia has wiought Huiope to a fevet of vvtath and Indignation?
