Text Appearing Before Image:
the heel of the Sultan, is stilldisquieted and liable to occasion general Europeanwar. Local wars, abdications and diplomaticintrigues, have brought Russia and Austria nearthe line of battle. It is the eager desire of Russiato absorb, practically, Bulgaria and CentralServia. which Austrian interest can not afford toallow, if it can be prevented. The people of thatregion are still primitive in their modes of life andmethods of agriculture. A good Mohammedan regards it as his right andduty to kill a Christian when he has opportunityThe evidence of a Christian against a Turk is notreceived in a court of law. A Turk can legallysteal Christian children and forcibly convert themto Islamism. The frightful principle of slave-owning law is practically in force in the Ottomandominion—no Christian has any rights which aTurk is bound to respect. The only security ofthe people is to conceal their wealth and seem to bepoor. Under the sway of the Turk the ajipearanceof poverty is rarely deceptive.
