Soma two or three months ago there was telegraphed from Turkey a brief state ment that a conspiracy against the life of the Sultan Abdul Hamid and the safety of his realm kad bean ciecovered and frostrated, and that several arrests of prominent parties involved had been made: Since then no further details of the affair bare booz mais public. It now appears that this regicidal and evolutionary plot had its origin in a shallow and thoroughly fareionl court intrigue. designed to advance the interests of two ambitious indivüinale, while the third was prab ably birol for gala to do his share in the job. The first of theasies vain but enterprising young men named Papadopooks-au individual who having failed in business, was living on the bounty of, and under the same roof with his uncle, one Dimitriados, in the village of Arnsontksoy, - burb of Constantinople, on the Bosphorus. The Bacond conspirator is no loss a peconspa than Georgaki Boy Aristarchi, a brother of Aristarali Bey, the Minister of Tackey to the United States now at Washington. The third man in the intrigas was a vainglorious youth, by name Galanski, of no very gmat social importance in himself, but willing to take a hand in suy grand enterprise where fame, doceration, or the Invour of his superiors was to be gained. Papadopoolus is probably a sort of bare-brained scopegrace, a sort of Bysantine swell of man-about town. Georgiki Bey, through family and political in fluence, holds a position in the imperial hona- bolin an officer of the Sultan's body-gourd, Though living so near the glamour of the throne. however, it appears he did not enjoy much favoOLS from his momarah, and the Sultan, though, from motives of State policy, tolerating Georgaki's gconprey of the post of honour, did not con deanand even to speak to him. The officer of the guard tried in various ways to win the Sultan's smile, but to no avall, and his position sa purely nominat ong, as Abdal Hamaid's ropag nance to him was so great that be seldom dis charged his duties for fear of being; frowned upon, Georzaki Bay is of "Greek" extraction; And his family belong to the Greek Charob This unhappy courtier, in his efforts to plase the Sovereign, even went so far recently, as to djurs the faith of his fathers, renounce the Grock Church; and embrace Islamiem.
