accounts of the actions of the Gormans during the recent troubles in Cameroons territory from those heretofore made public.The trouble originated between a German trader and natives, who fina ly disembowelled the German and cut .ff his head.When the German men-of-war inaugurated the bombardment as a punishment upon the natives, no attention was paid to the rights of foreign re idents at the mission.Several houses belonging to and occupied by English traders and missionaries were demolished and one British subject was severely wounded.When the Germans lauded they searched indiscriminately all premises for refugees and arms.The re silence of the British Vice-Consul was ruthlessly invaded despite his protest.In many cases English merchants and missionaries were compelled to submit to a search of their premises at the point if the pistol.There is a well-defined report that the authorities are to-day considering the question of treason or libel in the following sentences of Parneil\u2019e speech delivered yesterday at Miiltown : \"Yon assembled here are relics of a noble race not quite driven into the Atlantic ; you are the descendants of men whom Cromwell tried \u2018to send to hell or Connaught\u2019 and only succeeded in sending them as - far as Connaught.During many centuries you beffl d and defeated the artempts of the English enemy to drive you from the soil of sacred Ireland, which I believe is for you and all men.This \\\\ est of our country shows such an example to the Irish race as will enable ns to stand shoulder to (boulder and march from the West to the Eiac and recover inch by inch, slowly but surely, every rood of laud which has been robbed from us.\u201d A Government stenographer is reliably said to be quietly following Parnell.Herbert Gladstone, addressing a meeting at Leeds, to-night, said tbe fact could not be denied that England was on the eve of a great crisis.He had no misgivings in regard to the franchise, the future fate of which would have a great effect upon the composition of political parties.He anticipated a renewal of the Crimes Act in Ireland, and was of opinion the adoption of many of its provisions would strengthen the laws governing England.* GERMANT-.Berlin, January 27.\u2014The North German GuzeWe routes the starement that the West Arnctn C inference has recognized England\u2019s claims to the Niger Delta.ITALY.Rome, Jan.27\u2014In the Chamber of Deputies, to-day.Moncini stated that the Government favored colonization within certain limits provided the occupation was justified by economy and political interests of the country.Italy, he said, would not fulfil her mission if sne remained an idle spectator while other Powers were busily engaged in colonial proj-cts.The Italian delegates to the Congo Conference had been fully instructed as to wtiat part they were tp take in the debates in regard to future annexations.It is understood the Italian Government has definitely abandoned the intention of an attempt to annex Tripoli as a result of an argent message from England, representing tha( aD Attack on Tripoli and warfare with Turkey, which would doubtless follow, would be very impolitic at present.ANOTHER DESPATCH FROM WOLSELEY.NO TIDINGS YET OF FORCE.STEWARTS London, Jan.27\u2014General Wolseley telegraphs this afternoon frum Korti that he expects to receive news from Stewart to-night or td-morrow.A large convoy was sent by Wolseley yesterday from Korti to Gakdul wells, and it is to proceed in the direction taken by Stewart with all possible speed.The expedition, which started Saturday from Haradan, under Gen.Earle, is making favorable progress and has not yet been disturbed.Kir Stafford Northcote, in a speech at Exeter yesterday, said Eugland waa breathlessly

and the Recorder\u2019s Court, respondent ; the city of Montreal, mis en saute, and the Attorney-General.intervenant.This is a case of considerable importance, its decision involving the consideration of the distribution of legislative powers to the Dominion Parliament and Provincial Legislature.The action, it will be remembered, arose out of the passage by the city of by-law No.130, \u201cTo abate nuisances by smoke,\u201d which became law in 1882.The appellants were prosecuted for contravention of this by-law, and being brought before the Recorder were condemned and fined for the offence.The appellants appealed from this decision to the Superior Court, but the Recorder\u2019s judgment was confirmed by Judge Doherty, and consequently they brought the matter to appeaL They denied the jurisdiction of the Recorder on the ground that the matters charged against them constituted a misdemeanor and they were entitled to a trial before the Court of Queen\u2019s Bench ; that the Legislature of Quebec had no power to vest the Recorder\u2019s Court with power to try summarily, and asked that the by-law be consequently declared illegal.The Court of Appeals this morning unanimously confirmed the decision of the Superior Court, holding that the by-law in question was not a matter of criminal law only within the jurisdiction of the Dominion Parliament, but municipal legislation and perfectly within tne competence of the city of Montreal to pass.The second day of Carnival has proved even brighter and more inspiring than the first.The mercury has fallen consider ably, while the sky is clearer than that of yesterday and the sharp air makes people fiurry along briskly to keep warm.Some of the visitors from across the line appear to be feeling the frosty air greatly and recent arrivals speak of the change from an over-heated sleeping-car to the sharp wind that cuts along the streets.The hall of the Windsor was crowded and the staff kept busy in every direction.An occasional snow-shoer in his blanket costume was the observed of all, and appeared pleased with the notice he attracted.A curious result of climate was no ticeable in one individual, after walking rather unsteadily to the counter for a match with which to light his cigar, filled his vest pocket with a bundle of tooth-picks, and went complacently away.The Ice Palace showed to perfection, the final touches having been put to the building and the poles and scaffolding taken away.An improvement has been made by cutting down part of the supporting towers, thus apparently increasing the height of the central one.The Coudora is also rearing its glittering height in steadily increasing proportions and will soon be completed.The Ice Loon was inspected by a large number of people, but does not show off to the same advantage as under the electric light.The toboggan hills are again in full swing and are receiving a largo share of the patronage of visitors.The Carnival at the Victoria Rink tonight is a brilliant affair.The office on St.Francois-Xavier street has been besieged all day by people anxious to secure tickets, either for skating or to watch the performance of others, but the directors have wisely determined to make the afiair a pleasant one by preventing over-crowding and will only issue a limited number of tickets.The Governor-General and Lady Lans-downe arrived about a quarter-past eight.Their arrival was announced by Captain Clapham by bugle call.The skaters formed into a double line, through which His Excellency passed to the dais.The unveiling of the group of statuary then took place and were illuminated bv means of electric lights placed in the root and in the directors' gallery.These lights were equal to 12,Q00 candles in power and passed through colored glasses, so as to change the color of the stutuary ; this is quite a novelty, as it has never been seen in Canada before.The hockey match between the Ottawaa and Victorias of Montreal was won by the Ottawa!' The torch light procession from the Island took place between eiaht and nine o\u2019clock and waa witnessed by thousands.It was a grand affair, but owing to the extreme cold was not equal to expectations.SPECIAL FROM TORONTO.Toronto, Jan.27\u2014The executive af the Ontario Alliance, at a meeting to-night, appointed llev.B.B.Keefer, Hamilton, as agent to act under the direction of the business committee to visit the varions counties and forward the adoption and enforcement of the Scott Act.In the suit of Delay vs.Kirkpatrick and his partner for $2,500 loss through alleged negligence in transacting a loan, the jury brought in a verdict to-day for the defendant.The ballot-box stuffing case against Wiggins, returning officer, and Franks, tbe polling clerk has been postponed till the next Assizes at the request of the prisoners\u2019 counsel.\"True bills \u2019 wero returned by the grand jury.The $100,000 will case of Cameron vs Cameron has been settled in favor of tbe defendants, the plaintiff s case falling through.George Washington.BILL NYE\u20193 OPINION OF A PRESIDENTIAL ANOMALY.Says Bill Nye : Now that workingmen are clearing away the scaffolding from the tallest monument in the world, we are led to inquire, Who was George Washington ?He was the father of his country for one thing.He gave this country a start that it has never fujly recovered from.He was also first in peace, first in war and first in tbe hearts of bis countrymen.He did not take position on account of the salary.At the time the pay was not large, yet George attended to the work well.He would get up before daylight and work till lats into tbe night.He very seldom took a holiday, and used to work right on throngh the 22nd of February as he did other days.George Washington waa different from some of our modern statesmen in many respects.He scorned to enter a convention and grapple with the delegates all day.He did not seek to be President so hard as some have since done.He simply placed himself in the hands of his friends and let nature take her coarse.The more I study tbe character of George Washington, the more I regret his untimely death.We need him almost every day.If he could see bow badly his orphan country needs him sometimes, it seems as though he would almost open the door of Mt.Vernon smoke house and come forth.George Washington attracted a great deal of notice, even in his time, by telling the truth.Think what a curiosity he would be now.And yet truth ia within the reach of all.We may accustom ourselves to almost anything if we begin gradually and work our way up to it.George Washington to-day would no doubt be regarded as a freak of nature, and yet he told the truth without effort and without his notes.He need to entertain his friends through tbe long winter evenings by allowing them to tie his hands and feet and then blindfold him, and on top of all this he would tell the truth for hours at a time.He was what we call in science an anomaly.But he had to give up at last, and finally he yielded to the unequal strain and death ensued.People who contemplate a political career with more or less truth in it should see that they have strong constitutions to begin with.QTTJBBBO We, the undersigned, druggists, take pleasure in certifying that we have uold DR.WISTAR\u20198 BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY for many years and know it to

bat, to >n getting tired if this showy life, looked around for some worlds to conquer.war CORR&SPOSDE.NT.He first smelled powder with the Ciriists in Spain, from whien place he wrote to the 'lime* a series of letters describing the operations, in which he assisted as a volunteer rebel in several battles and sieges.After Don Carlos received hts quietus Burnaby turned his attention to Africa, aettu g out in quest of Chinese Gordon, whom he round busy us usual uear the source of the V\\ nite Nile.It was after his return from this trip that Burnaby prepared for his rule to Kniva.It had been nis intention to accompany General Kaufman s expedition, but tnere were excellent reasons why the Russian Government did not care to have an ohaervaut E igtiah officer takiug notes of the proceeding, and so he had to postpone it.G»p aiu P e l\u2019s experiences on this expedittcu, nis évasion ot the impediments tnrowo in his way by llusnian officials, and tne pluck and determination shown in the ride, are fuitnfully recorded in bis work, and the galiaut officer, and h s no leu faitnful body-servant, have long been living realities in tne minds of those who have read the intere tiug record of the ride to the Khan\u2019s capital It was this journey which intensified cne Captain\u2019s dislike of everything Russian.A mure toteose Russo-phobist never existed eveu among the \u201cJingo \u2019 class, with whom antagonism to Russia was a living faitb.As if to snow woat he was capable of accomplishing, the ride to Khiva was carried oat in the depth of wi< ter.After this exploit Burnaby started for his ride of 2 000 miles thruugn Ana Minor.It was at a tim-j wnen tbe national feeling was at fever heat iu England.ADVXSTCSErf Ïλ TURKEY.Russia's quarrel with Turkey was looked upon by the great mass of the English people as aime 1 against themselves and the slow, and at first apparently timed, policy ot the Government raised a storm of execration among the \u201cJingoes.\u201d Tne excursion through Asia Minor was a mortifying one to the colonel.Everywhere he was received by the Turkisn ifficiils as a representative of the English power, and countless appeals were made to Dim for assistance in the men pending war witn Russia.Glad would Buruaby bate been t» pr tni*e suen assistance, but it seemed long d lerred.V\\ lieu toe war broke out he secured a chance to remain witn the Turkish army as agent for tbe Stafford House Committee tor the relief of the sick and wounded.There is no reason to doubt that Burnaby did bis whole duty as civil agent of that excellent chanty, but he longed for more active work, and the retreat ot the Turkish troope on Constantinople, alter the forcing of the Balkan \u2018 passes by the Ru-sian general, Gourko, furoished the opportunity.Baker Pacha\u2014Colonel Valentine Balter\u2014was there in command of the rear-guard ot the Turkish army, whion, though woru and suffering intensely from exposure and lack of necessaries, kept the advancing Russians at a respectful distance, and for six fateful hours held them with desperate tenacity, wmle the mam army pursued its retreat uumolestel.CANDIDATE Foil PARLIAMENT.In this affair tne gigantic Guardsman Bur-n*by and the unfortunate B.ktr disp.ayed soldierly qualities of the highest character.It was during this retreat that Radford, Burnaby\u2019s servant, died of typhus fever, and the Colouel paid an cli quent tribute iu his book to this faitnful and devoted follower.The Beaouaatield Government at la»t managed to come somewhat near to Burnaby\u2019s idt-as, and no \u201cJingo\u201d in England applauded the vigorous course of action pur*ued by that Ministry more than the Colonel.He was anxious to find scope for the expression of those views in Parliament, and so contested Birmingham in tne Conservative interest.His red hut theories of English supremacy, abuse of Mr.Gladstones pacific foreign policy, and his refusal to believe in degeneracy of the English race\u2014except the anti-Jingoes\u2014made him always popular with the crowd.AN \u201cADMIRABLE CRICHTON.\u201d Physically, as has been said, he was a model Horse Guardsman.Six feet four in height and well-proportioned, he looked like a son of Aoakim in his uniform.A highly-trained athlete, of great muscular power, he frequently amused his friends by carrying a couple of pet ponies under his stalwart arms ; an accomplished swordsman, a master of several languages, and a writer always interesting and seldom if ever egotistical, though he bad earned the right to be.Colonel Burnaby, had he lived in earlier years would have been accepted as an Admirable Crichton, or, if, as the genealogists claim, the first King Edward (Longshank*) was his ancestor, he in soldierly action as in physical stature came nearest to the popular idea of the warlike king.S .cially, he was a man who made many friends.He was a strong lover, a cordial friend.It is only necessary to reaii hie books to get an id*aoi bis int-nee virility.He struck straight Ifom the shoulder at bis enemies ; nis froatU were many.He waa married in 1$79| being successful in winning the hand of an heiress.The only drawback to the happiness of their wedded life was the ill-health of Mrs.Burnaby.To sum up.there are few men whose loss the whole world will regret so tn ich as that of C lonel Fred.Burnaby, from vahise peu migiit have been expected the brightest accouut of the war in which, however, he has met a soldier\u2019s death.ADDRK.S3INO A WARD MEETING.A gentleman in this city, who was a resident of Birmingham at the time cf the last general election iu Eoglaod, describes Colonel B irnaby\u2019s canvass ot that borough, showing his genial, easy-going manner, which took immensely with the people.He was addressing a ward meeting, which his political opponents had packed with a noisy crowd who drowned the colonel\u2019s voice.Finding that he could not continue and be heard, Burnaby nonchalantly drew a meerschaum from his pocket, and smoked, remarking, \u201cGentlemen, when you get tired I\u2019ll begin a^aiu \u201d H- ti-iishe l his smoke when the noise ceased, kuecked the ashes out of his pipe, and then advancing to the front oi the platform, where a good view could be had, the giant guardsman said significantly :\u2014\u201cNow, then, gentlemen, point out to me the first man who attempts to make a disturbance and I'll attend to him.\u201d He finished undisturbed.It savs much for the colonel\u2019s success that, though a Conservative and fighting in a Liberal or Radical stronghold ayainst such men as John Bright und\u201dJoseph Chamberlain, he came within 1,000 votes of the latter, though Cnamherlain was \u201con his own stoop\u201d and imagined he had a walk-over.It may be remarked that the Liberal papers severely criti^ed Burnaby\u2019s smoking as \u201cungentle-»rau™\u201d What they called disturbing a meeting and drowning an opponent\u2019s voice they forgot to mention.\u2014Bouton Globe.WASHINGTON LETTER, (From Our Rvjular Corrzxpondtnt.) Washington, Jan.25.1385\u2014The women are here again calling atteution to their rights.Year alter years, for sixteen years, prominent lights of the sisterhood have rallied at the National Capital to renew their demand for suffrage, and to review the trials and trinmphs which the cause has undergone in the twelve months that have passed since last they met-They do not receive overwhelming encouragement at the White House on Capitol Hill, cr in political conventions, but they are undaunted and insist that the cause is growing, growing every day.It is, alas, too true that locks are growing whiter, and that age an^ death have devastated their ranks, but cew recruits come forward every year.Then tnere are more school trustees, and deputy marshalesses, and postmistresses, and common council wumen and jurywomen among their numbers.So the struggle goes bravely ou and the spark of hope is kept alive.In convention, they adopted resolutions reject' iug as dogmas of Judaism the teaching that woman was an after-thought in creation, that her sex was a misfortaue, and that marriage was a condition of subordination ; and further called upon the Christian ministry, aa leaders of thought, to enforce the idea that in true religion there is neither male nor female, neither bond nor free, but all are one.It was an interesting sight to observe the eager crowns that thronged the meetings just held hce by evangelist Moody.High and low, rich and poor, saiuta and sinners, literally all classes and conditions of men and women went, or tried to go.And os one watched tbe sea of faces, one toald not help wondering wriat had brought them there.Primarily, of course, it was the mao himself, wno has made his name familiar to half tbe glob;*.But no one, however indifferent or prejudiced could listen to Mr.Moody long without feeling that he hts power, or without understanding som-ithiug if what it was tnat held and infl icnced the lowest and vilest people of Chicago or London, and the highest culture of Oxford and Cambridge.He is a man who feels that he has a message, and that nothing on earth is so important as to tell it.He is more than that.He is a man who feels that his message is greater than himself.Congress'h&t not acchmpliahed much this weik.Tne subjects that have coma up for cou sidération bave bien dull, and both the Senate and the House devoted much time to obituary oratory over the late Senator An-t.iouy of Rhode Island and Representative Evme deceased of South Carolina.Indian appropriations have been dir cussed in the House, and the Oklahoma lands question have been tefore both branches of Congress.Tnus the whole In lian question has been sprang anl no question, probably, is more provocative of taik.The fact that tue best use the Indian can make ot land is to lease thousands of acres to syndicates of cattle king* at a few cents per acre yearly, while there are thousands of white people who have no land and would like to get some, has impressed legislators writh the idea that Congress must take hold cf the matter.Not only for the purpose of taking care of the In-diaus, but for the purpose of taking care of the white p-cple, Senator Vest, of Missouri, declares that Oklahoma belongs to the Red men and tuiuks the white settler should be ma le to go, whiL Representative O\u2019Neill, of Missouri, thicks there is no need cf carrying tne idea of sacreiuess of treaties to the verge of idiocy.^The favorite loafing place of Congressmen had bceu spoiled.The row of screens in rear of iha seats in the House, behind which mem-biis collected in order to j.ke, tell stories and smoke, have all been taken away.The alleged reason was to promote ventilation, but tne real object was to promote legislation.The next improvement will be electric bells connecting with each member\u2019s desk, and all the pages audufli-ers of the Hsuse who now crowd around the ÿpeakei\u2019s platform will be relegated to tho space behind tbe seats, wnere there will be indicators to direct them to any member wno rings.Senator Garland,of Kansas, has left tho city again, and cabinet builders and aspirants are nonplused by this second visit.Mr.Garland did nut leave word that he was summoned to Albany, or auihonzs any one to state the character of his errand, but it is understood neverthehss, that he was invited to confer again with Mr.Cleveland.The work of preparation for the inauguration is being pusned along as rapidly as possible.Fhi immense court of tho unfinished Pension buil iing, where the inaugural ball is to be held, is'now the problem before the committee.There is nothing i.bout it now to indicate that it will be a proper setting by the night of the fourth of March, for plumes, beauty, and brilliant costumes.The floor is now heaped with rubbish, the wind whistles through the gaping doorways and windows, and stirs the airtaud sand into motion.SLtill a large force of worn men will make wonderful cuanges in the next few weeks.TR NS.liLANTIC GOSSIP, RUMORS OF A RUPTURE BETWEEN THE VATICAN AND FRANCE DENIED.DISCOVERY BY A LADY PROFESSOR.' New York, Jan.25\u2014The Sun\u2019» cable special «ays :\u2014\u2019 Another long list of miseries has been added to human existence by a lady pro-tensor of hygiene Carpets are denounced as a iurkiug place of disease.Curtains and blinds are highly perilous, for they choke the house by pressing ou its windpipe, and the opening ot winuows does not obviate tho danger for the air should, if possible, be cleansed before admission to a room.Finally, the householder is advised against storing coals for they are lubl* to ferment and give off gases injurious to health.* The ooly persons,\u2019 comments the Pall Malt Gazette, * who are out of danger are the inmaiei ot prison cells, and Mr.\\ ates, of the World, is declared open to severe censure for ms imprudence in garnishing tbe neat seventy of his cell by carpets and other traps of uiseaae trom a fashionable upholsterer.THE VATICAN.A Rome special says * There is no truth in the rumour of a rupture between France and the Vatican.Tnere is no secret reason for the journey of the Nuncio.He has gone to ihs Archiépiscopal See of Beue-vento.While in Rome he assured Cardinal Jacobiui that the hreneh Cabinet wes more than usually conciliatory just now, having regard to the nomination of French bishops.Count Lefebvre de Behame\u2019a relations with the Vatican are particularly cordial.Leo XIII.is not likely to abandon his present cautious attitude toward I ranee, Russia, Switzerland, and Bismarck.FRENCH POLITICAL PARTIES.A cynical critic of the French Republic declares ;hat there are no less than thirty distinct groups in the two l\" rench Chambers, and when ho has exhausted the different sections of tho Monarchists, the Imperialists, the Republicans, and the Anarchists, he winds up with the groups which consist of \u2018the indifférents,\u2019 \u2018the purchaaables,\u2019 \u2018the absten-tionists,\u2019 \u2018the disgusted,\u2019 \u2018the don\u2019t bothers,' and \u2018the let things slides.* CHOLERA MORBC3 ON SALE.Meantime an eminent surgeon writes in alarming tones that ho has been offered an unlimited supply cf specimens of the cnolera bacillus lor the purpose ot microscopic obter* vatiuua.\u2018This implies,\u2019 writes the medical practitioner, \u2018that the would-be contractor has ao adequate quantity of the cholera o orj bus cn hand, either pure or unadulterated or i n process of cultivation.\u2019 THE DRAMA.London is very busy with theatrical amuse menti.Mrs.Langtry hai made a very poor selection in tne \u2018Princesse Georges\u2019 as her opening play, and her only triumph in the piece is due to the beauty of her wardrobe.The adverse verdict of the first night has been confirmed by subsequent audiences, and the drama ends so crudely that there is an almost irrepressible tendency to hiss at the fall of the curtain.Nevertheless the business continues good, aud as many people as ever seem désirons to catch sight of the once adored leader of London fashion.Mile.Harding has been more successful as \u2018Frou Frou\u2019 than as the heroine of \u2018Le Maitro de Forges,\u2019 and has made a decided impression on the heart of London.Meantime the controversy still rages as to the morals of actresses aud the ethics of stage management'.The outspoken cynicism of Mr.Hollingshead, of the Gaiety, which is popularly kuown as the \u201cNudely Theatre \u201d has provoked many rejoinders, and Mr.W.S.Gilbert has declared that the meretricious style of burlesque is on its last leg».The semi-nude burlerque, he says, now frightens away all good authors, for no good comedy stress will appear iu such pieces, and the decent author would have to hear his lines blurted out by half naked women with the manners and accents of kitchen maids.Mr.Toole, our most successful low comedian, has been discoursing in reply to the pessimism of Mr.Burnaud, reminding the editor of Punch, who so severely assails the morality of the stage, that his own wife was an actress, aud claiming that actresses are peculiarly generous.LITERARY NOTES.Two very interesting memoirs have just been published.The first by Henrich Von Cott who, for twenty years was reader to Frederick the Great, gives a better idea of that monarch than that hitherto accepted.He bore the revenues of the Seven Years\u2019 War with the greatest nonchalance, aud in its worst hours talked with calmness about poetry and theology.Voltaire med to make him write some of his pieces of poetry five or six times, aud was most unmerciful id his criticisms.As a proof that he was not heartless his biographer relates that when he heard of the death of his brother and sister he wept and sobbed.THE SIEGE OF PARIS.The recollections of tbe \u2018Siege of Paris,\u2019 by the Comte DTIcrisson, gives a terrible picture of the Empress Eugenie in the last honra of tbe Empire.Her courage had broken down under the military reverses and the hourly dread of an insurrection, and she had aa'urated herself with chloral.She fell into a state of somnambulism, and her eyes took a fixed, staring expression.She neither saw what was passing around her nor understood what was said to her.Then she had to drink coffee to clear her head.She left the Tuileries in such a hurry that she had not time to carry away with her a small travelling bag which she had packed the night before.BheriQ\u2019s Sales for the District of kfast
