the guides, who were sent to dear llie hills on the left.The Maxim tnpid-fifing guns were placed to the front, when ever they got within range of the enemy, estimated to number 12.000.The latter at fird.made buta feeble resistance, hut when the head of the pass was reached, the action became general.The Gordon Highlanders and the Scottish Borderers stormed the defences of the enemy, which was composed of Swat Mullahosand Umra Khan\u2019s supporters.The British troops advanced with spirit, in spite of the fact that the roadway of the pass was cut away in many places and thttt stone breast-works were constructed at various points, which had to he carried at the point of the bayonet.Fifty of the British forces were wounded, including three officers, severely, and four slightly injured.Only three soldiers of the British forces were killed.The enemy lost five hundred killed and wounded.The first brigade is expected to reach the Swat river to-night.The British troops are

which Btcretsry Gresham w\u2019as advised yesterday, lies in the fact that the belief has existed here for several weeks that baçk of Great Britain\u2019s claim for damages against Nicaragua lay her purpose of taking \u2022forcible possession of certain of Nicaragua's territory.The British Minister of Foreign Affairs, has within the past 48 hours informed Mr.Bayard that Great Britain does not desire an increase of Nicaraguan territory, that her Colonial possessions are alreai^y sufficiently large to satify her ambition, and that all she desires of Nicaragua ¦ is that a proper indemnity shall be paid to the British Consular Agent Hatch and other of Her Majesty\u2019s subjects w ho were driven out of Bluefields during tho troubles in the Mosquito Reservation last autumn.Assurances have also been given that while Great Britain will show' an eafnest determination to collect this idemntty, ihcra is little, if apy, probability that Greytown will bp bombarded by a British fleet in

the condition of the Province financially and otherwise.The conference then adjourned Until to-morrow to permit of its being printed.A meeting to complete arrangements for the complimentary dinner tolheNewfounders ers from the citisens of Ottawa, was held at the Russell House this morning.Mayor Borthw ick was in the chair.It was decided (hat the banquet should be on Tuesday evening, at the Russell, and that the ticket should not include wine.The subscription was placed at S3.As there will be extra expenses, which that figure will not cover, a number of those present put their names down on a guarantee fund for the extras.The only guests will be the Newfoundland visitors and the Governor-Oeneral.M first it was thought of inviting the members of the Government, but the meeting thought that the Ministers would prefer to oome as citizens of Ottawa and that the din ner would be a more distinctive welcome if the only guests were the Newfoundlanders and Her Majesty\u2019s representative.Sub-Committees were appointed to arrange details.As the time between now and Tuos-day is limited, there can he no systematic canvass ol the citizens and it is expected that all who care to attend will send in their nanus to the Mayor or get tickets at the Russell House, w here they will be ready to morrow, Hon.Mr.Angers has sent a oircular letter to his officers, asking them to use greater vigilanoe than usual in regard to examining and quarantining all cattle from the south-western portion of the United States, as it is reported that pleuro-pueumonia exists in Kansas.This

created this afternoon by the arrest of four prominent citizens, Edward Sears jr., A.M.Phillip*.James Phillips, and a telegrapher named Walter Gommory.They were arrested in the bucket shop in the Stock Exchange in the Pugsley building by Chief Clark, Captain Jenkins, Sergeant Baxter and Detective Ring, about 3.40 o\u2019clock.The bucket shop is operated by Baldwin Bros., a well-known stock broking firm of New York and Chicago, and p is understoo I has beei inexistence for a lonit time.A.M.Phillips is said to be the agent and his brother James the clerk, Gommery is the telegrapher and Mr.Sears was a patron.Under the new' Criminal Code, these places are illegal and heavy penalties are provided for conducting and frequenting them.When the four were arrested, .Sergeant Baxter took them to the police station.Of course they all went along quietly.The Chief and Capt.Jenkins remained behind to take charge of the premises.After a short delay the prisoners were admitted to bail and their cases will come np on Monday.All the papers, furniture and money in the Exchange were taken away by the police.There was only about $200.If the raid hud taken place half an hour before, at least

timesiuoeit w as ascribed, as have been so many things of like importance, to the Prince of Wales.It was pot the Prinçe\u2019s brain, however, but his boil that evolved this particular habit.The boil, being of a lively disposition and near neighbour to the Prince\u2019s good right arm, obliged that member to drop the long established pump-handle action and describe, instead, a graceful semicircle.This theory, proudly proclaimed by all the noble array of Anglomaniacs, found wide acceptance.But here comes Mr.Max O'Rell, or M.Paul Blouet, w hichever he may choose, and tells an entirely different story.He calmly declares that it was no boil, but a joke, that started the high handshake.And the joke had nothing whatever to do w ith the Prince of Wales, but was the personal property of a wealthy and titled ami, we may presume, capricious French hostess, who chose to greet her guests in this way at a certain fancy ball.The world, however, as the world is apt to do, took the thing seriously, and so the fashion was fixed.Whom are we to believe, the Frenchman or the Anglomaniacs Î And to whom is the honour actually due, the lady or the I*rince f The most likely solution of the problem is that the high handshake, like many other great benefits conferred upon mankind, was evolved from two giant minds at one and the same time.\u2014Chicago Tribune.Have you seen our new sample

Mr.James Henry DilzieTs motion in favor of second ballots in Parliamentary elections where no candidate receives an absolute imjoritv.The vote was 132 to 72.The Daily News learns that a private

week.The debate in the House of Commons as to the British aud Egyptian sphere of influence in Africa, he said, had astonished him.France opposed decidedly the pretensions of the Royal Niger Company, whioh aimed to monopolize trade in a vast region.The negotiations as to the territory affected by the Company\u2019s claims were now in progress.As to the Upper Nile region, France demanded that England state her claims explicitly, France would reserve her decision and liberty of action pending England's reply.It was advisable to abstain from imprudent statements.He preferred, however, not to make any affirmations likely to hinder the present negotiations.lie was convinced that when the time of decision should come, the two great nations would find means of reconciling their interest* with

anil into more languages thu,n any other hook.A recent Spanish editor, Don Lope* de Fa bra, enumerates 150 editions of the Spanish masterpiece in foreign languages.That com-puration is certainly short of the tfuth.Not only are there more translations in English of \u201cDon Quixote\u201d than any other language, but it is England which from the first has done more honor to the author\u2019s work than any other country.Tne first critical edition of \u201cDon Quixote\u201d iu Spanish, with the first life of Cervantes, by Mayans y Siscar, was published in London in 1738, more than fotty years before the Spaniards had aroused themselves to do honor to their greatest writer.This edition, in four handsome volumes, was printeii sumptuously in all the glory of the Tonson press, under the

before the German Reed entertainment started, one of the most celebrated of burlesque actresses.Although (on her own authority) she is said to have been born on January 1st, 1&18, she was probably older, for we have records of her appearance as far back os IS29, at tho old \\ auxhall Gardens, at a concert given after a performance of Rossini\u2019s \u2018Barber of Seville,\u2019 in which Fanny Ayton, Giubilei.and Pellegrini took part.Tom Cooke waa then conductor, and it was a year before the long-distant time when Sir Henry Bishop took the musical management of the gardens, and wrote for them many new celebrated songs, among them \u2018My Pretty Jane.\u2019 Mrs.German Reed, or, as she was then called.Miss Priscilla Horton, is said to have had a.remarkably fine contralto voice, and even twenty years ago it was certainly of a very powerful, though somewhat rongh, character.She was playing at the old Surrey theatre as far back as 1829, wheo she appeared in plays by Sheridan Knowles tyad Mias Mite ford.Her Ariel in the r/vival of \u2018The Tempest, by Macready, in 1838, was much spoken of in our fathers\u2019 days, and before 1840 Miss Horton had appeared at the English opera.She, in 1842, played Philidel in the revival of Purcell\u2019s 'King Arthur,\u2019 and, later on she took part in the graceful extravaganzas or burlesques of Planche.The celebrated German Reed entertainments grew out of an Tllostruteà Gathering\u2019 given in March, 1855, by Miss P.Horton at St.Martins Hall, Mr.German Reed asbisiingin the entertainment.Itcon-aisled mainly of characteristic

giving the Roman Catholic Aroh-bishop of Chicago the power to aat as a corporation and hold real estate of any description exempt from taxes, was reported favorably in the House to-day by the Chairman of the Committee on Revenue, a motion was France\u2019s Martial Strength.France has lately been engaged in a specie* of stock-taking with results the reverse of satisfactory.For in spite of the money that has been spent so lavishly and in such a patriotically unstinted manner since the conclusion of the great war of 1870, she finds her army inferior to that of Germany and her navy to that of England.Whereas the German Emperor has ready for action a force of 550,000 men, France\u2019s standing army does not exceed 406,000 men, 60,000 of whom are in Algeria, while her reserves are likewise inferior both in number and efficiency to those of Germany.With regard to the navy, France has only 75 ironclads, whereas Great Britain has 192, of double the tonnage of the French and of greater speed.Yet England spends only about $10,000,000 per annum more upon her navy than does her neighbour across the Channel.This is all the more serious when it is borne in mind that instead of having but one naval rival as formerly.Franco now has four, one of which, Germany, is growing all the time iu importance, and by the opening of the Baltic canal is bringing her basis of operation four days nearer France.French taxpayers have every reason to grumble.They have been so liberal in responding to the demands of the Government upon their purses for purposes of defence, that they had a right to expect that the safety of their country was assured, whereas they now find from the mouths of their own statesmen that this far from being tho case.\u2014New York Tribune.Pitcher's CaMwii and carried

do posits, of which asbestos is one, are very rich, and only neel capital to work them.The Island too, is a good a^ricul tural country.Un on with Canada would alter the whole face of things.Money and population would flow in, and in the course of a very few years, Newfoundland would enjoy a p isition in the Dominion which would make her the envy of her sisters.The people are industrious and frugal, and while there arc, doubtles many poor, as a matter of fact, there are, also, many men of large means.A railway line across the Island, running through rich tracts of territory, and opening up the country for the enterprising, is projected.Fishing and shipping have, for years, been the chief occupation of Newfoundland\u2019s inhabitants.Union with Canada would open up other industries, and add wealth and material advancement to the country.There is not a particle of truth in the rumor, industriously circulated in cerlain .quarters, that the Hon.Mr.Angers is about to resign his seat in the Cabinet and return to the Bench.At great personal sacrifice, he left the Bench, and re-entered politics.At a crucial period in our history, he saved the Province from financial ruin For his conduct on that occasion, Quebec can never be too grateful.As Minister of Agriculture he has already made a fine name for himself, among the statesmen of the day, and more is confidently expected of him.At present, he could ill be spared from the Government.But that calamity need not be feared, for Mr.Angers is not going to retire.Have you seen our new samp\u2019e books of Wedding, Invitation and

\u201cThe French shurediffijulty is more sent -uental than real.I have heard some talk nac it would prevent Canada looking tavor-bly up>u the proposal for Confederation, as the French in this

between the Newfoundland delegates and the sub Committee of Council was held in the Premier\u2019s office this morning, all the delegates and the four members of the sub Committee being present Sir Mackenzie Bowell was elected President and Mr.J.L.Payne was appointe 1 Secretary.The meeting was private and it is understood that itwasagreed that thj terms discussed should be kept private until the delegates on both sides have reported to their respective Governments, This morning\u2019s session was merely preliminary and lasted less than two hours.It is understood that it was agreed that the Newfoundland delegates should prepare a settlement showing the exact financial position of the Island.This they are engaged to-night preparing and will submit to-morrow morning.The Canadian delegates will, it is said, submit the terms w hich Sir Charles Tapper was authorized to propose to the Tkorburn Government when he visited Newfoundland iu 1888, as the basis on which the present negotiations will rest, such variations to be made as the changed conditions of affairs necessitate.It will be remembered that the feeling in the Island was so strongly against Confederation at that time that the proposal from Canada was not even discussed, and the terms which he was prepared to offer were not published at the time, and they were first made public in the Newfoundland correspondence of January 22nd last.THE TERMS THEN OFFERED.1.Eighty ceuts per head of population to 400,000.2 Canada would give §150,000 per annum in bounties to fishermen.This to be largely increased until it would reach every owner of a boat.3.\tCanada would take over the debt of the colony in proportion of the debt of the Dominion, and allow the Local Legislature 5 per cent, on the excess, if any.4.\tThe Dominion would pay the expense of the Governor and Government House.5 The Do ninion would pay for a battery of artillery, which would be raised in Newfoundland.6.\tThe Dominion would pay for rai'roads and other public works, leaving nothing to be provided by the colony except roads, bridges and education.7.\tDominion would pay §150,000 (or more, if necessiry), for the Crown Lands of the colony.8.\tDominion would efficiently protect the fisheries and arrange for re-stocking the exhausted waters by artificial propigatiou.In adiliti\u2019in to this it is believed that the Newfoundland delegates will ask for increas-d in.ill facilities, the completion of the Is »ud railway and the establishment of a ferry letweeu its terminus and some point in (\u2019apa \u2022 reton.Besides this they will probably urge that some immediate financial assistance should he given so .vs to save the colony from lukruptcy which threatens it.This is a ough outline of the direction the negotiations will prohaldy take, Lut, of course, it U largely pcculative.OSCAR WILDE ARRESTED.QUEENSRERRY THREATENS VEN (} EA NCE.OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.London, April 5\u2014The Old Bailey Court rcom was crowded almost to suffocation this morning when Mr.Carson resumed his speech in behalf of the Marquis of Queensberry.It would be his painful duty, he said, to put upon the witness stand men who would speak freely of the nature of their connection with the plaintiff, Wilde.The ages of these men varied from 18 to 22 years.They were of the class of servants, valets, etc., not belonging to Mr.Wilde\u2019s station in life, not interested in literature or art, yet they addressed this distinguished dramatist by his Christian name, Oscar, he in turn calling them Charlie, Freddie, etc.Mr.Carson said he would produce overwhelming evidence of the abominable immorality of this man Wilde.Mir Edward Clarke interrupted Mr.Carson and said he had undertaken a great respon-\u2022ibility in defending Mr.W ilde against the charges made against him by the Marquis of Queensberry In regard to the literature which Mr.Wilde had published and upon which Mr.Carson had ques'ioned him, he (Sir Edward) had come to the painful conclusion that it could not be expected that the jury would find a verdict of guilty on the actual words used by the defendant, viz., th it Mr.Wilde was posing as ^ devotee of unnatural practices.He had consulted with Mr.Wilde in the interim of tl« adjournment of the Court, And in order to save the Court the painful details Connected with the rest of the case, he was prepared to accept a verdict of the Jury in regard to Mr.Wilde\u2019s literature.The Judge interposed and said if the Jury were justified in agreeing upon a verdict on one part of the case, they must return a verdict of guilty or not guilty as regards thf entire case.The Jury then rendered a verdict of not gnilty, to which Sir Edward Clarke assented, but supplemented their verdict with the declaration that the charges nude by the defendant against Mr.Wilde, which constituted the libel complained of, were true and that they had been made in the public interest.When the verdict was rendere 1, the Mar quis of Queensberry left the dock amid loud cheers.The Judge granted an order requiring Mr.Wilde to pay the costs of the defence.Mr.Wilde and a companion drove from the Old Bailey to the Holbcrn Hotel, where they were joined soon afterwards by Lord Douglas and a companion.The four took luncheon together iu a private rooiri, Wilde\u2019s carriage remaining in front of the hotel.The Evening News received the following letter ftom Oscar Wilde, written upon note paper of the Holborn Hotel :\u2014\u201cIt would have been impossible for me to have proved my case without putting Lord Alfred Douglas in the witness box against his father.He was extremely anxious to go into the witness boX, but I would not let him.Rather than put him in so painful a position I determined to withdraw from the case ami heir upon my own shoulders whatever ignominy and sh^me might result from the prosecution of the Marquis of Queensberry.(Signed) Oscar Wilde.\u201d At 3.39 o'clock this afternoon a solicitor, whose name is not given, applied at the Bow Street Police Court and obtained a warrant for immediate execution.It was learned this afternoon that the warrant issued was granted against Wilde.In an interview this afternoon the Marquis of Queensberry said .-\u2014\u201cI have sent this message to Wilde : \u2018If the country allows you to leave, all the bstrer for the country but if you take my son with you, I will follow wherever you go and shoot you.\u201d Sworn informations have been lodged against several persons mentioned in the trial and some of those whose names were not made public and the civil officers are waiting the authority of the Treasury Department to make the arrests.Oscar Wilde has been arrested and taken to the Scotland Yard Station.It is learoed that the solicitor who applied at the Bow Street Police Court for the warrant for immediate execution was Mr.Lewis, Solicitor of the Treasury.Before Mr.Wilde was taken to his cell, the charge incited by his testimony in Court was read to him.He stood with his hands in his pockets, silent and apparently uncon cerned.\t/ In an interview this afternoon Mr.Alexander, of St.James theatre, sa:d that \u201cThe Importance of Being Earnest\u201d would be kept on the stage pending the public verdict.If he should be compelled to withdraw it some 150 pernons would be thrown out of work, as he had nothing ready to replace it.It is reported that the Criterion, to which \u201cAn Ideal Husband\u201d was to be transferred from the Haymarket, has declined to put the play on the stage.The Daily Chronicle will have a long leader to morrow on the Oicar Wilde cise.It will say :\u2014\u201cEither Mr.Carson\u2019s brief contained a series of the wickedest slan lers, or the prosecutor perjured himself unspeakably.\u201d The Daily Telegraph will say to-morrow in a leader on Wilde\u2019s case:\u2014\u201cIt was a just verdict and must be held to include with W ilde the tendency of his peculiar career, the meaning and the infl leuce of his teachings and all the shallow and specious arts by which he attempted to establish a cyIt and even set up new schools of literature and social thought.\u201d The Wild Flowjara ol Canada.That the whole Oomiuion should be abloom from early spring to autumn's shortening days witli the most interestiog wild flowers in the world is cause for rejoicing, and there is recognition of it wherever the English tongue is spoken.The Canadians have been ignorant of their own wild flowers, while foreigners praise is lamentable but really easily accounted for.There has been till now no adequate work on the Wild Flowers of Canada.Judges of these things say that Canadians will have an opportunity beginning next Saturday seldom equalled in any country for seeing and knowing all about the wild flowers.There is being published in portfolio form all the Wild Flowers of Canada with descriptions and colored plates.These for a short time are to be sold for the small sum of 15 cents each portfolio, there being sixteen flowers in each portfolio.The dealers iu Quebec will receive orders for them.After dinner use Adams\u2019 Tutti Frutti.aids

Kksctr\u2014S<.>uthani|iton, Aprils\u2014 The steamer \u201cNonnannia\u201d arrived this morning with detail-* of the rescue of the crew of the British ship\tin mid ocean, on March 24.1 he \u201cOrno,\u201d whieh sailed .from New York.March 21, for Liverpool, was sighted Aiurcii 24.with a heavy list and signa lintr for ns-istance, as tbe ship was about to sink.Tlie \u201cNornian-nia\u2019 lowered a lifeboat, which was capsized in the heavy sea, but no lives were lost A second boat was lowered and was successful in getting within fifty yards of the \u201cOrno,'\u2019 which was as near as it was safe to apprrach, owing to the tremendous sea.There were on board the \u201cOrno\u201d 29 men and women and one baby.A life buoy line was got out and a I on board were rescued, though it'was a perilous undertaking.All of the rescued ones w-re compelled to Jtmq into the sea and lie picked up by the lifeboat.The baby was put into a bag and'thrown over board and was hauled into the boat by the rescuers.The rescue occupied eight hours, dining which there was great excitement on boat\u2019d the \u201cNormannia.\u201d The li eboat was compelled to make four trips in order to get all the shipwrecked ones on board the st amer.The lioat was commanded by the second officer.The passengers on Iwird the \u201cNo-mannia\" took up a collection of 8500 for the crew of the lifeboab Collision* at Sra\u2014The dangers of the sea are many.Not the least of these is the jiossi-bility of collision.Although science 1ms done much for ship-building, it has not yet produced a practically unsinkable ship, nor under present circumstances would it lie pjssiblethat all ocean vessels should possess that quality.Therefore, even should the great express steamers have it in the fullest degree, the great majority of other steamers might not.For that reason the pos-ibility of serious results froltl collision at sea is always to be apprehended and the po-sibility of collision itself always remain a danger greatly to be feared, unless there should lie some way of detecting thé apnroach of vessels toward each other.A French electrician claims to have discovered that by means of certain electrical appliances, approaching steamers may lie warned in time to prevent collision.The experiments made were, it is stated, very successful in Show, ing this to be fios-sible.If this obtains only as concerns the steamer\u2014which for certain reasons it is confined to\u2014it would help to eliminate to a very great degrfce the danger of collision on the ocean.It ought as well tie of great service to the steamer in thick and foggy weather.It is timely invention certainly and, if entirely practical, should prove of immense advantage to the navigation of ocean steamers.Something is needed to supplant the continual blowing of the steamer\u2019s whistle, which is as unsatisfactory in its results as it is a nuisance to the passenger.It is quite time that scie neb came to the aid of the mariner to enable him Id detect and* therefore, avoid certain of the tfan-gtifsoi the sea.\u2014X Y Maritime Register For Bklow\u2014The yawl \u201cSalmon Queen,\u201d with

comprises some 214 square miles of Government lands and 50,000 acres of pri/ate lands.At a low estimate, ami excluding ties and cedar, then\" an- a thousand million f«*-t of lumber on the property, nine-tentha'of which will go into the îSt Francis River.The purchase includes the Brompton mills and Windsor property.It is expected that all of this lumber will be put into the Royal Paper Mills Co\u2019s works at East Angus, where they expect to build large saw mills ; they will then be jible to saw their lumber there instead of at Brompton Fallsand thus effect a considerable saving in tin* way of slabs and refuse fuel for their mills there.There is some talk about the Company erecting a large ground wood mill at Brompton Falls with a sulphite mill, for the purpose of making pulp for the

the sixteen-year-old and as yet unmarried Lady Sibell Mackenzie into a full-Hedged peeress of the realm under the titles of Countess of Cromartie, Viscountess of Tarhat, and Baroness of Maeleod and of Castlehaven.The UazeUt vouchsafes the information that Her Majesty's patent \u201ccontinues'the dignities in question to Lady Sibell, and in order to comprehend this somewhat unusual expression, it is necessary to explain that a considerable amount of controversy has existed since the death of the la Karl of Cromartie, two years ago, as to whether his peerages have become extinct, had fallen into abeyance, or were to be iulie rited by the eldest of his two children, both girls The earldom of Cromartie has a somewhat peculiar history.Conferred by Queen Anne upon Sir George Mackenzie, who had obtained his first step in the peerage from King James II, titles as well estates were forfeited to the Crown by the third earl, who was one of the principal leaders of the Jacobite rising of 1746.His son recovered possession of the vast estates, though not of his father\u2019s peer ages, as a reward for his spri-mes in the Ame rtcan War for Independence.His grand niece and sole heiress, Miss Anne Hay-Mac kenzie, married the late Duke of Sutherland, ami, as the Queen was exceedingly fond of her, she in 1801 revived in her favor the peerages of Cromartie, Tarbat, Maeleod and Castlehaven, which had b^en attainled by the treason of the third earl.It would sp-p^ar that the patent conferring these dignities upon the Duchess was not so clear and definite as it should have :>een, since its terms left some doubt as to w hether the peerages were fresh creations or merely revivals.If the latter, they might be construed as Scotch dignities, whereas if they were fresh creations they could only be looked upo» »s titles of the United Kingdom, since by the Act of Union between Scotlancf and England the Crown is debarred from adding to the number of Scottish peers that existed at that time.Then, too, the patent, while it provided for the inheritance of the titles by the second son of the Duchess of Sutherland, left the question open as to whether, in default of male issue, any daughter that he might have could inherit his dignities.The portance of deciding as to whether these peerages wore mprely a Scotch revival or a fresh United Kingdom creation lay in this, that in the event of the former, the eldest daughter\u2014that is to say.the Lady Sibell\u2014 would become Countess of Cromartie in her own right ; wherea», in the other case, the dignities would have remained in abeyance until one of the two girls had died.Thus on the death of Lady Brayc, in 1862, her barony fell into abeyapoe ing Baby\u2019s Own Soap.The prize-winning advertisements will become our property, and iv*
