WHAT THE WORLD SAYS

It ill underst wal to have bee 3 the wish of ths Queen
to sound three weeks o- • mouth at Cannes; but, for
sanitary mum., the idea has been abandoned. her
Ilajvsty will, however. doubtless not give up • sojourn
in tn. sunny south.

Her Mejesty will he alweat on the Continent about
three weak. in March, and the nuptial. of the Duke of
Albany with the Princes. Hoilhne of Waldeck will
probably take place during the ISaster week.

Businese will soon cone to a dead•lock in the
country districta of England. Magistrates are scarcer
day by day, and in many places it is found impossible
to make up a bench, owing to the number of absentees.

In one of the eastern cluntieme the office of sheriff,
once so coveted and sought-for an honour, ham been
refused by no fewer than seven gentlemen in enocession,
all landed proprietors end on the county roll for
she If, each pleading poverty and total inability to
stand the expense. the Lord-Lieutenant hes, it is
said, after incon3eivable difficulty, net with • gentle-
man who, haring fortunately made his money in
commerce, and purchase I one of the old landed estates
merely as a luxury, will Ls able to pay Lis way and
come forth at the next maims bathe true glories of the
ehrievalty.

A diplomatic scandal of • far in -me damaging char-
acter than the Roostau affair is spoken of with bawd
breath in Pars. It Ii likely to drag through the mire
mote than one unbent statesman wbo has been associ-
ated with Eastern affairs. Rochefort le raking it up
with the determination of a most searching exposure.

The silver wedding of the King and Qiwien of Sweden
will be celebrated with great pomp at Stockholm on
the 6th of June.

Mr. Chamberlain, Flit C. Mike, and Mr. Fawcett
11) tw placed in • little difficulty 'rhea the vote for
the Duke of Albany cm.. on. It I. their intention,
I believe, t k tout of the hooey ; and Mr. Gladstone
hes assured them that they wbi be forgiven if they
absent theme-lee, from the discusaion. Whether their
Radical supporters will he satisfied with this way of
evadinc an eaprvipion of opinion on the subject ef
Royal grants is mother question.

Mutt-in must anon be an enorrrous price; unheard-
of prices are asked and given for sheep in agricultural
districts, last year'eordinery lambs fetch tig from silty
to seventy slid ins apiece. The reason assigned for
this is the greet ice-city of sheep. Lest reel' numbers
died of foot-r.t large flocks disappeared, and owner.
of sheep for years had to give up looping them. This
was oafs of the greatest lows ferment susteln-r1 in the
disastr,us tears 1888 and 1881. Now the few flock-
o wows who still concise sheep are lucky indeed, bat
naturally unwilling to pert with them bsfore the lamb-
ing season; hence the enormous prince salted.
M. Gambetta's Intimates whisper that his mental
condition is scything but satisfactory. Of course
nothing ...ions is meant or hinted at but the Premier
alternates between lite of auger an,l fit. of despondency,
which bode no goof to his sensual health.

Two objections were made by the Conservatives on

lodger claims were made and sustained by the Con-
servatives. In the hotueholders' llst five claims were

were made and sustained by the Liberals.
MILCOXIII ISOM.

The Conservatives made 91 objections to the names
of Liberal voters being retained on the list; of these
15 were for parish relief, one for being an alien, two
for insufficient occupation, arid two on account of
death; 13 objections were sustained, an I eight were
lost. In the cum of two or three of the objections for
pariah relief, Mr. Bowen opposed them on the ground
of the form of notice of objection being bad, and the
Revising Barrister disallowed them on that ground.

POLITICAL LITERATURE AT BRIDPORT.

T, the Alaor.

Pear Mr. Editor,—l rare:y trouble the columns of •
newspaper, except in perusing their contents, so I
presume that your reporter for this district will at
least forgive me if I make mention of him. I noticed
your representative at • specially private meeting of
the Liberal Association last week, and, like myself, he
was not professionally present, but by virtue of his
ruemixnehip. If I rightly si deratosi the preliminary
business, he was requested to observe no public
cogoi,iiin of the proceedings, and promised to respect
the tequest—that wish, I believe, he has respected.
But the Bridport News, the following day, published
the result of the meeting, and this, too, after its repre-
sentative (not present at the meeting) bad been
informed from • member of the executive that the
budness was not to be published. The London papers,
on the day following, coat/deed • 'boast notice, and
no one here nevi ask from what source that ale caw •.
I cannot help deeming it strange that Liberals fail to
see which paper supports their interests. As a tn,mber
of this exoellent association, I am confi,lent it is very
far from working in eezrecy, for the more it. work
and purpose is known the more supp irt it must cam-
mend ,• but there are time, when it is consistent and
wise for any public institution to keep its special
badness, f ira time at least, within it. c ,nfiuts. here,
however, the wish was straightway expressed, and by
the Braport Nots igntved. After this, Bri.lp ri
Liberals will surely lack discernment if they do not
more than ever recognise the journal which ha. sup-
ported and fought for their cause through triumph
ant loso. Thanking you to find space for this I am,
air, your, truly,
