THE RISING IN SERVIA.

A Renter's telegram, dated Belgrade, Nov. 19,
says :

_
In view of the victories obtained by the Royal troops
over the insurgents, Madame Siebold, a Russian lady,
is endeavouring to obtain a promise from the foreign
representatives here that they will intercede with King
Milan for the pardon of the members of the Radical
Committee, at present, confined in the fortress of
Belgrade.
About 120,000 rifles remained in the hands of the
militia after the war. Twenty-seven thousand of
these were called in last spring and sold by auction
here. They were subsequently resold by merchants
to peasants in the interior, especially at Valjevo.
From the besieged districts 300 00 more riflr-s have
been taken. In the case of the weapons soli by
the Government in the spring objections were
raised by the Opposition to their being so sold
before sufficient Koka-Mauser new pattern rifles were
in the country and their efficiency proved upon the
field of battle. The militia' y establishment of Servia
at present c msists of 18,000 men serving with the
eolotirs, 82,000 reserve troops, 55,000 first.class and
55 000 second-class militia, making a total force of
210 000 men.

The Pope Miloje, a school teacher named Pronlo-
witch, and a peasant from the Boljevatz district were
shot to-day, in conformity with the decision of the
court martial, which condemned them to death for
being the principal authors of the insurrection in the
Boljevatz district.

SNAKES AND WILD BEASTS IN INDIA,

It is clear, from the Official Gazette of India, that
sportsmen need .not fear . that . beasts of pray are
likely to become extinct in India for some time to
come, for the number of people killed by wild animals
and by snakes was actually larger last year than in
that which preceded it, the numbers being 22,125,
against 21,427. It is true that snakes were ac-
countable for by far the larger proportion of thi
great total-19,519, while tigers slew but 895, wolves
278, leopards 27, jackals 859, and alligators 202,
One hundred and sixty-fi,e persons were killed
by other wild animals, chiefly, we suppose, bears and
buffaloes. It will be a matter of surprise to many to
hear that jackals ktll nearly as many pf-ople in India
as do tigers. Certainly no books on Indian sports and
adventures would lead one to suppose that this was
the case. We read gPnerally of jackals being noisy
and troublesome, and as hunting small animals in
packs ; but that they are really as destructive as tigers
will he entirely new to most people. During the year
the Governmant paid rewards for the destruction of
18,591 wild animals, and 322,421 amtkea.—Everaing

CUTTINGS FROM AMERICAN PAPERS.

"Why do you mutter that way when you read ? "
hiked a man of en old negro who set mumbling over a

There are some fellows who can't remember any-

MESSRS. MOODY AND SANKEY IN
LONDON.

Having completed the allotted period of work at
Islington on Monday, Messrs. Moody and Sankey
opened another fortnight's mission on Tnesday after.

worth, which had been placed at the disposal of the
committee Dr. Watney. Ample space being avail
able, a building of corrugated iron, similar in con-
struction but of somewhat great )r capacity than that
recently used at Llington, has been erected, at a
cost of £!,500, and has a commodious " inciniry
room" running at right angles with the main build.
kg. The opening service, which Was attended by
about 3.000 persons, was commenced by the singing of
hymn No. 57, "Guide me, 0 then great Jehovah,"
followed by prayer by the Rev. E. H. Hopkins, of
Holy Trinity, Richmond, after which Mr Sankey sung
hymns No. 18 and 34. Mr. Moody then addre.sed
those present on the necessary qualifications for 'meet as
in the work before them. The first must be faith ;
for nine-tenths of the battle WAR won if they expected
to be successful. They would certainly bud that the
men who left the deepest impression on the world had
been men of faith. And their courage always fol.
lowed faith. Further, they should he hopeful. Many
People nowadays had got under the juniper tree.
Neither let them be afraid of a little enthusiasm.
People an soon got frightened when they saw a little
life exhibited. It was enthusiasm which carried on the
work of Christ after He left the world. The man who
took enthusiasm into his businees was the suceepsful
man. Why Was Woli•eley so general a favourite
amor gst Engli.hmen ? Because he wes a man of en-
thusiasm ; his name WAS as good as a thousand men.
And Garibaldi, to,, who was cast into prison on his
way to Rome in 1867, wrote to his comtades that if
fifty Garibuldis were in priron, let Rome be free, There
was the entree rising up ahcve the man. The Church
of God verily needed enthusistem nowadays; many a
drunkard could he reclaimed if they had a little more
enthusiasm in their churches and chapels. Another
thing they needed in their work was perseverance.
Many a man in London could be reached if inces•
stoutly followed up. He had little faith in moving men
in masses; he advocates' dealing with men individually
and singly, as the most effective means of reclamation.
An evangelistic meeting was held in the evening, when
there was again a large attendance.

A TRAGEDY IN LEYMERG.

The Vienna Correspondent of the Standard wrltes

A shocking case of suicide after an attempted
murder is reported from Lemberg. The serjeant-msjor
of a regiment of Uhlans quartered in that city had for
some time past conceived the most deadly hatred of
his Captain, and had sworn to take his life. Armed
with a revolver, Serjnant Moraweiz appeared at the
house of Captain Eypert, and warning the private ser-
vant of the latter against attempting to Interfere
at the peril of his own life, forced his way
into the Captain's sitting-room. At the moment
Captain Eypert was with a fellow offiesr, Cap-
tain Wittmenn, in another apartment. In the
source of a minute or two, the master of the house and
his gue4 made their appearance, and Captain Eypert,
though implored by his man servant not to enter the
room, treated the matter as a joke and passed in at the
door. Morawetz immediately fired, wounding the
Captain, and before he could be stopped, blew out his
own brains with a second shot. But for the fact that
the man servant in trying to hold Captain Eypert back
had caused him to swerve in passing through the door,
the ball would have pierced him in the breast; as it
was it only grazed his side.
