INSECTS AS PROPHETS.

A gentleman in Sydney, New South Wales, states
the following facts: There have been heavy floods in
parts of the colony. Some months ao the Blacks
said that the floods would ovcur, and consequently
left their camping-grounds on the flats, and got into
higher country. Their prophecy has come true. They,
being close observers_of nature, noticed that the ants
and other insects which live on and in the ground
commenced to build their nests, &c., in trees; and
when the ants do this a flood is sure to happen sooner
or latter. Query: How did the insects know that a
flood was coming? For it was months before the
rain set in that the Blacks prophesied. Instinct must
look very far ahead, and be able to read signs that
are invisib!e to us.

THH UNITED STATES NAVY.

The United States Navy, which at present consists
of only 30 vessels, nearly all of which are of wood
and are admittedly of little value, is being reinforced
by 18 new ships, all of either iron or steel, and all to
be afloat within two years. Seven of these vessels are
ironclads, three cruisers with ironclad decks, four fast
cruisers built of steel, two gunboats, one s, torpedo
vessel, and one a cruiser armed with dynamite guns.
Five of the ironclads, the Miantonomob, the Puritan,
the Terror, the Amphitrite, and the Manadusek, are
monitors with double turrets, which will te employed
for coast defence only. The two others, not yet laid
down, will be of 6000 tons burden, with double hulls
and a speed of 16 knots an hour. They will be fitted
with torpedo apparatus and will carry heavy guns.
Of the four cruisers, the Dolphin, with a displace-
ment of 1500 tons, is completed and is being armed;
the Atlanta (3000 tons) is now on a trial trip, and
the two others, the Boston (3000 tons) and the
Chicago (4500 tons) are well advanced towards com-
pletion. The cruiser armed with dynamite guns is a
new invention to which the naval department has
arranged to give a trial, and should it come up to
the estimate of its inventor it is expected to be the
most powerful engine of maritime warfare in exist-
ence.

ATTEMPT TO UPSET A TRAIN.

At the Manchester Assizas on Saturday, before Mr.
Justice Cave, John Henry Marsh, 16, was indicted
for having attempted to upset a passenger train on
the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway near Bolton.
The evidence showed that on the 14th of September
a goods guard taw upon the line used by passenger
trains, between Manchester and Bolton,. three pieces
of wood (known as keys) placed on the metals. He
communicated to the authorities at the nearest
station what he had seen, and, upon examination of
the line at the place specified, the keys were still on
the line. Inquiries were made, and it was ascertained
that a short time before the obstruction was discovered
the prisoner had been seen on the line within a few
yards of the place. No notice, however, was taken of
him, as it was thought he was a company's servant.
Had a train encountered the obstruction the train
would probably have been thrown cif the line. When
taken into custody the prisoner denied having been on
the line that day. Prisoner was found guilty, and his
lordship, in passing sentence, pointed out that he
had two or three times previously been convicted
of theft. He was sentenced to penal servitude for
five years,

not keep her eyes off them, or cease speculating
whether they were there to see her and plot her ruin.
It must be so; and she could hardly repress a shriek
when she heard Allan Temple's voice and saw him
walk upon the stage. She had much ado to keep her-
self from fainting, for she was so sure they were
watching her every look and gesture. She saw them
look from her to him, and from him to her, and she
was conscious that mid all the roar of applause
which followed his entrance, Allan Temple was bowing
mechanically to the audience, and staring straight at
her with a face in which amazed wonder was only too
apparent.
That he recognised her fully was apparent to them
all, or why should he be so agitated at the sight of
her?

EXTRAORDINAB:Y CONDUCT Ok

SOLDIERS.
A large number of men belonging to the Royal
North Lancashire Regiment were at Tenby on Satur-
day evening in a state of intoxication, and were
placed for security in the police-station. Shortly
before midnight seven of them escaped from the cells
into the outer rooms during the temporary absence of
the police on duty. They at once barricaded the outer
door, and began to smash the fittings, afterwards
setting fire to the building. The reel and hose were
brought out and put in play upon the building, and
the rioters were eventualfy driven back into the cells.
The rioters have been since removed under a strong
military escort to Penally Barracks, where they w;.11
remain until they can be dealt with by the civil
powers. All the police records were destroyed by the
fire.

THE FOREIGN IRON TRADE.

Orders continue to be rather scarce in the Belgian
iron market, although some of the works have
secured work three months ahead. The firmness in
the English market has caused Belgian pig-iron to
rise 1 fr. a ton.—The French market remains station-
ary. There is a prospect of a rise in pig-iron in
view of the concer!ed action of the makers of the
north-eastern district. Manufactured iron is firm
thoroughout France, with the exeeption of Paris.
There is a healthy tone in the steel market. The
first order for iron forithe new exhibition buildings,
to the value of 1,900,000 fr., is in the maaket.—The
German iron market has undergone na change
during the past week. Pig-iron is somewhat more
active in Westphalia, but depressed in Silesia, where
it has receded in price. Manufactured iron con-
tinues active on the Rhine. There is no alteration
in p:ice of the finished article. The American iron
market maintains its rising tendency. Scotch pig
iron is very firm at New York, and Eglinton is
qucted at 19a, dols. and Coltness 22. dols. whilst
imp rters are asking 24- dols. for Coltnesslfor future
deli :ay. American pig 4: on gen 'rally is very firm.

THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SHOW

AT ii ORWICH.

The final meeting of the local committee in connec-
tion with the Royal Agricultural Show at Norwich
last July was held in Norwich on Saturday wider the
presidency of the Mayor (Mr. J. Gurney). The
balance-sheet presented to the members showed that
the receipts amounted to £6526 25., and that a balance
of ..f520 ss. Bd. remained at the hank. The Fi, Race
Committee recommended that the balance be invested
it, the Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institu.ion tn
the name of the Norfolk Agricultural Association, and
that the votes which will thereby be secured he vested
in the hands of the council of that society. This re-
commendation, the committee added, had met with
the hearty approval of his Royal Highness the Prince
of Wales. The adoption of the report was moved by
Sir Edward Birkbeck, M P., and was carried. On the
motion of the Mayor, seconded by Mr. Harvey Mason
(president of the Norfolk Agricultural Association), a

FIRE AT THE GENERAL POST OFFICE.

At about six o'clock on Tuesday night some alarm
was caused among the clerks at the London General
Post Office in the telegraph department in Bath-street.
A number of the employes were descending from an
upper floor when they were met by a volume of smoke
which drove them back. An alarm was immediately
raised, and a number of the Post Office firemen were
soon on the spot, but for some little time they could
not discover where the smoke issued from. In the
meantime strict orders were given to those who had
become aware of the outbreak to keep perfectly quiet,
the object of this being to prevent a panic among the
young women engaged on the top floor of the build-
ing. In a few moments it was discovered that the
fire was in the cloak-room, where a wooden partition
was found to be alight. Hydrants were got into use,
and in about ten or twelve minutes the fire was ex-
tinguished. The cause of the outbreak was found to
be the over-heating of a pipe running between the
cloak-room and the kitchen. The Metropolitan Fire
Brigade was not called into requisition.

A BAPTIST MINISTER COMMITTED.
At Upton-on-Severn (Worcestershire) Petty Sessions,
on Tuesday, the Rot. Wallis Davies, Baptist minister,
of Upton, was charged with making a false declara-
tion before the Revising Barrister (Mr. Ram), at the
Registration Court 'add last month, in connection
with his claim to be en the register as a lodger. Mr.
W. Tree (Worcester conducted the prosecution on
behalf of the Treasury, and Mr. Miller Corbett (Kid-
derminster) was for the defendant. The facts, as de-
tailed by the witnemes examined, five in number, were
briefly as follows: On the occasion of the Revising
Barrister for South Worcestershire (in which division
Upton-on-Severn is included) hold!ng his court at
Upton, on Oct. 8, the claim of the Rev. W. Davies to
the franchise as a 'odger was supported and prima
facie sustained by a declaration made in the form of
the statute, which Ed forth that he had been occupy-
ing lodgings at the house of a Mr. Edwards for 12
months before July 15 last. The declaration was
signed by the defeniant and subscribed by a Mr. John
Woodward, who vonched for the truth of the state-
ment. The facts, however, proved to be that the de-
fendant did not cone to reside at Edwards's house
until the month of October, and consequently was not
entitled to be on the register. Moreover, the attest-
ing witness (who represented the declaration as
having been signed is his presence on Aug. 12) was
proved to have been living on that day at Upton-on-
Severn, while the reterend defendant was in South
Wales. The defendant was committed for trial at
the assizes, bail being accepted, the defendant's own
sureties being consithred sufficient.

THE NEW POLICE DRILL.

The new military drill which Sir Charles Warren
ordered should supersede the old instruction, is far
from popular among the inspectors and men of the
Metropolitan Police. On every week day for the last
month or more a squad of thirty constables in uniform
have been withdrawn from duty in the streets to Bird-
cage-walk to go through "infantry evolutions and
field exercise." Part I. and Part IL (company drill)
is to be a future study. The squad is exercised for
the instruction of an inspector from each division,
who is required to make himself efficient. This
requires about three weeks' tuition, and the
inspector being passed by Colonel Monsell,
"the chief constable," goes back to his dis-
trict qualified to put the rank and file through
their facings. Such a radical change is hardly to be
mastered by old policemen of long service, for the
word of command and the movements are entirely
different from the old drill. Besides this, the absur-
dity of middle-aged men inclining to corpulency going
through 'extension motions" on the drill ground may
be well imagined. They are required to " bend over
until the hands touch the feet, keeping the arms and
knees straight, and after a slight pause to raise the
body gradually, bring the arms to the sides, and re-
sume the position of attention." This is all very well
for youthful recruits in the army, but policemen with
15 or 20 years' service do not like it, and those who
are phypically incapable of carrying out the order cut
the ridiculous figure in the sight of the public on the
drill ground of touching the lower part of their legs,
the instructor telling them that "they must go down
as far as they can."

ENGLANE AND TURKEY.
RECEPTION OP SIR WILLIAM WHITE.

The audience at which the Sultan received Sir
William White, the new English Ambassador, took
place at two o'clock on Tuesday afternoon. On the
arrival of the new British Ambassador at Yildiz he
was received by the Minister for Foreign Affairs and
Munir Pacha, Grand Master of the Ceremonies, who
at once introduced him to the Sultan, his Majesty
being surrounded by all his principal civil and military
functionaries.
Sir William White addressed the Sultan in the
following terms:
"Her Majesty, desirous of maintaining good rela-
tiors with your Impelial Majesty, has appointed me
Ambassador Extraordinary ad interim at your Court,
and I have the honour to place in the hands of your
Imperial Majesty my credentials. The favourable
reception I formerly had the honour to experience at
the hands of your Majesty when I was fortunate
enough to be accredited to your Court leads me to
hope that my efforts will have the happy result of
still further increasing the traditional friendship and
good understanding which have ever existed between
the two Empires. Her Majesty, my august Sovereign,
has charged me to assure your Imperial Majesty of
her wishes for the happiness and prolongation of the
life of your Imperial Majesty, for the prosperous
duration of your reign, and for the welfare of your
Empire."
The Sultan replied that he thoroughly appreciated
the good intentions and the sentiments of friendship
and goodwill expressed in reference to him by the
Queen. He hastened to reply with the same senti-
ments in respect to the Queen, his old friend and ally.
The Sultan fully expressed the satisfaction which he
felt in again seeing Sir William White at Constanti-
nople, accredited to him in his capacity of Ambassa-
dor for the Queen, and the high qualities of whom he
had already had occasion to appreciate. His
Majesty concluded by saying that neither he nor his
Government would spare any effort in order to facili-
tate the accomplishment of the task undertaken by
Sir William, whose object was to unite closer the tra-
ditional bonds which united the two Empires.
The formal audience was followed by a private in-
terview, which lasted more than half-an-hour, and
was characterised by great cordiality. Munir Pasha
and Sir Alfred Sandison were present.

THE STRANDING OF ATLANTIC
LINERS.

The steamship Persian Monarch, Captain Paton,
from New York to London, with passengers and
general cargo, including 300 head of cattle, called off
Portland for a pilot, who was awaiting her at the
entrance of the breakwater. Soon after he had
boarded the steamer she was about to proceed to sea
when she took the ground and ran on the breakvrater.
This happened about nine on Friday night, during a
slight fog, accompanied by drizzling rain. On receipt
ot the news the tugs Queen and Commodore proceeded
to the scene of the disaster, but being after high water
any attempt to get the vessel off was at that time
abandoned. On Saturday morning at high tide an
effort was made to tow the vessel off, but without
success. Every exertion is being made to discharge
the cargo, of which about 300 tons have been landed.
and in the evening a second trial was made, but
proved futile. The passengers left Weymouth for .
London on Saturday morning. The Persian Monarch
is an iron screw steamer of 3923 gross tons, built at
Dumbarton in 1880, and is owned by the Royal Ex-
change Shipping Company.
Respecting the Cunard Royal Mail steamer Pavonia,
the stranding of trifler-L.6- 4- I— eAtt "(vanes/Air
Saturday, the following telegram has been received
through Renter's Agency: " Boston, Oct, 30 Evening).
The Pavonia has been beached below Boston in order
to prevent her sinking. It was discovered yesterday
evening that she was making water in other than the
forward compartments, and bhat the fires were being
gradually extinguished. It appears that she has two
bad holes in her bottom, one on her port bow and the
other forward of amidships. The two compartments
at these points are filled with water. The mails and
baggage have been landed. Iter captain gives the
following account of her going ashore in the first in-
stance. The ship was proceeding at a fair speed when
Gurnet Point was sighted dead ahead. The engines
were quickly reversed, and the Pavonia's way was
stopped, but in swinging off she struck bottom. Even
now that she is beached but little can be done to aid
her until the storms abates."

The following is also from Renter: "Quebec, Oct.
30.—The Beaver Line steamer Lake Huron, which
grounded yesterday off Madame Island, and was sub-
sequently run ashore seven miles below Quebec, struck
on a rock at low tide. Three compartments imme-
diately filled with water, and the cargo stored in them
was badly damaged. The vessel is lying on a good
bottom. The cargo is being taken out, and an endea-
vour will be made to bring the vessel to Louise Basin,
where she will be surveyed."

Curran, at Tralee Quarter Sessions on Saturday,said
he would try an experiment. The twined Lad been
ringleaders in heading a lawless mob; he would now
give them a chance of being ringleaders in keeping the
peace. They would be released on bail for three
months, and if the district remained free from
agrarian crime they would escape punishment.

ST. JOHN AMBULANCE ASSOCIATION.

The annual report of this Association for the past
twelve months has just been issued. It states that
during that period 11,703 "first aid" certificates and
1635 " nursing " certificates have been awarded, while

THE MARQUIS AND HIS GUN
LICENCE:

On Saturday, at tle Everleigh Petty Sessions, Wilt-
shire, George William Thomas Brudenell Bruce,
Marquis of Ailesbary (lately known as Viscount
Savernake), was summoned by Joseph Scott, an excise
officer, for using a gun without a licence. The evidence
shows that on the 18t ult, the prosecutor saw his lord-
ship shooting with a party of four gentlemen at Lud-
gershall,and asked him for his licence. His lordship
replied that he had none, and gave his address. Mr.
Henry Woolcott, agent for the marquis, stated, for
the defence, that it was his fault the licence had not
been obtained. Owing to pressure of business he
forgot it. The .Bench inflicted a fine of is. without
costs.

Intelligence received here from Cabul announces
that tb. Ghilzai tribe near Ghuzni has risen against

CHEAP FOOD FOR THE PEOPLE.

On Saturday evening a number of working-men
delegates interested in the question of food reform
sat down, at the invitation of Mr. D. Tallerman, of
the Colonial Produce Market, to a dinner served in
the Royal Commission Dining Rooms of the Colonial
and Indian Exhibition. The menu consisted wholly
of dishes illustrative of the food resources of the
Empire, and the general company included represen-
tati-es ot those Colonies whose exports had been laid
und.er contribution. A soup made of the heads, tails,
awl bones of fish appeared to be appreciated, and
there was a large choice of preserved fish from British
Columbia, Prince Edward's Island, New Brunswick,
and Nova Scotia, and some fresh white fish from Lake
Huron, which, although caught sixteen months ago, were
much relished. Australian rabbits were served up
stewed,and shoulders of mutton stuffed with seasoning.
came to table under the name of " mutton ducks,"
At the close of the repast Mr. Tallerman, in respond-
ing to the toast of his health, proposed by Major de
Winton, said that since the opening of the Exhibition
in the Royal Commission Dining rooms there had
been upwards of 539,000 meals provided at 6d., is.,
and 2e, 6d., with teas at 4d., and he was desirous
that the movement thus ably initiated should be con-
tinued. It was understood that the Exhibition
would be re-opened as the Imperial Institute next
year, and hesuggested that the dining-rooms should
be made useful during the interval in connection
with an organisation which would incorporate with
the National School of Cookery the dining halls of
large firms. In this way instruction might be given
in the preparation of colonial food economically.
It was formally resolved that a committee of the
assembled delegates wait upon Sir P. Cuncliffe-Owen
to request that the dining-room be placed at their dis-
posal to carry out the experiment. Several of the
workmen present spoke of the need of establishments
where cheap food could be procured.

FARMER JERKINS'S FIRST BABY:

A local farmer, says a Buckingham correspondent,
has just presented his firstborn for christening at his
pariah church, with 26 Christian names se'ected from
Scripture, representing every letter of the alphabet
and only with the greatest difficulty could the clergy-
man dissuade the farmer from laying such an incubus
upon it, and get him to content himself with the first
and last of the names proposed. The full title of the
unfortunate infant was to have been—Abel Benjamin
Caleb Daniel Ezra Felix Gabriel Haggai Isaac Jacob
Kish Levi Manoah Nehemiah Obadiah Peter Quartus
Rechab Samuel ToFiah TJzziel Variah Word Xystus
