SAD STORY OF THE SEA.

A terrible tale of the sea has been told by the men
of the trawlers 487 and 582, from Treport, on the
French coast. The other day making head against
the gale fifteen miles out at sea, they noticed a vessel
on her beam ends. They were able to count sixteen
of its crew who were bolding on to what remained of
the rigging. They also saw a woman, who appeared to
be the captain's wife, lashed to the masthead. For
fcur hours the two fishing smacks beat about in the
hope of saving the crew. In this attempt one of the
men at the helm was knocked away by the waves
dashing overboard, but resumed his post. The crew
of the sinking ship, in despair of saving their lives any
other way, lowered a launch, which three men
manned, but they were immediately lost. The ship
finally disappeared. It was an English vessel, and
they fancied they could make out the words " Scotch-
man " and " Comfel " on its stern.

THE PEACE OF EUROPE;

The customary exchange of telegrams between the
Czar and the Emperor of Austria, which took place
on New Year's-eve, was, (says a Vienna corres-
pondent) I understand marked by more than the usual
cordiality. The Czar's congratulation came first, and
the terms in which it was couched made a very favour-
able impression upon the Emperor. I had a conversa-
tion with an exceedingly well-informed diplomatist to-
day on the general situation. He said : in the first
place the rumour of a separate German-Russian
alliance is absolutely untrue, and is to be traced to a
letter written by the Emperor William to the Czar.
You will remember that the fact of this exchange
of letters was vehemently denied by the semi-
official Press, sad the Russian Embassy in
Berlin used all its connections with the press in order
to discredit the report, but nevertheless the Em-
peror's letter and the Czar's letter exist, and formed
the turning point of the overstrained situation. At
that time all looked gloomy. In Berlin those in
authority firmly believed that war was unavoidable.
It is a mistake to think that the age of the Emperor
has such great influence on Prince Bismarck's en.
deavours to maintain peace as is generally repre-
sented. There was a time not long ago when Prince
Bismarck and the German military authorities were
resolved to bring about war with France, which they
considered necessary, without delay. Prince Bismarck
explained this necessity in detail to the Emperor,
who gave his consent, only adding, "As a matter o!
course, I will place myself at the head of my army,.
and no argument of the Chancellor's could make LT;
Majesty deviate from what he considered his
duty. Just censider what a situation that
would bring about! The commanders in the
field would be hampered at every step by the
necessary consideration for the 90 years of the
Empei or, and should a catastrophe occur, which we
all pray may be deferred for many years, what would
be the moral influence on troops engaged, perhaps, in
the decisive battle? Besides, other considerations
inlets, which impose upon Prince Bismarck the
necessity of deferring tbe deadly issue, if that can by
any possibility be done. For instance, the Emperor
absolutely declines to separate himself from his old
Generals who served in former wars, whilst the serious
task to be undertaken would require younger and
stronger Commanders. All this shows that the
Emperor's age does not stand in the way of war either
with France or Russia, in the sense generally under-
stooe, and if France counts on his personal aversion
to w r, she may have a terrible awakening. At the
eatna time, the Emperorla age handicaps Prince
Bismarck's plans, and thus serves to maintain peace
which would otherwise be greatly endangered.

DISTURBANCES ON THE NIGER.

Private advices received in Liverpool from the
West Coast of Africa tend to show the efforts of the
Royal Niger Company to put into force the terms of
the charter which they received from the Into
Government of Great Britain has at last met with
very serious resistance on the part of the natives,
who have looted two of the company's factories, and
in the conflict a number of persons, whites as well as
blacks, were killed. The company received their
charter about the middle of July, and their agents
commenced to take advantage of its terms about
the beginning of November, since which time
there has been considerable friction between them
and the natives, who decline to recognise the
sovereign rights of persons, who they view
only as monopolist traders. According to the accounts
just to hand, the ill-feeling culminated in serious dis-
turbances early in December, when the natives looted
the Royal Niger Company's factories at Sabagriga and,
Warn. Three or four white men are said to have been
killed on the occasion besides a number of blacks, so
that if the news be true it looks as if the company's
charter were likely to cause a little war. It mast be
stated that the agents who forward the news to Liver-
pool firms were not at the scene of the disturbances,
but were a few miles away, so that their information
is second-hand. Whatever be the precise nature of
the events up the Niger, it is evident that they were
serious, because a number of Marines from her
Majesty's ship Royalist had proceeded up the river
to the scene of the disturbcnce when the letters were
despatched. Several gunboats were also in the Niger.
Captain Mackintosh, the company's representative,
had gone invalided to Madeira, while Mr. Croft, a
member of the company's council, lately left England
for Madeira, possibly to consult with the captain on
the state of affairs on the Niger. More precise in-
formation will be awaited with considerable interest,
though it may be suspected from the cautious, reticent
tone of some African merchants in Liverpool that
they know more than they are willing to tell.

A CHURCH DESTROYED.

The Church of St. John the Evangelist, at Ranmoor
the principal suburb of Sheffield, was destroyed by fire
on Sunday with all its valuable contents. These in.
eluded an organ, pulpit, lectern, font, and other eccle •
siastical furniture of more than ordinary costliness.
The place was entirely gutted, only the belfray tower
remaining. The caretaker locked up the building at
five o'clock in the morning, when all appeared
right, but after returning at nine o'clock and
attending to the furnaces in the lower basement he
found on going upstairs into the vestry a smell of
burning wood, and on passing into the church he ob-
served smoke issuing from the top of the organ
cl.amber. Shortly afterwards flames appeared. Re
instantly gave the alarm, and the Sheffield Fire Bri-
gade were summoned. By the time they arrived the
fire had got possession of the timber roof, through
which tiles and melted tar were dropping. All hope
of saving the church had to be abandoned, and the
firemen directed their energies to the belfry tower,
the fall of which might involve damage to neighbour-
ing houses. The timber in the tower had ignited, but
as there was an abundant supply of water the flames
were extinguished and the tower and belfry saved.
Everything in the interior of the church was
destroyed, including even the silver service placed on
the altar ready for morning communion, which was
very costly, and had been presented by a wealthy
resident. The fire is believed to have been caused by
over-heating of the furnace flue as it passes through
the north-east .corner of the organ chamber,
where the flames were first observed, into the
chimney. Here a beam of wood was within three or
four inches of the flue. The church was erected at a
cost of £15,000 by the late Mr. John Newton Mappin.
It was the best appointed of all the Sheffield churches.
Its congregation consists of the chief merchants and
manufacturers of the town who have residences at
.Ranmoor. Since its erection a number of handsome
coloured windows have been inserted by various
donors, and the pulpit, which was also presented by
a parishioner, was a very valuable one, standing upon
four solid bronze pillars and having bronze panelled
sides. During last year upwards of £lOOO was ex-
pended on redecorating and reroofing the church.
Eye witnesses declare that in 40 minutes from the
outbreak the church was practically destroyed.
was insured for £9500.

A FASMON writer says that dresses are to be full

REFUSING TO QUIT AND CLEATING A DISTURBANCE
—At the Police Court on Wednesday, before Messrs
C. Holcroft, W. Basex.o, and J. A. Smith, Satanic
and William Pitchford, anchor-smiths, Cradley
Heath, were charged with being drunk, and refus-
ing to quit the Queen's Head Cradlky Heath,
on the 28th ult.—lt was stst, d that on the night
in question the defendants went into the house and
created a disturbance by thr,:wing ale in the faces
of several clEtomers, and upon the landicrd (Mr.
Hickton) requesting them to leave they assaulted
him.—The Bench considered it a Lad CBSC, and fined
each of the defendants 20s and cos s, or in default
one month's imprisonment. -
TILE ALLEGED THEFT OF BRASSESO—At the Same
Court, John Berry, puddler, Hill Top, near Wednes-
bury, was charged with stealing a quantity of engine
brasses from the Pol,vke LILO Colliery.—P.lice-
sergeant White said that inguries respecting the
robbery were not yet complete, and he applied for
the prisoner to be remanded for a week —Prisoner
said he was entirely innocent of the charge, and he
objected to the remand.—The Bench held that the
evidence they had heard justified them in remanding
him, which they did for a week.
ALLEGED THEFT OF A PONY.—At the same Court,
a respectably-dressed young man named Benjamin
Bird (22), fruiterer, High Street, Black Heath,
was charged on a warrant with stealing a pony, the
property of John Field, also of Plack Heath, on
May Sti., 1884.—Whilst a pony belonging to prose-
cutor was grazing in a field, the prisoner, it was
alleged, took it, and upon being met by a police-
man he ran away, and was not seen in the district
again till Tuesday, when he was arrested by PC.
Styles.—The accused was remanded or a week.

THE CLOSURE.

The House then resumed the consideration of the
proposed rule with regard to the closure of debate,
and after a lengthy discussion negatived by 241. to 186,
an amendment, proposed by Mr. Parnell, and sup-
ported by Mr. Gladstone, providing that the closure
should not be applied until after opportunity had
been afforded for debate upon the question before the
Howe. A further proposal by Mr. Parnell that the
closure should only be applied where no amendment
to the main question had been moved was negatived
by 302 to 116.
Mr. W. H. Smith moved an amendment providing
that a motion for the apeliostion of the closure should
be put and decided withnat amendment or debate
unless it should appear to the Chair that such motion
was an abuse of the rules of. the House or an infringe-
ment of the rights of the minority.
Mr. Parnell complained that the amendment ha]
been suddenly sprung upon the House, and moved the
adjournment of the debate which he proposed should
hot be resumed until Friday.
After considerable discussion the debate was ad-
journed until Wednesday, and the House rose at a
quarter to two o'clock.

DEATH OF CARDINAL JACOBINI:

After a long struggle, consequent upon an un-
usually strong - constitution, Cardinal Jacobini died
on Monday in Rome about noon. Ludovico JacoLini,
although only 56 years of age, had had, says a corre-
spondent in Rome, an unusually brilliant career. he
was charged by Pius XI. with several missions in
Spain and elsewhere, and was the consultor of the
Oriental section of the Propaganda. The late
Pontifical Secretary of State first came into promi-
nence as the Under Secretary of the Vatican Council,
In 1874 he was the Nuncio in Vienna, where he is
most affectionately remembered, and where he cer-
tainly showed himself to be an excellent diplomat of
the conciliatory school now in the ascendant at the
Vatican. Created a Cardinal in 1879, he sticceeded
Cardinal Nina, who is since dead, as the Pope's first
Minister. Not over active, Cardinal Jacobini con-
tented himself with so shaping his policy to be in
accordance with that of his august master. .
The English speaking Roman Catholics will greatly
miss the late genial cardinal, who, though belonging
to the school of Roman Curialists, always showed
great favour to the missionary developments of
Catholicism in Great Britain, the British colonies,
and the United States.

JUBILEE THANKSGIVING SERVICES.

THE MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.

The Freeman's Journal publishes a letter professing
to come from the girl Ethel Roe, a ward in chancery,
who recently disappeared in a mysterious manner
from thA house of her grandmother in Dublin. The
letter, which is dated Metz, Feb. 22, is as follows
"Sir,— I was very much aroused on reading tto
various accounts of my departure from 27, Pem-
broke-road. The tale is an extremely simple one. I
left of my own free will, as a child naturally and very
rightly wishes to be with her =then I therefore
profited by the first opportunity afforded me to escape,
and was accompanied by a faithful friend to my
present destination. I need not add how delighted
'1 am to be in my home with my mother, sisters,
and brothers, whom for the past four and a half
years I earnestly longed to join. I should
also express it hope that all advocates of liberty
of conscience will approve of the step I have now
taken, as it will afford me an opportunity of prac-
tising the Roman Catholic religion, in which I always
believed, and which of late years I have been always
taught to execrate.—Truly yours, ETHEL ROE." This .
letter has been shown to the girl's uncle, who says he
believes that it is in her handwriting ; but he is
cn-
vinced that she wrote it under compulsion of the
"faithful friend.' Ile says that the girl's mother
gave her up to her grandmother, and had never asked
to have her sent back again. She and her brothers
and sisters were baptised Protestants. The unc'e says
he is convinced that the girl was decoyed from the
house by false representations. Tile Freeman's Journal
says that the girl was assisted in her flight by a work-
ing man, to whom she confided her wish to escape.
She walked out of the house early in the morning,
clothed only in her nightdress, flannel petticoat, and
shoes and stockings. A warm overcoat., a soft bat,
and a pair of trousers were quickly supplied. for
long fair hair was cut off, and Ethel was transformed
into a boy. She was then confided to a faithful
woman-servaet, with whom she went to Belfast,
' crossed to Greenock, thence to Leith, whence she sailed
for France. •

CHURCH PATRONAGE BILL.

The Archbishop of Canterbury moved the second
reading of the Church Patronage Bill, which, he said,
was based on two principles—viz., that advowsons were
a sacred trust, and that the parishioners had a right to
lay before the bishop evidence with regard to the
fitness of any person who might be nominated by a
patron to a living. The object of the measure was to
provide safeguards against advowsons being sold for
pecuniary profit, or to those who were not fit and
proper persons.—Lord Grimthorpe described the bill
as the most revolutionary ecclesiastical measure that
had been introduced since the Long Parliament, Inas-
much as it would destroy the system of private
patronage under which many excellent men had been
brought into the Church who otherwE% would have
been kept out of it.—On the motion of the Bishop of
London, the debate was adjourned.

LAID UP AT HOME.

Ordinarily, the old adage as to that which is death
to one may be life to another would appear to be
welt grounded; but in the ease of St. Jacobs Oil the
exception to the rule is most striking. It would
seem to be just the thing in every instance. James
Young, of Sandhouse Maiden, Ayrshire, Scotland,
states that "after trying many so-called sures, I
used St. Jacobs Oil, with the result of obtaining
instant relief." For two years severe rheumatism
pains in the knees troubled him sorely, and often
laid him up at home unable to work. The expend-
iture of two and sixpence for a bottle of the Oil
saved very much more to him the first week he was
a well man. If nearest chemist hasn't it, write

THE FOREIGN IRON: TRADE.

Business is still pretty brisk in the BAglan iron
market. Blast-furnaces are booked six months
ahead. Finished iron works producing bars, girders,
and angles are well employed Engineers generally
and bridge builders are slack, but locomotive
builders and manufacturers of railway rolling stock
are busy. Steelworks have also plenty of work
before them. Prices aro ve-y steady.—The French
iron market is gradually improving. Orders in the
Haute-11am° are coming in regularly, and present
prices (130 to 235 fr.) are steady. Quotations are
also firm in the Nord, although the demand is not
particularly strong. Not with,tanding that the re-
vival of building opera,tions is imparting a stimulus
to t e iran trade, Paris m-rchants are still selling
at priceS which can scarcely leave them a profi*. In
the Meurthe-ot-M05.3110. forge pig is dlsposeel of at

unchanged. Alt'nimv the demand for pig-iron is
quiet both in Westplia:ia and Upper Silesia, prices
continue steady in both districts. Flushed iron re-
mains firm. Steel rails have been sold at 122
marks a ton, and steel w.trks are satisfat:torily em-
ployed. The German produntioa of pig-iron in the
month of January was 293.897 tons, comparnd wih
296 869 tons in the vorresponding month of 1886,
which shows a d• crease for 1857 of about 3000 tons

There is not so much d m aid for Scotch pig-iron is

preventing the expansion of vices at New York.
the February sates of English Bessemer iron for
New York are stated to ne 35,000 tons at 211 dots
a ton ; ef spiegoleisen, 15,000 tans, .t 27 doll. ;

DRIVEN TO DEATH.

An inquest was held on Monday at St. John's High
School, Oxford, on the body of Mr. T. H. W. Abra-
ham, 18, son of the Rev. Thomas Abraham, Vicar of
-Torksey, Lincolnshire, the young man having com-
mitted suicide by shooting himself in the head with a
reNolver in the study of the school on Saturday even-
ing. From the evidence of the father it appeared that
when in Victoria, Australia, the lad was severely in-
jured on the head by a heavy oak reading desk falling
upon him, and that he had but recently recovered
from an attack of pneumonia. The fat her added that
the deceased was at St. John's College, Hurstpierpoint,
for five years, and that about 18 months ago, through
nervous depression, he was unable to apply himself to
his study of Greek, and that a master punished him
for what he considered was obstinacy by keeping him
three wfeks in solitary confinement, which bad a
severe effect upon him. Witness was sure that the
solitary confinement had injured the lad so that he
had not recovered from it. On Saturday he wrote
letters to his father, the master of his school, and
some fellow•pupils, saying that he felt he never eould
do any good at his studies, that he would not waste
any more of his parents' means, and that he was going
away that day into another world. It was without the
sanction or knowledge of the master that firearms
were in the school. The jury returned a verdict of
Suicide in a &of temporary insanity, and condemned
the cruel treatment at Hurstpierpoint, which they con-
sidered a disgrace to the present age.

moved as an amendment that the resolution be not
rescinded He said toe only rbject of the motion
was to raise the salaries referred to, and, although
he was quite willi,ig to give every praise to the
master and matron as being most efficient officers,
he contended that the present time, when trade and
agrieul ure were much depressed, and the rate-
payers could hardy bear the heavy burdens and
existing taxation, was not a time when they could
atford to give already well.paid officials additional

A MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR.

A. mysterious death, the result, it is thought, of
foul play, is being investigated by the Birmingham
police. On Saturday night a man was taken to the
General Hospital in an unconscious state, suffering
from severe injuries to the back of the head. He
died in the hospital early on Monday morning, and
two persons, Theresa Rooney, of Begot street, and
Joseph Lester, of Lancaster-street, were arrested on
sugpicion of causing his death. Shortly after eleven
o'clock on Saturday night the deceased was seen to be
taken out of Rooney's house in an unconscious state.
He had been staying there for several hours, and it is
believed that he was there struck with some blunt
instrument on the back of the head. The appear-
auce of the deceased was that of a military
man, and the coat he was wearing bore the name of
Colonel Fendall. In one of his pockets was found a
bill made out in the same name, and his linen was
marked '! G. N. F." George Newton Fendall, accord-
ing to the "Army List," was senior colonel now com-
