THE WARSAW CONFERENCES.—It is very gene-
rally asserted and believed that the failure of the Warsaw
Conferences mainly arose from the prominence given by the
Czar in the Imperial and Royal deliberations to a revision
of the Treaty of Paris—that being the main object at pre-
sent of the policy of Russia. To the revision of the treaty,
deemed necessary by Russia in satisfaction of its amour
propre, the other potentates were unable to assent.—Daily
News.

THE FRENCH OPERA-HOUSE.—In the new French
Opera-House about to be erected, says the Constitutionnel,
the electric telegraph will, it is said, play a very prominent
part. An instantaneous line of communication is to be
established between the Cabinet of the Minister of State
and that of the director of the theatre ; a wire will also
ran from the box-ofileg to the principal hotels, so that
strangers will be able to engage places immediately on their
arrival in Paris, and by the aid of the same electric power
the prompter will be enabled to give notice to the actors
and actresses in their rooms when the curtain is about to
MONSTER SHARK IN SHETLAND —The following
communication from Whalsey will be read with interest :
" A very largo shark was caught hero by one of the fishing
boats on Friday last. None of the fishermen here ever saw
the like of it. Its length was 2711 feet ; thickness, 16 feet ;
from its nose to the last gill, 7 feet; its mouth when open,
0 inches across ; the foremost fins, sft. 3in. ; and the tail,
from point to point, 7 feet. The liver yielded 1651 gallons
of oil, and was sold for £l6 10s. The whole body could not
have been less than six tons. It was caught by a six-oared
boat, and the men had groat difficulty in getting it ashore.
Instead of landing at 6 o'clock in the morning, it was seven
at night before they got to the shore, and had they not been
assisted by two other boats' crews, they would not have
managed it in two days. When caught it seemed to have
taken a mouthful of herrings, and then rolled itself in the
net. When the men began to haul in the nets, which were
new, they found them twisted with the ropes five times
round. It died in a very short time, or the men would have
run a very hard chance for their lives."—Orkney Herald.
THE FATAL BOILER EXPLOSION AT MILES
PLATTING—ANOTHER DEATlL—Charles Matthews, who
sustained a severe compound fracture of the thigh by the
bursting of the boiler on Friday at the Lancashire and
Yorkshire Railway Company's waggon works, near Miles
Platting station, died at the Manchester Infirmary on Satur-
day morning. Henry Sutton, the third sufferer who was
taken to the infirmary, was on Sunday evening in a some-
what critical position. The fourth man who was injured
and taken to his own house is John Soldon, a fitter, em•
ployed at the works. The inquest on the bodies wail formally
opened on Saturday, and adjourned until to-day (Tuesday).
