GERMANY.

"Herr Schneider," of the Fifth Field Battery of the
Prussian Guard Artillery, has died. This decease, which
is advertised in the Vosoische Zeitung, is not that of a great
general, nor an officer, nor even a soldier. "Herr
Schneider" was a distinguished goat. He came into
possession of the Fifth Battery during the war of
1864, and marched at its head throughout the terrible
campaign of 1866. He received rations, regularly
attended parade, and took his place amongst the non-com-
missioned officers. When hostilities commenced- the
favourite of the regiment was tied up to one of the ammu-
nition waggons and kept in the rear, but during the battle
of Koniginhof, when the roar of cannon and discharges
of small arms were at their highest, the military spirit of
Herr Schneider broke out, and he managed to slip away
and go to the front at full gallop, the orderly following
as fast as he could in order to recover his charge.
Just at that moment the Crown Prince met
them, and inquired of the orderly what he
was doing with the goat. On being informed of the
state of affairs, his Royal Highness appeared much
amused, and said, jocosely, "Let him go ; he has orders to
attack the enemy, and will be in the mille before any of
you." Herr Schneider returned to the ammunition
waggon none the worse for his bravado. He had pre-
viously been made a sergeant by the soldiers, but after
this exploit he was elevated to the dignity of sergeant-
major. He escaped all the dangers of the campaign
unscathed, and marched at the head of the battery in the
memorable triumphant entry of the army into Berlin in
September.
Count Bismarck has returned to Berlin and has corn.
menced business by a long interview with the King. He has
also paid several visits to the chief diplomatic notabilities.
The Paris correspondent of the Inelipendance Beige says
that the great Prussian statesman has obtained from the
King promises of a conciliatory policy with respect to
North Schleswig. Count Bismarck wants to have done
with Denmark.

FIJI.

The only intelligence of regular and orderly proceedings
from the obscure State of Fiji is that the King has paid
the first instalment of the debt to the United States. All
the rest is chaos. The islands are devastated by a war
waged against the settlers, cruel atrocities being perpe-
trated. The colonists are driven from their plantations
and their buildings burnt. The British war steamer
Challenger has destroyed a native village, killing 41 savages.
The natives, it seems, are judicious in their cannibalism.
They eat up a missionary and his wife, but preserve the
children. Things do not look very promising for the
irrepressible Briton in Fiji. The Australian Government
has bought rights in the islands, and a thousand emigrants
have settled there. If they finally suooeed, we shall not

MR. HOWARD, SURGEON-DENTIST, 52,
Fleet-street, has introduced an entirely new de-
scription of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without
springs, wires, or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble
the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the ori-
ginals by the closest observer ; they will never change
colour or decay, and will be found superior to any teeth
ever before used. This method does not require the
extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will
support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is gua-
ranteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed
teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in masti-
cation.

THE WIGAN EXPLOSION.

The Mayor of Wigan has presided over a meeting
in the borough police-court, for the purpose of
raising a fund for the sufferers by the explosion.
He said the calamity had left twenty widows and
fifty-eight orphans. A subscription list was sent
round, and, including the £250 from the proprietors,
nearly £BOO was raised in the room, of which the
representatives of the Wigan Coal and Iron Com-
pany gave £2OO. An appeal was also made to
London, Liverpool, Manchester, and other great
towns. Sufferers hy these dreadful accidents never
appeal in vain to the public for help. How is it that
so little interest is shewn in the search of a remedy
which might render such charity unnecessary F

AN ARISTOCRATIC VICE.

A letter appears in the Telegraph, signed by eight
:enants of Colonel Gardner. At the late Windsor
election these men all voted for the Liberal candi-
date, and by a curious coincidence they have all of
t
hem received notice to quit, or to pay up arrears of
rent within seven days, with the threat of execution
as an alternative. There are other sufferers, who do
not wish their nameS to be made public. One
of the eight having been accused of disgraceful
conduct. as the reason for his ejection, writes to
deny that he ever insulted Colonel Gardner, and
pertinently remarks that no Conservative has
received any notice, while so many Liberals have.
There is one instance of tyranny circumstantially
stated in another letter. It appears that Colonel
Gardner is going to present a petition against the
return of his opponent, and to ask for a commission
of inquiry into the mode of election at the Royal
borough. He is a brave man. There is little doubt
that many a man has been condemned in a criminal
court on lea circumstantial evidence than that which

to
orove his tyranny.

FOXIIIINTING.

It will be remembered that Mr. Frewen, one or
the candidates for North Leicestershire (all the three
candidates were Conservatives), wrote to the Duke
of Rutland an ill-spelt and ill-tempered letter a
the subject of foxhunting. Ile did not think..
Clowes had sufficient claims to represent sportsmen
in Parliament. It is now said that Mr. Frewen has
ordered Mr. Tailby,the master, to keep off his grounds.
The Leicester Journal is horrified, and refuses
to believe that "a family who have so many years
been friends to foxhunting, should leave a blot on
the family escutcheon which several generations will
not get rid of." This sounds very solemn language
for such a subject, but with certain people m Leicester-
shire foxhunting is the sole business of life,
from which they derive both the pleasures of memory
and hope, and the intense enjoyment of the present.
Dr. Johnson once said foxhuntcrs were " a pack of
fools running after a stir';." We have no doubt the
Leicestershire farmers would hold the lexicographer
very ehe.in if this were told them.

THE JAMAICA Q UESTION.
Mr.
.Charles Buxton, having been charged with
circulating private libels vgjinst Mr. Eyre, has at
last published the document referred to, which was a
defence drawn up by himself for the perusal of
certain constituents. The etefence is very lengthy
and circumstantial, and the facts are verified by three
barristers, who say the official documents fully sus-
tain the statements to which they are appended. As
we have repeatedly said, for all useful
purposes the
question of the merits of the insurrection in Jamaica
and its suppression is closed, and any reference to it
now can only create ill-blood.

PROTECTION WANTED.

A correspondent of the Daily News declares that
many young men of Liberal opinions at Cheltenham
either abstain from voting or vote on the other side.
The reason is that nearly all their customers are Con-
Bervatives, and that it is with them a question of life
or death. One would have thought that men had
learnt the folly and uselessness of making sham
proselytes by putting in peril their lives or means
of living. If history has not taught this much,
it has been written to a great extent in vain.

A shareholder of the P. and 0. Company learns
with surprise that the managers have coerced the men
under them. Ile speaks very strongly upon this
abuse of power, which he calls a violation of every
principle of moral right. Men in this position do a
double wrong—a wrong to those whose property
they administer, and a wrong to those who are under
them.

This alteration is to commence to-morrow. It is

excluded from such employment.

sequence of the sanctioning of the Army Bill,
would offer their services in defence of their King
and country. This declaration was received with
much enthusiasm.

The bill limiting the powers of military courts
was adopted, after a warm debate, in accordance
with the liberal amendments of Herr Deak.
The draft of the budget for 1869 has also been
agreed to after a warm debate.

TIIE HUDSON'S BAY TERRITORY.

The Canadian News announces that the Colonial
Minister has sent an ultimatim to the Hudson's Bay
Company, respecting the territory now under their con-
trol. The terms of this demand are supposed to be the
same as those recently published by the same journal.
The Company is to surrender to the Imperial
Government all territorial rights of the entire
property—retaining their existing trading posts, with a
reasonable reservation of laud around each—and
receiving in payment a small share of the proceeds
of the land sales and a portion of the revenue derived by
the Canadian Government from gold licenses. The mini-
mum price of the land is fixed at ls. per acre, out of which,
and as realised, their proportion is to be paid. The share-
holders will be greatly disappointed at this result. They
looked to receiving at least a million from the Govern•
ment.

A LONDON MYSTERY.

The Middlesex coroner has been holding an inquest
on the body of a man found in the Thames. The
evidence shewed a probability that the man had been
murdered. The deceased was found lying at the
bottom of Battlebridge stairs, Tooley-street, with
his clothes wet. This was early on the Friday morn
ing. The night before, his proceedings had been
noticed by the police, and he appeared to be wander-
ing about in the public-houses drinking. The
last seen of him was about midnight, when
he was speaking to a young woman. It appears
that the deceased wore -jewellery, and among other
things a gold chain. This was gone when his body
was found. He was watched by several policemen,
who saw him followed by some orange girls, with
whom he afterwards entered a public-house. The
man was cautioned against his company, but it seems
the caution did not save him, and in the early morn-
ing he was found dead. The proceedings have been
adjourned, to give the police an opportunity of find-
ing the girls. London is infested by these sharks,
most of them generally well known to the police
and the publicans, and permitted to nrev ui,on the
unwary.

REMARKS.

The oscillations in pressure have been considerable since Saturday,
but on the whole there has been a great increase : readings are now
comparatively high in the S. of these islands, where there has been
a very sudden rise since last evening, amounting to almost O'6in. at
stations. The difference of pressure between Rochefort and Aber-
deen amounts to six-tenths of an inch. Temperature yesterday con-
tinued steady, but this morning it is a little lower. The gale noticed
in our Saturday afternoon's report became very violent during the
night in the Irish and English Channels, and on our S.E. coast. Th•
wind lulled yesterday morning, but during last night it freshened
again to a very heavyS.W. gale in the Channel. AtYarmouth the wind
was south-easterly. Winds have veered generally, and are this
morning moderate from the W. in these islands: in the Bay of Biscay
a strong southerly wind is blowing. Rain has been general and large
in amount. Cloudy weather Is prevalent. The sea has gone down.
Atmospherical conditions look a little more settled than they have
done for the last few days.

DESTRUCTIVE GALE.

The neavy rain of Friday night was succeeded on Satin.-
Jay by a gale, which blew for several hours over the
metropolis, and generally throughout the country. At
various periods during the day the wind was accompanied
with heavy showers of rain, and its force was very great
throughout the night. The gale was productive, as far
le can at present be ascertained, of but little damage
:n London, but in the suburbs its effects were more severely
felt. During the day several collisions, which took place
both above and below London Bridge were attributable to
the gale.
On Sunday the wind was again very strong, and there
was heavy rain about noon. At night the wind raged
with great fury. It is many years since so heavy a gale

CARIIIAGE OF VOTERS BY RAILWAY.

In the City of London Court on Saturday an action to
recover £3 railway fare and cab fares was heard. Mr.
Lewis, for the plaintiff, said his client carried on business
'n the City, and the defendant was connected with one

and vote he should be paid his travelling expenses.
Plaintiff came up, his railway fare being 505., and
his cab fares about 10s. more. He had not

of Parliament.—His Hononr: There is Sir F. Slade's case.

MOB OUTRAGES IN ELPEIN.

A correspondent of the Dublin Express writes :—" When
news came to Elphin that The O'Conor bon was
returned for Roscommon, a party of men and boys went
about the town collecting money and turf. With the
money they bought whiskey, and with the turf they lit a
large fire just beside the cathedral. They went into some
farmer's house looking for his son, and, when they could
not find him, they took the father and pulled out all his
teeth. He was nearly 70 years of age. They also took
Dne butcher's son, a young man of about 23 years of
age, and beat him, then kicked him about the streets
Dpposit e our house. When the young fellow's friends
heard of this they collected a large party, and arrived
with big sticks and ropes. They went about the street
beating every person they could meet. The two con-
stables were out, but only got themselves hurt. They
have had more prisoners for the fortnight the men were
may than they have had for the last twelve months. Up
