The father who was near, saw his son
fall; and 10 agony sprang to his relief.

been inevitably crushed TO atoms be-

says the Gazette, is tiIe official report made

have occasioned the rebellious explosion
which signalized his accession to the
throne. Agreeably to the report the rami.
fications of the conspiracy extended
throughout the empire, in almost every
province of which organized bands of re-
formers existed. The proiesscd object was
the establishment of representative 90
yernment.
Manufacturing Distress. There never
was such an appalling and awful aspect be-
fore us: II things continue many months
as they are at present, there must be re-
oeliion before Christmas. 1913 and II92
are nothing in comparison with 1896, when
the extent Of commerce and the Increase
Of population are taken into consideration
a cramped circulation and the destruction
of credit and confidence, which Il will take
gears to restore, have paralyzed every de-
partmcnt of commerce, and brought the
country to a state Of misery and despair.
The commercial affection Of the country
continues undated. The seribes in th'
nav of the Trinidad Planters have beer
lately drawing comparisons to prove tha
the negroes are better off than our owl

In the north, the merchants are losin!
