From tho London Times, March ~
The FINAL ARRANGEMENTS OF THE WESTERN
PowERs.-Atthe privy council, which Is sum-
moned to meet at Buckingham Palace this
afternoon, it is understood that the orders IN
council which prescribe the conduct of her
majestys forces ard Of Ter subjects during war,
will receive the approval OF her majesty. Ac-
cording to the precedents observed in similar
cases. the first and most important of these
documents is an order of general reprsal
against the ships, goods, and subjects Of the
Emperor Of all the Russias, by virtue Of which
her majestys fleets and cruisers may lawfully
seize aud bring in Russian ships and property,
aud the court Of admiralty is directed to pro-
ceed jndiciously on all such captures. Com
missions and instructions are also signed and
issued to the court Of admiralty of England,
and to the vice.admiralty court abroad, 20 au-
thorize and regulate their proceedings.
Another order of equal Importance is that
which prohibits oil British vessels from fitting
out Tor Russian ports and places general
stop or embargo on such of the encmy's vessels
as may enter the ports or roadsteads OF this
country. Orders Of this nature appear to have
been issued on every declaration of war to
which we have been able to reter--in 1898, in
1903, in 1907, and in lSl2--and they are en-.
tirely conformable to the rights of belligerents
and the acknowledged principles Of maritime
law.
AT the same time, it is always competent to
the crown TO relax or suspend the severity oil
these provisions, and we have no doubt that il
it will be the desire of the British government
to mitigate as far as possible the effects OF the
state of war on private interests. The Mon;-
teur. of yesterday, has published an imperiald dc
claration of the court of France, that an inter.
val OF six weeks, from the declaration Of war
will be granted to Russian ships TO leave
French ports; and, as the French and English
governments have concerted al the measures
they are prepared to take in common, we pre-
sumo that the application Of the embargo OF
Russian ships In English ports will not take

Fire Alarm.-On Sunday night, between ten

The dolefnl cry Of fire." and the ringing Of the
engine bells those sounds blending with the rat
Ting Of the storm aud the fierce bowling Of the
wind. 1t was peculiarly awful, dark hour for a
confagration and the mere idea Of individuals
being compelled 10 flee from their fame-enveloPed
shelter produced The most acute and narrowing
sensations. But, fortunately, nothing more than
a CHIMNEY on fire had given rise to the alarm and
fearful Apprehension.
