TmR FAMINE AND THE CHoLRRA IN PEP
srA.--The latest news from the East IL Of the
most distressing character. Persia is suffering
from that terrible visitation, the cholera.
Aftor months Of famine, during which timc
the suGerings Of the unfortunate Persians
have been fearful In the extreme, the cholera
now appears to complete their measure Of
misery. Dreadful, indeed, as were the suffer-
ings Of the people with the one, they will DO
increased tenfold now with the cholera ex-
tending and laying waste whole districts.
Since 1917 We have had nothing so dreadful
TO record. It almost seems as If the cholera
was again about TO make its tour of death as II
did in the first quarter Of the present century.

The New Spanish Ministry.

According to our special despatch from
Madrid tho resignation of the Ministry was
caused by dissensions with regard to the
International. Marshal Serrano advocated
the rigorous suppression of that organiza-
ton, while his colleagues favored . more
conciliatory policy. The Cortes was
somewhat uproarious on the subject
of the Ministerial resignation, but
noise and fuss are Of such frequent occur
renee in that assembly that Its unruly charac-
ter has become almost proverbial. The names
of the new Cabinet which has been formed by
Marshal Serrano are not familiar to US, with
the exception Of Admiral Malcampo, who till
recently had command of the naval forces at
Havana. disappointment as Minister Of Marine
seems to indicate purpose Of carrying on the
hut In every other respect 1t is without sig
nifcance. The other members Of the Minis
try, If their names have been cor rectly re-
ported, are obscure mon, and will probably be
short-lived. It IL possible that the new
Cabinet is only temporary arrangement, in
order that the King may gain time to form
another strong and popular ministry. We can
not close our eyes to the fact that KING Amadeus
has much hard work to accomplish before he
can find himself happy on the Spanish throne.
Spain being . most Catholic country, 1t is a
drawback to him that he is member Of the
mathematical House of Savoy. But 1t is to
be hoped that all things may yet go on well in
old Spain;

the usual outcry Of favortism. Some claim
that they have been left out in tho cold alto
gether. 1t is not unlikely that the disafected
will appeal from the decision of Judge Bar
nard and that before this Park gets beyond
its present stage--a park on paper-there
will be long and holly contested litigation IN
the courts In regard to it.

VIRGINIA persistently adheres to many OK
ploded ideas of public policy. Among the
relics of bygone ages which the Old Do
minion so fervently adheres to is that of public
executions. One Of these questionable exbi-
billions Of the majesty Of the law took place
yesterday, at Greenville, In the hanging Of
Thomas McGif1n, who had been convicted Of
the crime of murder. The execution was wit
messed by an immense crowd, q large portion
of whom were women and children. The
horror Of the scene was intensified BY the
breaking Of the rope, which let the half
strangled culprit fall to the ground with thud
that sent half Of the spectators terror stricken
10 their homes. After half an hour spent In
readjusting the scaffold and repairing the rope
the trap was again sprung, and McGinin
finally launched into eternity.
TIE REPORT OF GENERAL SHALRR.-Maior
General Shaler, commanding the First
division of the National Guard, has made his
report of the operations Of the militia during
the recent riots. He fully sets forth all the
movements Of the troops under his command,
ppchhp AZ pioioo Va snO uAAAoious Svm-
mands and OF the police, and has word
against the complaints Of misconduct on
the part OF some of the regiments on the
day of the riot. There can be no doubt
that the work OF suppressing the mob
was as effectively performed as was
possible under the circumstances, and all
who took part In II are deserving Of praise
rather than censure. But the taste Of General
Shalers defence against the unwise animal
versions OF few firebrands is somewhat ques-
tionable--a fact which he seems to recognize.
1t Ii better to let these idle and mischievous
agitators talk on without noticing their foolish
charges than TO dignity them by refuting their
allegations. The riots are past, and it is time

When at the crossing of the railroad track r at at the point named, they were struck by the excursion train gong to Highland. Three of the inmates of the wagon were killed outright, two mortally and four or five severely wounded.
 At the point where the accident occur red there is clear view of the railroad track for mile to the west and some four miles to the east but it appears that none of the party saw or heard the approaching train, although the engineer blew the whistle and rung the bell.

It is propos- ed to take petroleum and place it in an aiastfght cisterh, surro ounded with a COW, ering or1jackeb, into which is introd duced' boiling water by means of "a coiLof pip, ing within the, ,cistern and under the sur face of the oil, to raise the oil to about 212o Fahrenheit. a The top of the cover-- ing jacket is provided with self-acting valve regulated to sthe desired pressure. Through alt inlet pipe is passed current of air over the surface of the oil, which becomes cafbufized. The carbonized air is condhcted into 8 larger pipe enter ing the trtYere of, the blast furnace or cupola employed fin the manufacture or melting of the iron or steel, to form common, conduit int togwhich all the gases and vapors supplied, to the furnace or cupolaS at the ' 'tdyere are passed and by--which they are conducted to the furnace or eupola. srIhegiplet anth out let Pipes Fare eachS provided with a tap.
 In ,retort or close chamber exposed to heat is placed a compound of chloride ofehmei or bleach ng powder, intimately mixed with about one-eighth its weight of dry crushed charcoal, coke, or other carbonaceous matter. This mixture evolves chlorine and carbonic oxide. A continuous current of air is passed over the materials,in this retprt, and is acon- 'ducted into a larger pipe, which receives l the,carbufized blast furnace or ,,cupola. l :-I ss Another retorrt contains quantity of @quicklimel and nitrate of soda, which, l by the. aid of heat, ,env Ives uncomb mbined oxygen and nitrogen, nitrous acid and nitrous oxide gases. A current of air is also forced over these snaaterialS before 1t passes into the common circuit of the aforesaid gases and air.
