THE CONDITION OF PERSIA.
LONDON, July 31.-The Persian minister de-
MES explicitly the reports which have been re-
ceived recently as to the ravages committed by
famine, plague and cholera in Persia. He says
there is undoubtedly a lamentable scarcity of
food among the poorer classes, and that they
are fed at the expense of the government in the
cemeteries because there is in them alone suffi-
cent room to accommodate the great crowds of
people who appeal to the authorities for subsist-
ence. Urder is preserved in the cemeteries by
the police, and from this fact has arisen the story
that force has been employed for the prevention
of the dsinterment of the dead for use as food.
The minister expresses the opinion that all the
horrible statements emanating from his country
are the work of commercial agents.

A GUNPowDER PLoT."-A citizen informs
us that between the suns of the 23d and Path
inst, a powder magazine on the outskirts of the
city was forcibly entered by either young boys
or old boys, and sufficient amount of powder
taken therelrom to cause some anxiety to par
ties concerned, if stored in a private dwelling.
The thieves were not only eccentric in the ma
ture of the spoils sought but were so careless of
their own lives as to force their entrance with
iron implements. The citizen thinks
the guilty parties must feel as did the man
who drew the elephant in the lottery, and Of
fers the following suggestion for their benefit:
" Do not store it in the cellar, for the present
dampness might spoil it; neither in the attic,
for too much light and air might injure it; be-
sides, should your dwelling take fire by accident
you might be the cause of injuring innocent
parties. Now, would it not be better-all things
considerable return the stolen property to the
owners thereof, in which event no questions will
probably be asked. Have it stored in a safe
place, and then receive it in small quantities. Re-
ceve, also, the card, with certain name upon
it, and other evidences found upon the premises.
Quiet your own consciences, save further trouble
to yoursel yes, and avoid the scrutinizing eyes of
the police of the city of Worcester"

Later.-The prince of Wales and party arrived
tonight, and had a popular reception. The
weather was unusually cold for the season, and,
although the streets were crowded, the demon
strations were not so enthusiastic as might have
been under more favorable circumstances The
Fenan element was not absent, and, as the roy
al visitors passed, some Kisses were heard from
the sidewalks. The city is gaily decorated with
flags, but the illumination tonight is not as
general as was expected.

KILLED.-As Mr.. John Harris of Lyn-
don was engaged at work on the Lamoille
Valley Railroad, in Hardwick, mass of
clay, measuring yard or two, fell upon
him, producing injuries which caused his
death within an hour.
The Hardwick Reporter says there are
several singular incidents in regard to the
words and conduct of the deceased, which
now associate themselves with his death,
and would incline one to think that there
may have been some indefinite, and per-
haps unbelieved presentiment in his mind,
of the fate which befel him. 1t is said
that he has lately made the inquiry if
there were tomb in Hard wick, where he
could lie till spring. Only few mo.
ments before the fall he remarked that it
was about time for another accident to
occur, and thstnone had yet occurred on
that section. Not a minute previous to
the accident, he had changed places with
fellow.workmsn. 1t is also said that
the piece of clay was slow in starting,
and that Mr.. Harris was twice called to
by the workmen above him, to stand
aside, but he paid no attention.
