THE STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL at Mechanics
hall last night, by means of which the ladies of
the Plymouth society sought to raise funds for
their parish, was complete success-as it could
not fail to be, having such delightful evening
to aid in calling the people to attend. Both the
floor and the galleries were well filled with the
friends of the society, and the delicious berries
found ready sale at the tables on the south
side of the floor. AT about half past eight, the
members of the Amherst college glee club came
upon the platform, and the audience took seats
while they sang half dozen or more of their
songs. The club is under the leadership of H.
H. Sawyer, and consists of S. P. Butler, G. NJ
Howe, A. R. Paine, N. D. Barrows, S. R. Bon
nell, Geo. Fowler, d. L. Holbrook, r. D. NAL
lery, G. A. Leland and l.. Mears. These young
gentlemen kindly volunteered their services, to
assist the ladies of the church in their entertain
ment, and have the assurance, on returning to
their studies this morning, that their singing
was appreciated, and that the concert added
greatly to the enjoyment of the evening. The
medley arranged by the club was a very pleas
ing one, and called forth enthusiastic applause;
several of the pieces were old college songs.

with the American minister ON the night of

the people are expressing fears of American
intervention.
Positive assurances are given Of Cabinet
changes next month. 1t is rumored that
Sgnor M. Romeo will soon 60 to Washing

THE GRAIN TRADE.-The record at the
Grain Exchange shows that the quantity of
wheat offered there from 1st July to 25th
instant was 2s7 900 bushels, or over 3S
per cent. less than the quantity offered du-
ring the corresponding period of 1870, and
only 5000 bushels less than the quantity
offered for same period of lS66-a short
crop year. A deficit of $500, 900 in the in
come of our wheat growers is no small
amount, and explains in part the financial
stringency now prevailing. The quantity
of oats offered from July lst to 25th inst.
is just 2S7 bushels more than the offerings
for the same period of last year, but the
prices are fifteen cents higher this year,
The cultivation Of rye in this section of yir-
ginia seems to be "playing out" From
lst July to 25th November, in 1868, TIE
offerings ON Change were 24,936 bushels.
They have been decreasing annually, and
this year, so far, only amount to 1892
bushels. The offerings of corn date from
lst November, when the new crop begins
to appear in the market. Since that date
this year the quantity offered is nearly
double the quantity offered for the same
time last year. Prices of prime white
compare as follows: In 1871, 50 cents
in 1870, 81 cents.

THE INSPECTION YESTERDAY AFTER
NooN.-The inspection of the fire appara-
tus of the city yesterday afternoon was
iminenty satisfactory, the members Of the
brigade as well as the machines proving
themselves to be in tir-tCp condition, so far
as strict observance ef discipline could
promote such a condition.. The point
selected by Chief Ainslie for tie trial of
the engines was at the intersection of
Seventh street and. the canal. Engine A,
the smallest of the lot, threw water through
q one-inch nozzle, l95 feet; b, with q
nozzle of the same size, $50 feet; c, $50
feet; ID, 230 feet. Engines B and G were
manufactured in Richmond, and A and ID
in Philadelphia. Company +, whose house
is located on Church Hill, were out in uni
form with their truck, hose and reel, and
although they didn't squirt much water.
we hope they win soon be provided with a
new steamer which will prove equal to any
in the department. %
As we stated yesterday, the 'sAlertsv
of Manchester, were in the city, handsomely
uniformed, and their splendid apparatus
bright as new silver dollar. They
marched through the streets, headed by
Smiths band, and as they passed the in
spection ground of the Richmond depart
ment, they DOTTED their helmets and cheered
their comrades in arms. One feature of
the 8 Alert's' parade was fine picture of
the late Chief Charters, suspended on the
hose-reel. ~

Paris, Nov. 2s.-At six O'Clock Rossel
Ferre, and Bourgiose, were taken from
their cells, under strong guard, to Camp
Sartory, where hollow square was formed
and the condemned placed at one end. The
behavior of the three men was most cour.

AT seven O'Clock company advanced,
and the command being given, levelled their
muskets and fired. Rossel was killed in
stantly, but the others were not SO
fortunate. They writhed to the ground,
when the soldiers, obeying orders, gave
them the coup dc grace with pistols. The
bodies were then placed in plain coffins.
Three thousand troops witnessed the
execution, and the sensation produced was
profound.

Brussels, Nov. 2S.--The agitation against

King for the dismissal of the ministers are
pouring in from every quarter. An inn
mense mass of people is assembled in front
Of the Palais de Ia Nation. The appear
ance of the multitude is threatening, but
strong force of troops is on the ground, and
although they have so far succeeded in pre-
venting violence to persons or destruction
OF property, cries OF ''Resign! Resign Y"
are heard on every side of the palace. The
temper of the people is dangerous and the
situation is critical. The impression is
that the ministers will yield, as they did in
the case Of De Decker, and tender their re-
signations to the King.
