FOREIGN NEWS.

London, 3. In the House of Commons to.
dey, Mr.. Gladstone apologized for not being
able to make a definite statement with regard
to the negotiations with the United States az
he had promised the House. The postpone
ment of the day of adjournment by the Amer
lean Senate rendered a full explanation i'm
possible. AS for the supplemental article to
the treaty of Washington he would assure
the members that it did not leave the subject
of indirect claims, present or future, open
for misunderstanding hereafter, and in this
view Mr.. Schenck, the American Minister,
conceded. lie gave an account Of the pre-
cedng negotiations, and said that the sugges-
ton was made that England should draft an
additional article whereby she was to make
certain agreements for the future, and the
United States was to undertake not to pass
the indirect claims. This suggestion was
accepted ard acted upon. The defculty
which had since arisen did not touch the main
point.
Disraeli called attention to the fact that
the Premier had omitted to state whether
the arbitration was to proceed on the 10Th
instant.
Mr.. Gladstone replied that this date had
been kept carefully in view of the negotia-
tons.
Mr.. Horseman put the following question
that the United States government is inclined
to withdraw from Secretary Fsihs position
that concession from England must precede
any settlement?
Mr.. Gladstone replied that the under
standing is that the United States makes no
claim touching indirect damages at Geneva
These words Her Majesty's government be-
lieved bear but one meaning, and in that
Mr.. Schenck agrees with the United States
Mr.. Osborne considered that the explana-
ton amounted TO nothing. The House and
country were not satisfied. lie hoped dis
tinct declaration would be extorted from the
government, that unless the indirect claims
were fully, fairly and immediately withdrawn
Great Britain will refuse TO proceed with tho
| arbitration.
Mr.. Bourerie said that he had heard the
! statement of the Premier with alarm. He
hoped that the government would not accept
Minister Schenck's verbal assurance
Niscount Berry gave notice he should move
an address to the Queen similar t., that of
Earl Russell in the House of Lords, for the
withdrawal of Great Britain from the arbi-
tra,on unless the indirect claims are aban-
doned by the United States.
Mr.. Wynham inquired whether care had
been taken that indirect claims should not be
raised
| Mr. Otway said they had been warned of
the danger of fresh engagements with the
United States, and he wanted to know wheth-
err any new engagements had been made or
accepted by the government of Great Brit
ain.
Mr. Gregory begged to know if the gov
eminent had the assurance of the American
Minister, Mr.. Schenck, in writing.

Although music manifests itself sensuousy
in its gentle delectations Of the organs of the
ear, tits essentially q mental participation
and an intelligent enjoyment. This appears
in the analysis both of the causes and the
effect of music. The melody of the soul de-
mands expression. There are conditions of
the mind that find their most appropriate ex-
position in harmony of sweet sounds, just
as there are conditions that find their most
fitting expression in tears, lamentation, laugh
ter and the various forms of speech. Every
one has experienced the desire, occurring
without suggestion of sound, but prompted
by an inward movement Of the mind, to burst
out in song. Sometimes this state OF the soul
finds its best expression in the grand and mel
ancholy measures Of Mozart, sometimes in
the limpeds notes of Mendelssohn, sometimes
in the soft exaltations of Rossini, or the sweet
concords of Beethoven, and sometimes in the
coarse strains of O,phee aur Enters and
