bull spectators were slaughtered: After this
was over, the price rallied to 62a, but later
fell off again to 604, finally rallylng again TO
62. The balance of the stock market was

The MURDER OF LORD MAYo.-Captain Bru-
ton, the great African traveller, In long letter
to 8 leading London journal on this subject,
saws: s'I am unwilling to see an event no less
portentous than the murder Of the British
YIceroy of India so little understood. so little
appreciated by the people of England. In my
humble opinion the loss of half dozen pitch
ed battles would have less shaken our pres
tIge, which In the East means influence, not
'humbug.' believe 1t to be, politically speak
Ing, the hardest blow yet struck at US; while
its consequences are likely to be still more In
furious. From Chinese Yun.ran to Moroccan
Cape Non the report will fly that the 'Kafr'
Governor OF Hindostan has been struck down
by the Aoslem knife, the Faith will glory In
the deed, and Ell Islam VIII number, another
saiDted memory" Captain Burton goes on to
explain, according to the faith Of Islam the
assassin is believed to pass to the highest para
disc. Perhaps it was knowledge Oft this
tenet, coupled with his observation of the
temper of the East India Mohammedans, that
caused Mr.. Seward during bis late visit to
utter the remark, justified by later events, that
the next political problem which the English
would have to deal with In those possessions
would be that OF fsnatical assassination.
