evening last, a little boy was espied sitting on
the track, seemingly unconscious OF the APP

down brakes alarmingly fasf, and the widest
excitement ensued among the passengers on the

minute It'll a sight of the mutilated remains
of the child; when. quick as thought, a young
man, evidently a miner, rushed in front OF the
in saving the boy. The mother, who was near
picked up her child and gave vent to her joy In
alternate screams and kisses. As the train

man most Leartily.-Cumberldnd (RiD Tsmss,

STILL HARPING ON MY DAUGHTRR-Pro-
ceeaings iB Parliament Last Night.-In the Eng
lish House of Commons yesterday evening, HUI
gersOn, replying to a question from Mr.. Coch-
rane, stated that the American Government
had applied for provisional enjoyment OF the
privileges secured by the fishery clauses Of the
treaty of Washington in the waters Of the Bril-
fish North American possessions during the
fishing season. Canada had refused, but New
Foundard and Prince Edwards Island had
given their consent. To inquiries made by Mr.
Boverle and Lord Cecil with reference to the
proceedings at Geneva, Gladstone replied
that the report that a summary of the British
argument on the Alabama claims had been pre-
sented was incorrect. Great Britain had made
application to the arbitrators for an adjourn
ment, doing SO in reliance on Secretary Fish's
dispatch. 1t was possible the arbitrators might
not come to decision on this question in to-
days sitting; hence it would not be courteous to
make full statement. In the House Of Lords
Cairns asked whether The report that a printed
copy OF the argument for Great Britain had
been presented at Geneva was true. Granville
replied that he had already stated what Eng
land would do at Geneva, and refused to die
close what be privately knew. Cairns said the
answer was unintelligible, and repeated his
question. Grsnville-The argument has NOT
been presented. (Laughter.)

THE ENGLISH REsoLUTE AND THE AMERICANS
FIRM.
NEW YORK, June 1S.-The HerdId's special
from Geneva dated the nth instant says: The
jOurnment, and the indications are that IL this
is not granted they will withdraw from the
arbitration. This the Americans will not con-
cede, though shorter adjournment might be
accepted. Very little was transacted before the
board to-day beside the announcement OF Mr.,
DAVIS OF the non-reception of instructions from
MS government. There is some re ssOn 10 bel: ye
that the main difficulty in the arbitration has
been reached upon which IL is possible ID con-
tnue the arbitration. The English agents
received on Sunday night long dispatch from
their government, and subsequently a meeting
ROundefl Palmer and VIM n. NJ E VsTse" Tn S e
news had been published here tn at Lord Ora n
Vile had stated in the House OF Lords that the
English agents would present summary OF the
English argument before the board, but Lord
Granville's subsequent explanation is not gene
rally known here. This statement, therefore,
greatly mystified both sides, as no summary had
how such summary could have been pre-
sented without their knowledge. At the
MEETING BETWEEN SIR ROUNDED PALMER AND
Mr.. RvARTS.
All this was explained, and a distinct under
standing had upon other points Of the dispatch.
The different members are making preparations
to stay considerable period. The general view
OF the court is against a postponement for eight
months. 1t believes that if the President OF the
United States was disposed to go further in
regard to the suppleme ntary article, he could
convene the Senate in a few weeks, and If he
will not do so in a few weeks, he will not in
eight months.
THE AMERICANS WON'T BACK DOWN.
1t is therefore regarded as unlikely that there
Will be any change in the American position
The officers Of the court are evidently giving the
whole business most serious care, and dealing
with the matter IN q manner 80 th 1T their action
may not in the slightest degree embarrass either
party. II the court should make any suggestion
nature OF a compromise, but at present the
tribunal merely listens to the statements made
on both sides.
