~, inst, Mt l0:45 q. m. His death was
oanssd by cmbolism. 1t took every.
BODY BY surprise, and the Empress, the
attendanh Snd household were unpre-
9ared for it. Tho event has produc-
q Z deep impression in London, where
TIE Emperor was always personally
very popular with the masses, and in
Parie, and in other parts Of France, it
~ ca.sed . profound sensention. The
slnperialists regard his death as final
bsow 70 all their hopes. 1t is rumored
however, that the friends Of the Emper-
oe1Hill in tho assembly, acknowledge the
Esfnes Imperial as the rightful ruler.
What the affect of this event will have
npon France, is hard to determine. The
1ssnch minister At Washington is said
- have stated Tho Empire is dead,
now-shst the man has died" The min

message was read to the legislatnrs. He
congratalatss the State 1pon the ealn
which hAs succeeded the national cleo

of tie States cast their votes tor the same

He recommends following the example
of tho last legislature in refusing to

amount of State debt is SIS, 1886, 725,
showing a reduction of over four mil

means will soon be adopted by which
transportation will be rendered moro

Of the present system of city govern
