predictions of the shah, am further
! Informed, are fully shared by his prime
minister, who accompanies him in his
| travels, and who has the reputation OF
being a cultivated and intelligent states
man. The shah desires, in view of GER
/ tain eventualities, to arrive at clear
understanding with the British govern
ment, and he brings with him to our
shores an ardent desire not only 10 ae-
| quire our friendship, but also to study
our institutions. Could he be satisfied
of England's firm support in the diff
culties that he anticipates, he would as
suredly be prepared to Identify his poll
cy in the Asiastie matters with ours, and
he looks forward to the result of his
visit to England with great but hopeful
anxiety"
The London Telegraph, in its issue of
the tenth, says: prince Bismarck has
declared in the German parliament that
1t remains impossible in the present cir
cumstances to fill up the post of the
German envoy to the vatican. The
government of the empire, he added,
would take no part in the next election
to the papacy, but after that event they
would take steps to ascertain whether
the successor to Pope Plus X had been
legally chosen.
AT meeting of the executive COM
mittee of the Western Union telegraph
company held to-day, on motion the
following was unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, 1t has pleased him whose
ways are not our ways to take from bis
friends and from his labors Hon. Horace
+. Clark, and we, who know him well,
desire to record on pages where his name
appears so often an expression of sorrow
for his loss, as well as our tribute to his
varied service; therefore
ResOlUed, That we feel that one who
has been 80 long leader in the material
enterprises of his country, and promi-
nent among the chief men of its chief
city, needs no recital of his works or his
character. The trusts he was filling,
the position he had won, bear testimony
and weight more than words to an in
tegrlty that never was Questioned; to the
mental keenneSs, power and attain
ments manifested on so many exacting
fields; to that broad grasp of the great
undertakings of his time which, yet
with rare felicity, was associated with
exceeding accuracy and mastery of de-
tail, and to that industry which resulted
alike in his success and in his death.
Resolved, That we wish rather to re-
cord here our sense of his wise counsel
and unremitting devotion to the inter-
ests of this company, our sOrrowful re-
collection of long and personal inter-
course and our loss of friend whose
fidelity was positive and who, when he
promised support never wavered or for
got.
RESOLVED, That we tender our sympa-
thy to the family of our deceased friend,
and that the company attend his fune-
raj in body.
GEORGE d. MUNFORD, Secretary.
Additional testimony in the Polaris
