three, but The King, irritated by some brutali-
ties in a speech by Herr Schels, a reckless
orator of the KeneaIy type, refused to receive
the address. Moreover, he ordered the lmpe-
rial Law Of Civil Marriage, which offendS the
majority, to be at once put in forca. The
Ministers offered their designations, but he
declined II accept them, and the Government
will, therefore, go on in spite of The majority of
the Deputies. AS they are sure to go as far as
they dare, his must lead either to a coup d'etat,
a dissolution, or a suspension Of all legislation,
the latter probably being the course preferred.
If the King dissoIves, he must appeal personally
TO the attachment Of the people to his House,
and a defeat would shake his throne.

The reception of The German Emperor in
Milan has been a success, the spectacle having
so impressed even the Emperor himself that he
autographed his amazement at the scene to the
Empress Augusta, Milan. now that the
square of the Duomo is cleared, is the very
city for a grand scenic display, and all
Lombardy seems to have come in from its rice
fields and corn-iands. The welcome VS.

that the five thousand French residents of
Milan quilted the city to a man before the
Emperor's arrival. The Millennium has not
arrived, but still The illumination was amazing.

The Times correspondent at Berlin, who
always leaves an impression on his readers Of
obtaining his Russian news through the German
Foreign Office, says the Government of St.
Petersburg has been steadily uufavourable to
the ilsurrection in Bosnia, until at last it has
been attacked for t eachery by all Slav papers
outside Russian dominion. The effect of these
deuunciations has been such that the Govern
ment wayers, allows letters to be published
from The seat of war, and has sanctioned the
subscriptions for the insurgents which are now
being collected in most towns If Russia.
Apparently Prince Gortschakoff was alarmed
lest the Southern Slavs should transfer their
friendship to Vienna, where statesmen, though
they want peace just now, never forget that
the destiny of Austria may be to extend to the
southeast; and that an interneciDe quarrel with
the Turkish Siavs will not render their Govern

never was a more obscure bit of history than tho
action of the Powers in this dispute. Apparently,
Russia was hostile, Austria friendly, and Germa-

pilgrims included Mr.. G. A. Smith, Brigham
Young's nephew and First Counsellor Mr.. F.
Little, his Superintendent of Public Works
Mr. Snow, his Treasurer, and Mr.. Jennings,
Superintendent Of Emigration. The Pasha
himself WAS friendly to the project, and the
Mohammedans Of Syria considered the Nor

enough to buy any concessions at Constantine
