that Germany has asked Italy whether she will
continue to exempt the Pope from the obllga-

The extraordinary dimnutiOn in the impor-
tation of tea and coffee into Canada country
during the past month compared with the col
responding month of 1874 is ascribed by the
merchants to the abolition of the 10 per cent.
duty in favor of Canadian merchants upon
shipments from American cities into the %
minion. 1t is held that the abolition OF the
tax has not cheapened tea or coffee for CON
sumers, but has only effectually strangled d.
rect Canadian importation.

FALL RIVER, March 1.-THE day opened
delightful and spring-like. AT an early hour
this morning flags were displayed at half-mast
on the city buildings Several places of bust
ness were tastefully draped. The streets in the
immediate vicinity of Jos. ii. Butfington's res
idence where tho funeral services were held
were thronged. At the hour the floral decora-
tions were largely increased this forenoon by
ample tributes from friends near and remote.
Rev. DR.. Adams led the exercises and the open
ing was the chant sob why should the spirit
of mortal be proud" Passages OF scripture
were then read by DIR. Adams following which
WAS hymn to the tune of Dennis, after which
Rev. Father Murphy of st. Mary's Roman
Catholic church was introduced, who made
some very appropriate remarks. He was fol-
lowed in order by Revs lockwood, McGlath-
cry, Reed, Burnham, Butler, Small, and the
final address was by Rev. DR.. Adams.
Fall River Strikers.
Everything has been quiet around tho Mer-
chants Mill to day. They are running about
the same as yesterday. The Border City Her
aid of this evening suggests to the operatives
whether it would not be advisable for the whole
body OF strikers to go to their mills 1t once and
resume their various employments, ask no as
surapce or pledge but leave the result in the
hands of the treasurer and superintendent till
it be seen what they will dolon theifrst of April
or thereafter. 1t is believed that if this course
should lie taken by the operatives the manu-
facturers would at an early day as possible,
if not On the first of April. give the operatives
that which is now demanded. The Weavers
Union received notice to-day that Lonesdale,
T. l., had subscribed $500 in their aid. An

Gen Sheridan Says there is an Improved
State of Feeling.
New YORK March, 1.-THE Tribune says
that Gen. Sherman had q conversation with
President Grant yesterday, in regard to the
condition of affairs in Louisiana, and the Lieut..
General is understood to have. assured the
President that within the last three weeks
marked change for the better has taken place
in that state The excitement has greatly SUBJ
sided, and Sheridan apprehended no further IN
reference with tho Kellogg government. The
continued presence of the troops is, however,
considered desirable and proper precaation
The General believes that the proposed Wheel
er compromise will be fully accepted, and it IS
the best remedy for the condition of affairs in
Louisiana. Gen. Sheridan leaves Washington
to return to New Orleans, first visiting Chica-
90. He will remain in the South as long as he
deems his presence necessary.

Troops to be Removed When the Conn
promise is Effected.
WASHINGTON, March 11.-Gen Sheridan left
here to-day, returning to New Orleans by way
of Chicago. His conduct in the late troubles
in that city are approved by the President.
When the pending compromise is fully consum-
mated portion of the troops will be with
drawn from New Orleans. Late private ad-
vices from that city show that while few ul-
ira politicians on both sides are not inclined to
a settlement on the proposed basis, large
majority of the people. including merchants
and planters. are willing for peace on almost
any terms, as their material interests have
been seriously injured by the continued politi-
cal connections.
