The PRlNUE VI WALES TUX In INDIA.
Press News from the Asiatic
Empire.
lFrom the Evening Telegram of yesterday
LONDON, Jan. 4, 1876.
The city has been enveloped in the densest
fog of the season. 1t cleared at noon.
THE BURNING OF THE wARsp1TE.
Two youths are missing from the training
ship Warspite, which has been employed in
the service of the Marine Society for the In
struction of Destitute Boys, and which was
burned yesterday morning
1t is supposed that these two boys set the
vessel on fire on account of jealousy caused
by the promotion and reward of other boys
serving on board.
THE LOSS OF THE DEUTSCHLAND.
The decision of the Board of Trade on the
facts which were elected by the inquiry into
the circumstances connected with the loss of
the German steamship Deutschland has not
yet been published. So far the result has
been successful, but there is an unwarranted
CLOSING over of the charges against the wreck
ing people, in exoneration of the Harwichers
THE TIMES ABsoLvEs THE HARwIcHERs.
The Times editorially withdraws its former
structures on the Harwich men and the mutt
lation of the bodies of the dead, leaving the
Illustrated London Ne,oS alone, whose CORE
spondent visited the wreck in company with
the HERALD's correspondent, and furnished
double page truthful illustration. The Nesos
must now fight out the truth with pictorial
assertion, corroboration of which alone can
be found in the columns of the HERALD
MUNICIPAL REWARDS TO THE sALvoRs.
There has been banqueting of the So
called heroes of the salvage as is the mode
In England. The Mayor of Harwich gave
supper to the captain and crew Of the tug
Liverpool, offering corporate congratulations
for their bravery in rescuing so many per-
sons from the wreck.
CASH EQUIVALENT
The worshipful Mayor also presented the
sum of $50, to be divided among the men
serving ON the tug.
SAD SCENE OF REVENGE.
Stokes, the witness in the trial of the
Wainwrights for the murder of Harriet Lane
at Whitechapel, has been banqueted by the
Lane family. Harriet Lanes mother was car
ried from her bed and made long speech,
presenting a memorial to be handed down by
Stokes, the informer for the prosecution, to
his posterity.
NOT IN FAVOR WITH THE PUBLIC.
Unfortunately for Stokes, he is burlesqued
in the London pantomimes and is not
favorite with the people. He has already re-
ceived number of letters threatening his
life.
A RELIGIOUS REVIVAL AT THE HEN AND
CHICKENS.
The latest Wainwright incident is this:-
The Hen and Chickens, where Harriet Lane,
the victim of wainwrights malice, was to
have been buried, has been hired as mis-
sionary hall by some religionists, who quote
Scripture:-"where sin abounded, grace
shall much more abound.
THE BREMERHAvEN HORROR.
The Times, in an editorial on the subject
of the indignation meeting held by Ameri-
cans in Berlin, on account of the comments
of the German press on the Bremerhaven
dynamite explosion horror, considers that
Thomas scheme to enrich himself by
wholesale and purposeless slaughter is char
Acteristic of anything but an American
origin. The disproportion between the
means employed and the end to be attained
is considered security against any repeti-
ton of such deed.
AusTRo-HUNGARY.
Ministerial crisis is impending at Pesth.
Negotiations we're opened yesterday for
renewal for ten years of the compromise Of
1867, when Austria and Hungary dualized.
