ously oppose her. 1t would seem,
therefore, as if all avowed British inter-
ests are to be respected, and the danger
Of a conflict between Russia and Eng
land ended. Such, however, is not the
opinion here. 1t is thought that Eng
lands real aim is the humiliation of
Russia. These feelings may possibly

THEssALY REBELS.
An Athens telegram under date of
Feb. 9th, says that the Greeks have
based great hopes on the instruction in
Thessaly, Epirus and Crete. The feel

Several fights occurred in the m eantime,
and the mob sung "Rule Britannia"
After Bradlaugh's departure there was
some heated discussion and more fight
ing. The crowd in and around the park
was estimated at $4,000 to 100000, of
whom 10000 actually took part in the
proceedings. The assemblage gradually
dispersed. A large and excited section
went to boot before GladstOne's resi-
dence, but were prevented from doing
any damage by strong force of police.
