THE SITUATION IN ENGLAND.
LONDON, Jan. 30 = In The English
House OF Commons last night, the
Chancellor OF the EXchequer, after
stating that the Government would re-
quire six million pounds for use in case
the present peace negotiations should
fail, gave a statement of Russia's con-
ditiouR, as communicated By the Rus
sian EinDassador, agreeing exactly with
that published.
On motion OF Lord Harrington, leader
OF tie Opposition in the House, the de-
bate was postponed until Thurs lay,
when there will be one division, and
should the Government have its usual
majority, no further opposition viii be
made to the graft by o division, either
IN motion to go into Committee of the
Whole, OF else on motion to adjourn the
debate IL second time.
The Home Rule members having de-
cided to vote together, they may be able
to give the majority to whichever sld0
they favor. They will not decide for
either party until just before the decid-
ing vote takes place. Contrary to eX-
pectatiop, the Government has MADE
lulS NOt6 u lbSI Vi anu
it be defeated the dissolution OF tac
House will follow. OF this, however,
there is no great probability.

REMONETIZArION AND REPEAL.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-The league Or
association Of members of Congress to
promote the remDhetiz ltion OF silver
md the repeal OF tho resumption act has
now one hundred and seventeen names
enrolled. A caucus last evening was

thing of special interest was a briel
speech from Gen. Butler, in which, as
Stunning the passage OF the silver bill. he
wont to discuss the possibility Of Secre-
tary Sherman undertaking to defeat
The will OF Congress by falling to
purchase coin bullion as required.
On this he suggested that the two
Houses had remedy in the law de-
lining the powers and duty Of the Sec
retary of the Treasury, by calling him
before them in person to answer touch
ing his execution of the law. This
power, it is believed, has never been
exercised, but it exists, in reference to
this department only, the object OF this
and other provisions being obviously to
secure special responsibility to Con

Yee Ley is Chinese laundryman of
convivial habits. His single swings in
the eighteenth ward, and he works hard
all day and sometimes all night, but in
some moments of relaxation he lets the
laundry take care of itself and enjoys q
sociable cruise with some select friends,
most of whom are 'Melicans. Last night
was one of Yee Legs nights OF, and, as
usual, he enjoyed himself. At eleven
p. m his friends left him and he started
on his way home, full of fun and jollity,
and with just the faintest suggestion Of
a stagger in his walk. Whether he had
Orientalized himself with opium or
Occidentalized himself with Mclean
whisky was not asceTtained, but it is
certain that when he was accosted by a
member of the " best police force in the
world" his voice was hoarse and his
tongue was thick. What's yer name 2'
the officer demanded. "Yee (hic)
Ley" the astonished Chinaman re-
piled. {" lie, do l? Well, Pll show

that there was mistake. but unable to

was released, but not without an ad-
monition from the officer: "Larn En-
glish, we ovid haythen."

Justice Under the Khedire.

The following extraordinary story
comes from Cairo, Egypt. Three wo-
men, in miserable dress, were begging at
eight o'clock in the morning. An Ara
bian official, who took pity on the trem-
bling creatures, and fancied that he dis
cerned something more refined in them
than in an ordinary beggar, asked them
what brought them into their distressing
position. He heard a wonderful story.
The three beggar women were three
princesses, who had formerly been the
wives of the Viceroy, Able Pasha, pre-
decessor of the reigning Khedive. They
received a handsome legacy from him,
in the shape of landed possessions, which
yielded sufficient to maintain them in
handsome style, corr responding to their
former rank.
About three years ago the Khedive,
by some of his underlings, required
them to make over their possessions to
the government, engaging that they
should receive regularly paid equiv
alent from the State ReDtes, which
would relieve them of all future anxiety
about the administration of their prop
erty. They readily assented, and for a
short time the coyenanted money was
duly received. After year, however,
all further payment ceased, and they
have not received single penny from
the State from that day to this. At first
they tried to maintain themselves by
selling their jewels and ornaments.
When this store was spent, the prin-
cesses turned washerwomen, but they
earned so little that they fell into dire
trouble from hunger and want
Their story was taken to Mr.. Rivers
Wilson. He had them before him, and
again heard their whole tale from their
own lips. He was convinced of its
truth, and hurried to the Khedive in
order TO procure justice for his ill-used
princess creditors. Meanwhile the
three ladies were seized by an officer
and two soldiers.
How dare you complain of the
Khedive," said an official, {" to that
Christian dog?"
The ladies were carried off to the Pre-
feet of Police, who demanded to hear ex-
actly what they told Mr.. Rivers Wilson,
and ordered them to be logged
Ladies of our rank" they protested,
may not be logged"
Nevertheless, logged they WERE Mr..
Rivers Wilson, of course, heard of this,
and went straight to the Khedive, who
assured him that it had all happened
without his knowledge But the
Eng lishman demanded and obtained the
dismissal and imprisonment of all the
parties concerned in the outrage.
