Mrs. Draper, who accompanied him,

Prof. G. F. Barker, Of the University

to the study of the corona, using the

President Henry Morton, of the Ste.

LONDON. Jan. 24.--In the house Of
commons, after Sir Stafford Northcote's
notification, the Marquis of Harrington,
leader of the Liberal party, asked how
Sir Stafford would reconcile the incon-
sistency of this with the promise made
the fire: night of the session not to
make proposal until the conditions Of
peace were received, aud whether he
would make any other statement calcu-
lated to allay the anxiety sure to be
raised by the notice. Sir Stafford re-
minded the House that he expected the
first night to know the terms Of peace
within two days A week had elapsed,
aud not only were the government not
in possession of the terms of peace,
but considerable Russian forces were
still advancing. and therefore the gov
ernment think they cannot longer de-
lay the proposal.
In the House of Lords, BcscOnsfield'
in response to question by the Duke
of Argyle, spoke in the same strain as
Sir Stafford Northcote. Beaconsfeld
distinctly said that England was not
going to be dictated tc by any other
power. The Earl of Carnarvop, colon
ial secretary, and Lord Derby, foreign
secretary. were not present. 1t was
rumored in the lobby that the Earl of
Carnsrvon had resignad. Great ex-
element prevailed.
LONDON, Jan. 24.-It is asserted from
Bucharest that the march on Gallipoli
is military necessity for the purpose
of cutting off tbs retreat Of Suleiman,
whose troops are being embarked at
Jennizza, on the Gulf ef Saros
There is considerable apprehension
here that from this military necessity
may grow the military occupation of
Gal!ipoli. which would greatly embar-
rass the English troops in case of hos
tilities.
A correspondent at Pera says that an
armistice has been agreed on, though
the terms are not known. He believes
it includes everything demanded by
Russia. as the Porte is determined to
conclude peace at any price, and allow
the remainder of the fighting, if any
must be done. to be carried on by some
other power.
KEzANLIK. Jan. 24-A portion Of
Suleiman Pasha's train, consisting of
1900 wagons, was captured on the 18th
instsnt near Hermanli, about 40 miles
west FROM Adriauople.
From details received by the Russian
staff, Gen. Gourko's victory at Philip

WILMINGTON, DEL, July ,, ISIS.
Mr.. Edit0r:-This city has been thrown into
great excitement by the fearful accident on
the T., w. and b. railroad, by which four lives
were sacrificed, on Saturday night last.
THE CORoNER'S INQUEST,
which has been very thorough, has no doubt
reached the proper rconcluSion-that is, attach
ing no blame to the employees of the railroad
and lntimating that Harley G. Brown, who
placed the obstruction on the road. was not
heretofore, and is not now, of entirely sound
mind. His conduct in regard to the confeS-
sion he made, seems to confirm this opinion
THE WASHINGTON VICTIM.
VIM. X. Hough, who was killed, and whose
sister resides in your city, was buried this
afternoon; the Rev. c. III. Sentman, of the
Methodist Episcopal church, officiating. The
service was very solemn, and large number
OF persons were in attendance Mr. Hough
was, OF course. unknown to a human being in
Wilmington: yet gentleman formerly of
washington, now residing here, assumed the
responsibility of having religious services on
the occasion As very beautiful incident |
record that little girl brought two small
bouquets OF white flowers, which were placed
Ia the hands of the deceased. 1t showed that
II he was total stranger there were kind
hearts ready to beStOw evidences of respect
Tor his relations, away from whom he so sud
denly died. The railroad company very prop
eriy assumed the expenses of the funeral
