The Tremendous Internal Improve.
meme In france.

Many newspaper readers are doubtless puz-
zled as to the cause Of the new French loan.
French prosperity is 8 by-Word, and the las
budget showed a surplus, as usual. No old
loan is ready for %refunding, and definite ru-
mors of war would certainly precede a war
loan. What, then, is the need for $500, 000,-
900 just now? The apparent, and it will be
admitted, %abundantly sufficient, cause is the
gigantic scheme of internal improvements
which was projected by NJ. Freycinet, and
voted by the Assembly in 1879. Last year
over 300, 600, 900 were spent on this head;
thisyear it was planned to spend 400, 900, OO0f.
Next year the scheme will be under full head
way, and will absorb some 500, 600, 00Of an
nual]y thereafter until 1890, when i is esti-
mated 5000, 600, 00Of will have been spent
on railroads, canals, harbor Improvements,
etc. It seems as though even France could
scarcely carry such a load. Already its debt
is some three times that Of the not very trif-
ling total for the United States. while the
burden per inhabitant is still larger, and yet
the SNOWFALL is still rolled along. When the
bubble does break, France will have the con-
ISOLATION Of having something to show for her
money. A considerable length Of railroad
can be 5uilt for the cost Of the iron-clad
which the cable reports is being planned by
Italy, and while one perpetually swallows
money the other perpetually produces it, and

Mystery OF the Sea.

The brig Alfred of Swansea, with q cargo
of phosphate, was found derelict on the
morning Of the 18th inst, by Augustus Pear
man (pilot about fifteen miles southwest Of
Bermuda Islands. The sea was making q
clean breach over her decks. She had her
ensign union down, and the signal from Mar
ryat's code, 81 am sinking" underneath.
Pearman, with the assistance of two men,
made sail on the vessel and put her aground
in Mullet Bay, in the harbor Of St George.
Her hull, spars, sails and rigging were in
good condition. It is understood that she
was from CoosaW, s. c., and that her cap
tain's name was Winter, and that she only
arrived at the port, she loaded on February
"a. She is to all appearances q new vessel,
Prince Edward Island built. Her chronom-
eter, charts, log-book, ETC., had been re-
moved by the crew. She had three feet Of
water in the hold, but it does not increase
to any extent. 1t is supposed that the vessel
struck on the Southwestern Reefs, off Ber-
muda, on the night of the 18th inst, while
lying to-, and that the crew, when they found
her leaking, took to their boat, with the in
tention Of reaching land, but that ..the boat
must have swamped and all on board drown
ed. J. Fl. Troot, Marshal of the Bermuda
Admiralty Court, has taken charge of the
Alfred, and has put q care-taker on board.
The vessel is owned by j. A. Nicholson, Of
Swansea, and it is said dis1nastered three

Some Big Steamers.

Inc Cunard steamer, the Seryia, though
the largest boat aloat, will not be without a
rival, tor there will shortly be launched from
the Barrow ship-building yard a vessel for
the nina line, to be called the City of Rome,
which, though 500 tons smaller in bulk, is
seventy feet longer, her length being exactly
200 yards. Her engines are calculated to
give her q speed Of eighteen knots also, being
lO,OOO horse power, and as the ship from her
extra length has longer and easier lines than
the other, some predict for her the highest
speed. between these two ships, the Fumes
STA OF the Anchor line, the Alaska of 6,40O
tons, in a forward state of construction for
the Guion line OF the Clyde, the Partisan,
$500 tons, of the Allan line, about to start on
her maiden voyage, and a White Star liner
now being bulls at Belfast, there is likely to
be considerable rivalry and some interesting
ocean racing. The Anglo-American COM
panles are taking advantage of the low price
Of iron, steel and labor, to renew their fleets,
the Cunard Company having &c. 300 tons of
new boats in course of construction on the
Clyde, which, with the Cephalonia, $500
tons, building at Birkenhead, gives g. total of
31,4OO tons. Altogether, taking boats on the
stocks and boats launched, something like
1870, 900 tons Of shipping has lately been
added to the transatlantic fleet.

The Princess Dolgorouka, or the Princess
Jurieyska, as she has been styled since he
~morganatic marriage, was with her sister at
the moment Of the assassination. She drove
rapidly to the winter palace in a sledge, and
remained in the Cars chamber until his ell
dest son entered the ROOM, when she imme-
diately withdrew. Alexander III. had an in
tervieW with her, and her children will be
provided for, while she will be allowed to re-
main in Russia. The emperor even intends
to announce her marriage with his late father
as a last and supreme token Of respect for
his memory. A correspondent Of the Pail
Mall Gazette at Plymouth writes: "a few
weeks ago an advertisement appeared for an
English governess to reside abroad. Among
those who answered the advertisement was
the daughter of a naval officer, who received
a visited from a lady lodging at Newton, who
wished to engage a young lady to go to St
Petersburg and instruct three children in
English. The young lady's father, on apply
ing to the Russian embassy, to which he had
been referred, received such assurances q
removed all s%cruples, and she went to St.
Petersburg. On her arrival there she was
taken to the winter palace, shown the apart
ments she was to occupy, and next day was
introduced to the emperor, and by him taken
to his wife, the Princess Dolgorouka, and
their three children. The Gar explnined to
Miss J. that it was his desire the children
should be laugh English by the companion
ship of al English lady like herself, whose
conversation would familiarize them with the
language, and that he and the princess desired
her to be on affectionate terms with the chill
dren, only she was not to kiss them. Asplen-
did retriever came into the room, and going
up to the new arrival, licked her hand. Call
ing the attention Of the princess to this Incl
dent, the Gar observed that it was a happy
omen of the friendly feeling which he hoped
would exist between Miss J. and her charge"

English C~onquests.
TDetrOit Free-Press. I

The treaty Of peace with the Beers relieves
England, or more especially the Liberal Min
istry, Of q very unWelcome and awkward
piece of business. The conscience and the
intelligence of the country were in silent re-
volt against the national pride or the national
rapacity which tried to steal their territory
and subjugate a proud-spirited and indepen-
dent race. Their effective resistance showed
them to be worthy of a better fate, and the
sympathies of the civilized world went out
for their success. The treaty does not recog-
nize their full independence, but It grants
them local self-goVernment and holds them
in only nominal subsection to the British
own Even the opposition in England will
have to invent objections to he result and
will probably talk of the shame and humilia-
ton of capitulating to 8 successful rebellion.
But the better element will sustain the Minis
try. The false pride which prevented George
III. and his ministers from treating with
American insurgents until they had laid down
their arms, Lord Derby recently described as
the worst form of cowardice. It is but a re-
fusal ito do what you yourself regard as
wise and polite, merely because somebody
else will think il you do not do it, that you
are afraid"
1t is a curious phase in English history
that for the last one hundred years England
has not, without the aid OF allies, waged on
land q great and successful war. The one
possible exception may be the successes won
by Wellington; but these successes were
campaigns; not a war, but only parts of the
great war that Europe was Waging against
Napoleon. Wellington expelled Napoleon's
marshals from Spain, which was naturally
hostile to the usurping and manufactured
King, Joseph Bonaparte and with an army
less than half of which was English he Won
adraWn battle at Waterloo which the Prus.
SLAMS converted into a rout. In the Crimean
war the English were but allies Of the French
and divided the honors with them. They
have conquered Indians, but their foes were
semi-barbarians; while the Afghans, the
Abyssians, the Dahomeys and the Zulus, with
whom Of late the English military forces have
had mainly to contend, are nothing but saw
ages. Indeed, with the. exception Of q brief
period during the administration of the Earl
