turned it over and over nervously in his

the Court Martial of Arabi.

LONDON, October Mr.. Gladstone, re-
plying to an address presented to him at the
railway station in Penmaen Mawr to-dsy,
referred to the question Of procedure in the
House OF Commons. He said the Hous e
could never meet the tremendous calls upon
Its energies unless It could shake of all
tlmidity and fear Of cant phrases, and set
Itself resolutely to the task of bringing
the procedure into harmony with the calls
upon it.
Referring to Egyptian affairs, Mr.. Glad
stone said he thanked God for the success
OF the British in Egypt. He thanked the
army there snd it's skillful General. The
Wer had proved that the army was compos-
ed 81 men as brave as their forefathers ever
were. The war had been carried on from
the love OF peace and on principles of peace.
In concluding, Mr.. Gladstone said he trust
ed that Egypt would again be prosperous
and happy. His remarks were received
with prolonged cheers.
The War office has arranged that three
battalioDs OF infantry shall remain as a gar
rison at Alexandra aud nine battalions at

dispatch from Cairo to the Standard
says: "The lower classes fail to realize the

stored.n
CAIRO, October 3.-The Khedive has con.
ferred the Grand Gordon of the Order OF
Medjidieh on Lieutenant Generel SirSJ. VI.
Adye. Two batteries of artillery have gone

A separate building is being fitted up for
the reception Of the prisoners to be tried by

are confined, in order to obviate the neces-
sity of conveying them to and fro.

val Of the Khedive at Cairo was being cele-
brated by an illumination at Assivot, a

The Course of the Comet

A Washington dispatch to the Baltimore
Sun of the let says: "Prof. Edgar Frfebv.
who IS conducting the observations of the
comet from the Naval Observatory in this
city, says the impression Of some observers
that the comet struck the sun IN it's iourney
tnrougn the heavens is incorrect. He says
from the observations made YESTERDAY morn.
ing the nucleus appeared to be from rs 10
~ degrees In the direction Of the tau, and
ABOUT or seconds broad, and verv bright.
Inc tall appeared about Is degrees long. II
terminates very abruptly, and Is about TX
degrees In cross section. The outlines
OF the tail are sharp and well
oenned. 1t is observable between 4
ana q. m. In the eastern sky.
Prof. Frisby says the comet was nearest
the sun September II. At that time lt was
not more than 300, 600 or 400, 900 miles from
the suns surface. It was then moving from
the sun. On the 18th Of September It was
about II, ,000, 600 miles from the sun; on the
2lst 1t was about %. 900. 900 miles, and It is
now about 60 0O0, 900 distant from the sun.
The Professor says its motion decreases as
1t gets further away from the sun. When
observed yesterday morning It was moving
In southwesterly direction. It's position
was about 10h. Ann. right ascension and
six degrees twentY-seVen minutes south de-
clination. He says It is now about ITO .000,-
900 miles from the earth. Professor Frisby
produced several illustrations and calcu-
lstions to prove that the comet has
not yet come In contact with the sun. AS
shown by the figures above It is travelling
away from the sun as fast as possible. He
