secreted by the late head of the family. It

At the departure Of Sir Henry Parkes,
Prime Minister of New South Wales, from
Plymouth recently, Sir Henry, in response
to the greetings of the Plymouth Corpora
lion, made rather significant remark. He
expressed his delight at the interest shown
In the Aus ralian colonies, and he pointed
out that those colonies now numbered three
million sou's-the same population which
America had when she won her independ-
ence. The colonists, he added, are in
prosperous commercial and financial cOndi-
ton, aud great future lies before them.
At the state concert, given recently in
London in honor Of the Queens birthday,
Nine. Pauline Lucca and Nine. Patti s0ug.
An unfortunate mistake, of which Nine.
Patti was the victim, led to some lively talk
and action. 1t appears that when tn latter
was driven up to the equerries' entrance
the usual entrance for stngers-her driver
was hidden to seek another door. The ser
want was unable to discover another en-
trance, and Nine. Patti was finally forced to
enter the Palace through the kitchen door.
Her Indignation NAV, possibly, be imagined.
l. was only after abject apologies had been
made to her that she consented to sing.
A couple OF Russian engineers have
brought torpedo boats to great practical
bilitY. One boat, which is only twelve or
fifteen feet long, cigar-shaped, with pro
peller worked by four me1 and d supply OF
compressed air, goes under the water at any
desired depth. Her normal balance is Just
below the surface, with only a glass hood
above water for the lookout. He takes
sight and bearings, goes under the hostile
ship, leaves a torpedo which sticks to the
bottom, pays out an electric wire beyond
range, touches it off, and the big ship is no
where. The other does the same on
larger scale, being propelled by steam

An interesting reception was held the
other night in the new offices Of the London
Daily Telegraph. Nearly nine hundred per-
sons were present at the reception. They
staid so late that they were able to take
away with them copies Of the morning
papers. The large crowd IN the Offices IN,

the Prince OF Wales and Mrs Lawson, the

crowd which had gathered in Fleet street.
Partisan society is now suffering-s0 a
correspondent savs-'rOm acute Anglo
mania. The men and women are Angltcized
from head to foot. Even the little milllner
girls wear sthet1c sleeves putted at the
shoulder. The cafes are taking the names
- f=v nd Ion &c
being transformed by an infusion Of Eng
lish elements. The aristOcrats give their
children Englis1 names; and in high So
ciety It is considered the right thing to have
none but English servants, and to speak to
them IN English. French novels are
abandoned In favor of Thackeray and
Dickens, or Herbert Spencer, who "a
favorite with the ladies. Dinner is served
In the English style. On some tables even
English dry sherry has made it's appearance.
In short, the "chic Anglais" is ali the rage,
and the FRINGE Of Wales is the modern
French exquisite's model Of manners and
elegance.
The State Of Michigan keeps an easy lead
of its sister commonwealth in the produc-
ton of malaria and mosquitoes. So much
is generally acknowledged. Butts suprema-
cy in more important directions is not so
well understood. 1t has a lake coast of six
teen hundred miles. ItprOduced 4 0C0 GEO.
600 feet OF lumber In 1881, the largest
amount produced In any State of the Union.
1t produced Is, 000,0 coo bushels Of salt, dou-
BILE the amount produced in any other State.
It produces nine-tentbs of the copper made
In the United States. In 1881 1t turned out
1880, 600 tons of iron ore, greater out turn
than was made In Pennsylvania, and Of bet
Ter quality. IL produces three times the
amount Of charcoal iron produced In any
other State. These figures will astonish
many persons who have not kept an eye
upon the advancing strides OF this great
State: but they are only an Indie alton OF the
resources that lie falloW to the hand of
development.
O'Donovan Rosa, the champion blather-
skite, remarked on Sunday to a New York
reporter owe shall pursue a line of action
which was marked out two years ago. Had
my advice been followed Liverpool would
have been In flames on the same day that
Alexandria was fired. Oar people are being
decimated, and the European powers are
concerned only by the sufferipgs of the
foreigners in Egypt. The time has then
come when we can carry the wsr-as the
perfidious Saxon is doing nOw-into Africa.
Ii the men now on their way reach there
before another truce is concluded not an
English vessel will escape. We blew up
three of their irOnclsCs on the Danube
during the Russo-TurliIsh war, and we have
now impressed men into the service that
will attend to the Suez canal" Don't you
think you are divu'ging too mUch?" said
the reporter. "NOt at all" was the reply:

his detectives to ascertain our plans he
