THE Foley OF THE NEW MINIsTRY.
PARIS, August S.-Duclerc, the new pre-
mier, read his statement in the Chamber to-
day. In addition to what was outlined in
Mondays dispatches, he said it was the first
duty of the government 10 declare how it re-
garded the recent vote refusing Egyptian
credits, in consequence of which vote the
late ministry resigned and the present one
assumed Office. The new ministry con-
eidered it by no means an act of abb
dication, but a vote of prudence and
reserve, and would loyalty accept its spirit.
There were important internal questions.
but the government would consider them
during recess, and would do its utmost
to obtain liberal and progressive solutions.
1t would also be the object of the govern
ment TO unite and conciliate the various sec-
tions of the Republican majority.

ant for relief provided by the bill,
is too stringent. The government viii sub
stitute the words: "shall 30 far as they con-
sideS reasonable" He also declared that the
government are unable to accept certain
minor amendments, particularly that pro-
viding for an appeal to the Land commits
sion, which they will only per-
NIT in regard to points of law.
The government wished to introduce
every possible Improvement in the language
of the bill 30 as to make concession and
avoid conflict; also that If conflict arises
the government will not be responsible for
the consequences. He asked the support Of
the government in the interest of England
and Scotland as well as Ireland.
Sir Northcoie followed Gladstone.
Parnell said he regretted the concession
of Gladstone, which might be mischievous.
He asked whether the government would
stand by them, or, as IN the case of the land
act, yield further when the bill was returned
from the House of Lords.
The first amendment of the Lords was re-
jected-296 against 157.
All others of Gladstone's proposal were
agreed to.

cluded is likely to be passed. a British out
post ran away at one place, and at the first
serious engagement before Alexandria the
British, after "being compelled to bring into
action all their troops available" and "suf-
fering somewhat" withdrew, leaving the
enemy still in full possession OF his lines.
They compelled the enemy to display his
force and guns-a thing the enemy never
fails 10 do in battle-then withdrew, saying
that to bring about tha. display was all the
object they had in view. The sight of that
force and those guus did not encourage them
TO hold the ground they occupied. Some
days ago it was reported that Arab Pasha
had paraded through Cairo large number
of natives dressed in British uniforms in
order to make the people believe he had
taken so many prisoners. Now, where did
Arab pc. tnose uniforms? And who knows
that the men in them were natives of Egypt?
Who can say, indeed, that that incident did
not relate to n well concealed calamity to
come other British regiment2

WHITE wITHDRAws
From the Congressional Campaign,
Leaving Money a Clear Field.


Special to the Appeal
CoFFEEyILLE, MISS, August S.--The Hon.
Frank S. White, at Pittsboro yesterday,
withdrew his name from the congressional
and called on his friends 10 sup
port Mr.. Money. Although he had strong
support, he saw that Mr.. Money was the
strongest, and, like man, withdrew, rather
than engender further feeling in the cam
paign. Mr.. White is deserving man, and
will in due time have the acknowledgements
of the people. Mr.. Money will now be nom
mated by acclamation, and will receive the
enthusiastic support of the entire district.
As matters now stand, it appears the entire
old delegation will be returned, unless it be
Colonel Hooker, OF the Seventh district, who
will likely be succeeded by Major E. Barks-
dale, of Jackson.

THE BISHOP OF BRE:

THE BIsHoP OF BREsT's BONBsHELL.
BERLIN, August 8.-The Liberal press
animadvert upon the decision of the bishop
of Brest, to the effect that Roman Catholic
parish priests who have remained faithful to
the laws of the country and have been en-
trusted with parochial functions, are re-
quired to lay down their Offices under pain of
auathema. 1t is pointed out that this decision
may prove the germ of serious conflict, as
the laws of the country protect public func-
tionaries, and prelates are liable 10 fines
and imprisonment. The government is said
to be surprised at the action of the bishop of
Brest, he being considered mild and con-
ciliatory ecclesiastic.

ENGLAND.

LONDON, August 8-The Daily Nesrs says
of the many rumors current concerning the
intentions Of the Lords, only one apparently
is supported BY fact. 1t is that number of
influential peers have intimsted TO the mar
ouis of Salisbury that in the event of his
pushing the conflict on the Commons on the
arrears bill to extremes they will not be able
to vote with him.
ANXIOUS FOR COMPROMISE.
The Times, in a leading article, says: 1--WE
shall say nothing at present OF the inexpedl-
eucy-it might almost be called the immo-
rality-of introducing into an Incomplete
and ill-considered country franchise bill
for the mere sake of raising party cry, but
that would be minor evil compared with
the immediate effect of the loss OF the arrears
bill.n The Times says it hopes both parties
recognize the necessity of compromise, and
will allow no unworthy motive to interfere
with them in the best interest OF the govern
ment.
THE LORDS AMENDMENT REJECTED.
In the Commons this afternoon, Gladstone,
moving the consideration OF the amend
ments of the Lords to the arrears-of-rent
bill, stated that he would ask the House TO
substantially dissent from the first amend
ment The government will propose TO enact
that either landlord or tenant can initiate
proceedings, subjsct TO ten days notice from
the initiating party:
Gladstone also said: HI shall not ask the
House to reject the second amend
meut. but 10 amend 1t Is
to provide that in case where
the tenants right Ia sold within seven years
the landlord shall have q lien on the pro-
ceeds for arrears he had been deprived Of by
the action of the bill TO the extent of one
years rent; the landlord only to have this
lien If the sum realized by the sale of the
tenants right exceed three years rent"
Gladstone declared the amendment of the
Lords, that the land commissioners shall
take into consideration the value Of
the tenants right as an asset when

Another Account.

Special to the Appeal
WNoNA, MISS, August s.-Mr. Money
and Mr.. White, candidates for congressman,
met their appointment at Pittsboro, Calhoun
county, where crowd OF about 800 people
had assembled. Mr.. White made short and
patriotic speech, in which he stated that. in
consequence of Winston county instructing
for Mr.. Money, he was satisfied that he was
beaten; therefore he withdrew from the race.
He said he hoped bis friends would advocate
Mr.. Moneys election as strongly as they
had advocated his (White's) nomination.
Mr.. Money then addressed the audience,
closing amid the enthusiastic applause of
the multitude. Thus happily closes the
canvass until the opposition presents their
candidate. We feel sure the Fourth district
will roll up majority of 10000 for II. d.
Money in November next. 1t not being nee
esssry to fill the remaining appointments,
Mr.. Money, who is suffering from a severe
sore throat, returned TO Winona tonight, to
stay with his family, from whom he has
been separated for the past four months.

A SPECIAL commission is to go from this
country to Mexico to negotiate commercial
treaty with Mexico. rThe President has
nominated General Grant and w. H. Tres
colt as commissioners. The railways now
building in Mexico will bring the two ma
tions into close communication. The COM
merce between them will be greatly increased
and special commercial treaty is, on that
account, absolutely necessary. As both
countries are troubled by protective laws,
the arrangement of treaty will be encum-
bered with difficulties.

Additional Details.

SELMA, August Specials 10 the Times
tonight from about fifty counties in the State
show the election of O'Neal and the Dem
ocratic State ticket by a large major
ity, though much reduced from that
of 1880. The election was very quiet and
a light vote polled everywhere. In the
"black belt" the Republicans were not organ
lied and many negroes voted the Democratic
ticket. In the northern part of the
State the Republican-Independe
back State ticket was successful. In
many counties-Colbert, Cullman, De
Kalb, Elmore, Etowah, Lawrence, Lauder
dale, Limestone, jackson, Madison and
Montgomery-have all elected Independ-
ents to the Legislature. In a num-
ber of counties the Democrats have
been successful by only small ma
jorities, and in others an official count
will be necessary TO decide the result. The
probabilities are that the Democratic State
ticket will not have more than $4,000
majority, and that there will be at least
twenty Independents in the Assembly.

IN THE COMMONS.
The under foreign secretary said no ar
rangement with other powers for the regula-
ton of the political condition of Egypt and
the Suez canal, after restoration, has been
discussed or proposed.
Childers, the war secretary, stated that the
correspondent of the Telegraph, who sent
from Egypt the exaggerated statement in re-
gard to the outpost affair Saturday last, will
not be allowed TO accompany the army.
Childers said the government had no present
intention of embodying the militia, but if
such step became necessary it was satisfsc-
tory TO know that thirty-seven battalions,
containing $4,000 men, had volunteered for
active service.
Gladstone stated that arrangements were
made to prevent telegraphing information to
Arab Pasha from England.

The conduct OF the English House OF
Lords in emasculatiug the Irish arrears bill
has aroused indignation in the country, and
once more the question is asked, "What is
the use of the House of Lords?" The lords
show some disposition squarey to meet the
question, aud TO challenge any attack upon
the upper house. 1t refuses TO become a
mere cipher, bound to adopt what the House
of Commons sends to them, whether it is
agreeable to them TO do so or not. This is
spirited and what self-respect requires, but it
will not change the result. An old and pow
erful institution like the House of Lords
cannot be overturned hastily, nor is it de-
airable that it should be, but the whole sys-
tenn of hereditary legislation is opposed to
modern ideas, aud its abolition is merely
question OF time

The Philsdelphia Telegraph points out
that when the blood-tax duty was removed
from quinine the four manufacturers of that
drug declared hat their business was ruined,
their manufactures would have TO be closed,
and their workuen turned into the streets
no protection, no American quinine. "Not
one of them closed his works, nor discharged
a single workman, nor reduced wages. Nor
did they ever intend to do it. The threat TO
do it was trick TO induce Congress to reim-
pose the duty-a trick that failed. A single
manufacturer of this city, one of firm,
after few years of making quinine, died
leaving a fortune OF $17,OOOO0O. His sur
viving partner, who is continuing the manu-
fscture, is doing quite as comfortably now,
when the duty is removed"
