man-0f-War. ne II IciiCh VotcTninen has
telegraphed TO Madagascar for details OF
the proceedings complained Of.
During the session OF the House OF
Lords this afternoon LORD salisbury ques-
toned Lord Granville, Foreign Secretary.
as to whether the British forces in MAZDA.
gascar waters would be increased.
Lord Granville said that he could not
make public a statement which might be
misconstrued; more so rs he had reason
to believe that the French Government
were willing to do what was right in the
matter.
The French Government have informed
England that they await official advices
from Tamatave before replying to Lord
GranvilIe's demand for explanations Of the
occurrences there.
The correspondent OF the Reuters Tele-
gram Company ut Paris says the French
Government: has not been Informed Of the
conduct In Tamatave Of Admiral Pierre
referred to by Mr.. Gladstone in the House
OF Commons yesterday.
The French and English Unpleasant.
ness I'm Madagascar.
LONDON. July 12.-The Standards cor
respondent at Paris says he has had an in
terview with Prime Minister Ferry, in the
course OF which Ferry declared that the
excitement in England over the Tamatave
affair must have arisen from misconcep-
ton OF the feelings OF the French Cabinet.
whose most sincere wish was to cultivate
cordial relations with England.
VI. Ferry believed that the occurrence
at Tamatave had been exaggerated. The
deceased British Consul, he said, was
known to be anti-French in his attitude.
The idea that any French admiral would
insult the British flag, NJ. Ferry declared
to be preposterous; and he asserted that
Admiral Pierre could not have ventured to
adopt the extraordinary course attributed
to him.
Pauper immigration Through Can.
ada Denied.
QUEBEC, July 12.-L.iStafford. the Gov
eminent immigration agent at Quebec,
writes as follows to the Chronicle on the
alleged pauper immigration to the States
by way OF Quebec and Montreal
When special agent Howell states that
large numbers OF immigrants arrive ut
Montreal and Quebec almost destitute and
too feeble to support themselves, and that
most OF them are paupers, he states what Is
not correct. Mr.. Howell, though he does
not state so in words, no doubt refers
to Irish immigrants assisted to Canada
this season. the whole OF whom passed
through my hands, and | can safely say
none OF them ware paupers, or had ever
been inmates OF a poor-hOuse. They re-
ceived some money in landing sent out for
their use until settled down at work, which
was easily found for them. | cannot con-
ceive how it should be necessary for them
to go to Plattsburg or Buffalo when have
orders for over fifty families and large
number OF single men and women OF that
class which l am at present unable to sup
ply.
