GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS.



St Petersburg Letter.
The preparations at Moscow are being
pushed as much as possible, In the Kremln
ali the towers on the outer wall are sur
rounded by scafolding, and even on all sides
of the Great Ivan" the highest point of that
ancient castle, workmen can be seen high up
in their hanging seats. The electric illumn-
alton has been completed, and every night
powerful light is displayed over the principal
tower, like great star The inner parts of
the Kremlin are also still barricaded with
scaffolding for the erection of three large
stands, next to the church with the imperial
sepulchres All the foreign embassies have
rented quarters at enormous prices, paying
from 1000 to $4,000 rubes for the short
period of the coronation. One high state
official pays 1850 rubles for three rooms
at the hotel, and 1000 rubles extra
for each additional room. Many Mos
cow residents intend to leave the city
during the ceremony, in order to escape the
exorbitant expense for all necessaries of life.
Carriages will cost from fifty to eighty rubles
per day, and many of the foreign guests will
therefore bring their own horses. All the
windows on the Twerskaya, where the cor
onaton procession will pass after leaving
the Peters Park, have been rented for
months already at the rate OF 100 rubles per
window. The highest officials of the empire,
the Council of State. the Ministerial Com
mittee, the Senate and the Holy Synod will
take up their temporary residence at Moscow
during the coronation. For the safety OF
the city, special guard (Okhrana) will be
formed, consisting of $4,000 citizens, who
will be selected from each division. The
total strength of the troops at Moscow dur
ing the coronation is now fixed at 50, 900
men, with no fewer than 121 generals and

Khartoum Correspondence New York Herald
Since our arrival here five days ago, we
have been fully occupied III inspecting the
garrison, and as far as possible getting every
thing ready for the start up the White Nile
next week. General Hicks has decided, inn
mediately on the arrival of the Nordenfeldt
guns which will be here in six days, to push
up the White Nile, some two hundred miles,
as far as Kowa A little to the south of this
place, on both banks of the Nile, is strong
force of rebels under Faki-Noosa, the MahdPs
vizier. 1t is proposed to dislodge this force,
sweep the whole of the western portion of
the Seminar clear of the rebels and establish
posts at intervals along the Nile. In the
meantime it is hoped that Abd-el-Kader
Pacha, who is on the eastern side of SEMINAR,
will continue his victorious career II these
expectations should be realized six weeks
hence the whole of Seminar will once more
be subject to the Egyptian government. and
the Generals attention can then be directed
to the subjugaton OF Darfur and Kordofan.
News arrived here Yesterday morning that
Abd-el-Kader Pacha has had a second sue
cess. 1t appears that on Saturday last he at
tackled the rebels mt Sekhedi, six hours from

Daniel Drew on Measuring Bushel.

burlington hAMheJos
About the time that Daniel Drew began
his Wall-street career. he was up the country
one time to visit some friends. and two farm
ers called upon him to decide a case One
sold the other five bushels of wheat, and pro-
posed TO measure it in a half bushel and to
sweep the top of the measure with stick.
The other objected, and Uncle Daniel was
asked to decide.
We'll, legally speaking, bushel is only
bushe," he answered.
And can tine measure be swept OFF,"
'Certainly?"
"What with?'
"Well, if l was selling wheat should
probably use half the end of -four barrel"
(Which edge of it?''
Gentlemen, that is point I cannot now
decide on" sighed the old man. IF | was
selling to widow or preacher | am GER
tam that should sweep the measure with
straight edge, but if l was selling to man
who pastures his cows in the road and his
pigs in his neighbours corn, Pm afraid l
should use the circular side, and scoop it a
little to boot"

Improved Condition of the People--The Emil
grafton scheme Abandoned.

LONDON, April 24-Lord Carlingford, Lord
President of the Council and Minister of
Agriculture, replying, in the House of
Lords, yesterday, to Lord Dunraven's re-
marks regarding the condition of the people
in Ireland, said the accounts from the dis
dressed districts had been decidedly more
encouraging during the last few weeks. He
said the government were agreed that emf
grafton was the best and inevitable remedy
for the distress, but they had neither the
right nor was it necessary to force it upon
the people. The government had received
hopeful offer for the removal of number of
selected families across the Atlantic. In
consequence of this statement the motion of
Lord Dunraven for the adoption of scheme
of emigration was withdrawn.

to the report. If tine report suggests reprsals

Dynamite Consultations.

Rall MAIL GaZette.
a very reassuring letter on the subject OF
nitro-glycerine and dynamite appears in the
Times this morning from the manager of
NobePs Explosives Company. The writer
points out that the popular belief as TO the
destructive qualities of these explosives is a
great delusion. The effect of explosions of
nitro-glycerine is intensely local-'the power
exerted on surrounding objects is in the in
verse ratio of the cube of the distance from
the point of the explosion" Hence, if
ton of nitro glycerine were fired in the mid
die OF the Strand, it would wreck the houses
immediately opposite, but its effect would
be strictly confined to a very small area. At
a distance of sixty yards byStanders would
not be injured, except by falling glass and
the explosion. instead of destroying ali Lon
don, would hardly be heard over the metro
polian area. The scare therefore, as to the
possibility of blowing up London is entirely
baseless. Dynamitards, even with tons of
nitro glycerine at their disposal, cannot lay
a whole city in ruins-not even street
They may iniure special buildings, but that
is the most they can do"

Futility of the Dynamite Policy.

G. W. Smalley's London Letter in New York Tribune
can hardly express too often my belief of
the utter futility of all this dynamite bust
ness. Putting aside the savage wickedness of
such efforts what strikes me most forcibly is
the stupidity that lies at the bottom of the
acts which the Irish seek to dignity by the
name of a policy. So dense is it as to be on
the whole incredible. man in fit of fury
such as possesses most of the Irish in Amer
lea, is capable of doing extremely idiotic
things But it is hard to believe he can per-
suade himself that the people OF England are
really going to be terrified by nitro-glycerine
into submission to the Irish demand Tor indie
pendence. In the high sense the English-and
it is just as true of the Americans so far as we
come from the old stock-are the proudest
and most courageous race on the earth. Their
Irish enemies profess to hold that this
proud brave people can be driven into a
panic by great danger or by the actual in
fiction Of great loss of life and property
by anumber of wicked not brave Irish dyn-
anters. Do they believe that? I can only
tell you what people here think. They do
not regard the dyr-.4ite and nitro-glycer-
inc ''poliey" as seriously directed to a great
political or revolutionary purpose. They
think it merely vindictive. They look upon
1t as an explosion OF teroclons hatred.
They consider the men concerned in
it, the men who devise these plots
of destruction, as actuated by no hope
of accomplishing what they desire or of re-
ally promoting the separation of Ireland
from England. In English eyes they are
men DESTROYS. in a spirit OF blind luminosity,
to do whatever mischief they can out of re-
Yenge. the spirit is precisely that which
leads man of base and brutal nature to
shoot his enemy from behind a HEDGE or hea T.
him over the head with stick. The ruaan
VINO does this looks to no advantage. He
gives way to furious passion, and that is
what Patrick Ford has long done in advocat-
ing outrage in Ireland and now does in aIvo-
eating destruction by dynamite in England.
