| LONDON, Nov. 9.-The lord may
or's banquet this evening was at

sons. Washington, the French ali-
bassador, in replying to the toast il
honor. Of the foreign ministers ssii
there Was no greater guarantee &!
peace than the hearty, cordial aud
loyal friendship of Great Britain and
France. France had made great poo
gress and he had confidence in her
future policy. The French gov
ernment was earnestly trying
to settle the Pending qut=-
ton affecting France. His mis-
sion in London was one Of reaee.
France wished to approach Great
Britain in a spirit Of good will, and
he met the same desire on the part
of England. (Cheers.) The master
of rolls responded to the toast IL
honor Of Her Majesty's Judges. He
referred to the recent visit of Lord
Chief Justice Coleridge in America.
and said the later found il America
the law administered with all itg
faults and its good qualities, but had
found the law as administered il
E: gland and America the most n'tr-
ciful, most generous and most Just
ever administered to any people.
Gladstone replied to the toast "In
Honor Of Her Majesty's Ministers,'
Referring to Waddingtou's speech,
he said: "Our heariiest and best
wishes are with France in every
career of peace, justice and orderly
government IN which she may tnd
it to her interest TO enter. Referring
to the Missionary Shaw affair he
said what had M from the French
Government had been offered rather
than demanded. He believed The il
cident would tend to confirm the
good feeling between The two coun-
tries. Gladstone said orders had been
given for tine Withdrawal Of aport;or
OF the British forces from Egypt and
that the withdra wal would Include
the evacuation of Cairo. All liz
great powers Of Europe had DECLARED
their attachment for the cause q

said there is much to be done nluci2
to be desired, and much to be lament
ed, but there ls also mulch TO hT-
hoped for. Peace and order mu-L be
firmly maintained. lCheers.
Count DeLessers. in replying to
the toast, "our foreign guests eX-
pressed the conviction that III his aI~
preaching interviews with the MEL!
chants and ship owners of Great
Britain on the Suez Canal question:
the spirit of fair play by which, he
would be guided would dissipate ali

New York and Brooklyn clamored
for a bridge for years. The great
work has been completed sometime
and the travel over it is enormous.
But the journals of both cities now
complain that the fare ia too high,
and ask that the bridge be made free.
Probably In a year or so hence they
will want a chrome or a bonus in
money to travel over it at all. Some
people don't seem to know when
they have q good thing.

SOME STOVE.

SOME STOVE.
"Taking about Stoves" said Tom
French to a company gathered about
the hotel stove. "Talking abou!
stoves! You see that ere stove!
W-a-al, that ERE stoves got more
draft than a volcaner. I about lost
my life by that 'ere stove this very
fall. Ye see. l was haulin' it from
town, and Jim Smith was drivin'
while I sot on the stove to prevent it
shassayin' about in the wagon. AS
We driv up the gulch the wind came
tearin' through, and, as luck woul i
have it, the front shaft of that infer
nal stove was open. I was settin' on
enc of the holes, and the covers was
all packed in the oven. when, all OF a
sudden, come a tremendous gust Of
wind, aud as sure as shootin', the
draft was so strong that I was
drawed clean through that hole back
wards and throwed ont through the
pipe-holder!"
And that wasn't the wust Of it,"
chimed in Jim Smith, who sat by;
"for just as Tom was pitched up
through the pipe, l stood up to "a
whar he'd land, when the draft of
that very stove took my hat, and in
less than a minute it pulled the coat
right oyer my head, while just as my
west aud shirt was a-goin' scuttlin'
through that stove I jumped to one
side to save myself from helm drawed
naked!"
YES" resumed Tom. "And after
I got back to the wagon, and we
started up agin, the wind got so
strong and worked that draft 80 pow
erful that the bosses found it harder
and harder to pull, till at last they
had to stop stock still, and the draft
on that stove hauled that wagon
clean out of the harness, and it start
ed off backwards and never stopped
till it got to the foot of the big hill,
was to much for it,"

BUTLER AMI MALONE

II is as fitting a. it is significant
that Butler and Malone go down
In the same political cyclone. Both
were originally Democrats, and both
left the party for purposes of self-ag-
grandizement. Both were received
with open arms by the Repablican
party, and both did a large amount
of dirty work for their new-found
friends. Both were we'll hated by
the Democratic party. and both were
looked upon with contempt by the
more conscientious Republicans.
Both were used ~ long IS they were
of service to the dominant party,
and, when they ceased to be-, We're
unceremeniously kicked out of 1t.
And both have received the reward
of political traitors. Butler has
closed his political career. BY bring
ing to his support the greenback and
free-love element Of Massachusetts,
and by in~gratiating himself In the
graces of the disconnected elements
Of the Republican and the Demo.

himself Governor Of the Bay State.

he been contented with the COM
mendations showered upon him for
the good work he performed during
his administration and confined his
ambition to acts deserving Of that
praise, Ben Butler would have been
reelected Governor Of Massachusetts,
