creatures who We're made the tools of the
incendiary and assassin Northcote are more
to be pitied than blamed. Still, they

courage enough TO indict him. The Lib

Stafford Northcote's raid, and reproaches
him for stirring up religious hatred and
civil strife, and he, becoming Harmed, the
telegraph tells us, has addressed letter TO
the mayor of Belfast, expressing regret for
the attack upon the convent last week,
thus confessing his guilty responsibility
for the crime, Had Mr.. Parnell or any
other Irishman of equal standing

called TO witness what dreadful people

GERMANY.

BERLIN, Nov. 2O.-The Prussian diet was
opened to-day by Won Putkamer, minis
ter of the interior. The speech from the
throne set forth that the financial situa-
ton had improved and the working of the
railways by the state had resulted in the
accumulation of considerable surplus.
The new budget does not make any claim
upon the credit of the state, but certain
disproportion continues with regard to
the resources of the treasury as compared
with the demands upon it arising from the
pressure of communal charges and the
inadequacy of the salaries of public Of
hcers. The speech announces bill for
laying tax on incomes derived from
property and of measures for the further
purchase of railways by the state.
In view of the fact that the imperial
budget fixes much smaller meticulatory
contribution, and large revenue expected
from customs duties and tobacco tax, it
will be impossible to frame budget for
1884 and 1856 SO as to effect an equilib-
rum between the receipts and expendi-
lures. The speech concludes by
summmoning the diet to
address itself TO its labors in the security
Of an assured peaceful state of affairs
throughout the country. The budget es-
Inmates the receipts and expenditures for
the fiscal year 1884 at 1,112,SO0,O00 marka
each.
BERLIN, Nov. 2o.-The proposed bill for
the taxation Of incomes referred to in the
royal speech at the opening of the diet.
apply only to incomes from personal
property. Members of the chamber OF
deputies received the speech coldly. They
complain that the passage dealing with the
bills on taxation are not clear. The liberal
newspapers criticise the speech ad-
versely, saying it does not satisfy the pub
lie czriosity concerning real taxation, and
that the programme is generally colorless
and Insignificant. and the proposed bill
taxing the interest accruing from capital
will not obtain majority in the lower
house of the diet, especially while landed
property remains exempt from impost.
BERLIN, Nov. 20.-Fifty persons in
northwest Prussia have been attacked by
trichinosis.
BEEl1N, Nov. 2O-Count Won Novski,
the Russian minister of war, had long
