ANOTHER FISH STORY.
A Large School of Whales Seen From a
Vessel in MID Ocean.
New YORK, June %

NEW YORK, June 70.
The schooner N. B. Millen, Capt Young,
from Savannah, now at this port, reports that
on June 20th in latitude 80 deg, 80 min.,
longitude "a deg, IA min, while in . dead
calm and smooth sea, they were surrounded
by q school of whales az far as the eye could
reach.
They were seen coming to the surface and
blowing. They came in such close proximity
to the vessel and they could be reached from
the deck with a common harpoon. They
spouted water agsinst the side. and lay per-
fectly still for several moments; then rolled
leisurely over and sank down, tail foremost,
until they stood perpendicular in the water
so that their full length and size could be as
nearly estimated a. though they had been on
land. They swan around the vessel for
about three hours, and did not seem to be in
the least shy.
1t Was q magnificent sight. the ocean being
As clear rs . mirror, with Rot ripple to OBJ
struct the view.
They we're from 35 to 40 feet long; square
blunt head; eyes small. and about three feet
below the top of the head, and we'll back
from the nose. Their blow was low, and
somewhat resembled the water from q
sprinkler. Their heads we're from five to
six feet in depth. and the after parts were
much smaller in proportion.
After about three hours . light breeze
came up and We sailed away from the school,
which did not seem TO be making any head
way to any part OF the compass.

THE EGYPTIAN QUESTION.
O6cial Correspondence Between Earl
Granville and the French Minister.

LONDON, June %.
1t is officially announced that under date oi
June Is. Earl Granville, foreign secretary of
State, addressed q note to Waddington,
French minister, the substance of which was
rs follows.
England undertakes to withdraw her troops
from, Egypt at the beginning Of the year lSSs
in case the powers shall consider such with
drawal possible without endangering public
order. Caisse de La Dette publique after
1885, will have consultative voice in regard
to the Budget and will have the right to veto
any increase of expenses on the part of the
government.
II shall continue to exercise the right of f.
nancial inspection after the evacuation Of the
country by England, so as to insure complete
and regular collection of revenue. England
also undertakes to PROFOUND schemes to ports
and powers for naturalization of Egypt like
Belgium and for naturalization Of Sue z
Canal.
In his reply, Waddington gave assurances
of satisfaction, with which Fance noted the
point suggested bv Grunuillc. France" he
said accepts Granville's proposal and testi-
fies to England the moderation and friendly
spirit which it believes will strengthen bends
that bind the two countries together"
In the House of Commons to-day, Glad
stone made statement concernlng the
Egyptian question, which fully confirmed the
official report already given of the substance
of the recent correspondence between Earl
Granville and Waddington.
The naturalization of Egypt, the Prime
Minister said. is to be deferred until England
withdraws from the country. Gladstone fur
ther stated that the conference Of the powers
would meet next Saturday.
1t is supposed that it would be to decide in
regard to the Egyptian finance, but no decis-
ion which it might form would be of any
force until Parliament should give its assent
In Commons this evening, Sir Stafford
Northcote expressed his opposition to the
statement that the issue of Earl Granville .
circnlar, convening Egyptian conference on
tho 2Sth inst is with a view of influencing
Parliament during the approaching discus
sion of the motion to censure the Govern
ment on its Egyptian policy.
Randolph Churchill denounces the state
ments as ludicrous assurances from the French
to the government to the effect that if they
will accept the provisions of the Granville
circular, if such assurance exist, and will
possibly be repudiated within "a hours, and
are absolutely valueless.
Henry DE Labouchre urged the House to
support the Government Lord Churchilfs
policy, he said, was tending to war with
France.

Robbing Public Lands Of Timber.

The next measure to which the House at
tempted to address itself was one to repeal
the Presumption and Timber Culture acts.
The necessity Of this measure has been fully
shown during the last year by the reports of
special agents of the general land Office. All
agree in showing that great frauds have been
and are being practiced under both laws, and
that the public domain is being rapidly de-
lepted by speculators who obtain possession of
and title to all the most desirable portions of
as soon as they are admitted to entry, to the
exclusion of actual settlers; 76 democrats
voted against the consideration of this bill.
Its defeat as special order probably seals
its fate for this session, and the land sharks
NAV thank the democratic snajority in the
House for another season in which to conduct
their thieving operations.

The Republican Senatorial Causus tonight
was well attended. The question of final ad-
journmenf was only briefly alluded to, but
discussion of other matters we're proceeded
upon the understanding that the end of the
session would be reached not later than 5th

substantially rs follows:
The Mexican pension bill is to be disposed
of at two o'clock tomorrow. Thereafter,
annual appropriation bills, including the
river and harbor bill. are to have precedence
as fast as they are ready. When no approp-
ration bills are ready the important meas
ures on the calendar are 70 be taken up and
disposed of in the following order. Inter
state commerce bill. the land grant forfeiture
bills, the postal telegraph bill. the bill relat-
ing to the routes of railroads into Washing
ton city, the anti-C Chinese bill, the contract
labor bill, and the bill for the admission of
Dakota. II is not to be expected that all
these measures will be reached, since the
final adjournment will not be delayed for
them after the appropriation bills are disposed

SPAINE AND CUBA.
The Home Government Promises the
Island but Little Relief

MADRID, June 90.
In Congress, Saturday, the West Indian
members advocated the suppression Of export
duties and the reduction of import duties,
reduction of expenses from e34, 900 900 to
$24, 900, 900 and an early conclusion of the
treaty of commerce with America as the only
means of extricatipg Cuba. from the finan-
cial depression nov existing. The govern
meni declared it was impossible for Spain to
assume the Cuban debt and annual deficit.
and that it was impossible to satisfy Cuban
authorities for better commercial relations
with America. which would damage Pensa-
cola trade with the colonies. slight re-
form was promised to facilitate trade, be
tween Spain and Cuba. The depression it
was declared had been aggravated by the
too rarid abolition of slavery. The reply of
the government caused much discomfort
among the Cuban members.
