JOHN III. DEANES ASSIGNMENT
Temporary Embarrassment of n Well.
Known Philanthropist.

The New York papers OF yesterday made
the announcement that Mr.. John III.
Deane, OF that city, had been compelled TO
make an assignment. Although it is the
opinion OF Mr.. Deane's largest creditors
that his matters will soon straigbten them
selves. the news even Of his temporary
embarrassment will be received with wide
spread regret. Mr.. Deane was a philan-
thropist OF the most practical kind. He
was prominently connected with the Bap-
tist Church, and his generosity to the in
stitutlons connected with that denOmina-
tion particularly has made bis name fami-
liar throughout the United States. He has
given TO the Church and its institutions
over 100000 in money, which sum in
cludes several handsome donations to Rich
mond College. The Times says:
"Mr. Chamberlain, the assignee, thought
the unsecured liabilities, including the
preferences, would not exceed 100000.
This amount, Of course, did not include
mortgages, as the property was greatly in
excess OF the amount OF the mortgages
thereon. His assets were not definitely
known as yet, and it would require some
time to complete an inventory, but they
were largely in excess OF the liabilities,
and, after settling up matters, Mr.. Deane
would, no doubt, have good fortune still
left. The assets consist OF many houses.
built and in process of building, and mort
cages on real estate which he took for
property sold by him. His buildings are
all rented, and he has a large income from
his rents"

LONDON, April 23.-After to-day's
Cabinet council dispatch was sent
10 General Wood asking for the de-
tails OF the plan OF the proposed eXpedi-
ton for the relief OF Berber. The majority
OF the Cabinet are in favor OF sending a
small force OF English and Egyptian SOL
diers, but before finally giving their assent
they insist that Nubar Pasha and General
Wood shall state the exact number OF the
force, what the equipments will De, and
the probable cost OF the expedition.
II is reported that General Wood pro-
poses that one thousand men be sent, nall
Of them English. According to advices
from Cairo many English officers volunteer
for the expedition, which will be ready to
start in ten days II the camel transport
used in the Red Sea expedition is available.
Nubar Pasha has telegraphed TO Hussein
Pasha, the Governor OF Berber, 10 maintain
his post, rs relief may now be hoped for.
Earl Granville proposes TO include among
the conditions OF the adherence OF the
Powers 10 the projected Egyptian financial
reforms the stipulation that the capltula-
fions shall be so altered as to permit OF the
taxation Of foreigners. The conference on
Egyptian financial affairs will not meet un-
eli the bases are fully settled. The French
press insist that France will assert her
rights in Egypt and reject the placing OF
the debt under British guarantee. Such
a course would be likely to lead to annexa-
tion.
