date: The French gunboat Lutin visited
Tamcni on the northern coast of Formosa
on the 18th inst, and found the entrance of
the harbor blocked. The English gunboat
Zephyr was fred upon yesterday from the
knpai forts. An officer and a sailor were
wounded. The Zephyr was mistaken for a
French vessel Of Il similar appearance. The

crs who lived near the Pagoda anchorage.

Rlotous Proceedings in Brussels

BRUSSELS, September S.-Clericals from
thousands paraded the streets here vest erday
amid the vehement Kissing and bowling of
dense crowds of lockers on. The latter,
soon after the din commenced, became more
demonstratiye, and blocked the procession
and tore down the banners. Fierce scufiles
ensued, and many persons, including sever
oil policemen, were injured. The police
were powerless to stop the disorder, and the
gendarmes and civil guard were called out
and attempted to reorganize the procession.
Their ellorts were futile, however, and the
confusion became general. The mob stop
ped the procession at various places, and
the clrricals, finding themselves unable to
advance, slowly dispersed. The melee grad
nally subsidized, but great excitement pre-
vailed the whole evening. One hundred
and eghtytive arrests were made. 1t is
reported that three Of the injured have
since died. Troops are stationed at various
points 10 preserve order. Great excitement
also prevailed i'll Antwerp yesterday and
numerous riots occurred in sympathy with
the outbreak at Brussels against the cleri-
Gals. The gendarmes dispersed the mob.
All is quiet in this city to-day. Fully a
hundred persons were wounded in the con-
tlict. Several persons were wounded seri.
onsly, but nobody was killed. As the cleri-
Gals who came from the provinces to take
part in the procession were returning to
their homes last night, they were assaulted
hy numbers ofthe opposite party at many
provincial railway stations A large mob
at Antwerp to-day hooted and yelled as the

WHEN temporarily successful dema-
gogue commences to descend to the insig-
niicance from which he emerged, nothing
obstructs his fall, for the very men through
whom he obtained his eminence then leave
him and join his enemies 1t is just the re-
verse with really good and great man.
The principles and policy advocated by a
man who deserves following have binding
force, but those of the demagogue, being
purely selfish, have nothing in them to mer-
1t fidelity, and those who adopt them,
doing so from no higher motive than
that of personal gain, will abandon them, as
is perfectly natural, without hesitation,
when they become unpopular. 1t is so with
Malone. The very men who owe him all
the prominence they have achieved have
now deserted, and are kicking, him.

GENERAL MALONE says no democratic

GENERAL MALONE says no democratic
Congressman from Virginia can have even a
country postmaster appointed. True to
the letter. The General is the boy for
having postmasters appointed. Since he
made his nefarious bargain with President
Arthur there have been more changes in
the postofices in Virginia than in all the
preceding quarter of a century, but, strange
a. it may seem, though the General pro-
fesses to be a republican, all the changes
referred to have consisted in the removal
of republicans and the appointment of scala
Wag democrats.

A PERILous Balloon RIDE.-Carlotta's
balloon ascension from Congress Spring
Park al Saratoga a day or two ago was &C
companed with considerable peril. A live
" breeze carried the air-ship in the direction
of Greenfield mountains, which are heavily
timbereG and, consequently, afford no dcsir-
able landing places. Unloading ballast
Carlotta passed to an upper current, which
carried her in the direction OF Gansevoort
Selecting favorable spot, she allow
ed portion Of the gas to escape,
the balloon descending rapidly. Noticing
three boys, she called to them to seize and
hold the balloon the moment it touched the
ground two Of the boys oheyed her request,
when IL sudden squall drove the balloon
bounding over the ground and fences for
almost a mile. IN It's flight the balloon
described circles fully fifty feet in height.
The lads retained their grasp on the bas-
ket and were carried along with speed
and at a height that fairly blanched their
countenances. Nearing heavy piece of
timber, and fearing serious accident
Carotta watched her opportunity, as the
balloon again touched the ground, and ripped the
Zephyr" the named of the air-ship, open from
ton to bottom completely wrecking it, The sud
den arrest and iiattcning out Of the balloon IN
sured a prr,nancnt landing, and. aside from
slight lar Carlo;ta and the bombing boys cs-
caprd injury. Al or the color had returned to
the hoys' cheeks they remarked that 1t was lois

TIE NORTHERN republican newspapers,
now that they see thatwhat the democratic
papers of Virginia have told them from
the first about Mahone-that be was
drawback rather than help to re
publicanism-is true, they also have
turned against him, and are pounding
him now that he is down. The american,
of Philadelphia, in abiding to the loss Of
the Generals transient power, says:
Mr.. "Mahone has attained his present emil
nsnce in the politics of the State by means
and measures so Objectionable, that his
overthrow is to be desired in higher inter
ests than those of party. His permanent
success as political leader would be an en-.

THE TAMMANY HALL democrats having

THE TAMMANY HALL democrats having
met and determined to support Cleveland,
the Washington Republican says:
"Tammany has been tardy in taking ac-
ton upon the matter, but there has never
baen any very good reason to suppose that
lite formal course would be other than that
agreed upon. It's members are democrats
It is democratic organization. 1t could
not afford 10 presidential election year 10
take any other course"
And by taking this course it has secured
for Cleveland the united democratic vote OF
New York, and that vote, supplemented by
the votes of the thousands of republicans
who will not support man whose own
friends acknowledge that he sold his infiu-
ence in Congress for money, will secure him
the electoral vote Of that State next No
vember, and with New York and the solid
South twelve more electoral votes will put
Cleveland in the White House.
