about 10 shillings of English is given to
him in scrap bullion: and during the
night preceding each pay day the pay
masters ale busily engaged in weighing
out silver and making it up into neat lit
tie packages for dltributiou As soon
as he has ohtined his share the soldier
takes it to the nearest sllopkeeper or
money-changer, who, in return for IT,
hands him 800 copper cash, the aggre-
gate weight Of which IS quite a much as
he can conveniently carry. Oat Of this

arrived there by a special courier on Fri
day. The Imperial Council met on Sat
urday and decided to reply that the Gar
favored the maintenance of the Russian
demand in respect to the delimitation OF
the frontier. The Council also resolved
to inform England that Russia would
+ consent to the appointment Of special
/ mixed Commission to examine into the
/ facts in relation to the reports of Gen.
/ Komaroff and Sir Peter Lamsden, and to
decide which of the reports is correct
/ Nj. de Giers has advised that if England
refuses to accept these proposals. Baron
/ de Staal, the Russian Ambassador, be
withdrawn and all negotiations be bro
ken off Gen. Kouropatkine urges an
/ immediate advance upon Herat, and his
proposal finds many supporters. 1t is
asserted in military circles that fresh
provocation by the Afghans may still
prevent Gen. Komaroff from obeying his
orders to avoid a conflict. A telegraph
/ line is being pushed from Askabad to
Dashkepri.
LONDON. April 26.-The Council lasted
nearly four hours yesterday. It's secrets
are zealously guarded, but from certain
surface indications it appears to have
been a most unsatisfactory and inconse-
quential session. Baron de Staal, the
Russian Ambassador, had conferences
with Earl Granville both before and after
the council. and it is said that the second
! interview was more unsatisfactory to
both sides than the first. The only result
of the council that has leaked out was
decision to send a second message to
Russia, again asking her to do what she
has already refused in almost contempt
uous terms to do.
Immediately after the rising of the
cabinet a long despatch was sent from
the foreign office to st. Petersburg re-
peating the demand for military in
| quiry, on the spot, into the circumstan-
ces of Gen. Komaroff's attack of March
| 80 on the Afghans. This demand was
made when the news of the battle was
/ first received, and Russia said she must
await the report of Gen. Komarof.
When that report was received, it was
/ forwarded to England without comment,
/ thus intimating that Russia considered it
an all-sufficient answer The report be-
! ing referred to Gen. Lumsden for hisveT-
sion of the story, it was contradicted
point blank andcrcumstantially on every
vital point Gen. Lumsden's counter re-
port was promptly transmitted to Russia,
with a request for an explanation of
| the discrepancies, and Russia airily re-
/ piled last Wednesday that che declined
/ further discussion of the Penjdeh Incl
dent This being the state-of the con-
troversy, it is difficult to see what
prompts the repetition of doubly de-
MED demand, unless it be desire to
find an excuse for postponing the dread
ed ultimatum. tits to be hoped the gov
ernment viii be prepared to make a de-
/ finite statement when the vote of credit
comes up for discussion tomorrow.

I Old Billy B. was piOus man,
And heaven was his goal;
For, being a very saving man,
OF course, he'd saved his soul,

And he took ten pews, as well became

Virginia and Malone.

n. Y. Times.
1t is reported, and is probably true,
that Senator Malone will carry the cou-
pom decision into Virginia state politics,
and stand for governor on platform of
resistance to the Supreme Court. His
former opponents, the democrats, are ey-
identity alarmed by the possibility that
he will succeed. Perhaps he may. A
promise to prevent the increased taxa
tion that would be required to meet ex-
penses if the coupons are to be received
for taxes would go long way with the
ignorant and unthinking. But the coun-
try has no reason to regret that the issue
is to be thus made clear and fought out.
Mr.. Mahone has had some experience in
resisting the federal government before,
and he is known to have shown great
courage and ability in the work. It
failed however, and left Virginia crush
ed in poverty, from which the state has
slowly and painfully risen. 1t will fail
again, even more hopelessly, and its only
possible result would be to throw the
state relatively further behind its sister
states than it was in 1860 Virginia has
felt the curse of Mahoneism, and felt if

DIR. Ferran's method of incubation
against cholera does not, as Il rule,
prevent the disease from taking hold,
but it greatly lessons the danger of
death after an attack of it. Out of
1870 deaths in Alcira, l2O were per-
sons who had not been inoculatcd, Z
persons once inoculated. and only 8
persons twice subjected to the pro-
cess. 1t is admitted that the modi-
fed poison docs not long remain in
the system, aud that reinoculation is
necessary every twenty or thirty days
during the prevalence of an epidemic.
The statistics thus far encourage the
hope that this epidemic Of NJ. Louis

the following obituary of a former
well known citizen of this county-a
brother of Isaac Fouke, ESQ.,, of this
