VARIOUS ITEMS OF INTEREST FROM
THE OLD WORLD.

General BouIander's Popularity I'm France.
Mr.. Beecher Delivers His First Lecture
at Exeter Hall, in London, to an I'm
mense Audience-The Cabinet
LONDON, July 21-Gen. Boulange'r grow
prominence in France elicits that he was
formerly an avowed royalist, but upon the
Comte de Chambord's refusal to accept the
tricolor crown Of France, he renounced his
relations to the royalst party, and frankly
declared his intention to support the repub-
lie. This story which has been widely circu-
lated within the last few days, very much
disturbs the generals colleagues in the min
istry, who think it indicates his pro bable
purpose of making himself now master of
the situation.
Mr.. Beecher delivered the first of his series
Of lectures at Exeter hall before an immense
audience. Mr.. Benjamin Scott Chamber
lain, of the city of London, presided, and in
introducing the lecturer, referred to the fact
that it was he who presided on the occasion Of
Mr. Beecher's lecture on the same platform
in 1863, when he discoursed upon questions
evolved upon by the American civil war in
behalf of the north The audience was very
enthusiastic, and frequently drowned the
voice of the speaker with applause. Only
once was there a manifestation of dissent
from the lecturers remarks, and that was
when he asserted that in a dull, watery
framed man, would always be found Con-
servative. The platform was crowded,
chiefly with parsons and women.
The concentration of German troops to-
ward the frontiers continues but Berlin cor
respondence bids us to believe that Germany
Is more bent on preventing an alliance of
France and Russia than upon bringing about
war between herself and France at present.
The premature exultation of a portion of
the British press over the new extradition
treaty as promising the cooperation of Amer
lea against the dynamite section of the Ma
tionalists, invites attention here to the
curious fact that the draft of the treaty was
signed almost Immediately after the defeat in
parliament of Mr.. Gladstone.

BALTIMORE, July 2l-The case of the
American if'l Telephone company VS.. the

States is testing the validity of the patents

nary injunction, restraining the defendants

possession until the further order of the
court Later the court ordered that the de-
PENDANTS could use the instruments now in
