House to give full effect to the acquittal
of Parnell on all the serious charges, he
would have the members recollect the
infamy of the accusations. They were
not made at random. They were made
with the solemn assurance that they had
been subjected to the most careful scru-
tinv. Let not the members hesitate to
give what acknowledgment of regret
thew could to a man who had suffered an
enormous wrong. [Cheers.
Gladstone severely criticised many
other portions of the judges report. 1t
expressed, he said, number Of opinions
upon the main issues in no sense judicial.
Their statement that the land legislation
of 1881 had no effect as regards the
diminishing of crime is entirely untrue.
As to the charges of relieving persons
supposed to be engaged in crimes, he
said they were mere trumpery. Such
charges had never been made in
state indictment. The Tories
rode into power on Parnell's shoulders
now they forsake him and seek by vote
of the House TO condemn his acts and
policy, the whole benefit of which they
took then and have held ever since. The
commission, he said, had taken q great
mass of facts, and then said "We cam
not look to the right nor to the left; we
can look neither backward nor forward
all We have to do is to return q verdict on
dry facts
Sir Michael Hicks Beach said that
while there might be nothing proved in
the charges to justify indictment for
treason, he was surprised that gentlemen
who had been and might again be min
listers excuse and pslliate such charges.
He cited Psrnell as authority againet
the assertion that the Conservatives,
before coming into office, had pledged
themselves not to renew the Coercion
act, and called upon Sir William Vernon
Harcourt to apologize for that calumny.
Harcourt rose and said he had never
heard such statement. Then declar'
ing that he would not stay to be abused,
he left the House.
Sir Michael, continuing, said the
charges on which the Parnellites had
been acquitted were possibly more i'm
portant to themselves and their persona
honor, but the charges on which they
had been proved guilty were more i'm
portant to the community, because they
related to practices, the revival of whict
would be fatal to the liberty and prosper
ity of the country.

HACKED WITH A HATCHET
A Terrible Quitting Affray Near
E6Cnn adn.

SAN DIEGO, CAL, March 3 News of
bloody cutting sffray was received here
late this afternoon. Sunday evening
three miles from Escondido two Mexi-
cans, Antonio Duran and Jose Alton,
who had been in town all day, started to
San Pasquale, and when about three
miles from town, began to
quarrel as to which was
the best driver. Duran became enraged
and taking hatchet began to chop his
companion to pieces. The first blow al
most cut off Atoms left arm, and the
next brought him to the wagon floor,
with terrible cash, and in all proba-
bility fatal wound in the back of his
head. The murderer hurriedly un-
hitched his horses, and taking the har-
ness off one, rode away before men
came up and learned of the fearful crime.
The murderer was arrested and placed
in Jail. The wounded man is still alive,
but this evening was considered in a
critical condition. His arm is hanging
to the shoulder only by small piece Of
flesh. His head and shoulders are
badly lacerated.

IT WILL necessitste the raising by taxa
ton of $3.50, 900 each year more than we
raise now if all the sewer propositions
before this city are carried at the elec-
tions ordered. The amount required
now to carry on our city government is
$400, 900 yearly, and the failure to bring
the assessment roll up to $40, ,O00, 600 last
year, so as to realize this sum for
the current expenses of the pres
ent year, has placed the finances
of our city in a state of distressing strin-
.gency. If all the bonds are favorably
voted upon our city taxes will necessar-
lily be increased nearly one-third to meet
the interest and sinking fund. The tax
rate, when we consider the high valua-
tions of the assessments, is now up to q
very high notch, but if it should
be increased one-third the pres
ent rate, it will come with ter
rible weight upon our property
holders, the great mass of whom are only
possessed of their hemesteads. Is it
wise to place 30 great burthen upon our
people just nowf The interna! sewer
system is needed. We can stand that
The storm drain system and the outfall
sewer, however, are not needed now, if
they ever shall be, and the bonds for
these should be voted down. Let us 60
slow. The proposed system of storm
drains, we are sure, will not carry off
the food waters of our hills, and will
prove dead failure when such excsp-
tional cataclysms as we had last winter
occur. These rare downfalls of rain
must be carried off on the eur-
face. They would burst any under
ground drain that could be built.
As to the outfall sewer to Ballona, that
is mere waste of money. The sewage
can be used in the direction of the Los
Angeles river ON the porous lands below
the city during summer, and the over
dow can be let into the river during the
rain months. That is done now and has |
been done for years without complaint. |
Why spend thrse-quarters of q million |
lollars to take the sewage to the sea at
Ballona when it is needed to enrich the
poor lands adjacent to our city2

A STORY is told of poor man who
once entered the counting-room Of the
original John Jacob A stor in the later
days of that millionaire, and seeing the
masses of bonds, mortgages, rent rolls
and other signs of wealth about him, ex-
pressed some envy Of the riches of the
old Knickerbocker. Astor looked at him
for moment, and then said: ''It would
do you but little good to take my place.
work very hard to take care of my
property and all get out Of it all, and in
return for all my toll is board and cloth
ing" The other day the grandson Of
this accumulator of millions died at the
age of 58, worn out with the care of the
vast fortune created by the founder of
the family, who came to New York with
all his earthly possessions invested in
four flutes which he had bought in
Europe to sell in America. The man
that died prematurely the other day
spent his life in toiling over these rent
rolls and other accounts, and all for his
"board and Clothes" His board may
have been sumptuous and his clothes
chosen after the advice of old Polonius
erich, but not gaudy." He moreover
took one trip to Europe in
the latter years of his life. But
after making due allowances for all
the pleasure derived by the father and
grandson out of this fortune, it is ques-
tion whether the best of "board and
clothes" compensates for the drudgery
of looking after SO much property.
Would it not be more the part of wise
man to have turned all this over to some
competent and trusted clerk, while the
possessor of so much wealth should take
the world easy and enjoy his miliions2

FIGHTING IN AFRICA.

A report has been received by the Gov
ernment from the Governor of Senegal,
stating that 800 of the King of Dahomey's
troops attacked French force under
Commandant Terrillor at Zebo. After q
severe fight the French repulsed the na-
tives, killing and wcunding 400. II is
reported that the Government intends to
annex the Kingdom of Dahomey to the
French possessions in Africa, and that q
large expedition will be sent to the West
Coast. The expedition, it is said, will
be under orders to act promptly upon it's
arrival, in order to avert the putting to
death of many eaptives on the occasion
of the anniversary OF the Kings access
sion to the throne, it being the custom in
Dahomey to sacrifice large number of
prisoners and Dahomeyans at all state

PARIS, March 3.-The Chamber OF

there was discord in the Cabinet. He
defended the course of the ministry in
consenting to teke part in the Berlin

question the patriotism OF the Cabinet in
connection with the matter. A vote OF
confidence in the Government was taken,

adverse to the Government in view of the
fact that 120 deputies abstained from
