Socialist Leibuecht's Address TO the
Meeting at Merseilles.
MARsEILLEs, Sept. 25.-At @ meeting Of
the workinEmen's congress to-day. Herr
Leibnecht, representing the socialists Of
Germany, delivered an address, in which be
said: For socialists the question of nation
alism does not exist. We know but
two nations, the nation in possess
sion and the nation of proletar-
ians. formed OF the workingmen of all
countries. Between Frenchmen and Ger
mans there is a broad river of blood, for
the flowing of which we are innocent and
our enemies are responsible. But it does
not form frontier OF hatred between
socialists. We protested against the frati-
cidal war Of 1870.
A GREAT ARMY.
"The socialists constitute a great army, Of
which the workingmen of France, Germany
and elsewhere form the different army
corps. We haye beaten Bismarck after
struggle lasting twenty-five years, and we
are ready to shed our last drop Of blood for
socialism"
Herr Liebnecht concluded his stirring adj
dress by shouting: "Long live the interna-
tional revolutionary democracy The
utterances OF Herr LiebnechE were greeted
with enthuslastio applause.
NJ. Ferroule. member Of the Chamber Of
Deputies. who is one Of the prominent dele
gates TO the congress- warmly thanked Herr

That deep respect for the enrolling par.
ticle de " which is characteristic If 80 many
Frenchmen. has by no mi"ans died ont under
the Republican regime. Some, like NJ. Henri
Rochefort-Who has an ancestral claim to
it-dlscard the little proposition but Others.
who are in the majority, cling to it with com
mendable tenacity. There are, also those who
assume it when they 'get on" in the world.
and among these must be classed a lucky
mortal Of Montargis who some time since won
$4,000, OF 500,uplf. in the Nice Lottery.
This person has been interviewed" out Of
sheer curiosity, and as biz p~rize-winners are
rarely heard of IN France after they have had
their ephemeral notoriety, the particulars
cleaned about the "Montargis man" are of
considerable inter est. When Fortune smiled
on the now prosperous provincial he AYas a
humble workman in a foundry, with a large
family, and earning very littl. over Gl week
ly. On drawing the fortunate number he
was supplied with funds to go TO Nice. where
he received a cheque on the Credit Foncier
for the sum to which h. was entitled. He
obtained the money in Paris, but before leay-
ing the Riviera he was beset by the usual
c~ontingents of gamblers who have infallible
systems for breaking the bank at Monte
Carlo. To none OF the sharks did he
h~earken, and after receiving his prize he
purchased an annuity of 600. and with the
remainder of his coin invested in railway
shares and Credit Foncier Bonds. These
investments have enabled him to buy some
land near Montargis, on whi:h an elegant
Gothic villa is now being built for himself
and his family. On one of the foundation
stones he has fixed a tablet setting forth Ills
name and that of his builder, with the date
of his lucky draw in the lottery. Next year
the Montargis chatelain intends to use the
ode" and to assume another name in con-
junction with his own, so that his descen-
dants may hereafter reap the benefit OF his
rapid rise into prosperity.

There is something strangely ironic in
the following telegram from Raugoon, which
appeared III the Times OF Monday "a
crowded and enthusiastic meeting of infu.
entiaf M0hammedAns has been held here to
consider the adoption of measures for pro-
noting the Molammeddn religion in Eng.
land. A committee was appointed to raise
funds in support Of u Mohammedan In>ti-
tute in Liverpool, ana large subscriptions
were promised" We have repeatedly
pointed out the certainty that the ideas of
Asia would before long exercise "a visible
influence i'll England but we certainly did
not expect to see Mohammedans subscrib-
Ing for a missionary effort to CONVERT our
countrymen. They are not likely to have
much success, the great:dogma of Mobamms-

oprosed to the thought of the West as

From the Sp sctator Feb. 49,

The Session was opened on Tuesday by Com
mission, and the Queens Message wac unusu-
ally short. Her Majesty alludes in pathe-
tic terms to "the terrible sorrow which has
afflicted" her and the solace she has obtained
from touching assurances of deep sympathy
from all GLASSES and conditions, and all parts
of her Empire, and lamentS the death of her
'loyal ally, the Khedive; but the rest Of the
Message is Of the drie>t kind. There is a
promise of Bills for applying t Ireland the
general principles affecting local government
which have already ben applied in Great
Britain for Increasing the number Of small
holdings Of land; for extending assisted edu-
cation to Ireland; for altering the procedu' Z
on Private Bills for Scotland and Ireland; for
improving the Legislative Councils in India;
and for relieving elementary schools in Eng
land from the pressure of local rates. For
the rest, proposals for improving the disci-
pine of the Established Church III regard to
moral offences; for enabling accused to be ex-
ahmed on their trial; for revising the existing
agreements between the Government and the
Bank of England and for amending the
law with respect to the liability of employ
erS Tor injuries incurred In their employment,
will also be commended to your attention
There is plenty of controversial matter in tbs
programme, but the only great measure
affecting the fate Of parties is the Local
Government Bill for Ireland.
The influenza has nearly gone. In the
week ending Saturday last, the deaths in Lon
don from that cause were only 3l4. as az ainst
$50 and SOC in the two previous weeks; and
q still greater falling of was apparent in the
deaths from diseases of tn respiratory organs.
These were only 76l, but had been in the two
previous weeks l,192 and 1865 The total
deaths i'll the Metropolis were $500 and the
total births 2,808. That is, for the first time
for several weeks, tie births havo exceeded
the deaths. The deathrate i'll London VAS
equal to an annual death rate of 306
per thousand as against one OF 40 in the week
before, and IS in the week before that. The
rest Of the great towns shows Improvement.
The Brighton rate is down to 237 the Brad
ford rate to 1873. Norwich, however, has q
rate of 80. III MI probability, this weeks
returns will show that in London the epidemic
has ceased to claim new v%ictilns, and that the
sick are rapidly recovering. That is certainly
the impression Of the West End chemists, who
report that after having been pressed beyond
endu rance to supply influenza medicines,
there came at the beginning Of the week a
sudden lull in the dem and, and that now hard
ly a bottle of the specifics or reputed speci-
has, is asked for. The suddenneSs IF its dis
appearance, when it does 70, is certainly not
the least curious Of the phenomena connected
with the Influenza.

There seems grave reason to fear that Mr.
Tate's splendidly genei Gus offer Of his collcc-
ton of modern pictures to form the nucleus Of
an English Luxembourg, and OF ESQ 600 to
to build a gallery to house them, over winch
the Treasury has been negotiating for about
a year will come to nothing. Mr.. Tate's offer
was conditional on 4 proper site for the gal
lery being provided by the Government. One
hid at last been found at South Kensington
which he considered suitable, and which the
Government who originally chose it, were
quite willing to give. At the last moment,
however, the men of science interviewed,
and declared that the reversion OF the pFopos-
cd site belonged to them, aid that it must not
be given up to art. Not uunaturally, MIR. Tate
refuses to give up the site which was offer
ed to him, and to which there is no alterna-
tive that he considers possible; and he has
informed the Government that unless they
now close with his ofer, he must withdraw it.
The question, then, is: Are the scientific au-
thorities to be allowed to prevent-what all
artists agrees IN declaring a serious want in
England-the creation Of a gallery where the
modern English school can be seen and stu-
died? We trust that the country will sup-
port Mt. Goschen in accepting Mr.. Tate's
offer. It IL monstrous that a man who makes
an offer like Mr.. Tate's should be treated as if
he were acriminal. with burglarioas designs
on the national property.

A new star has suddenly appeared in the
constellation Auriga, in the Milky way.
The star differs somewhat in aspect from
the other stars in the field, "being slightly
fuzzy. and it's light not 80 piercing" Whe-
Their this newcomer of the universe has
only sailed into the astronomers ken for a
time, aud will be visible only while travers-
ing that portion of its path in space which
is open to view from the earth, or whether
it has come to stop, is not known. The new
stars appearance is, however, a vivid re-
miuder of the terrific possibilities of space,
it is conceivable that some day q new

A FEARFUL state of destitution and starva-
ton among the negro colonists scattered
through the Black Jack country around
Kingfsher Kan, is reported. 1t is said
that there are between 500 and 800 families
with starvation staring them in the face.
A CLoUDBURsT occurred at Independence

be very heavy.
FIRE destroyed the freight house of Phil
adelphia & Reading at Philadelphia. The
building was three stories, about 130 feet
breadth and about 80 feet deep. Its three
stories were filled with freight and upon the
surface floor number of freight cars full OF
goods were standing. The fire spread rapid
ly and despite the efforts of the firemen the
whole building was in flames. By a clock
the structure was entirely destroyed. The
loss will be very heavy.
