TIE CHOLERA.

The cholera at Mecca is increasing with
alarming rapidity. The deaths on Sunday
numbered ass, and on Monday 999.
The disease has also appeared in the
Department du Gard, and it's advent has been
promptly notified to other Governments by
the French Ministry. Several deaths have
occurred at Toulon and Cette, and an outbreak
10 reported from CarcasSonne.
The steamer Widdrington arrived at Malta
from st. Louis France last week with three
cases of cholera on board, but has now left
for Penarth. No fresh cases had occurred.
just as the steamer Myrtle Branch arrived
in the Tyne on Sunday from Nancy, a fireman
named Owen died from Asiatic cholera. hi
body was buried on Monday, and the vessel
was thoroughly disinfected. The rest Of the
crew were reported to be in good health.
Surgeon-G General Wyman, in charge of the
United States quarantine service, states that
this country has an even chance of escaping
the cholera altogether this year. Should it
arrive, however, it certainly wouldnot become
epidemic. His service is taking every pre-
caution to perfect the quarantine arrange
ments.
DIR. Haffkine has inoculated over 200
persons at Simla fol- cholera, including medi-
cal men. high officials, and ladies. 1nooula-
ton under his system is being carried on at
Agra, Delhi, and Lucknow, and several
native States have taken it up. In one
British regiment over 400 men have been
inoculated. DIR. Hafkine will probably be

I'VE occupied the Islands of Rong and

1t was believed on Monday that a second
and immense Panama scandal was about to
burst on France. NJ. Deroulede and NJ. Mil
Ievove declared in the Chamber that they
we're in p lssession of documents, which they
would produce, showing M. Cl9menceau to
have been guilty of "hi9h treason" for money,
and for a moment the Chamber half believed
them There was a furious scene, IN which
Nj. Clemenceau gave his opponents the lie
direct. and threatened challenges; while they
declared him too infamous to fight with, but
it was not noted that the Chamber seemed to
be hostile to the accused. Next day ths
Cocards asserted that it possessed the docu-
ments, and that they had been stolen from the
English Embassy. On Thursday, however,
the formal accusation was made, and was at
once seen to be false. NJ. Clemenceau, 1t was
said. had sold himself to England for 100000,
the consideration being support in Egypt, and
the proofs we're letters from Sir Thomas
Lister, of the English Foreign Office, p ,lpably
forgeries on the face of them. The Chamber,
therefore, after a wild scene, i'll which the
accusers were belaboured with abuse, acquit-
ted NJ. Glen qnceau by a vote of 382 10 4, and
the accusers designed their seats. We have
discussed the affair elsewhere, and need only
add here that Nm. Deroulede and Millevoye

Mr.. Gladstone must be longing for a Disco
luton. His Cabinet, as is evident from the
proceedings reported below, though itself
fairly moderate, except about Home-rule, is
feeling day by day the weakness of its milo i
", which leaves it exposed to pressure on
the one hand from the Irish. and on the
other from the frantic section of the Radicals.
The former will not bear even verbal
alterations in their compact with the Minis
try, while the latter are crazy TO get some
Radical measures passed this Session, lest at
a Dissolution they should be oSerthrown.
Mr.. Gladstone has therefore on the one HAND to
argue f%srcely against amendments which he
afterwards accepts, and on the other to agree
to schemes for suppressing debate which he
regards with doubt or disapprovaI. lie must
be signing for free hand, which he can of
course onlt obtain by asking a larger
majority from the country. ~ may MOI

tive, it should be remembered, rests mainly
with the Premier, who in such matters, az in

The cholera is not formidable in Western
Europe, but there are daily deaths from it; and
in Mecca, It's usual Asiatio headquarters, the

The deaths there have risen to a daily aver age
of about six hundred, and according to IL

from the Consulate, the mortality OH june

A good deal OF interest and some alarm

to the young Khedive. Abbas II. is much
more likely to learn in COnstantinople how
little the Sultan can do, and how much more
unpleasant 1t is to be bullied by six Embas-
sizes than to be guided by one. There is much
more to be feared from the influence Of the
exssKhedive Isnail, who will undoubtedly try
to capture his grandson, and Who may inspire
him with his own ambitious projects for
establishing au Empire over the whole valley
of the Nile, The Khedive, however, must be
rid of the pressure of Europe first, and that
is a task which it will take a lifetime, perhaps
more, to accomplish fully. Note. however, how

tioE contemplate radical change in
their method Of furnishing water
The perpetual right" is to be done
away with altogether; that Is to say,
no such privilege will be sold, neither
as now understood, will IL be required
Heretofore, the policy has been to sell
TO each farmer so called perpetual
right and in addition charge a mainte-
nance fee. The cost Of perpetual
right has generally been $40 per acre
and the maintenance charge from one
20 two dollars per acre. The con-
templated system is TO grant free the
perpetual right and charge only an an
nual rental. This is a splendid step
in the right direction and the canal
companies deserve great credit for tax
ing it. The perpetual right" business il

thing which does not and can not exist.

SILVER MEN AT WORK.

An important meeting OF men o.
national repute was held at
Washington on the 18th. At the con-
ference il was agreed, first, that the
money question is, and will continue
10 be the paramount issue till settled
rightly, and be displaced by no other.
Second--The FIRST battle is for the next
Congress. Third To achieve results
the silver men must not only stay sill
yer men after they reach Congress, but
must put silver above party, and
work necessarily TO accomplish the oh.
ject for which they were selected.
A number OF delegates favored the
organization OF new party. with the
money question as the sole issue, leav.
ing the way open for afliliation, not
only TO the Peoples party, but to the
5000, 900 who refused 10 vote Mt the
late elections, but majority believed
the course finally agreed upon to be
the better policy 10 the coming Con-
gressional elections.
The conference recommended that
the Bimetallic League urgently sug-
gest to the friends OF silver everywhere
that they support for the Fifty.fourlh
Congress only candidates who will
pledge themselves tc the following nc
ton in case OF election: That they
will enter no caucus restraining them
from voting in accordance with their
pledges, but unite with others iavorlug
free coinage at ratio OF 10 TO / issue
of paper by Government exclusively,
and oppose the issue OF bonds to buy
gold.
The conference recommended that
silver leagues everywhere be organized
aud thorough organization effected
everywhere, with view to controlling
the election OF members of Congress
and State Legislatures; also, that dur
ing the winter two silver conventions
he held, one in the South, the other
in Des MONIES, Iowa.
