BENHAM's COURTESY TO THE NAsMYTH.

Nasmyth to Admiral Benham for protec-

tain supply of water in the harbor Of
Rio de Janeiro says IF the
commander of the British feet at Rio
does not propose to protect British sub
jects following lawful vocations, it is
difficult to understand why he is there at
all"
The st. James Gazette says: Surely,
Lord RoseOerry does not acquiesce in the
doctrine that the sole right of interven-
tion belongs to the United States. That
British sailors should be compelled to
seek the protection of Admiral Benham
is humiliating in the extreme"
The Globe says: admiral Benham is
doubtless at liberty to bully the insurg-
ents as much as he pleases. But that is
quite a different thing from Offering a
most injurious insult to the British navy.
Unless the story of his putting the
Nasmyth under the protection of

DEMOCRATIC cAUCUsEs.
The House Members to Hold One as
Well as the Senators.

Washington, Feb. 23.-One hundred
and sixteen democrats have signed the
call for a House caucus to consider the
propriety of changing the rules of the
House with reference to the course that
should be pursued by the House when
members fail to vote"
The call has been circulated by Mr..
Paynter, of Kentucky The caucus will
be held after the Bland seigniorage bill
has been disposed of, so that no member
present at the caucus may be influenced
by the pending business.
MIR. Paynter declines to give any in
formation showing the sentiments of the
members who have signed the call, but it
is understood from other gentlemen who
have interested themselves in the matter,
that very considerable number Of demo-
cratic representatives will indorse any
proposition that will result in compelling
members TO answer to their names when
present during the roll calls of the House.

SEES WRITING ON THE WALL.
Duke Of Devonshir Wants the Coun-
ellis Bill Handled Very Gingerly.

ellis Bill Handled Very Gingerly.
London, Feb. 23.-The House of Lords
to-day resumed consideration of the
parish councils bill. The Duke of Devon
shire urged that before attempting to go
into the details of the measure with a
view of amending it, their lordships shall
consider the general position. He
claimed that their lordships had done
their duty in making the amendments
they thought desirable, but how far
they should insist on going in that direc-
ton must, in his Judgment be determined
more on the ground of eXpediency than
upon principle. They could not however,
leave out of account the fact that the
bill had been accepted by a large ma. .ority
of the people
SALISBURY OF DIFFERENT MIND.
Lord Salisbury thought it was possible
to interpret the canons of conduct lain
down by the Duke of Devonshire in a
manner absolutely depriVing the peers of
the power of amending any bill that
might be sent to them. Still, he did not
differ in the main from the drift of the
dukes advice. He agreed that manyof
the amendments that had been made,
though they improved the bill, did not
involve any question of principle.
He could not, however, admit
that all of the amendments
which the House of Commons had
restored to the bill should be accepted
1t was especially the duty of the House of
Lords to see that the interests of the
farmers were not sacrificed as they
would be under the provisions of the bill
as 1t passed the House of Commons. The
tribunal to which the provision for COM
pulsory purchase allotments was referred
must carefully consider another question
of vital mportance-the control of chari-
ties. These, he declared, the lords must
safeguard. [Cries of Hear, " Hear
TO MEET IN THE SCHOOL HOUSES.
The House of Lords this afternoon
agreed to permit the parish councils to
hold meetings in the parOchial school
houses. Their former refusal of such per-
mission was most severely criticised, and
it meant that in the rural districts the
saloons would have to be made centers of
political activity.
The Duke of DevOnshire leader of the
liberal unionists, moved that the county
councils be made the tribunals to decide
upon the compulsory purchase of allOt-
ments under the allotments act, with the
power of appeal to the local government
board This motion was passed.
LOCAL OPTION PROVISION.
Lord Salisbury proposed an amend
menu which WOulu give parishes OF @UU
to 800 population the choice between coun-
ell and no council. The amendment was
approved by a vote of so to 76.
Lord Salisbury chen moved that the
parish councils be allowed to elect only
one-third of the trustees of the local
charities.
The Earl of Kimberly, secretary of
state for India, ,intimated that the govern
ment would oppose this amendment.
The Duke of Devonshire spoke briefly
against Lord Salisbury's proposal, and in
favor of the government.
The archbishops of Canterbury and
York supported Lord Salisbury, and the
amendment was carried by vote of ~
to 49,
The House next agreed to drop the
amendment excluding London from the
scOpe of the bill
