The PremIer's Statement Concerning the
Venezuelan Dispute Ready.
LONDON, Nov. 25.-The marquis Of
Salisbury, it is understood, has COM
pleted his reply to Secretary Olney's
note regarding Venezuela. 1t is ex-
pected that the answer will be imme
diately delivered to the United States
ambassador, Mr.. Thomas T. Bayard.
Nothing is known at the colonial Of
fee here of the alleged statements Of
the administrator of British Guiana
that the imperial government is pre-
pared to assert the rights of arms.
News reached here several days ago
that the legislature of that colony had
acquiesced to the proposal of the Sec
rotary of state for the colonies, Mr..
Chamberlain, to increase the colonial
force by two inspectors and another
Maxim gun, the legislature also motif
flying the government that it is pre-
pared to vote anything the colonial
secretary considered necessary for the
defense of the colony. There has been
no change in the boundary dispute
and the government, it is added will
not tolerate Venezuelan aggression
beyond the Schomberg line.

Gov. Morrill, Declines to Give Up Abductor
Chisholm to Missouri.
TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. 90. Gov. Nor
rill has refused the requisition from
the governor of Missouri for Fred
Chisholm, the negro charged with
having abducted a young white girl
in Benton county, Mo. The refusal
was based on the irregularity Of
the papers, there being nothing
to show that the person before
whom the original complaint was
filed was magistrate or that
the signature attached was that of the
committing officer. There was some
excitement among the negroes who
had come from Lawrence to prevent
Chisholm extradition, it being claimed
that it was the purpose of the people
of Benton county to lynch him.

WASHINGTON, Nov &c. - Secretary
Hoke Smith, in his annual report, will
recommend that the Carey law, grant
ing /, 900, 600 acres of arid lands to each
state, in which such lands are situ-
ated, be so amended that the grants be
made 10 the states outright, and
the states be made responsible
for the irrigation of the lands.
Under the law as It now stands
it would be many years be-
fore the states would receive the bene-
fit Of the grant, aud Secretary Smith
believes the states can better carry out
the intention of congress If they get
control Of the entire grant at once, in
stead Of waiting until water Is secured
for the lands.

This trait of neglecting the exactitudes
was strongly manifested from Napoleon's
childhood. He went as far as the prac-

having seized thus much, he cared for
nothing else. He desired correctness in
others, for that was useful to him; but
as for himself. he wanted only aggregate
results and knowledge of their prac-

the capital Of the brave Aeduans, whom
caesar overcame in the first year of the
Gallic war. The place. from being a Ro-
man oppidum, became barbarian again.
The Vandals had it; then the Burgundians;
fben the Huns; then the Franks; then the
saracens; then the Normans; and once,
the English. OF these vicissitudes, the
monumental traces remained when Ma
poleon, in his tenth year, arrived at the
gates. He was put under charge of the
Abbe Chardon. nephew of the Gen. Mar
boeuf. The latter devoted himself to the
interests Of the Buonaparte family, and
paid part of the expenses.
The plan Of Carlo Buonaparte and his
friend. the general, was to give to both
the boys a military education. 1t was
deemed expedient that they should first
learn French in the school of the Able, at
Autun. To this work they were put, on
their arrival: and in about three months
they were recl0oned sufficiently advanced

some military establishment.
Meanwhile the father and Marboeuf had
gone 70 Versailles. and were assiduous in
their efforts to get the boys established
as pensioners. The solicitation was that
the young fellows should be educated at
the expense of the state. Marboeuf invent
ed a fiction, flecked with fact, about the
nobility of his wards; and the petition was
granted finally as to Napoleon. But Joseph
