DemonstratiOn.

Every Town In Italy Has u Popular
Demonstration.
ROME, March 6.-The excitement
throughout Italy, caused by the defeat
of General Baratieria, at Adowa on Sun
day last by the Abyssinians, with the
loss of from 5000 to 10000 men killed
and woundei, according to generally
credited reports shows little signs of
abatement. 1t is true, however. that
the disturbance caused by the news OF
the great disaster and the consequent
display of ind gnation against the gov
ernment has been greatly increased by
the calling out of the army reserves of
the class of 1872, which calls $4,000 ad-
ditional men into service. The great
majority Of these reservists are married
men whose families will thus be de.
prived of their chief or only support for
an indefinite period.
Prevented Troops From Leaving.
Thus at Milan and other places,
serious rioting has occurred, when the
reservists were preparing to obey
orders, and in many cases they have
been prevented by force, women and
children leading the agitation, from
leaving their towns. Railroad cars
have been demolished, |, rails torn up
and telegraph wires cut and the police
have been beaten and stoned into help
lessness. The soldiery have been at
tackled, the bayonets have been freely
used, and men and women, frenzied
with wrath, have thrown themselves
on the naked steel of the troops.
Riotous Demonstrations Everywhere.
Large numbers of arrests have been
made. the troops everywhere are either
confined to barracks or occupying the
streets, and night has been turned into
day by torchlight professions. indigna.

has resigned and the designations have
been accepted by the king.
The chambers Of deputies was crowd
ed and the galleries were packed with
excited spectators. The crowd about
Monte Gtirio, upon which the chamber
Of deputies stands, every now and then
raised cries of Down with the govern
ment," Death to Baratieri," and from
the galleries, previous to the entry of
the ministry, number Of persons were
elected by the police for utterink SIM
liar cries. Almost Immediately after
the appearance Of the premier, who
was greeted with cheering by some Of
his supporters, and by cries of derision
from his opponents, he announced that
the cabinet had resigned and that the
king had accepted its resignation.
Chee-ed the Announcement.
Tho announcement was followed by
loud cheers, which were heard by the
crowd outside, and, being understood
were taken up and echoed far and
wide. Some moments elapsed before
the cheering subsidized, and even then
the loud, excited shouts of the Leftists
continued for a time.
Crispi gazed calmly upon the shout
ing, cheering deputies as if such a DEM
onstration was quite an ordinary occur
renee, and when he was again able to
make himself heard, he added:
"The ministers will remain at their
posts until their successors are ap-
pointed.
After the adjournment Of the cham
ber, the piazza of Monte Citirio and
the adjacent streets remained filed
with excited crowds of people, until
they were dispersed by the police and
soldiers, who occupied all the ap-
proaches to the house of parliament.
Signor Crispi, after leaving the house
OF deputies, made similar statement
in the senate, which adjourned sine
die.
King Humbert has already consulted
with several statesmen regarding the
formation Of a new cabinet.

THE POSTER IN JAPAN,

Yedo Japan, May l6.--A traveller in
Japan who had penetrated to the most
remote villages thought he had
reached the limits of modern CiNili2a~
ton but on coming out OF doors the
next morning found small Japanese

clock A few miles further on he dis
covered what surprised him more a
Neritable poster displayed on a blank
wall, with an admiring crowd arounj
il. 1t seems that every tCahouse has
its series of posters, and every shop
window contains them. Crowds always
gather in Japan when new poster is
shown for the fls time, During the
recent war the interest OF the people
was greatly heightened by the poster
cartoons relating to the progress of al
fairs. The subjects of these cartoons
were Of a character to impress one that
the Japanese were entirely superior TO
their antagonists, yet in none OF them
could there be found any evidence OF
vain glory or insult,
During the war there was a good deal
of comment about the ineiliCicncy ot
the officers of the Chinese army, anG
the japanese made the most Of this.
