Leaving, My 16 —While Beresford has been expoeing the weakness of the navy, Lard eVolseley has been doing AS much for the alloy, and ineidentally expleinieg how, beide e having a weak any, England utter• ler lacks fortifications to keep back the etrong arnsiee of other countriee. Hosts of leaser lights have been making speeches and writiug artioles to add to the panic, and even the old Duke of Cambridge, hirnself the cousin of the Queen and Commander -in -Chief of the arrey, has proclaimed that things are wrong by f,egging on every conceivable oc- casion for more money to put them right. Europe remains very quiet, and there have been fewer rumors of a warlike charac- ter than for months past. The Czer, through his semi cffi i1 newspapers, haa again ex- horted erring Bulgaria to come to hie arms and be forgiven, and the invitation has again been interpreted as a hint to the friends of Russia to make things unpleasant for Prince Ferdinand. There Imam been ores or two cheerful nide into Bulgitaitt, and even some spilling of blood, but the elaellition was only temporary, Ferdinand has cut short his tour, ostensibly on account of the badness of the roads, but really owing to rumors of a plot to assasshutte him at Schumla. Chatelain, the traitorous French soldier who tried to sell to Germany and Italy the secret of the Lebel rifle, appears to take very calmly his sentence to transportation for life. He has made arrangements for his mistress, Josephine 0 rae, to accomp.any him in his disgrace ad in a letter paints a bril- liant Picture of the ideal life whioh they ore to lead in the Isle des Pins under a tropical sky. The most solid erguments whioh he used in persuading her were the: she could oblige the French Government te grant her a free passage, which appears to be a fact, and that he, asaa political miininal, will not have 1: cut; off his moustache.

" The investigations of a society formed in It:mien to abate the smoke nuisance afforded a rather startling idea of the wasteful extra- vagance of the present synkm of cornbustton. Here is a summary of a late report of the Smoke Abatement Institute: The weight of the smoke cloud over the city itt estilmated at about 50 toxis of solid carbon and 2'50 tons of hydro carbon and cathonie oxide gases. From actual teats,,the value of ooal actually wasted ahrough the obstinacy of the Cock- neys i *257,500, or 42 per cent, of the a. • i monis expended tor 004 in London, that be. ing St e' percentage of heat that eecapes up Chimney without warming anybody. This „ waste also causes a ueolees eXpenditure ef 1 £268,720 for °tilting coal, to say nothing of 0 the wear and tear of streets and of £43,000 more for carting away ashes. Altogether, about £2,500,000 ie yearly thrown away in London. Add to this L2,000,000 for injury to property from the smoke laden atmos. phere, and there is shown a total of 4,500,. 000 which London annually loses because of its failure to burn coal under proper condi. • tions. Nearly all this waste and smoke could be prevented by a general adoption ef improved methods of constructing ohimneye, &epitome, furnaces and heaters.' , . t The Irieh flag controvereey in New York has been settled, for the present by the Board of Aldermen passing an cirdinanee over the S veto of Mayor Hewitt, taking the control bf the hoisting of foreign flags out of his g hands.
