Taz St. John Telegraph says one of the post miraculous eseapes from a very serious geident in the history of railroading in New Brunswick was that experienced by the Quebec Express on Saturday morning at Quispamsis station, on the Intercolonial Railway.

Tuexe is no foundation for the rumor cir- qilated by the St. John 7leyraph that Hon. Joseph Pope, manager of the Government savings bank at Charlottetown, and father of the late Minister of Marine and Fisheries, will be superannuated on the Ist of July, and that the position has been offered to Percy Pope, son of the Minister of Marine.

Cricker,—At arecent cricket match, in d, between Hampsbire and Surrey, the made in the inning were 229 and 650—
the largest score ever made in a first-class match. Mr. W. W. Read secured 168 runs, @nsisting of one 7, one 6, two 5's, seventeen #4, nine 3's, fourteen 2's, and singles. We should junge from this that, as yet, the game has hardly been brought to perfection here.

Sueniac has lately been quite lively with fires, murders and attempted suicides. The Telegraph reports that, ‘‘on Thursday, an elderly lady of unsound mind, made her way to the river near Mr. W. Hanington’s mill and threw herself into the water, desiring to leave this world of trouble. The mill was quickly stopped, when some of the hands rescued her, for which she did not thank them.”

A Market to be Opened.
Butter, cheese, potatoes, fish, hams, carriages, sewing machines sell wellin British Guiana and the Leeward Islands. A cor- respondent of the Toronto Globe at George- town, British Guiana says that potatoes there sell at 8 cents per pound and never bring less than 4 cenis, while the other articles named always command good prices. The St. John Telegraph says :-—
** British Guiana has a population of about 200,000, exclusive of the aborigines, and the population of the Leeward Islands is perhaps about the same. The products of Guiana and the islands are sugar, fruits, mahogany. cocoa, arrowroot, etc. Canada consumes a constantly increasing amount of these articles, which can be grown at the greatest advantage in these equatorial regions. As population finds its way into the prairie country this trade must be aug- mented until it assumes gigantic propor- tions, and there is no vaiid reasun why a large part of it should not centre at St. John, as return cargoes would be available. The market could be tested without any very great risk, and the present seems the proper time to make the venture.” —>
A heated debate occurred in the British House of Commons, on the 9th, relative to the execution of Suleiman Daoud. Mem- bers opposed to the execution, led by Sir George Campbell and Mr. Molloy, member for King’s County, urged the Government to telegraph requesting a stay of execution. Sir Henry Drammond Wolff asserted that the death of Suleiman Daoud was hurried in order to silence the charges against the Khedive. Mr. Gladstone finally declared that as Sir Edward Malet had not informed the Government there had been any in- justice done to Suleiman Daoud they had | distinctly declined to interfere in it.

Teiegraph Notes.
The explosion in Ja powder magazine at Scutari on the 10th inst, was caused by lightning. It killed 10 soldiers and 7 civi- lians, and wounded 40 soldiers and 15 civilians. A portion of the bastion fell on a bazaar which adjoined the magazine, caus- ing great destruction of property.
Late on the afternoon of the 10th, a ter- rible cylone prevailed west of Texas City. Dock Hill Place was completely destroyed by lightning. Joe Brown’s place was utter- ly ruined. Everything in its path—150 yards wide—catils, horses and fencing were picked up and carried through the air like straw. Parties on its edge describe the roar of the storm as deafening. Crops ace very much injured.
An English brig lying in the harbor at Corruna, recently, hoisted at her mainmast a Fenian flag. The flag was green with a white cross in the centre. At the same time she was flying a small English flag at the foremast. The English consul sent a messenger aboard to order the captain to lower the green flag; but the messenger mei with rough treatment on the vessel. He then summoned assistance of the Spanish coast guard, and eventually a party of armed sailors boarded the vessel and re- moved the objectionable flag. An inquiry has been instituted into the circumstances of the affair.
The wrestling tournament at St. Louis, postponed on the 8th on account of rain, was resumed on the 9th before a crowd of about 1,000 persons. The first contest be- tween Christ»l and Seachartz (Graco Roman) was won by Christol in ten minutes- The second contest was also Graco-Roman between Bixerwos and Bibby; the former won in six minutes. Conner and Whistler were the contestants of the third trial, eatch-as-catch-can; Whistler won in forty- five minutes. The fourth contest was be- tween Christol and Boxer, Graco Roman, and was won by Christol; no time is report- ed. The fifth contest was between Conner and Christol, Graco-Roman and was con- tinued for half an hour without either man’s winning a fall. It was then postpon- ed,
Mr. Gladstone’s recent statement in the Commons, injregard to the circumstances of Errington’s visits to Rome, has given great satisfaction to the Vatican. Errington is about to leave Rome for England. He will be given a private audience by the Pope before he goes. John Boyle O’- Reilly, of the Boston Pilot, received a cable from the Pilot’s Roman correspondent, in- forming him that His Holiness Pope Leo, on the 10th had publicly insulted Errington by refusing him an audience. O'Reilly is of the opinion that this action of the Pope is the outcome of further investigation of the Irish question, and it is a rebuke to Erring- ton for his misleading ste‘ements at the Vatican. O'Reilly also o asiders this the first move in strai:h'ening out the mis- apprehension and ni srepresentation of the Pope’s attitude on tue Irish question,
