The weekly statement of the Bank of}

France shows a decrease of 1,325,000 | francs gold, and 1,360,000 francs silver,

New electric lights have recently been in troduced at the British Museum. Four Siemen’s lights have been p'aced in the! reading room, and been so adjusted as to | equalize the light over the whole room. | They will remain in operation from the Ist of September until the Ist of April.

The early Greeks and Persians used marine signals, making them not by fixgs | but by the position of their sails and by holding shields in various positions A code of flag signals was made in 1420 by} a Venetian captain, and the first English | signal eode was introduced by James IL, |

Duke ‘of York.

The opinion expressed by the foreign | officers who witnessed the recent extensive | reviews and marceuvres of the Russian | troops at St. Petersburg is, according to the Vorsische Zeituny of Berlin, that the | infantry has great power of endurance, | but is not well disciplined, and that the | cavalry, while possessing excellent horses, does not ride as well as it should. In| large bodies the troops made a fair show- ing, but in detached battalions they did poorly.

Lanctot, the Montreal lawyer who dis-| graced himself in the Circuit Court on) Friday, made a humble apology to Judge | Rainville and to the crier next day, attri- | buting his offensiveness to being intoxicated at the time. The court censured the de- | linquent severely, but inflicted neither fine | nor imprisonment. This has occasioned cunsiderable surprise, but the council of the | bar is expected to show its condemnation | of the outrageous conduct of this unworthy | member of the*profession. |

Telegraphic despatches report that the | British troops will not be withdrawn from | Egypt for the present. There are at least) three reasons for this Jecision. It is desir- | able to occupy the coantry until the deci- | sion of the powers be given in conference, | if snch a course shouid be adopted. It is desirable, in view of he fact that» fanati- | cism is lying dormant ready to burst out! along. the whole of Northern Africa. <A; still further reason 1s that grave doubts are entertained of Twefik Pasha’s proving honest in his cv-operation with England.

Immediately prior to the Egyptian trouble Italy secured possession of a tract of| land on the Bay of Assab, England de- | clining to interfere in the negotiations with | the Khedive. It thus gained a foothold on the shores of the Red Sea, north of the! Strait of Bab-el-Mandeb. A recent census of the colony showed that it numbered 1,183 inhabitants, and news now comes that eight hundred more emigrants are on the way thither. Even this small matter may have same influence in the final diplo- Matic settlement of the Egyptian trouble, as Italy has taken a prominent part in the conference.

China leads civilized countries in finding a place for its ants. Prof. Riley, of the Agricultural Bureav, Washington, has re- ceived from Han Chow an account of a euriots use made of ants in that part of China. It seems that in many of the Province of Canton, the Saat teece are injured by certain worms, and to rid them- selves of these pests, the inhabitants import ants from the neighboring hills. The hill people throughout the summer and winter finds the nests of two species of ants, red and yellow, suspended from the branches of various trees. The trees are colonized by placing the ants on their upper branches, | and bamboo rods are stretched between | the different trees, so as to give the ants’ easy access to the whole orchard. This remedy has been in constant use at least since 1640, and probably dates from a rauch earlier period.

The Duke of Bucclench received a most | enthusiastic welcome when he _ visited | Hawick recently to open the new water- works, the ¢fection of which has been greatly facilitated by his liberality. Hawiek | is one of the most radical towns in Seot- | land, and for fifty years the Duke has been the head of the Scotch Tories; but during that period he has won the hearty esteem of all parties by his generosity and kind- ness to his tenantry and to the poorer classes, and by his munificence in support- ing all public works. The Duke has throughout his life been ‘‘a good neigh- bor,” in the widest sense of the term, and political considerations have never inter- | fered wita the liberal administration of his | vast estates. His career would have satis. | fied even Sir Walter Scott who hada very high conception of noblesse oblige for the Dukes of Buccleuch. .

\

Antonio Batistelli, who has been for | many years the terror of the Monte! Ronoso and the Monte d'Oro, in Corsica, | has been, at last, kilied. For some time Batistelli belonged to the class called by | the Corsicans ‘‘ honest bandits ”—that is} to say, he had killed a foeman in a quar- | rel and had been obliged to fly from jus- tice, living in the mountains upon what he | could get from sympathetic friends, and | even by levying toll upon sympathetic foes. ,

tof late he had lost his title to be con.| sidered an honest brigand by robbing the inoffensive peasants of the district. So it b 9 resolved that he must be put to death.

MN opportunity occured on the 29th of | August, when Batistelli robbed a ductor of | his watch at the village of Vivario and was | followed to a tavern, where he went to| meet a fellow brigand named Cerati. The gendarmes, headed by a zonave, who had | been wounded at Reichshofen, surrounded | the taverm, but not in time to prevent | Cerati making) his escape to the mountains.

i i

Batist i, however, stood his ground and} Gred se@Venal shots at the gendarmes, bet vome Of thew took effect and he was shot

by the Zouave, who, it is feared, wil) in turn falla victim to the vengeance af the deceased brigand’s friends.
