Something Rotten in the State of Denmark.

To the Editor of the Examaner.

Sir,—Comparatively correct figures of the late election were received by some of the Island papers, but were not correctly reported, ¢. g., the Daily Patriot of the 18th inet., in its characteristic magnaniim- ity, instead of giving Clow one hundred and thirty seven votes and McDonald three at Sentner’s, omits the one hundred and gives only the thirty-seven !| This may (/) have been a_ typographical error, and although I do not wish to be uncharitable, I cannot help thinking the one hundred was designedly retained by the editor or the devil,

In a recent issue of the New Era it is

is elected, it was chiefly owing to ledger influence and the assistance of the Hon. more contemptible slander could not be circulated by any

It is true that Mr. Prowse ren- dered Mr. Clow some assistance. Why not? Had he not aright, if he chose, to do to? Look at the array of political satellites (including the two R.’s) who as- sisted Mr. McDonald.

But, Sir, any person acquainted with the manner in which Mr. Clow conducted his canvas knows that the statements to which these papers have given publicity are un- mitiyated falsehoods, and are uttered with- out the slightest foundation.

In the New Era of the 25th inst., we see another reason (although to say reason is & gross pevertion of the word) why Mr. Me- Donald was notelected. His representative did not attend at Sentner’s. Let not Mr. McDonald lay this flattering unction to his soul. The reasons why he was not elected are, first, that although popular he is not so much so as Mr. Clow, and secondly, be- cause this district is in favor of the abolition This is clear from the fact that at the last election the people elected an avowed abolitionist,

CURRENT NEWS NOTES.

Great distress prevails in the flooded dis- tricts along the Rhine, especially at Cologne, and Bonn. In the latter town nearly five hundred houses are submerged,

A natural curiosity recently discovered in the township of Mara is a small lake about 200 feet long and 100 feet wide, which has no apparent feeder or outlet. During the late dry spell the water remain- ed at itsusual level when all the wells in the neighbourhood were dry.

In the reign of one of the early English kings, absenteeism was prohibited, the de- cree being due to the tendency of nobles to reside in France. OConnell alluded to this when advocating an Act restricting absenteeism, by fine, in Ireland. In 1736 the States of Bohemia presented a me- morial to the Austrian Emperor to the effect that ‘‘ the too earnest desire of the nobility and gentry of Bohemia to travel in France had degenerated into an abuse which is no longer to be tolerated ;” and they proceed to beg that he will not per- mit them to go abroad without (as in Rus- sia to this day) express leave. The Emperor's reply was that *‘ he agrees with pleasure,” &c.

The British North Borneo Company are stated by the local journals to be circulat- ing iargely in China and the island of the Eastern Archipelago an invitation to Chi- nese capitalists, peasants, labourers and artisans, to take up their abode in the com- pany’s territory, promising ‘‘treatment of the most liberal kind, and opportunity for repatriation.” ‘‘ ln a word (concludes the address), men of China, here is a large tract of country within three days’ easy steam of your own land—a_ space which the company hope soon to see bridged over by a direct line of steamers. It possesses splendid harbours, fine rivers, a seacoast of above 500 miles in length, a favourable rainfa)], and millions of acres of virgin soil. Will you not come forward and take ad- vantage of the opportunity ?”

Russia and Austria, notwithstanding pro- fessions of peace and friendship, are watch- ing each other’s movements narrowly in the Balkan peninsule. Russia has never for- given Austria for objecting to the treaty of San Stefano and for having obtained for herself the not very enviable wardship of Bosnia and Herzegovina. But it isin the

Thomas Annear, who has since, however, turned traitor, betrayed the confidence and trust of his countrymen, a veritable political | Judas Iscariot who sold the interests of his country. For what? Pieces of silver, and who, may it be said, in passing, laboured strenuously to defeat the man to whom he is deeply indebted and whose influence greatly assisted in procuring for him the seat which he so unworthily occupies to- day.

But leaving the reasons why Mr. Mc-} Donald was not elected, which of course

(say our opponents) are legion, we will give a reason, not why Mr. Clow) was not defeated, and Mr. Me-,

Donald elected, but why the majority for Mr Clow is not two hundred and fifteen instead of only fifteen as declared. | Had the canvas been as honourably con- ducted by the friends of Mr.eMcDonald as | by Mr. Clow and his friends; had the Protestant portions of the district not been | so frightened with the cry, ‘‘ Catholic Ascendancy !” and assured that if the Council were abolished, our splendid school system would be annihilated, the destinies

Slav Kingdoms and principalities and es- pecially in Servia that the Russian and the Austrian are at enmity as rivals for the affections of prince and people. King Milan, who obtained his promotion chiefly through Austria’s friendship, is: said to be much perplexed of late by the conflicting appeals of the two factions in his own King- dom. He does not know whether it would be most to his advantage to cast in his lot entirely with Austria and procure from the Vienna Government a positive assurance of support, or to espouse the cause of the Russophiles which form the majority of his subjects. The same rivalries and jealousies prevail in all the other Balkan States and seem to presage, as they did before, the coming of a storm of war. To Russia, in view of the Austro-German alliance, strengthened by the adhesion of Italy, the goodwill of those smaller states is by no means unimportant.

The natives prefer rice, which can easily be supplied from Southern India and China at so cheap arate as to enable nearly all the wheat grown to be exported. Of course, as a great quantity of British goods are going to India, the freight rates on the wheat are low.

Baker Pacha has been summarily deposed by direction of Lord Dufferin, from his place as commander-in-chief of the Egyptian army. He is relegated to the charge of the police and his place is to be filled by an English officer, with an English staff. In separating Egypt from Turkey it was not thought wise to have the Egyptian army in the hands of a confident of the Sultan. Lord Dufferin is really British resident at the head of an arbitrary protectorate. The Khedive has as much todo with the Government of Egypt as a native Prince in the Punjaub has with the Government cf India and the condition of affairs, as it stands, is, as the Pall Mall Gazette admits, not easily to be distinguished from annex- ation. ‘What position this result will force

every distinguished man ofhis time. Of

these a great number are still ‘living, and their consent is required for the publica- tion of letters writea by themtohim. For those who are dead, somebody else’s dis- cretion must be invoked. However, the fact is, we are glad to say, that the report of the suppression of the bock has no foundation at all. The whole mass of material is in the hands of Sir George Dasent, Mr. Delane’s brother-in-law, and long his colleague in one capacity or an- other on the Times. Mr. Delane himself was a copious letter writer—his letters to Sir George Dasent alone number 4,000— not all to be published, of course.

To Judge from the tone of newspapers, England aud Germany are drawing closer and closer, while Franceand England are The Berlin Post, a semi-

tention, no matter how much other nations i might desire her to do so, to interfere with |England’s operations in Egypt, and that ‘Evgland wiil not quarrel with Germany to gratify France. The French papers, on the other hand, are, with few exceptions, almost openly hostile to England. Eng- land has pursued a perfidious policy iu Egypt. Se has encouraged the Khedive to abv lish the joint ec ntrol, and she has substituted th. refure a sub-control of her own. Then, again, England has sent a gunboat to Madegiscar, and Sir Chales Dilke has just i.formed the House that there is quite a fleet in the vicinity which would be used in case of need. Of course Evgland’s sole design is to burk France's operations in Madagascar. Again Sir Charles Dilke has informed the House that England wishes to see the Congo free and unobstructed, and that a gunboat will prob- ably be sent thither. England, to French minds, does this because she is jealous of De Brazzi’s success’ul negotiations with the native chiefs, and wishes vo establish her own power in that quarter of Africa. The fact is that England's gunboats have to pro- tect her flag, aud as her flag flies over the greater part of the commerce of the world in every see, they are found pretty much anywhere, when trouble arises, as the con-
