Messxs. Brake Bros., of this city, ship- pad on the steamer St. Lawrence to Halifax market yesterday, twenty head of cattle, weighing on average fourteen hun- dred pounds. They also shipped three superior bulle, ‘(ise cf these fed by Alex. McRae, Eeq:. Poewnal, Lot 49, was a niagnificent animal, weighing 2,312 Ibs.

4s edition 6{ 10,060 copies of « neat little at,p>let, containing 48 pages, is just issued from the offic¢of Mr. Jotun Coombs, by Mr. Joha Ross, of this city. It consists of useful sud interesting paragraphs, testimonials re- garding Mrs. Ross’s *‘ Magic Healer” Salve, sod business advertisements; among others the realer will find that of Tue EXAMINER 00 page 28. The primary object in publishing this ttle book is to advertise Mrs. Ross’s Salve, aad from the recommendations farnished by physicians, druggists. clergymen and promi- pout jadies and gentlemen, in various parts of the Island, it is evidently an excellent article. We are pleased to announce snch an under- taking amongst us, and trust he may be amply rewarded for the enterprise shown in com- piling a pamphlet for free distribution through- oat this Island. hi catia

Tre Foot ball Club had quite an euthu- siastic meeting last evening, at Citizen’s Skating Rink. We direct members atten- 04 to the following article’from the Lou- Gon Lancet :—‘'Now that the fvotbali season has come to an end, a timely oppor- tunity occurs of drawing attention to the exceptional amount of danger run by the votaries of a much abused (in every sense of the word) form of amusement and exercise. Since October last we have taken the trouble to cut out the record of each case of accident at football that we have met with 4] the papers, withgut, be it noted, Aly special search tor them. A Mist of accidents is here giver, and tbe article continues; ‘* This list, which, of course, in uo way represents the total amount of the season's football casualties, amply sutlices .o recall attention to the ex- ceptionally dangerous nature of the game. “other popular game with which we are acquainted has the same amount of peril attached to it. It may be urged that acci- gents are bound to ovcur in ajl sortg and | *iids of amusement, and that hunting is fésponeihie for even worse and more fre (Ment accidents than football. This may be 80, but hunting is free from the objectionable element of personal conflict which pervades football. The game requires reform; we ay reform, Lecause we think it would be UnWiss, and, on the whole, undesirable, to follow a recent American preposal, and demand its prohibition in our schools. To put @ stop altogether to the principal winter ‘urement of thousands of young peoplo WOUld, we are sure, be impossible, Nor ig #t needed; for football, under such res- irict.ons as wonld reduce the pumber aad severity of these frequent accidents, “ capable of far more good than harm What those restrictions should be 8 not for us to decide, bat we should ven- tare to cal! attention of the Rugby Union aad the Association authorities to ‘eollaring’ and ‘charging’ reapectively. Reform there must be, for the game is still only too wel described by an old writer as ‘a friendlie kind of fight rather than a play or recre-

‘ble troops north of the Indian frontier and fortify all other frontiers. He taunted Gladstone for the wanton losa of life and woney in the Sondan campaign, which was a humiliating failure :

St Pererssurc, May 21,

It is rumored here that the Anglo- Russian negotiations have collapsed.

An outbreak is predicted in Macedonia and Bulgaria which will soon set Enrope in flares.

Loynon, May 20.

Lord Randolph Churchill moved a reduc- tion of two millions for the purpose of call- ing attention to Saturday’s blue book on the Penjdeh incident. He said the indig- nation aronsed by a perusal of the despatch- 68 was not confined to the Tory party but shared by the country at large, and even hy Liberal newspapers. He maintained that M. DeGiers has said nothing to justify Gladstone’s statement in Parliament that it

| had been agreed that no farther advance

should be made on either side. He de- clared Gladstene’s statement of March 13th was a fiction and a phantom without the smallest justification. After some further discussion Lord Rantlolph asked®leave to withdraw the motion.

The suggestion of further difficulty with Russia is farnished by 4 report which is to the effect that the Russian government has demanded and obtained from Persia the re- loase of Ayoub Khan This veteran intriguer and former ameer of Afghanistan, was ar- rested early last month by the Shah at the solicitation of the British Conaal at Teheran who had information that Ayoub was about to be employed by Russia to foment a rising against the Ameer Abdurrahaman with the view of Ayoub’s uliimately oc- cupying the thron> as a Russiau tool. Ayoub has been detained as a semi-prisoner at ‘Teheran since April 11, notwith- standing one or two mild protests by Rus- sia. The latest report indicates that Rus- sia has got tired of protesting and being

| satisfied that England's complagency will

stretch to any limit, she has altered her tone to one ofcommand. If it be true that the Shah has relsased Ayoub upon Raasiv’s demand, it is significant as proving that British prestige among the Asiatics is crumbling. Tha London Times, referring to the Afghan papers, says much useless correspondence aud mischievous irritation would have been avoided if the goyern- ment had discavered earlier that the Amoer did not want Penjdeh. It was a fatal error on the part of England and the Ameer.

It is authoritatively stated that Russia demands Maruchak and Zu'ticar Pars, possession of which the Ameer considers vital to the integrity of the Afghan Frontier.

Advices from Tirpul say that the Ameer in a proclamation compliments the Afghan troops on the galiantry at Penjdeh and lays vreat stress on the value of the British alliance. Reinforcements are said to be daily arriving at Herat.

The Franchise Bill.

Orrawa, May 21.

In the House of Commons to-day, Sir John acdonajd will amend the Franchise Bill by proposing that the qualification for voters on real property in cities, shall re- main at 300, and for voters on real pro- perty in towns $200. To the clause relating to residence and income, Sir John proposes to add, ‘‘Derives an income from earning,” and to change the amount from $400 to $300.
