A splendid monument to Victor Emmanuel is in course of erection at the foot of the old Capitol at Rome. The portico of the monu- ment is completed, its columns being in the ancient Greek style, and the stairway and pedestal are now nearly ready to receive the equestrian statue of the monarch, which is to be shortly cast from the model of the Italian sculptor.

Piactng THe BLAME.—Minneapolis, Minn. advices state that the coroner’s jury in ‘the inquest on the victims of the T'ribune build- ing tire, brought in a verdict declaring the owners of the building morally culpable, if not legally responsible for the loss bf life. The jury found that but for the obstraction caused by the electric wires, the fire ladder would have been erected in time to save all the people in the sixth and seventh storeys. The jury, therefore recommend that the auth- orities cause all electric wires to be placed underground.

A Derective in TrousLe.—The Hali- fax papers report that Detective Phelan has been lodged in jail, at that place, for embezzling money collected for taxes. It appears that Phelan, when county con- stable, collected from time to time certain suns for county taxes, and failed to ae- count for the same to the municipality. He has been pressed since his removal from oftice to make them good, but, as he has failed to do so, a warrant was issued charging him with embezziment. _ The amount involved is between $100 and $150.
