Spee — A Strange Case. .

A strange case has just been decided in a French court. A nobleman of Rus- sian-Poland became naturalized as a French citizen in 1854. In 1873 he went through the legal process neces- sary to legitimize his eon who had been | born out of wedlock. ‘The son accord-| ingly assumed the name and title of Count Auguste Branicki, after* the French fashion, which allows to alli the sons of a:noble house the title of their father with theirown name _ in full. Some time ago the elder Count, having returned to Russia, found that the act of ligitimation weuld not be allowed

PRINCE LOUIS NAPOLEON KILLED BY ZULUS. Lonpon, June 1.

Renter's despatch from Cape Town, of June 3rd, via Maderia to-day, states that Prince Lonis Napoleon, the Prince Imperial of France, accompanied by other officers, left Col. Wood’s camp to reconnoitre. The party dismounted in a mealie field, when the enemy crept upon them and assegaied the prince, killing him. fiis body was re- covered.

there. He then wrote to his son, ask ing him to drop the title which he had been in the habit of using. .The son| refused, on the ground that he was a| citizen of France; that he had served in the French army, and was actually employed in a French Government of: fice nal that therefore, the laws of Russia could not interfere with him. His father, however, brought suit against him and the French Courts de- cided that he had no right to the pater- nal name or title, both which he has, accordingly, being compelled to sur. render. Much sympathy has been ex- pressed for the young man, who is well known in the higher circles of Parisian society. He has Leen so stnng with shame atthe exposure aud loss of his name that he has resigned his position in the Foreign Office. ‘The case, means time, has been appealed. > Pe

Lieut. Rose, son of Sir Jobn Rose, is with his regiment, the 10th Hussars, in Afghanistan. On April 2, in a fight which took place with the hugianies near the Jerulabad Valley one of the enemp—an adherent of Ghilzai, singled him out for attack. As the man ap- proached him Lieutenant Rose fired his revolver, but though the Khugianie was hit he was not checked. Not having time to reload, and not having a second weapon free, Lieutenant Rose, oa the impulse of the moment, threw the re- volver in his antagonist’s face. This movement had the effect of checking the man, and while he was recovering from his surprise the lieutenant had time to draw his sabre, A hand-toshand tight ensued, resulting in the death of the Khugaianie. The impulso which caused Lieutenant Rose to throw his revolver at his opponent saved his life.

————$— — . a German Colonization.

Several German Newspapers are strongly advocating “ a colonizing

licy like that of England,” and the feeling of the nation has been setting steadily in the same direction for several years past. ‘he non-colony system hitherto adhered to is plainly traceable to Frederick the Great, who, requiring nine-tenths of his scanty revenue to maintain the formidable army which made his little kingdom one of the first powers in Europe, had no navy, no colonies, and no “outside connections"? whatever. Bat what immature Prussia durst not aitempt, mature Germany may accomplish with ease, especially since the Gerinmans are as truly “born colonists” as the French are not. To give one instance out of many, 5,000 German emigrants were scattered in 1869 in the Brazilian Valley of Juiz de Fora. By 1872 the cultiva- tion of sugar and coffee had advanced so far as to yield a large annual profit. The emigrants had increased to 14,000, and had astablished two churches, three schools, several mills, two very comiors tazle hotels, a daily stage-coach to the terminus of the Rio deJeneiro Railway at Entre Rios, anda branch railway in the same direction, which was comple- ted a year later.

A Woman Kills Her Husband.

Oliver Tomlinson, of Bridgeport, Conn., last week posted his wife and commenced a suit for divorce. On the morning of Thurs- day, she took his revolver from the bureau and threatened, if not reconciled, to kill herself. When he approached her, she shot him above the heart and then herself through the left breast. She claims the shooting of her ‘husband accidental. The

EGYPTIAN AFFAIRS. Lonpon, June 19.

The Times makes the fellowing reference to a despatch from Alexandria, stating that the French Consul General proceeded in full uniform to the palace to announce that the French Government had decided to in- sist upon the deposition of the Khedive : “Tt is not to be supposed that the French Government would have taken a step of such importance without the c8nsent or ac- quiescance from our Government, anda, if it has been taken at all, we have entered upon a near and-very critical stage of the Egyptian question. ”

Telegrams from Cairo report that the English and French Consul Generals inter- viewed the Khedive, yesterday, and de- manded his abdication in favor of his son, Prince Mohamed Tuefik. The Khedive promised to abdicate.

The African Slave Trade.

The following comes to us by the last English mail:--Letters have come from Colonel Gordon, bearing so late a date as April 7. He had then arrived at Shaka, a haunt of the slave-dealers and a depot for the human produce which comes down from the Gazelle River district, where Gessi is exterminating the trade at its sources. Colonel Gordon found upwards of 100 dealers in the place and he expelled them all. Such slaves as were there he sent back to their own country; while the dealers, Arbs, would probably go north to Khartoum and wait for bettertimes. Mean- while Gessi’s long struggle appears to be ended. Fresh forces and more ammunition have reached him. He has now 7,000 men, and in his last despatch, dated March 28, he says that, although for a long time his opponent Suleiman was able to renew his forces from the ‘natives, who where under the thumb of the slave-dealers, the supply had at last stopped, and only about 700 men were now under arms. Gessi had liberated about 10,000 slaves and sent them back to their own country. ©f course, what is wanted now is to make this triumph per- manent. Military stations will be necessary, and they will not suffice without a steady desire on the part of the native officials to keep down this wicked traffic. But snch a desire does not at present exist. As long as Colonel Gordon stays all will go well. But it is announced that he is coming dewn to Cairo, and it is feared that he will never return to the great work which can only prosper in his hands.

Yistory of an Irish Clan.

belongs, compiled by the monks of one of the abbeys, raised by his ancestors, that this manuscript was taken to France by a MacMahon who was compro- inised in the great Tyrone rebellion and had | to escape to the continent, shortly after he | fought a duel, and was rim through the body; that his blood soaked the history which he always carried on his person, and | that a great part of the writing became, in’ consequence, illegible. The work is said to_ be beautifully illuminated, but the contents | are more of family than national interest. Be this as it may, everything in connection | with sucha distinguished clan is of public in- |

Hear what a Reverend Gentleman says of the Constitutional Remedy.

T. J. B. Harprxe, Esq., Brockville, Ont. :—

Dear Sir—It is now two years since your “‘Censtitutional Catarrh Remedy ’ was intro- duced to me. Ihave waited this ong to see if the cure would remain permanent before do- ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the happy effects seemed to me to be “‘too good to be true.” I was afflicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh, In reading in your Circular I saw my case described in many par- ticulars. The inward ‘‘drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, 1 would feel like smothering and be compelled to sit upin the bed. My health and spirits were seriously affected. When your agent came to Walkertown in August, 1875, I secured three bottles. Before I had used a quarter of the contents of one bottle I found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite cured of that ailment, and have not used any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my head.

A sense of duty to sufferers from that loath- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send you this Certificate, unsolicited, with leave to make what use of it yon may see proper Yours truly,

W.-TINDALL, Methodist Minister. Port Elgin, Ont., Aug. 24, 1878.
