Americian Adulcerations Loypox, May 31.—The Telegraph an- nources that jo articles of food imported from America are many adulterations. Official analysts have mate the appalling discovery tbat tarred rope is freely utiliz< ed in the manufacture of the ginger of commerce; that pulverized clay is lav- ishly mixed with the flour tupplied to unsuspecting Britons “for heuseheld use.” Corn-starch fizures as a cogious adult- terant of powered sugar ; ground-up co- coanut eheils are extensively sold as prime buckwheat flour ; jellies are made of apple- cores aod parings, blended witb glucose, and butter isa compound of tallow and marrow. Condensed milk on the oher hand, is perserved by means of wood alco- hol, whieh—being strevously poisonous — is admirably calcu'a ei to abridge the lives of its unwary customers. “Despite the recent recru Jesvence of Ar- glo-Awerician amity,” says the Telegrayi, * and it8 tempting promsve of an intormal alliance, in the coming by and br, between the two great English speaking~vatione, we are Only j'00 well aware tbat the time- worn axiom, “Tb re isno friendship in business,” still bold: good on both sides of the AUlantic, acd will probably continue to do so until the crack of doom.

Paris, May 31.—Amid cries of “Bra- vo!” which President Mazeau did not at- tempt to suppress, M. Ballot de Beaupre, yesterday afternoon declared, with solemn impressiveness, his conviction that the authorship of the famouse or iofameus document which. in the hands of his enemies, sent Captain Alfred Dreyfus to Ide du Diable, did not belong tu the prisoner, but to Esterhazy, the unspeaky able scoundrel who had already admitted that he manufactured it ia obedience to orders from hie military chiefe. The learn~ ed reporter to the court made the moment~ ous declaration ia the fo lowing worde: “In my opinion, the whole legal examina tion of the case should be confined exclu- sively to the hand-writing aod paper of the bordereau. Is the borderesu, which was the basis of accusation and conviction, the work of Dreyfus or Esterhazy ? If itis the work of Dreyfus, there is no;necessity to icvoke other facts.” Here he madea L.ase, which seemed to the eager listeners unbearably long. Tien looking aound the court, he added, in measured and imprea ~ sive tones :— Bat is it his work? I procleim to you thatI have sccquired the conviction that the boreroau was written, not by Dreyfus, but by Esterhazy.” The Eastern Situation.

McCluckey believes that Marion Clarke, the kidnapp- ed baby, has been tound at Garnerville, IN, Y Duchy of Saxe-Coburg. Teno a Loxpon, May 31.—A despatch to the Morning Post from Berlin says that since the declaration of the Dake of Connaught, in which he expressed himself as prepared toassume the succession to the throne of the Grand Duchy of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, now occupied by bis brother, the Duke of Edinburgh, arrangements have been made by which the succession will pass to the Duke of Albany, a nuphew of the Duke of Connaught, the latter re- nouncing it for himeelt and family. A WELK ARGUMENT, es Srtr,—I was particularly struck by the ridiculousness of one of the arguments in this morning’s Guardian. The writer says: “These men (the liquor dealers) feel better than they did a week ago, There is a sense of dignity and respecta- bility about them that is new.” Why eo? Last week end for the past twe years the liquor tratlic has been Jegal and licensed in this city under certain conditicns ; it is now legal. aud licested voder additional reatric'ion®,—plus the payment into tle Provinciai treasury of $200 , year. Before the payment of the $200, liquor dealers were free if they observed the conditions: now they are free if they observe the harder conditions, That their case is in avy way improved no ove buta blind fan- auc can imagioe ; aud certainly they have no aiditiona, reaeon to think wall of them- selves. But I quite agree with you, Mr, Editor, thatthe musey ought to go inio the city treasury—not into that of the Province. Pusiic Option. SS ee DIED.
