MONEY MARKET. .
MONEY MARKET. LONDON, Tuesday. The Discount Market keeps firm, and rates have a hardening tendency. The American Ex- change shows no signs of recovery, whilst money in New York yesterday was rather dearer. A continuance of gold export is therefore certain. So long as the demand, as at present, falls mainly UP,:Q Paris, the market here will not be so directly affected, but the refusal of the Bank of France to part with more _old would throw the onus of meeting the inquiry upon us, and the Bank of England would,! therefore, be compelled to adopt further measures to check the export. The* discount rate for three months bills is 2¡ to 3 per cent. Short loans were not much wanted to-day, and were quoted at 1 to Ii. Continental Exchanges keep tirm.

---------I MADE " DIVARSHUN…
MADE DIVARSHUN OF HIM. At the last meeting of the Ballymena Guardians, Robert Davison, widower of 70, appeared before the board and asked them to get a wife for him. Amidst much laughter, he said he would be satisfied with an old or a young woman, with or without family." The workhouse master was then directed to conduct the applicant through the work- bouse and show him all the girls, that he might make a selection. The visit caused great hilarity amongst the inmates. The old man had inter- views with the women, but failed in his negotia- tions, and returned to the board room without securing a ptize. The applicant informed the board that the women made nothing but divar- shun of him, and, on being told by the chairman that they "did not supply wives there," he left the place.

CRICKET. NEWPORT XI. v. CAPTAIN BIRCHAM S XI. The local men kept the wickets in the above two-day match until they had scored the handsome total of 232 runs, when their last man, Scott, camed out his bat. Emmett (senior professional, in whose behalf the match was arranged) met with hard lines. Being not out overnight, he went in with Ivins. but was caught at wicket in the first over. His companion, on the other hand, survived repeated changes of bowling. and made the top score of the innings. The match ended in a draw in favour of Newport, the visitors being unable to finish their second innings CAPTAIN BIRCHAM'S XI. 1st innings. 2nd innings.

KENT. A great batting triumph was achieved at Kennington Oval, yesterday, by Mr W. Read and Mr K. J. Key. These two gentlemen became partners when Surrey, who were 120 runs behind Kent, had lost one wicket in their second innings tor 12 runs, and for rather more than three hours theydetied all the efforts of the Kentish bowlers. This time the two amateurs put on 241 runs, Mr Read being out shortly before time for a splendid innings of 100. Apart from the conditions under which the innings was commenced,the perform- ance was the more remarkable from the fact that for a long time the Kent bowling was very good, and the fielding never grew slack or loose. Cricketers generally will be glad to hear of Mr Bead's success after a run of misfortune. He batted very finely indeed yesterday, and hit nine 4's, seven 3's, sixteen 2's, and eleven singles. Mr Key, who was not out 139 when play ceased, batted in grand form throughout, his strokes including a grand square hit out of the ground for six. Thanks to these gentlemen, Surrey at the drawing of stumps were 133 runs on, with eight wickets to fall. Previously Kent had raised their overnight score of 87 for one wicket to 256. Lord Harris and Mr Marchant put on 71 runs for the sixth wicket in 50 minutes, while several others batted well. Lohmann took seven wickets for 102 runs, but bowled with considerable ill- luck. The weather was again delightful, and over 6,000 people paid for admission to the ground. Score:- KENT. 1st Innings. 2nd Innings. W. Rashleigh, b Lohmann.. 37 F. Hearne.c W.

NOTTS. ? So far the return match between these counties, at Sheffield, has been a curious repetition of the first meeting of the teams this season for Selby's benefit, at Nottingham. On that occasion the whole of the first day was occupied by the innings of Yorkshire, while on the second Notts lost eipht wickets. In the present en- counter Notts occupied the wickets for the whole of the opening day, scoring 241, and on the second York- shire lost nine wickets. As may be easily imagined. the wicket yesterday was extremely slow, and the play lasted from 25 minutes to 12 until six o'clock. Only 214 runs were scored for the loss of nine wickets. There was nothing in the condition of the ground to account for the tslow scoring, but the bowling of the Notts men was wonderfully good and steady, and the fielding remarkably close and accurate. At one time it:almost looked as if Yorkshire would have to follow on, for the score was only 90 when the fifth wicket went down. A timely stand by Peel and Hall, however, put such a thing out of the question. Throughout his career, Hall can scarcely have played a more patient innings. He went in fir-it and was the seventh man out at 160. Altogether he was batting for four hours and twenty-five minutes for his 10, and he did not give a single chance. Nothing could tmpt him. and at one time he was forty minutes without getting a run. Perhaps the best innings of the day was played by Peel, but Wade and Ulyett both batted exceedingly well. Sherwin kept wicket in tine form, and made three good catches. With one wicket to fall, Yorkshire are now 27 runs behind, so that,provided the weather keeps tine, there is every prospect of a grand game. Score;- NOTTINGHAMSHIRE. 1st Innings. 2nd Innings.

SOMERSET v. HAN TS. Hants achieved a very creditable batting perform- ance at Taunton yesterday. Wanting 235 to save the follow on, they put together 227 by a very spirited dis- play of batting. The overnight score was 36 with one wicket down. Wynyard and Forster, the not outs, made a capital stand, adding 50 runs before the second wicket was captured, Forster being cleverly stumped. Wynyard retired shortly afterwards. Steele played a useful innings for 68, but gave several chances. Roberts and Currie made a plucky attempt to avert the follow on, and had scored within eight runs of the coveted number when Currie put one up to S. C. Newton at cover-point, and the innings closed at 3.55 for 227, or 88 runs in the minority. Nicholl's bowling on such a run-getting wicket was a highly creditable per- formance, he taking six wickets for 30 run?. Hants did badly on the second innings, and, with six wickets down, were only 18 runs to the good when time was called. Score SOMERSETSHIRE. Innings. 2nd Innings. S.

The Brighton ground was much faster yesterday than on Monday, and the character of the cricket underwent a considerable change, 332 runs being scored for the loss of 13 wickets, as against 263 for 16 in the first stage of the game. Lancashire's innings, in which seven wickets had fallen overnight for 116, was finished off in 65 minutes, but during that time no fewer than 80 runs were scored, the hitting being severe. Watson and Pilling put on 40 for the last wicket, but the latter ought to have been caught by the wicket-keeper standing back directly he went in. Sugg's brilliant b9 included twelve 4's, three Ns, and three 2 3. Sussex went in for the second time just after one o'clock against a balance of 49 runs, and when at three o'clock four of the best wickets were down for 58, there did not seem much interest left in the game. Then, however, came a com- plete alteration. Humphreys and Mr Thomas mastering the Lancashire bowling, and putting on 127 runs in two hours. This was a capital performance, and, apart from some small blemishes, the batting was admirable. Mr Thomas, who was out at 185, gave a sharp chance to Mr Jowett as th rd man when he bad made 19. and might possibly have bee;' stumped for 43, but his 5b, which comprised six 4's, a 3, and seven 2's, was an innings quite worthy of his reputation. Hum. phreys has seldom done better. lie went in at 40 for three wickets, and left at 193, his 82 being the result of nearly two hours and forty minutes' batting. Early in his innings two of his hits touched the fields. man's fingers, and shortly before getting out he skied a ball which fell harmless in the long field. By twenty past six the innings was over for 252, leaving Lanca- shire with an innings to play to-day (Wednesday) and 204 to get to win. Whatever the result, the Southern team deserve immense credit for making such a fijht against a county which has in turn beaten Surrey, Gloucestershire, and Notts. core;- LANCASHIRE. 1st Innings. 2nd Innings.

The second day's cricket in this return match at Clifton was again watched by a capital attendance of spectators, and some all round play of a highly inter- esting character took place. The overnight state of the game was Gloucestershire 257, Middlesex 55 for no wicket. Yesterday the visitors at first seemed in for a big score for 150. went up with but twu wickets down. However, at 152, Nepean wa3 bowled for a faultess 71, and from that point things went badly indeed for Middlesex. The young Oxonian had been two hours and 20 minutes making his runs, and had hit four 4's, six 3's, and nine 2's. This score following his bowling of Monday proves his immense value to his side. Stoddart, yesterday, only added six to his previous total, and of the other Middlesex men, O'Brien alone showed to advantage, and the innings closed at twenty past three for 212, which left Gloucestershire with a useful majority of 45. Peake, who has not played for two years for his county, bowled with great success, his six wickets costing 47 runs, but his analysis yesterday was really remarkable, it reading 18 overs and 1 ball, 8 maidens, 28 runs, and 6 wickets. When Gloucestershire went in a second time.tbe brothers Grace scored 69 for the first I wicket, and it was 92 before the second batsman was out. but then came something like a collapse, and wbeu play ceased for the day seven wickets were (Iown for 143 runs. E. M. Grace, who was out third at 105, hit a 6 out of the ground to square leg, and six 4'11. The match is now in a most even state, as, with three wickets to go down, the home county are 188 runs ou. Score GLOUCESTERSHIRE. 1st Innings. 2nd Innings. W. G.

Being 155 in arrears, the Canadians followed on, and at luncheon time had lost two wickets for 120. Afterwards the visitors batted extremely well, and finally left Liverpool 7b to get to win, and after a good game the runs were hit off with six wickets to spare. MR H. TIIORNE'S XI. v.

ME LINCRY DDAN HORTICULTURAL…
ME LINCRY DDAN HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. TO THE EDITOR. Sitt,-Kindly permit me to correct your unfair and misleading report of our show held on the 18th instant. Instead of being condemned for want of energy, the committee ought to be congratulated on the fact that in the face of the many special difficulties they had to contend with this year, they succeeded be- yond their expectation in maintaining the high standard of the four previous shows. Writing for them, I state they never felt greater pride and satisfaction at the result of the show than they do this year, and we have good grounds for adding that the exhibitors are equally gratified. The attendance may have appeared thinner than usual owing to our adding the spacious now room to the three we have previously occupied, but the fact of our gate money amounting to within a trifling sum of previous years' takings, proves your correspondents statement to be incorrect. The entries were less than last year (explained by tho extraordinary season), but more than the other shows. Tho actual number of exhibits in the show were greater than last year, so that your remark that the combined efforts of promoters and exhibitors showed a lack of almost every element of success" is certainly not what is deserved or expected. If the show had been a failure, it would have been due to outside causes. The Neath show was held on the previous Thursday, an dAberdare and Kilybebill shows, two local tea parties, &c., were held on the same day as our show, and these must have drawn off some of our patrons. The committer of this society have carried out five annual shows successfully, and are doing a good work by offering an inducement to the working man to take an interest in gardening, and it is to be regretted that the difficultied they have to overcome should be increased by misrepre- sentation, and consequent discouragement, such as we now complain of.—I am, &c., W. HENRY THOMAS, HOD, Sec. Neath, Aug. 20, 1887.
RISCA CEMETERY.
RISCA CEMETERY. TO THE EDITOR. SIR,-I understand that our local authorities are to meet on Wednesday next to consider the question of "consecration." But I have thought apart from this that we should, as ratepayers and residents of the district, take some steps so as to express onr disapproval of the way in which this business isi-ianaged, resulting in such great delay in opening the cemetery. That such delay, to say the least, must be most prejudicial to the health of all is clear from the fact that the only burial-place of any account (the Church) is in the centre of the town, and this burial ground was declared full nearly 20 years ago. Not only have ordinary burials taken place, but iiv the interval there have been a couple of explosions. Surely if the board does not open forthwith, we should, as ratepayers, appeal to the Home Secretary. Again there is the question of cost. Some of the mem- bers say that the cemeterj will be a burden of about JE190 per annum, even when opened. If so, it is patent to all that the Risca board has paid but little regard to economy.—I am, &c.; A RATEPAYER.
IRELAND'S PARLIAMENT.
IRELAND'S PARLIAMENT. TO THE HDIIOR. SIR,—The die is cast, and t|)e Parliament of the Irish people (alias National League) is suppressed or proclaimed. Is it not galling to the very extremity of human nature to bear this insult ? When we are advocating physical force, we are told to trust to the justice of the British Parlia- ment. When we have,after years of toil,educated our people to the point of trust in the democracy of Britain, our voice is stifled and our pens paralyzed. What is to become of it ? Are our people to bo again driven into secret societies, to be afterwards brought before a packed jury and conveniently hung or transported, or are we to be driven into insurrection that we may the- easier aud more quickly be got rid of ? Well, sir, I, for one, regret that my countrymen are not in a position to meet this Tory Government upon equal term, be those terms the legal or warlike one, but as we are not, we must do the best we can. After giving vent to my feeling so far, and calmly judging the position, I do not know that we have any reason to be dissatisfiedfor I don't know that this impotent but tyrannical Government could have played into the hands of the great Liberal and Irish party better than they have done by this act of proclaiming the National League. Bnt something more than a mild protest must be made. Let every Liberal join the National League, and thus show the Government that the great British democratic party will not permit their Irish brethren to be strangled under the name of law.—I am, &c„ WOLFE TONE.
WHAT "THE WORLD" SAYS. --...
WHAT "THE WORLD" SAYS. The Indian chiofs who recently visited Worces- ter were so delighted by their reception in the faithful city that they have sent the mayor a beautifully ch:"od silver claret'jug. The Crown Princess of Garmany has presented Dr Morell Mackenzie with a picture of her own painting, in tokon of her grateful appreciation pf his skill. It is, perhapp, not generally known that it is absolutely essential that every maid of honour should be a good horsewoman and correct reader of music at sight. The two favourite pursuits of the Piincess Beatrice are riding and frying over new music in the form of duets and no maid is chosen who is not an adept in both arts. The fate of North Hunts causes the deepest anxiety in Downing street. Irish orators have taken undisputed possession of the village inns and the village greens; circuits have been arranged, and the Huntingdonshire labourers are said to be much moved by the Hibernian elo- quence, b which they listen with avidity. Colonel Cornwallis West and Mrs Cornwallis West have arrived at Ruthin Castle from New. lands, their place near Lymington, where they have been entertaining numerous visitors, includ- ing Lord Ormonde, Lord and Lady I)elawarr,the Ladies Sackville-West, Lady Gort and Miss Vereker, Mr and Lady .Virginia Sanders, Mr H. Howard, and Mr and Mrs Morant. The Reform Club closed last Saturday, for the purpose of making the much needed sanitary improvements, which will take fully two months toexecute, at a cost of £ 2,000. In the meanwhile the members will find temporary accommodation bnth at the Devonshire and the National Liberal Club. The young Duke of Albany, an intelligent little boy of three, has already entered upon the duties that Royalty is heir to, and his miniature Royal Highness last Friday afternoon laid the founda- tion-stone of a new house which is being erected in Claremont Park. Assisted by his mother, he performed the ceremony with dignity and savoir- faire, and declared the stone to have been well and truly laid." The house is to be in the Adams style, and Gillows are the builders. Over one million pounds'weight of salmon, I am told, have reached Billingsgate from Scotland during the last four weeks but the supply will now be largely diminished, as close time" has already commenced on the river Tay, which is the most productive salmon-stream of Scotland, and yields a rental of over £21,000 per annum to be owners of its fisheries. The present year, so far at least as the bird of the heather is concerned, will undoubtedly be chronicled in red letters in the calendars of our sportsmen. Grouse-shooting is seemingly all that could be desired, and birds were perhaps never before so plentiful. Bearing in mind the terrible tale circulated three months ngo as to the disease having broken out, the present abundant supplies, and the sudden fall in price from three half-guineas a brace to much less than a third of the sum within four days after the "Twelfth," have come upon the public as something of a surprise. The Princess of Wales had a rough passage from the Nore to Copenhagen, and during the last thirty-six hours the Osborne encountered very heavy weather. This yacht rolls much, so her Royal passengers suilercd severely, as they are not good sailors. The King of Denmark, the King of the Hellenes, and other members of the Royal Family met the Princess at Kiamenborg, which is a great Danish sea-bathing resort about eight miles from Copenhagen, where the Princess landed, because it is within two miles of the summer palace of Bernstorff, where the King and Queen of Denniaik are now residing, and the Crown Prince and Crown Princess are at the neighbouring chateau of Charlottenbund. Mr Samuelson, M.P. for the Forest of Dean, who is one of the most juvenile members of the House, has sprained his wrist so badly that he is forced to appear with his hand in a sling. The Queen leaves Osborne this evening for Balmoral, where she will arrive about two o'clock on Thursday afternoon. The date was fixed some time ago, it having always been the Queen's intention to be at Balmoral next Friday, which is the anniversary of the Prince Consort's birthday. The Cabinet would have been glad to keep the court at Osborno till the eve of the prorogation of Parliament, as it will now be necessary tc hold the Council for the Speech at Balmoral, which involves a long and troublesome journey for the Ministers and officials. Lord Salis- bury passed last Wednesday afternoon atOsborne, and dined and slept at the Palace, this being a farewell visit to th- Queen, as the Prune Minister never goes to Balmoral so they will not meet again till her Majesty returns to Windsor at the end of October, the move south being accelerated this year in consequence of Princess Beatrice's approaching accouchement. Sir Arthur Hayter, who is now the accepted Gladstonian candidate for Torquay, has rented Charter Towers, which was built by Mr Froude, and is now owed by Mr Henry Samuelson, the late member for Froine. It seems the outcry about the desecration of Byron's tomb was rather premature. The pro- posed alterations of Hucknall Torkard Church will not in any way affect the floor of the chancel under which the poet's remains rest. His monu- ment will be re-erected exactly as at present, and will still be over the vault. The only difference, as far as the tomb of the poet is concerned, will be that it will then stand at the entrance to the chancel, instead of just within the altar rails, as at present. So far as is known, Lord Byron never entered the church until his remains were brought there for burial, and, as Mr Phillips, the vicar, remarked, It does not therefore seem to be of vital importance to keep it exactly as it was in his time." Nor could this be done if it were wished,' as a previous restoration has completely altered the appearance of the church.

THE CLEVELAND IRON TRADE.
THE CLEVELAND IRON TRADE. MIDDLESBROUGH, Tuesday.—The tone of the market was firm to-day, and a rather more cheer- ful feeling was noticeable. There is a little more inquiry for pig-irod, and shipments are better by 6,000 tons than for the corresponding portion of last August. The foreign demand is, however, not very satisfactory, except to America. The makers quote No. 3 at 55s. Merchants, how- ever, offer prompt of that quality at 34s 6d, buyers being 34s 4-d 34-s 7d is quoted for the next two months, and 34s 9.:1 to December. No. 4 forcre is offererl at 32s 3d, and warrants are quoted at 34s 4d to 343 6J. Connal's stock of warrants has been reduced 136 tons upon the week. Steel rails are fairly shipped, and rolled sleepers are being turned out at the works. The steel plate trade is busy, jE6 to L6 2s 6d being the quotation. Manufactured iron is rather more active than last week, though the trade is dull. Bars are E4 10s; angles, JS4 53; ship plates, L4 7s M, less com- mission.

CARDIFF EXCHANGE.
CARDIFF EXCHANGE. BUTE DOCKS, TUESDAY EVENING. As we foreshadowed towards the close of last week, the coal trade continues exceptionally slack; and as there will be little or no business done at the docks and probably no coal shipped to-morrow, th. total export for the week is hardly likely to exceed 120,000 tons. From the fact that some of our large coalowners have been fortunate enough to secure large 'forward orders, the market for best qualities continues firm; but the demand for seconds and Monmouthshire coals is weakening daily. The prices demanded, how- ever, are still those which have prevailed for some time past. Buyers well know that a few firms ars prepared to do business at a consider- able reduction off current rates. It, bow. ever, must be stated that the latter re- mark only apptes to coalowners who cannot afford to curtail their output to any appreciable extent. The demand for house coal is, if anything, weaker than at the close of last week, and the business done has been ex- ceptionally small, but an improvement in this branch of the coal trade can liardly be expected until the warm weather breaks up. Recent advices from Bilbao state that the quautity of iron ore exported during the present year from that port has now reached the amazing total of over 2,800,000 tons. Very loug loading turns have prevailed there lately, and one local boat has just got away after meeting with a de. tention of 20 days in obtaining cargo. Inactivity still prevails in our local freight market. Steam tonnage continues to come forward very slowly, and as a result very little in the way of chartering has been effected. Rates for the higher Medi- terranean and coasting ports keep very firm. Baltic are steady. Spanish continue dull. West Indian and States depressed. Eastern unchanged. The following include the latest operations :— Port Said, 8s 4bd (Rugby); Rouen, 63 (Creaden) Dieppe, 5s 3d (Kingswear); Tencriffe, 8s (Anerley); Gibraltar, 7s (Farnley Hall); Venice, 9s 9d, option; Ancona, same rate (A'bany); Philadelphia, 98 9d, blooms, Newport loading; Algiers, lolfcs (Tinto); Constantinople, 7s, option Syra, same rate paid and f.f^c. (Craig- more); Dielette, 5s 9d (Gertrude); Bordeaux, 5ifcs (Wyndcliffe); Lisbon, 5s 6d, clean charter (St Helier) Caen, 5s (Vulture), Swansea loading. SaiL-Market depressed, and rates weak all round. Orders continue very scarce, and as a result very little is being done in chartering for South Wales loading. Ore.—A fair inquiry still exists, especially for Bilbao loading to ports in this channel. Huelva rates rule fairly steady. Carthaarena home freights unchanged. The esparto demand since the beginning of the present month has shown more activity, and many consumers have now completed their ar. rangements for winter and spring requirements. Prices for best qualities,though a trifle firraer,have. on the whole, undergone little material change. London advices report Black Sea home rates without material change. Danube rates continue firm. Eastern unchanged A Calcutta wire states home freight quiet, and very little employment offering. Present quota- tions are ;-London-Steam-Linseed,26 3d; jute, 27s 6d tea, 50s wheat, 25s. Sail-Saltpetre, 22a 6d; wheat., 22s 6d linseed, 25s. Liverpool- Linseed, 23s 9d wheat, 21s 3d; jute, 25s.
SWANSEA EXCHANGE.
SWANSEA EXCHANGE. SWANSEA, TUESDAY. The attendance to-day was fairly good. The buyers were again represented from Liverpool and elsewhere, and Mr David Evans, the general manager of the Barrow Company, was observed in the town, which firm are sending a large quantity 51 of steel into the district, and who have always been largely interested in the tin-plate trade. Pig-iron.—The market opened firm, and the following prices were well sustained: Scotch (to-day) warrants, 42s 9d, cash, closing sellers 42 lid, month, closing buyers. Hematites.-Steady. Warrants, 44s 2d to 44s 61, cash 44s 6d to 44s 7 d, month, closing sellers. Middlesborougb.—Steady. 34s 6d for No, 3, prompt.. t> Cwmavon hematite.—Pig Bessemer, No, 1, 2, and 3, mixed, 48s, f.o.t. Swansea hematite.—Bessemer, JNo, 1, 2, and 3, mixed, 48s, f.o.t., cash, less 2 per cent., with slight stocks and prices firm. The make of pig-iron is considerably lessened by the scarcity of water,causing the loss of tuyeres and continual interruption in the blowing. Steel.—There is no alteration in the prices, which remain as follows :-Siemens' bars, L5 2s 6d Bessemer bars, 24 15s, Bessemer blooms, 24 5s delivered, cash, less 2 per cent. and Androssan Scotch basic blooms quoted about Is less than Welsh Bessemer, the cheap freights enabling them to compete as against the heavy railway rates, and to all works near a port the expense of delivery is less from Scotland, White- haven, and Barrow. Merchant bar iron, 24 10s; sheet iron, J36 15s; common steel sheets, E,7 10s per ton, with tbo usual trade extras for T, cash, less 2 per cent. Steel Rails.—Heavy sections, E4 5s; light sections, E4 12s 6d to JB5; steel angles and channels, according to section. Tin plates.—Coke tins IC, 13s to 13s 3d; Besse- mer, 13s 3d to 13s 6d Siemens, 13s 9d to 14s, accordiug to finish ternes, 28-20U, 27s to 28s per double box all delivered Prince of Wales Dock, Swansea. Payment: cash, less three and one percent. During the week the stocks have been reduced by 16,700 boxes, and, as compared with the corresponding period of last year, shews a diminution in stock of 30,530 boxes. It will also b. observedthat the shipments have exceeded the make in the same ratio as the stocks are reduced. The inference to be drawn is that, whilst the production is being daily lessened, the demand is maintained. In addition to the serious shortness of water, there are other influences at work, which will cause a change of a material character, but while some of the works have been obliged to stop others are turning out anything but full work. In the face of all this it is impossible that prices can be kept down, notwith- standing all the resistance which may be offered by the buyers to an advance taking place. Block tin.—Straits, 2103 5s;;Australian, £103 10s, cash. Copper.-Chili bars, L40 7s 6d cash, and 240 17s 6d forward, with firm market. Spelter.— £ 14 15s to £ 14 17s 6d, firm. Freights were reported low, and coasting ships were fixed at the lowest summer rates. Coals for manufacturing purposes in fair demand.

PRANZINI'S LAST APPEARANCE.
PRANZINI'S LAST APPEARANCE. Sensation hunters are on the tiptoe of expecta- tion about the execution of Pranzini, which is be- lieved to be imminent. Some have even come back from the seaside in order to be present at the ghastly scone, and others are preparing to take temporary lodgings in the unsavoury neigh- bourhood of La Grande Roquette. The execution is looked forward to as an all-important event, not only on account of the peculiar interest which Prauzini inspired, but also because it is believed by some that he may make some statements re- garding the mysterious woman at the foot of the guillotine. All seosationalParis is, therefore, on tenterhooks, and people are vehemently talking of Prauzini, in the dearth ot anything better to distract their attention, or to occupy their thoughts. The murderer is, in the meantime, con- fident in the clemency of the President of the Republic.
HAD NOT "GOT THEM ON."
HAD NOT "GOT THEM ON." A railway porter at Crosby, near Liverpool, was considerably startled about four o'clock in the morning by the appearance on the platform of a man habited only in his shirt and one stocking, who, in a wild fashion, demanded his clothes. The porter, being unable to satisfy his strange visitor, went for a policeman, who, after some persuasion, escorted the man home, but no trace could be dis- covered of the missing clothes, nor could the owner remember what he had done with them.
