Loxpoy, Aug. 14.—Mr. Gladstone’s re- ‘covery has been rapid, and it is expected that he will attend the House of Com- mons next week. He was present to-day at the Cabinet Council, which had much im- portant business to consider. France is re- solved to withdraw from the combined European movement against Turkey “if any steps are moral suasion. Gambetta’s speech at Cher- bourg shows why she pursued this course. The German press manifests anxiety. The attitude of France disappoints many Liberals, though the close relations of Sir Charles Dilke and Gambetta enable the Foreizn Office to understand the French ex-dictator’s real motive. The atti- trde - of France behooves Mr. Gladstone to move circumspectly. If too impetuous he may leave the other Powers behind and precipitate a conflict. At present nothing but a naval promenade hhas been agreed to, and that will. prove ineffective. It is evident that the Albanians are more eager to secure their own inde pendence than to resist the cession of the non-Albanian territory to Greece. The meeting of the Albanian League at Prisrend was so conclusive that Turkey no longer trusts the Albanians to fight her bat- tles. The British Cabinet isalso confronted with OTHER DIFFICULTIES than those of Greece and Montenegro, Gam- detta’s speech has tempted Russia to make fresh overtures for a French alliance, but the Standard’s correspondent says the offer was peremptorily xefused. Russia is also credited with a desire to tamper with Austria, her susceptibilities being aroused by the meeting of the Emperors Francis Joseph and William at Ischl, and the subsequent meeting of the former with the Prince of “Roumania and Servia, the two last named being evidently intent on transferring their friendship to Austria and German; urther significance is added to these incidents by the sudden journey of Count Moltke to Ischi, by way of Vienna, to mect the Emperor Francis Joseph and the Princes mentioned. ~ There is also increasing danger in the com- plications in the Balkan States. Russia is concentrating troops in Bessarabia, causing thereby uneasiness in Roumania and Aus- tria, “Russia’s object is to support Bul- guria, A Roumanian uprising: is evident if Turkey is nct induced to yield peaceably to the decisions of the Berlin Conference. She is threatened with a war of nationalities of great proportions, in order to avoid which Negotiations are proceeding among the Powers to secure Turkey a guarantee of her remaining European’ territory if she ac- cepts the Berlin recommendations. Sir Charies Dilke’s statement on this point ere- ated much interest. It is felt thatthiscourse 46 the most likely to secure a pacific settlement. GREAT BRITAIN, HOME POLITICS, Spectal Cable. Loxpos, Aug. 14.—Home politics are live- ly. Though the Government dropped some minor bills, it retains the leading measures, cand is determined to sit, if necessary, to the middle of September. The Tories are ‘annoyed at this, seeing splendid prospects of grouse shooting. ‘The. “hare and rabbit” was chiefly fought out by Mr.Chaplin and Lord Elcho for the landed interests, with Sir William Harcourt and John Bright for the bill. Chaplin made a &reat scene in moving to reserve ground game as a matter of special contract be tween -landlord and tenant. ‘There. was a personal incident between Mr. Bright and Lord John Manners. The former attacked the country party, and Lord John Manners advised him to be muzzled. The Liberals must fulfill their promises to the tarmers in this matter. The Tories dare not prevent them. Even the Lords will not resist the passage of the bill. THE BURIALS BILL febate revealed the collapse of the Ecclesi- astical party, who admitted the necessity of roncessions to close the subject: The Tory votes on these critical questions were not Eighty, —too few to impress the Upper Cham- I. The Irish members have taken little part. in the wevk’s debate, reserving their strength to oppose the appropriation for the Constab- ulary. The disturbances in_ Ireland weaken their position, especially as Ireland pays only a sinall contribution. The Employers’ Liability bill ism smooth water. ‘The employers will endeavor to take the contract feature out of it and substitute an insurance fund. The bill is complicated, and may tend to cause much litigation. The railway interest is scared at the measure, which includes railway servants. A MELODRAMATIC PERFORMANCE. The seizure of arms at Cork is generally re; led “as a melodramatic perform- ance, for effect in| New York. fifty-seven old smooth-bore muskets were stolen, and twenty have been recovered, ‘The fact that fifty men suddenly assembled, nearly all with revolvers, on hearing that the ship possessed arms, is very significant. Se cret societies have developed lately, and it is alleged that many Irish-Americans have ar- v * HE Aah ait MURDER at New-Ross is not attributed to the rejec- tion of the Compensation bill. The plots against the victims are of older date. ‘The projeeted po pular demonstrations have not been successfal. The Clonmell meeting was a notable failure. Many Dublin cor- respondents - assert, notwithstanding the agitation in a few places, that there is an unmistakable improvement in public opinion in Ireland. The Chinese Ambassador's journey to St. Petersbure creates ‘some interest. Before Jeaving London he talked of issuing letters of marque. Many Europeans haye en- gaged for the Chinese forces. ‘The Russian press is nervous and hopeful Tespecting Gen. Skobeleff’s successes over the Turcomans.

AFGHANISTAN, AYOOB AND ABDURRIAMAN IN COLLUSION. Spectat Cabie: Lonpon, Aug, 14.—There is still great ex- citement in English military circles over Gen. Burrows’ defeat. The Government’s promise to institute an inquiry has some- what pacified public feeling, but it will be necessary te extend the re- search beyond personal responsibility for the disaster. The whole subject of the Indian staff service and the English oflicering of native regiments must be opened up. The Indian Office has been startled by the announcement from St. Petersburg by the well-informed correspond- ent of the Daily News that Abdurrahman and Ayoub Khan are acting in collusion. Considering the rivalries of the branches to which the Princes belong, it is difli- cult to believe the story. It is al- leged that such an alliance was brought - about by Russia, which isalways the English bete noir. There- are some singular cor- reborative circumstances, For months past <Ayoob is known to have been in active communication with Ryssia and Persia.. Abduurrahman has also main- tained communication with Gen. Kaufmann. Telegrams announce the murder of the mes- senger and the theft of Abdurrahman’s dis- patches to Gen, Kaufmann. Neverthetess, the India office discredits the collusion story. THE RELIEF OF CANDAHAR, “here is much anxiety respecting the re- lief of Candahar. Ayoob Khan has already lost his opportunity. He should have de- tached portions of his foree to mask Canda- har, and then gone to Ghuzni and raised the whole country in Jehad against the British forces, The Tory free lances are inaking capital of Gen. Roberts’ march. They pro- fess alarm at his progress without a base at Cabul. The Government shelter themselves under the fact that his movement is adopted on Gen. Stewart’s recommendation. Gen. Roberts’ chief difliculfy will arise if Ayoob Khan re- treats on Herat or eludes him by ascending the Urgundab toward -Cabul. Such Par- thian tactics may cause trouble. The Russian press. fear Ayoob’s retreat will draw the British to Herat. Great complaintsare mede respecting the delays which attend Gen. Phayre’s advance toward Chaman. Antici- pating that he may need supplies, an enor- nous provision train has been organized to follow him at the end of the month. TREACHERY OF ABDURRAHMAN KAHN. To the Western Associated Press. Lonpoy, Aug. 14.—The following is tho verbatim copy of the dispatch received by the Daily News from its correspondent at St. Petersburg last night: “I have grave reasun to believe that Ayoob Khan has been acting in concert with and been assisted by Abdurrahman Khan, and that the worst suspicions are not without some foundation. I would assuredly not send such disconcerting intelligence ex- cept on the most serious grounds.” ‘The ex- pression, “worst suspicions,” is interpreted to refer to Russian intrigues, or possibly to rumors of actual Russian coéperation with Ayoob Khan. A St. Petersburg correspondent has grave reason to believe that Ayoob Khan is acting in concert with and has been assisted by the present Amecr. AYOOB’s FORCES. The Standard has the following from Quettah: ‘Fresh native reports state that Ayoub Khan still intends Yo attack Canda- har. His hesitation to attack does not arise in disbelief of his capacity, but because he is uncertain whether to attack by escalade or sap and mine.” THE RECENT MURDER. ‘The Standard’s Berlin correspondent says: “The dead Afghan, mentioned on the 12th as having been found on the road from Samarcand to Russia, was an Afghan Chief who was attached to. Abdurrahman before the latter left Turkestan. He was the bearer of dispatches from Abdurrahman Kahn to Gen. Kaufmann.” TURKEY. TROUBLE WITH BULGARIA EXPECTED. Lonpoy, Aug. 14—A Bucharest corre- spondent. asserts that the Bulgarians positively refuse to cede Arab Tabia to Rou- mania, and that there are large armed bands of Bulgarians in that vicinity. Rouwmania has taken measures to occupy the position immediately on receipt of tho notification of the Powers. According to reports from Bucharest, 45,- 000 Russians are concentrating uear Berder, to be ready in the event of action of Bulga- ris, The transportation of munitions, horses, commissary stores, and troops is continually going on near the Roumanian frontier.

ESENT PROSPECTS. . 14.—The weekly grain cir- cular say Wheat-cutting is now general in the earlier districts. The crop in South Essex appears to be a fair average asto quan- tity, and very fine quality. The wheat crop in Devonshire is the. best since 1868, but in the midland counties and in Lincolnshire and Yorkshire the prospects are very unfavora- ble, the injury done not being wholly repara- ble, even by fine weather. ‘Estimates of the French crop, which a short time ago ranged from: 90,000,000 to 000,000 hectolitres, now appear to be from S5,- 009,600 to 95,000,000. No trustworthy estimate of the fingl yield can be made yet. But a total yield of 90,000,000 would make necessa- y an importation of 21,000,000 hectolitres, ‘The German harvest is delayed and injured by wet weather. Prices at Berlin are higher than a week or fortnight ago. Fresh ship- ments to the United Kingdom from sources other than American remain very limited.

M4.—About 5 this afternoon, K, E. Parkburst, a young lawyer of this village, shot and killed Fannie Howell, daughter of a prominent merchant here, and killed himself. They were married about four years ago, but never lived togethor, a legal separation takiug placo immediately after tho marriage. Tho tragedy took place in a room in the Nichols House, where the two went but a few minutes before the shooting. The young man and womun belonged to the best families in the place, und ae a romance wus connected with their lives. ix cr seven yours ago they were married ata plenic, but the parents interfered, and the courts declared the marriunge null and void. Since ur- riving at age Parkhurst desired a remarriage, but the girl's parents objected. and ill-feeling was engendered. To-day Parkhurst aguin tried to persunde the girl toiive with him, and, upon ber refusal, drew a revolver, shooting her, and then himself. CAUGHT WITH HIS PLUNDER. Spcclal Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune. Aurora, Ii, Aug. 14.—After his nomination for State Senator to-day at Geneva, Col. H. H. Evans returned to this city, and with a couple of friends entered a restaurant for lunch. The Colonel Inid off his coat’ for au ablution, and when putting it on again missed a pocketbook containing notes and papers of great value. A trampish-looking stranger who hnd been seen about was suspected of the robbery, and was soon after apprehended in Gramp's soloon, all of the property being foundonhim. Marshal Gates locked him up. STARVATION AT LOUISVILLE. A Young German Girl's Fast of Fifty Days. Special to Cincinnati Commercial. Lovisviitz, Ky., Aug. 11.—The story of the starving girl, Minnie Sicbach, is one of strango mystery. Sunduy last Dr. W.T. Leachman, oncof the best physicians in the country, visited the house of Mr. and Mrs. Sicbach. They live ina smail cot- tage ontze north side of Marshall, one door above Jackson. “ Vell, vat is your peezness’ is areborter please go ava: great deal lately by them.” The German woman who metthe visitor at the door will permit him, if he be a physician, to ex- amine the sick-chamber. This privilege was ac- corded to Dr. Leachman. The sick girl lay nt full length on an ordinary bed, the covering of which was neatly reversed in part several inches above her waist. Her arms were also nt full length, end her legs were stretched similarly. Examination showed a fuir temperature ‘of the body, buts pulse of J%1. Her feet were cold, 60 cold that hot. iron had been placed against them. Looking at her bands, Dr. Leuchman discovered skin and bones, the former drawn tightly to the latter. Lifting the arm, he discovered remarkable rigidity ana corresponding heaviness, The joints are more or less anchylosed. The eyes, when this physician. made his examination, were closed, but tho mouth was wide open: Respiration was quick and labored, while in respiri: 4 most pro- nounced nojse could be heard allover the sick woman's apartment. “How Jong, Madame,” asked Dr. Leachman, * has it been since your daughter tasted food?” “ Nine and forty days,” was the answer. » tong as that! Yes, sir; no f no water.” “ Any medicin questioned the Dortor. . “No,sir. I baye tried even to force victuals and drink down ker throat, but she immediately throws e" ‘thing up.'” ‘The physician continued bis examination. Her stomach xppeared very hard, and when be touched the spot over the lower lobe of her left lung Miss Siebach moved as if in pain. “There,” said her mothet, “ that part always hurts her; it is the cause of her sickness.” " sheasks. “Ifyou ve is pothereda Dr. Leachmen gave careful examinution to the spot again. *1t contains,” he suid to the mother, “water or matter which has come from water. ' Has sho ever had lung fever?” “No: nothing till this came on.” At this juncture the girl's frame, from the ab- domen to. the neck, .moved up and down with much force and frequency. The diaphragm was especially convulsive, and resisted with ease the physician's hand when placed upon it. But the more remarkuble occurrence was the sound of her voice, which, increasing in pitcn und volume, gave forth a noise like the low barking of n dog The convulsive movements lasted five minutes, and the barking died away with them. ‘The phy: sician bide Mrs. Sicbach ‘ood-by, and promised to call again, which he did on Monday, when, on the fiftieth day of the fast, he found her ina high fever, Miss Sicbach is not quite 18, has been pretty, and still retains 2 smut mouth and tecth which are as snowy white, well formed, and beautiful as womiin ever possessed. ‘The case is indecd a.strange one, a How Soon We Are Forgot. How soon human glory becomes only a ficet- ing shadow. But so goes the world. It is a story verified by many generations. A China- mun, @ student of Confucius, once took it into his bead to travel in Europe. He ‘arrived at Amsterdam, and at a bookseller’s shop he usked for the works of the ‘immortal Iixiofou. ‘The bookseller assured him that he hed never heard of the author. “What!” said the Chinaman, “baye you never heard of that immortal poet, that light of the cyes, that favorit of Kings, that rose of perfection? I ‘suppose that you know nothing of the immortal Fifsihinl, second cousin tothe moon?’. “ Nothing at all,” said the bookseller, 1t is an obvious moral. The world is the bookseller. Alas, the vanity of human fame! “How few.” says Jeremy Tay- Jor, “have heard of the name of Venepatadino Regium! He imagined that there was no man in the world thut knew bim not; how many nen on now tell me that he was the King of Nar- re “Don’t be afraid to praise your servants when they deserve it,” remarks an exchange: but, the minute the husband tries that un the bired girl she has to hunt for another situation, BUMPED IN THE RIVER, Another Excursion Party Meets with a Direful Accident.

DENVER, Colo., Aug. 14.—A. Times’ special from Como gives a brief account of an acci- dent which occurred at Red Hill, a small station on the South Park Road, last night. About 12 o’clock | a: fire broke out in the depot and ‘caused the of about 1,000: pounds of powder, which blew the depot and every building in the place to atoms. The agent, I. E. Col- yer, was baaly injured by burns and cuts, and is not expected tolive. His assistant, Charley Hilton, was killed, and two other men badly injured. Further particulars of the explosion at Red Hill last night are to the effect that Frank E. Collyer, Agent, T. J. Conway, As- sistant Agent, and Charles Glinn, freighter, were sitting in the depot awaiting the down train when the explosion occurred. When the Flairplay coach reached the scene of the disaster soon after the passengers found Charles Hilton, an cmploré, fearfully man- led, and notastitch of clething save onesock eing found on him. Collier was severely wounded about the head, and it is feared his skuli is broken. Conway was internally in- jured, but not fatally. Glenn was wounded about the body, but not seriously. Lis coat was split from the neck down. The ground on which the depot, freight-house, ¢ating- house, saloon, and forwarding-house stood is now bare of buildings. They were blown into splinters from the size of a toothpick to that of office kindling wood. Not one stickjon another remains of the five buildings. It Js said that twelve cases of gunpowder were in the freight-house, but this is mere rumor, and there is some mys- tery about the affair. Agent Collier, who has recovered consciousness, says there was no powder about the:place, The wounded were rémoved to Fairplay. It is said that the stage-driver caught a scoundrel breaking into the safe after the explosiun. A FALLING WHARF. FA River, Mass., Aug. 14.—A wharf at Mount [Hope, upon which was a large crowd ot excursionists, broke down at 5:40 this evening. There must have been a number lost, but it is impossible to ascertain to-night how.inany, 'The first reports of jthe accident on the wharf at Mount Hopoappearto have been exaggerated, but owing to the darkness, there being no light on the wharf, it cannot be ascertained to-night whether any person is drowned. The wharf parted in the middle, precipitating from fifty to seventy-five into the trough. Many of them clung to the wharf, and others plunged into the water. Many were taken out unconscious and almost lifeless, but were resuscitated. ‘The news of the accident created great anxiety in the city, and hundreds of anxious ones at once rushed to the landing to learn news of _ their friends. At midnight the ast. boat Joad came over. The City Marshal was of the party, and reports the excitement at the scene of the accident intense, and thesereams of those who had fallen added to the con- fusion. Owing to the low tide the water was not more than five to seven feet deep and it is believed not more than two were drowned, although it is impossible, on ac- count of the darkness, to obtain accurate in- formation as to the casualties. A number of people are known to have been injured.’ It 45 iuiposstble: to get further. particulars to- nig! . DROWNED. Sr. Pavt, Minn., Aug. 14—A special to the Piovicer-Press says that R. S.

Spectal Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune. New Yor, Aug. 14.—The thiri of the se- ries of matehes between the representative rifle teains of America and Canada took place at Creedmoor to-day, and resulted ina victory for the former. On the two previous occasions the Canadians were beaten. The distances, shots, number of men on each side, and ‘conditions were the same asin the recent Irish-American match shot at Dollymount, Ireland. Each competitor was entitled to fifteen shots at each of the three ranges,—S00, 900, and 100 yards. . The American team was.composal of the follow- ing gentlemen: L. Weber, J. P. Waters, F. L, Allen, R. Rathbone, H.S. Jewell, and L. L. Hepburn, From the land of the Blue Noses came Liout.-Col. Gibson, F. Schwartz, Dr. McLaughlin, Albert Lane, Joseph Mason, and William Mitchell. In 1875 the first contest between America and Canada took place at the same range where they contended to-day. Messrs. Hotlon and Cobb were the reserves on the Auerican side and Messrs. Adam and Froth- ergill occupied the same positions on the Canadian side. The shooting commenced at seventeen minutes past 10 o'clock at the S00-yards range. The total score of the Americans was 439 to the Canadians’ 427. At the 900- yants range the Americans seored 416 and the:Canadians 407. At 1,000 yards the Amer- ieans scored 207 and the Canadians 198. Jo the Western Associated Press, “ New York, Aug. 14.—The long-range rifle- match between Canada and the United States took place to-day at Creedmoor L. I. The weather and wind were fayorable. The shooting began at 10:15. The firing was rapid, and in about an hour: each side had finished its work at the 800 yards range. - The following is the score: The light, which had been sunny and bright, changed as the 900 yards shooting opened, and in the east black clouds showe acoming storm.

Mr. Isaac Pereire, the celebrated financier, died on Monday last at the age of 74. Mr. Pereire came to Paris in 1823 from Bordeaux and joined his brother Emile. He was one of the first disctpies of Saint Simon. Having been initiated into the doctrines, he staf of the Globe in At that. period of his life he zave lectures on industry, finances, and po- litical econoigy.. When Enfantin separated from Bazard, Emile Pereire followed the apostle of Saint-Simonism. He was succes- sively a writer in the Temps, the Journaldces Connuissances Utiles, and the Debats.. it was into that Jast-named paper that he intro- duced for the sirst time a daily account of the Bourse, a stép which was soon udopted by all the ether papers. When in 18% his brother Emile became Chairman of the St. Germain Railway, which was then considered as a model for future Jines, he joined the undertaking as sub- director, and devoted his attention especially to the organization and accounts of the Com- pany. After!that he joined all the under- takings of hig brother, and the names of Emile and Isaac Pereire will be found con- nected. with all the great financial enter- prises of the Empire. For the past ten years. Mr. Isaac Pereire has been blind but he has never ceased to oceupy himself with social questions, and he remained to the end faithtul to the Saint- Simonian doctrines. All his family have been brongit up, if not in irreligion, at least in indifference on religious miatters. Mfr, Pereire was twice elected Deputy,—in i863 and 1869,—but on both occasions the election was invalidated by the Corps Legislatif. ‘The total fortune of the Percire family has fora long time been’ consiituted into a civil society, of which Mr. Isaac Pereire was the President.

Sefiora Fernandez tapped tho floor vigorously with the toe of her French boot, and said that necessary rules must be observed and enforced. The city expected it, and dis- cipline would be preserved.

Near the tleshy lady swam a thin-jointed, gray- haired woman, with spectacics lashed on her nose. She propelled herself with the genuine frog stroke, and at times put in some fancy work toshow the young people what an old lady could do. Some of the poor girls wore only a sort of skeleton-chemise, and it made one sym- puthize with them in their poverty. Among these. shected ghosts were misses in tights and rich women in embroidered skin-tight suits of the Intest Cupe May patterns. Oue of the best divers stayed undor water three minutes.
