The putient evinces a great desire to be removed from the Cupital, and, though the phystelans do notthink it safeto comply with his wishes {n that matter just at present, they are ‘free to say that as svon us it enn be safely done they will adviso his removal, probably to Long Branch.

Moxtero Rios and Salmeron, two ad- vanced Democrats, haye been returned to the Spanish Cortes on the general ticket, and the Spanish Democrats are consiterably elated thereat, ‘The return of Rios and Sal- meron gives the Democrats sixteen Repre- sentatives and four Senators, 3 much larger representation than they expected. _ Tam French Government: offora a subsidy ‘to shipbuilding companies who operate In France, A company of Clyde shipbuilders has been organized, and hay leased docks at Havre for the purpose of carrying on the shipbuilding business there and obtaining the subsidy or bounty, ‘The proposed navy- yards will give employment to 3,000 men, ‘Tire Tammanyltes have become suddenty virtuous and are now posing as reformers.

Bush fires continue to rage in the vicinity of Kings- ton, notwithstanding the shower of ‘Thurs- day night there, The airis filled with smoke, and river navigation ls much interrupted in consequence. Secnerany Buatne’s telegram to Mln- ister Lowell last night was of a much more hopeful character than that of the provious night.

Gov. Sheldon, iu company with the detegute,. has gone towards the scene of the troubles, ' iris sald that President Grévy is quite. rendy to offer the French Preaniership to M." Gambetta, but thinks that it is only court- esy to Premier Ferry to wait until he on-; counters a hostile vote in the Chamber oft Deputies. It 1s probable that. Presidenti Grévy will not have to wait long. Nearly: every member of the various Radical factions seems determined that M. Gambetta shail undertake the responstbillties of the Pre- nership, They think that as long as he at- tempts to dictate the policy of the Govern- ment fhe should be responsible to the people of France for the effects of that policy. Tie London Lancet says that the Presl- dent will not bo out of danger until the wound is healed. It holds that another fail- ure In the President’s digestive powers, or any other symptoms of blood-polsoning, may atany time tur the balance against hlin. ‘The Lanect condemns the problugs of the President's wound for the purpose of ascer= talning how the process of heallng goes on. ‘The most favorable symptoms in the Presi- dent’s condition, it holds, are tho falling of the temperature ond the frequency of the pulse, the patient’s improved powers of di- gestion, his ability to sleep, and his mental clearness, Oxe of the Directoiyof the British Chamber of Commerce hus written a letter to the Paris Temps pointing out that Jt is an utter im- possibility to negotiate a new commercial treaty between England and France before the 8th of November, and asking. for an ex- tension of tine.
