The general ery is peace, though whenever the people meet they talk about the hitch. There is much disappointment that the Papers produced in the house of commons last night do not reach the Penjdeh affair, and therefore thrown no light on the situa- tion. Mr. Gladstone's statement that no more papers would be presented until the negotiations are completed, causes much suspicion, The newspapers contradict one another in thelr forecas The dimenities seem to center around the appointment of Russian agent at Cabul and the cession to Rus- slaof Zulfikar, which the Ameer regards as essential to the safety of Herat. As before hinted, it is quite likely that the arrival of Condie Stephen, and later of Sir Peter Lumsden, will give a more warlike aspect to the situation, becatise showing the true rof the Rus sian advances, ‘There seems tobe no doubt that the three emperors will mect at Ischi this summer. LEGISLATION FOR IRELAND. Mr, Gladstone failed to make a definite state- ment about legislation for Ireland, but my previous statement can be relied upon. The Irish members are jubilant at the postpoue- ment of the local government and [and pur- chase bills to the next session, because now they can go before the country, asserting that the government has nothing but coerelon for Ireland, This will much strengthen Parnell. Even the attempt at legislation “would have robbed their grelvances of thelr sentimental character. The debate on the erlmes act will be long arid better. The government hasclearly Played into the hands of the Irish party against e Judgment of the majority, ‘THE REVISION OF THE OLD TESTAMENT. The general character of tho revised Qld Testament may be stated as follows: 1st That there is practically no attempt to estab- lish & new original text. 2d. The prose is printed in paragraphs and the poetry, even if only short snatches of song, 1s printed in separate lines. 3d. ‘The rythm fs undisturbed and the literary value of the book even enhanced. The special points are that the word Lord is used for Jehovah, and the latter transterred to the margin; the word “sheol” is used instead of the word “hell;” the pronoun “its” Instead of “his” for neuter nouns; the Psalms are di- vided into five books, the last four beginning with | Psalms’ 42, 78, 90, 107. ‘The family phrases and household’ words are generally unchanged. The Athenaeum says the Teviston is a literary success, but has no claims to scholarly completeness. "The Standard calls it “a good, useful, learned work.” The Times says: “The revisers have shown wide learning, scrupulous fidelity, and reverent caution, an the general impression is that tne work will raise the Old Testament to its proper place, a5 literature apart from dogma." “Much comment is caused over the new translation of Ecclesi- astes, 2d, xvil; which instead of “vanity and vexation of spirit,” reads “vanity and a striving aiter wind.” GENERAL GosstP. ‘Mr. Lowell suils tor home June 10th, A military training school for destitute boys to be founded in memory of Gen.

THE WALES COURT-MARTIAL. An Exception tothe Ruling of the Court, e Charge. and Two Demurrers to ‘When the Wales court-martial met this motn- ing the decision of the court, not sustaining the plea of the defense to the Jurisdiction of the court, was read. The opinion of the Attorney General addressed to the Secretary of War, upon which the decision of the court was based, was read. In this opinion the Attorney General held that the eniefor the burean of medicine and surgery sclearly a naval oificer, IC Congres ini- tended to ‘such officers civil ofleers the ghotee ot 1 Sto fill them would not have been restricted to the navy, and provision would have been inade for the’ appolntment of civilians, AN EXCEPTION TO THE RULING OF THE COURT, Mr. Wilson, counsel for Dr. Wales, sald he de- sired to have noted on the record an exception to the ruling of the court, and also an exception to the trregularity of the proceeding. “The counsel,” said Admiral Simpson, “rhust Not presume to reflect upon the irregularity of the proceedings of this court.” Mr. Wilson disclaimed any Intention of re- fleeting upon the court, Tt was simply a ques- ui ether What hus transpired was a proper proceeding ¢ statement,” said) Admiral Simpson, “ that counsel takes exception, then, would seni tobe sels: Mr. Wilson said that all the defense desired Was to have these questions brought properly beiore the reviewing authority. Mr. Biair, for the prosecution, insisted that the exception should be more specific. It shoul state whether the defense objected to the Al hey General's opinion or what. After some further discussion the court ad- mitted the exception to the record in the form in which it was put by Mr. Wilson. DEMURRENS TO THE CHARGE. The judge advocate was about to proceed with the arraignment, when Mr. Wilson presented two demurrers to the charge. The first alleged that in the case of twenty-four ons ‘under charge one, the acts or events referred to ‘ ore than three gears prior to the le of the charges, and coul made the bast. ‘charge. The second set out that the specific: ler the charge of ne- slect ofduty were insufficient, and did not set out wherein he had been negligent. Afr. Blair argued that the question of limite- im person tation should be raised by plea and not by de- jnurrer, so that the prosecution could Intro- duce testimony under it. He read the general order governing navy courts-martial, which set forth that no officer could be tried for offenses whieh appeared to be known to the convening authority three years before the trial. They had aright, and it was their duty, to show that the acts set out in these specitications were not known to the Secretary of the Navy three years ago. ‘After argument, the court decided not to ad- mit the deimurrer, raising the question of limi- lation, After the midday recess the second demurrer ‘was overruled. A PLEA OF NOT GUILTY. Mr. Wilson then filed a formal plea raising the question as to imitation set out in the first demurrer tiled. ‘The accused was then arraigned and pleaded not guilty toeach of the two charges and the sixty-four specitications supporting them. ‘The court adjourned till Monday.
