A deapstch from Shef- field says the freight conductors there stillstand out; also the freight lines from Sandiacre to Nkestone are blocked with trains, and on all the sidings in this localiy the coal and mineral traffic is largely accumu- lating. LATER DEVELOPMENTS, The Times this morning’ says it is generally: be- Meved that the Yorkshire and Derbyshire colliers will consent to arbitration. The Consett Iron- works Company, the largest makers of ship plates in England, employing 6,000 to 7,000 hands and owning nine collieries, owing to the dul- nese of their business have been obliged to tempor- @rily suspend work at most of their mills and forgea and to discharge 300 miners.

DECIDED TO Warr. Rumors were current among the conductors yos- terday that at twolve o'clock last night the ae on intended to put up signals of danger come out, The railway officials, however, believe that this «trike will be only partial. The latest news states that the railway signalmen At Leeds have decided to await the result of tho interviews with the’ directors on tho Mth inst. If the Derby signalmon remain on duty after midnight, when the reductions come into force, it is believed the Midland Railway etrike must collapse.

The extreme penalties are deprivation of eligibility for a seat in the House and the handing of the offender over to the civil courts, A STRONG PAPAL ENCYCLICAL, *Adespatch from Rome statés that the Pope has sent to the Bishops of the Catholic Chureh a very important encyclical letter, in which he speaks at length of the condition of the Church, the Holy See ‘and Society, and explains what he has already done and what remains to'be done. The document will shortly be published, and, it is believed, will create some sensation. It calls upon the Bishops to combat socialism, Communism and internationalism -by preaching the principles of the Church. BISMARCK AND THE PAPACY." Aspecial from Rome states that negotiations are now carried on between Cardinal Nina, the Papal Seo- retary of State, and Prince Bismarck direct, without the intervention of the Nuncio at Munich. Prince Bismarck’s professions are friendly, but the impres- sion prevails that little more will be obtained from him, unless the Socialist bill proves insufficient. A PLAGUK IN ASTRAKHAN.

The drain upon the other banks has considerably decreased. ‘The market for bar silver is at a tomplete standstill.

The settling of the lands continued all yesterday afternoon and last night, and this morning the territory embraced in the general depression was enlarged by still fur- ther cavings. COMMOTION IN THE MINES, The effect upon the mines is very damaging. The forcible and violent propulsion of air through the several gazigways apd breasts has torn down brat- ticing, sir courses, doors, and distributed fragments of lumber miscuously. Acres of the finest top coal the v: ok areas have been placed forever be- yond the of the miner, The loss is therefore very great, DISASTROUS GAS EXPLOSION. Between collieries os.

The increase in the force of the wind since Tuesday has been so great that it finally attained the velocity of forty- seven miles an hour.

The snow- fall at Bristol is the heaviest that has been experienced there in twenty years. On the island of Jersey the weather is very severe. Heavy snow and frost, accompanied by strong northeast winds continue here, The weather is clearing rapidly in the vicinity of Manchester, but it is still very cold, with strong easterly winds, OLD VATHER THAMES RUFFLED. Tho severe east-northeast gale that blew in the neighborhood of London during yester- day rendered passenger, steamboat and other trafficon the Thames very hazardous. In- deed, for some time the penny steamers | had to abandon their trips until the high winds abated ; it was impossible to steer the This, in a word, has been the most severe storm that has struck our islands for years, and we must await the reports from all the const districts before we can tell whether the people have taken advantage of the timely warning of its coming.

OPENING OF THE LEGISLATURE--ANNUAL MES- SAGE BY GOVERNOR MACDONALD—POLITICAL AND INDUSTRIAL CONDITION OF THE LEADING PROVINCE OF THE DOMINION, . ‘Tonosto, Ont., Jan 9, 1879. ‘The Ontario Legislature was opened to-day by Lieutenant Governor Macdonald with the following speech from the throne:— It would have been gratifying to me had T been able to congratulate you upon the complete return of fiuancial and commercial prosperity to our coun- try; but, while a partial renewal of — trade arid a ‘moderate gocd harvest hive afforded @ measure of relief, various causes have cked our progress and compelled a longer endur- ance of the period ef depression, While, however, our agriculturists are suffering from low prices of grain and other produce, it is most sutisfuctory to notice the already extensive and growing trade be- tween Ontario and Europe in live cattle, horses, sheep, meats and dairy products inewhich many of our enterprising citizens are now engaxed, with, I trust, profitable results to themselves, aud certainly to the benctit of the country at po gat ai: You will, 1 know, ha shared in the general feeling of pleasure excited by the selection as the successor of the Earl of Dufferin of a nobleman so distinguished for his personal worth and his varied attainments as the new Governor General of Canada, The sponta- Mency has been rendered more than ordinarily warm and cnthusi- astic by the. fact that he is secon anied by his illustrious consort, Her Royal Highness the Princess Louise, whose presence is a fresh proof of the deep interest felt by our. gra- cious Sovereign in the welfare of er Canadian subjects and a renewal of the pledge of the close and loyal band which unites the people of the Dominion to the Empire and throne. Nor can Lrefrain from expressing the sympathy we all must feel in the bereavement which has cast acloud over | the earlier days of the residence of His Royal High- ness among us. ‘THE DEBT AND THE BOUNDARIES. It-is a subject for congratulation that the long pending controver’y between Ontario and Quebec, respecting the division of the public debt and the assets of the Province of Canada, has since your lust session been closed by the judgment of the Privy Council, to which the case was submitted.’ The contention of Onturio has been sustained, and the advice tendered by their lordships to Her Majesty affirmed the validity of the award. It is also my pleasing duty to call your at- tention. to the settlement by arbitration of the northern and western boundaries of Ontario since embled. The decision of the arbitrators ¢ boundaries of the Province to extend to the waters.of Hudson's Bay on the north and to the northwest. angle of ‘Lake of the Woods on the west, these limits embracing an area of many, thousand square miles beyond the limits to which claim the Dominion since 1871 would have confined us. You ‘will be invited to approve of a measure having for its objeet the preservation of order, the administration of justice and the encouragement of settlement and poe. rise in this territory. I have reason to believe that the outlay necessary to sccure these objects will de more than compensated by the revenue to be de- rived from the country. MANUFACTURES AND INDUSTRY. ‘The iflustration of our provincial system of educa- tion exhibited at the Universal Exposition held at Paris during the past year was one of the most in- teresting features of the Canadian department, and produced a very favorable impression upon all who witnessed it. lt is encouraging to know that not only are the efforts to promote liberal and useful @ucation of our people at home increasingly appre- ciated by them but that the Province of Ontario has by this means gained no small honor and distinction ie the even of the world at large. Iam glad, also, to learn. that through the chergetic efforts of our people to make the Cunudian exhibition at Paris si , @ stimulus has been given to! beg = of §=manufacturin, in- dusty tario, and that considerable is Mi xet ir to ‘develop itself as a result oF th the more widely known value and excellence of certain classes of our manufactured goods.

I have suggested the advisu- bility of providing, by » general act, powers neces- sary tq enable companies to make such changes in their arrangements as may be necessary to meet the public demands. GENERAL ELECTIONS. The proceedings at election trials and in connec- tion with the rectification and adjustment of voters’ lists have suggested the expediency of some supple- mentary provisions which will be embodied ina measure to be submitted to you. A bill will be sub- mitted to you for the purpose of extending the right of voting for school trustecs to those classes of par- Hamentety elestora Who have not hitherto exjoyed that privilege.

B., where the officer bagged his game. Another telegram received this evening states that Fahey and his pris- oner were at Newcastle, N. B., on their way to Mon- treal, and that they will arrive here on Saturday, HOW HULL WAS OVERBAULED, To the skilful measures adopted by Mr. James, who has been hero superintending the movements of the detectives since the beginning of the week, must be attributed this capture and the recovery of almost the whole of the money, The arrest was effected in the following manner:—Several days ago Chiet Penton received information from Messrs, Field & James that they had been robbed on the wth ult. of thirty United States four and a half per cent coupon bonds, of $1,000 each, and that the thie was supposed ‘to ‘be in Montreal. A otograph and description of Hull were al He was described as between sixty-five seventy years of age, with a mustache and | whis! false tecth anda black wig, of a sallow complexion, with arapid manner of talking, besides other pe- culiarities. Judging trom his photograph Hull is man of respectable appearance, and looks much younger than he is.” HE BRIRAYS HIMSELF IN HIS CUPS, ‘The detectives took the matter in hand on Monday, butedid not succeed in getting a clew till w day or two after, when 4 gentleman called at the Central police station and iutormed # police officer that the night previous he had conversed with @ tan at the Ottawa.

AMERICAN COAL ABROAD. Wasntnaron, Jan. 9, 1879. Some timé back tho American Consul at Geneva wrote to the Department of State concerning the in- terest excited in that city by the arrival of the first cargo of American anthracite coal, The Consul, under date of December 17, now reports that the tests made at the several foundries in Geneva for the purpose of proving the quality of this coal haye resulted far more favorably than was an- ticipated, The iron made with the American coal was so much superior in firmness, durability and texture to that produced by the coke invariably used throughout Switveriand that all manufacturers interested did not hesitate to confess their amaze- ment and gratification at the results of this first ex- periment and thei intention to purchase it exclu- sively in the fatare, The Consul looks upon these watisiactory results of this first experiment as the entering wedge for a very extensive demand for aur authracite coal in Switzerland.

One Irishman in an ad- vanced stage of enthusiasm called out, “Three cheers for Oliver Cromwell Grant !”’, To this there was only a faint response. CHEERS AND GOOD WISHES. At’ Portadown, Dundalk, Drogheda and other stations there were immense crowds, the populations apparently turning out en masse. Grant was loudly cheered and thousands surrounded the car with the hope of being able to shake the General by the hand, all wishing him a safe journey. One little girl created considerable merriment by asking the General to give her love to her aunt in America, All the Belfast journals, ‘in more or less acrimonious terms, denounce the action of the Council of Cork.

LOOKING FOR FENIAN EMISSARIES, When the steamer was about to start the Inspector of Detectives inquired minutely of the Henao representative concerning each member of the Grant party then on board, apparently to satisfy himself that they were exactly the same gentlemen who landed here five days ago, and that none whocame were disguised Fenian emissaries masquerading as American generals, and who had remained behind while allowing some of their accomplices to get away under the same disguise. * THE GENERAL IN LONDON.

(BY TELEGRAPH TO THE HERALD.] Hanrrorp, Jan. 9, 1879. The occupation of the new Capitol which the State. of Connecticut has provided for her statesmen and, the formal election of a Governor by the Legislature’ has somewhat diminished the interest in the contest for United States Senator, but to-day all this for~ mality ended, and the Senatorial fight will soon be at fever heat. Governor Andrews was chosen, of course, and so after five years of democratic rule Connecti- cut has once mee a republican administration. The. new Governor is a lawyer by profession, and except. a term in the Le ure he has not been much identifi with public outside -of his profession. This afternoon’ he read his message to both houses in joint convens' tion and enters upon his term of office under favor=; able auspices. The result of the Senatorial contest, seems to be between Jewell and Hawley, with the; chances in favor of Jewell. Other candidates are: mentioned—O. H. Platt, a lawyer of Meriden; Henry B, Harrison, of New Haven, and ex-Governor Minor, of, Stamford, In case the antagonisms betweem. Jewell and Hawley are iremaunl it is thought Platt may be the man. Nobod; tends to know who will be elected, but Jowell'#t ‘tionds —_ a me jority, while, Hawley’s are very active and. deter- mined.’ Some of the Legislature, it is ssid, have pl themselves several times, and the claims of all the candidates would far exceed the number of, members of both bouges. As the journed to-day until Tuesday there the canvass until next week. wile a bes lau in MIDNIGHT WEATHER REPORT. | ‘Wan DEPARTMENT, Ovrice oF THE CHrler SIGNAL ‘Wasurxotox, Jan. 10-1 A.
