One murderer, celebrated for his rese blance to the picture of Christ, pressed bi face against the bars with an effect that was startling in the moonlight.

Loxnos, June 17.—Lord Salisbury’s dis- patch to the British ambassador at Berlin, containing the agreement with Germany, declares that Germany's claim that where one power oceupies a coast the other may not, without consent, occupy unelaimed regions in the rear, cannot be allowed in cases where the country is already occupied by English- men, but where there are 1o English settle- ments England has no title to advance against German_ claims. The agreement in substance s follov England retains the Stevenson d, which will be the boundary between the English and Geriman spheves—a line stretehed from the mouth of the Bokura, on the west shore of Lake Nyussa, to the mouth of the Kilambo, on the south Shore of Lake Tenganyik Northward Germany retaius the region s fa as the Congo state and along the first de of south latitude, the boundary diverging around the western shore of Nyanza to in- clude the mountain of Mfumbire, in the British sphere, in order to make the frontier coincide as nearly as possible with the region covered by Stanley’s treaties. In all the Bast African territories equal rights of set- tling “or trading shall b conferred by the two powers respectively on their sub- jects. The details of the fronticr between Ngamiland and Damaraland remain to be set- tled, but it is agreed that in the latitude of Lake Ngamai, up as far as the eighteenth de- gree, the German frontier shall coincide with the twenty-first degree of east longitude. In Tongoland the frontier is rectified, securing the mouths of the Voita to England and iy ing Germuny access to the Volta river at the higher point of its course, Germany cedes Witu, the islunds of Manda_and_Patta and moli, comprising a coust line of over two hundred miles to England, so that except the Congo state there will 'be no competitor with British influence between the first degree of south latitude and the borders of Egypt along the whole country lying south and west of the Italian protectorate, Ger- many consents that England shall assume exclusive protectorate in the sultanate of Zanzibar, inclosing the islands of Zanzibar und Samon. England will ussist Germany to obtain the cession of the German coast line hitherto rented from the sultan. England, considering Heligoland useless since she lost Hanover, will cede it to Germany, subject to the consent of parliament, The present cus- toms tarift will bo continued twenty years, “The other coloniul disputes in Africd g served fora friendly settlement and a status quo will be preserved pending the ratification of the present ugreement, Ll Headache, neuralga, dizziness, nervous- ness, spasms, sleeplossness, cured by Dr Miles’ Nervine.
