He has been summoned to Parle to explain how mailera atsed in the Colony, especially with regard to the proposed railways there. M. Doumer will stay for a few months in France, and will return to the Colony in November next, On the 13th alt, the Governor-General gava an official dionez, at which he spoke a few words to these present, dwelling especially upon the delences of Salgon, He said that Salgon was strong enough to baulk any attempts at surprise by an enemy. The Courrier d'Haiphong suyu that M. Doumor has paid especial attention to the defences of Tonqula. That journal maintains that such vigliance is called for after Mr. Chamberlain's speech at Birmingham.

EXTENSIVE RUSSIAN NAVAL
REINFORCEMENTS,
A telegram from St. Petersburg was received
Ja Tokya on July 28th stailng that the Russing Government has decided to dispatch a powerfal fleet, to be named the Port Aribor and Talion- wan squadron, to the East, in addition to the prerent Oriental squadron. The ficet consists of all the powerful "warships now in the Baltic capable of undertaking a long voyage, with the exception of coast-defence ships, cruisers, and torpedo-beat destroyers.
IN THE WINDPIPE.
A most alarming accident, and one which is oficu s serious as it looks, is the sucking into the windpipe of a morsel of food or some other substance This is not very rare accident, expecially with chlidren, whore hold all, alter the pockets are crammed, is usually the mouth,
The articles which have been drawn into the larynx through the sudden taking of a deep breath are of the mori varied chaise er, each as lackstones, nuts, marbles, color, buttons and plus, not to menilen bars, corks, tin whistles, leeches, shawlpins, Esirpins, false teeth and even a real tooth which slipped from the forceps Just as it bad heen extracted. Plecos of food are sometimes Inhaled through hearty laughing or excited talking while eating.
The entrance of the foreign substance, even If it is only water, causes violent coughing soda *pasmodic closing of the larynx, which almost amounts to suffocation. If the body has passed through the larynx into the windpipe, or has heen thrown out, this suffocative attack passes off, and the sufferer may think his trouble is
Just as the flag was plantol by Anstralber, Codrington rode to the Redoubt, and, leaping his horse through one of the embrasures, he landed Into the breast work, while close behind him, shouting, cheering, hurrablog, and rushing, scrambling, leaplog like toidest, the British warriors poured over the parapet, and the Great Redoubt was taken.
Captain Bell seized the bridle, and had just wheeled the horses round when he was abruptly reprimanded by Sir George Brown, who ordered bím off to join his company; but he had already turned the horses round, and out them full speed'down the bill amongst the Driilsh troops, where the capture was completed. The gun is now to be seen amongst the' spolls of war that are preserved at Woolwich Dockyard.
The perilous fate of war favoured Captain' Bell, and gave him immediate reward for his bravery. His chicl, Colonel Chester, of the
Royal Welsh, had been killed; his successor, Campbell, had also fallen; and as colonel of bir regiment Captain Bell fought for the remainder of the day.

A Philippine repabile in the absence of on American fleet would not last a year. A wild scramble for coaling stations would begin on the part of Fracce, Germany and Russia.
