LODGE OF

FOG. AND NIGHT SIGNALS.

Signalling is said to be almost as old as language itself. In fact it is a language, but unfortunately neither as common nor as casily understood as speech. In no place is it as much appreciated as in navigation. And in no other place has it remained so much at a standstill, or advanced but little beyond what may be called the rudimentary stage. The maritime world has of Inte years been treated to any number of pamphlets upon the art of marine signalling, and the systems that will, if adopted, prevent colli- sions at night or in a fog are as numerous as the ships that go to sea. It is evident, however, that despite all that is written upon this sub ject a good fog signal system is not now in use. Steam-whistles, bells and fug-horns indicate the

LONDON, August roth.

The papers of the late Emperor Frederick taken from Germany by Queen Victoria, it is alleged, almost provoked an international diff culty. Bismarck notified the Queen that the papers were the property of Germany and the must return them. The Queen refused. Bis marck's next summons was more vigorous and addressed to Lord Salisbury, accompanied by a threat that unless the papers were restored he would send an army to London to accomplish their restoration. The Queen held out for some time, but, as it appears, finally yielded.

There is deep consera over the destruction of crops by rain and cold weather. Meetings of landlords and tenants are being he'd to consider the situation, and the conclusion reached is that English farmers must abandon wheat raising: that this uncertain climate, coupled with foreign competitors, renders it impossible to make wheat pay as a crop.

The Zululand crisis is ended. The English, at first surprised, gradually secured re-enforce meats and are now masters of the situation. All opposition is now crushed.

An officer will study a system that is based upon the telegraph alphabet, or is a little complicated in the number of sounds or signs made, but the true system is the one that every man on board can comprehend without difficulty. Captain Howes certainly seems to have reached this point with his system. It is in no sense complicated, there is only the time of the duration of the blast to be counted, and the longest blast, covering one-half the points of the compass, is only nineteen seconds' du ation. The same may be said for his night signals. And a card containing both systems can be attached to the compass box, and so arranged that a diagram showing the course of the two vessels can be seen at a glance. This system is intended for steamers, but it could no doubt be arranged as well for sailing vessels, especially with the many inventions that are offered in the way of fog

In the Lords to-day Salisbury, moved the second reading of the Parnell Commission bill. After reviewing the case at some length he said the gentlemen incriminated did not seek legal redress, alleging that they distrusted British juries. If they thought they could not obtain justice in England they could have such in Ireland, but instead of adopting that course they reiterated their demand for a committre of the House of Commons. The Government con- sidered the House incapable of furnishing an impartial tribunal where so much personal and political feeling was involved, and thought it better to again resort to an ingulry by a com- mission. The Government had full confidence that justice would be done as it had nominated three of the ablest and most impartial Judges. The charges against these judges had not left the slightest stain on the character of the distinguished men- against whom they were directed, but they had covered with dishonor the men who impugned them. The commission would close these contro versies.
