The sals the body. of the party were discussed, at great length. Another meeting was held this evening.

TEWPS decided to convene the National Committee immediately at Doblin in order to deal with the situation. The meeting passed resolutions of repret at the failure of

negotiations.

McCarthy and Sexton issued a brief official statement declaring that the Boulogne negotia- tlons were conducted upon their sole respon- sibility, uninfluenced by any other members of their section, and specifically upon the basis that Parnell's leadership was impossible.. ป

Sexton adds: McCarthy and myself had an interview to-night with Dillon and O'Brien, who declared, that in their judgment, we had done all men could do to arrive at a friendly result,

The Times says it is understood that Parnell has refused to be satisfied with anything short of a pledge to leave the Deblia Fasliament absolutely unfettered to deal with the question.

In the Commons to-day Healy created a com. motion by asking Balfour when any portion of the Zetland relief fund will be paid, cash down, Balfour said it was a private fund, with which the Commons bad nothing to do. MacNeill asked if Balfour and the Farl of Zetland did not make an appeal for funds in their official capacities. Balfour said, "Certainly not."

The Tithes Dill passed its third reading. Bombay dispatches state that Prince George, the brother of the Crarewitz, is on his way home to Russia to receive medical treatment for in- Juries caused by his fall to the deck of a Russian Ironclad on his way to India. The young Prince was desirous of continuing the tour with his brother, but the Charina imperatively demanded his return.

Half the elty was under water and the houses are being washed away by scores. In the west end of the elty three blocks have been reduced to ruins, and the number of victims in miready stated to

be 100.

In the East End a similar state of things is recorded, Houses are falling, owing to the foundations being wenkened by water.

In the meantime the most terrible panic pre valls. The air is filled with the shricks of terrified women and children, and people are seen running madly out of the city.

At II o'clock on Friday night the authorliles observed, that the inundation was taking place, It being supposed that the dyke had given way, The police immediately began firing their rides to awaken the population and apprise them of the approaching danger.

The people thought at first that a revolution had broken out, but soon the waters begna to spread and rise. The panic then began, and, what made matters worse, the whole city was steeped in darkness owing to the gas factory having been inundated,

Up to n late bour no further news was received, it being supposed that the telegraph offices must have been washed away. The damages are estimated at over $3,000,000, and more than 150 persons have lost their lives.

NEWTORT, February 12th.

The second night's sale of the Seney collection ́attracted another large crowd. The Melisonier offered, brought $15,000, some thousands more than its price at the Secretan sale, and was bought by James Graham. The picture was an extremely interesting one and was exhibited at Paris among "A Hundred Masterpieces." It was received with appl-use by the spectators. The auctioneer asked for the opening bid $30,00 and got $15,000. The segregate for 101 pictures
