SAN FRANCISCO MAIL NEWS.

[From the " European Mail."] I Mr Gladstone attained his Fevonty-fourth , birthday on December 28th, and received . numerous congratulations from all parts of tho Empire. I Mr Bradlaugh lias announced that ho ' intends, when Parliament opens, to again I present himself at tho Houso ot Commons, ami " try " to tako his scat as junior mem ber for Northampton. ! Serious disturbances occurred atDromore on Now Year's Day, arising out of tho ! Nationalist and Loyalist meetings held on I that day. The Orangemen attacked the Nationalists, and the police and tho military ' had to be called upon to restore order. I There was a scene in tbe Froncb Chamber on December 20, which resulted in tho ex- I pulsion of M. Clovis Ungues. I Tho anniversary of M. Gnmbetta's death was celebrated on December 31 by about 100 of his friends, who assembled at his country villa. The Now Year's reception in Paris passed off without any noteworthy incident. Lieut.-Colonel Sudekin, the chief of tho department in tho Military Governorship of St. Petersburg, has been assassinated by the Nihilists.

The death of Count Gideon Raday, tho Hungarian Minister of National Defence, is announced. Tbo end of the Mackonocbie case has conic nt last. Mr Mackonocbie has volun tarily resigned the living of St. Peter's, London Docks, and this puts a stop to any further prosecution. Sir Thomas and Lady Brassey have returned to England, after traversing 11,50G miles in the Sunbeam.

The International Exhibition at Nice was opened on December 24th. It is in a very backward condition. Tlie Hon. Ivo'Bligh left Gravesend on December 20, cm route for Australia. His visit is a happy one—to marry Miss Murphy, to whom he was engaged last spring. Mrs Langtry, it is understood, will stop two days at Honolulu on her road to Mel bourne, and will favour the Sandwich Islandois with a performance. "Recent Explorations in tho Southern Alps of New Zealand " is the title of a paper by tho Rev. W. S. Green, whicb is to be read before the Royal Geographical Socioty at their next meeting on Januarjr 7. The Right Hon. Lord Aberdare will preside. A man, who first refused his name and address, was at Leamington on December 28th sentenced to three months' imprison ment for a series of frauds upon medical men. He afterwards represented that his namo was John Murray Gibbs, brother of Dr. Heneago Gibbs, with whom he was on unfriendly terms, and that be had returned, weakened by rheumatic fever and with five motherless children, from New Zealand, where ho had lost both wife and practice. An item of news has just been made public about one of our most popular literary men which will be of great interest to colonists. It is said that an agreement has just been entered into under which, in tho spring of 1885, Mr Sala will leavo England for Australia, there and in New Zealand to deliver _ a course of five lectures, descriptive of English political, social, literary, and artistic lifo. He will be away for nearly eighteen months, probably communicating sketches of his adventures to tho journal of which he has been so long one of the leading representa tives.

We find amongst the list of new com panies brought out last year that four were formed in connection with Australia and Now- Zealand, as against eight in 1882. The total authorised capital of these four was £3,900,000. They were as follows.:—The Anglo-Australian Steam Navigation Co., with a capital of £000,000 ; the Australian Loan and Agency Company, with a capital of £1,000,000 ; Nelson Brothers, with a capital of £300,000 ; and the New Zealand Mort gage Company, with a capital of £2,000,000. The nominal amount of capital for the whole of the companies brought out in London last year was only £35,301,500, or rather less than half the nominal amount of the issues in 18S2

We notice that tho third new steamer of tho New Zealand Shipping Company—the Ruapehu—has arrived in the Royal Albert Docks, and is to sail on January 10, via St. Vincent and Hobart, for the four chief ports of New Zealand. On her trial trip on December 28, she made the splendid speed of lo knots, and we understand she came round from Greenock to Gravesend in 51 hours, or about 14} knots. Her officers are all accustomed to the colonial trade, Captain Crutchley, late of the Union steamship Mexican, being in command, and Mr Cross, tho first officer, having also left that ser vice. The second officer, Mr Baxter, has been in command of one of the company's clippers. The Ruapehu will be followed by the lonic on January 24. The arrival of tho same company's steamer Tongariro is looked forward to with some interest. We understand that she left Lyttelton on December 31 with a large quantity of wool intended for the February sales, as well as about 13,000 carcases of mutton. If this vessel makes as good steaming home as she did out she may reach Plymouth in 100 days from her departure thenco on the out ward voyage,

THE NAPIER TRAGEDY.

Further Particulars.

[BY TELEGRAPH. —PRESS ASSOCIATION,]

Napier, last night. It appears that the murder of the Edwards family was carried out in a most deliberate and determined manner. Edwards, although conscious, keeps a strict silence, but the ap pearance of the room in which the bodies lay tolls the tale only too truly. Three of tlie four children went to church on Sunday evening, the mother staying at home nursing the baby. On their return they went to bed, and the mother lay down dressed on the bed, waiting for her husband. When he returned, it would seem, from a heap of chips in ono corner, that he took a half-charred log from the fire, and with .his pocket-knife coolly cut one end into tbe shapo of a convenient handle. He must then have stunned his wife and children as thoy lay on the bed, the foreheads of all being out and bruised. The wife's throat was then cut on tho bed. From the enormous quantity of blood in the middle of the floor, on the murderer's trousers, and on a chair, it appears that he lifted the children from tbe bed, and taking them between his knees ono by one, cut their throats ; also, that he placed them again on the bed. Thoir arms are entwined about each other. Probably he then out his own throat, but not deeply. The tragedy must have occurred before midnight. .Early in the morning before daylight he went to tho house of a neigh bouring settler named Plank, and asked far water. Plank says ho had a presenti ment that all was not right, and he re iused the water. W 7hen Edwards went away, Plank followed him with a loaded gun, but soon lost him in tho darkness. Edwards next called at anothor neighbour's named Pike, and there got water. It being dark Pike saw no- blood, but Edwards's manner was so strange that Pike became unoasy, and went and aroused the local constable. They went to Edwards's house, and there discovered the horrible truth. When daylight broke Edwards was found on tho trestles of a high bridge from which he threatened to jump, but he was ulti mately secured with great difficulty. Hq was taken to tho Waipukurau Hospital to have his wounds dressed, and he is not in danger.

Edwards is a man of some education, and a practical engineer. For some years he was chief engineer on one of the coastal steamers, but was discharged for drunkenness. He received remittances from home, his friends being woll connected, and a short time since received £1,000, with whioh he bought land at Ormondville. He was given to drinking, and when drunk was Hko a mad man. Twice he has been charged with being a lunatic, and kept in confinement until the effects of his drinking passed ob it has transpired that when drunk he has more than once severely assaulted his wife, and a short time since ho placed a quantity of gunpowder under his wife's bed and ex ploded it, fortunately without any severe results.
