FRANCE AND CONVICTS IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC.

[BY CABLE-COPYRIGHT.]

[press association.]

London, March 6. A blue-book just issued on the recidivisto question shows that the English Govern ment informed Franco that they would re gard it as an unfriendly act if the number of convicts in Now Caledonia were increased, and repeatedly urged that they should be sent olsowhoro. M. Perry, in replying early in January, suggestod that the display of colonial feel ing on tho question was prompted by a thirst for annexation, to which Lord Lyons replied, stating that tho fooling of the colo nies against tho recidiviste scheme was perfectly genuine, and rapidly growing stronger. M. Ferry stated that the recidivistos now being sent to New Caledonia were not many, and that they were not positive criminals, and wore strictly prohibited from leaving tho islands. Most of the French criminals were now sent to Cayenne. He, however, refused to give any pledge that no more should bo sent to New Caledonia, but said he would pay reasonable respect to the foolings of the Australian colonists in tho matter, and the Government of New Caledonia would bo instructed to apply for tho extradition of all oscaped convicts.

Th Great Autumn Handicaps.

The following woi/hts were declared on Saturday night for tho Great Autumn Handicap, run on Easter Monday •—

St. Jacob's Oil Invincible.

go the Editor of Evenins Star.) Dear Sir,-I wish to add my testimony to the efficacy of the great Gorman remedy, St. Jacob's Oil. Your oolumns have contained, from time to time, expressions of gratitude from personsof kn°w, n __e ßPeotability, aDd having satisfied my "vT r ls e -onuuMHioss of tho cures effected, I obtained a bottle, scarcely hoping it would suo oeod in relieving mo. For the past seven months I havo suffered severely from a pain ful attack of sciatica, which, In spito of the most able treatment on the part of my medi cal advisor, continued to hold its own In my system. My sleep at last began to be affected, and my whole system very much reducod. The most careful treatmont failed to give me relief, and I then applied nearly every advoftise remedy. The Bciatica was principally located in my left thigh, and the pain at times was most oxcruciating. In spito of tho most thorough applications, and tho great est care and attention on my part, I ob tained no appreciable relief, and at last, as » forlorn hope, I determined to apply St. Jacobs- Oil, aad from that timo the pain began to diminish. My sleep soon returned, and cac_ application afforded me relief. At first I re garded tho cessation from pain as only a temporary ono, scarcely daring to hopu that tho oure was comploto; but I hay« gratefully to acknowledge that I am new free from pain—in fact, a man again. I must confess that I tried tlio Oil in abso lute despair. I had had no sleop for threo'or four nights previously, and my system was very low. The succoss. howovor, is ooraplete, and I again tender my grateful acknowledgments, to tho proprietors of tho Oil, and tihall ever continue to rocommend it to every sufferer who comes hln ,r,a_ go of m F influence. What medical skill failed to do St. Jacob's Oil effoctcd, and I regard it as the greatest boon of the ago. I am, doar Sir, Yours faithfully, _ __ -- . John Less. Ashbourne, Mudgco, November 12,1883.
