Even on the day of ■ the execution thp sheriff delayed the fatal moment, while Captain Black, one of the counsel in the case, was at Springfield pleading with the Governor, and it was not until he had .received a telegraphic despatch from the' Chief Magistrate that he saw no necessity for further c.ommunation with hinvcii the subject, and he must perform his duty, that thb sheriff knew there was no longer hope for mercy. Thee was so little Sympathy for the unfortunate men that the Governor is generally censured even for the questionable mercy extended to Schwab and Eieldeii; bub it is under stood that a Close review of the evidence in their cases justified the clemency. Ijfg^Lpndori, press generally expressed approval of the verdict in the anarchist trials, and the " Times" spoke of tbo stern ness of thp Americans in dealing with tho present offenders against law and order as a lesson for Ireland and Gladstone. Tbe skme paper confessed that it did hot agree with th' 6 o^ihioii of the American legal journals that the decision i_ a vindication of the supremacy of the law, «nd ib con demns the tedious succession of appeals Frciti court to court, which allowed a con siderable volume of sentiment to accumu late in favour of the prisoners. The " Pall Mall Gazette " opened its' columns to an ex pression of sympathy with the Anarchists ; but, editorially, it has riot gone further than to hint that the sentence was one of vengeance.

The interment took place on the 13th, after what one of the Chicago papers calls the most wonderful, but decorous, demon strations ever seen in the city. Milwau'Eie Avenue, the great German thoroughfare, whero, most of the dead bodies lay, pre sented a strange spectacle all the rnorriing. 16 i« estimated that 100,000 foreigners thronged the streets during ehe procession, which started for the depot, oh the way to the graveyard, about noon, with bands in Prussian uniform playing dirges. Most of those in line were members of difi'erentTurn vereins, with a small body of Internation alists. What with speeches and cere lhoriies at the cemetery, the iiineral did not break-up till it was dark, and only theri by Captain Black stopping an Anarchist speech by the editor of the " Arbeiter Zeitungj" as the people were being wrought up to a high pitch, by the oratory and the surrounding's. Tlie papers congratulated the public that the- afiair passed off cis qOietly as it did, but insist that the officials ought to have given the bodies direct inter mint.

Balfour in Birmingham.

The Chief Secretary for Ireland attended the' first annual meeting of the Midland Conservative Union at Birmingham, No vember 4th. Ho was accompanied by a de tective arid the chief of the Leamington police. At Birmingham armed detectives were posted at the depot to watch for sus picious characters. Balfour, during tlie day, gave assurances that the Government was resolved to proceed boldly and firmly \__i tho Work they had trtkert in hand in Ireland, and bring it to a good conclusion. At tho meeting in the Town Hall he said that at the next session of Parlia ment, England and Scotland would get a fair share of legislation. Still the first question would remain tlie foremost problem in the mind of everyone who took an interest in the fortunes of his country. The question was not, whether Ireland was to be governed tinder her own or an English Parlianderitj but whether she was to bb governed at all'in accordance with a. yof those principles which had hitherto regu lated the action of every civilised state in tho world. The remainder of his speech was principally devoted to the defence of the:. ction of the police at Mitchellstown, and attacks On Gladstone's policy.

The Canadian Fisheries Dispute.

Interest is excited in London by the proposal of Edward Atkinson for settling the fisheries question. He suggests that the United States purchase Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince. Edward's Island on the basis of tho proportion of the Canadian debt, which is equal to £50 a-hdad for the population or £50;000,000 in all. This, he says, wdu)d bring to the United States a territory equal in produc tive power to New York and Pennsylvania. Atkinson claims that his proposal has been favourably received in the United States and Canada. -: _ '__ _ Hon* J dseph Chamberlain, the British Fisheries Commissioner, was waited on in Washington, D.C., November 18th by about twenty newsp. per men. He was under stood to say that the purpose' of the Com mission was to make an entirely new treaty, the existing treaty between Canada and the United States having proved unsatisfactory; but further than this,he was non-committal. He thought it unlikely that the subject of a commercial' union' with Canada would come before the Commission in any waj'. There was scarcely a shadow of a doubt that any arrangement agreed to by the British Cdm linssioiiers wotdd be held binding by their GoVernnient.

A Crisis in India.
