girl.at Princeton not long

ago sought her father, a miserable, drunken wreck of a once noble man, and found him leaning against the bar of a whisky shop, beside a negro, to both of whom the proprietor of the saloon was handing glasses of liquor. The girl seized the glasses and hurled one at the head of the vender of the ardent. It hit and staggered him. Before he could recover she let him have the other on the cranium, which brought: him to the floor. Springing to his feet he drew a revolver and wai about to shoot the daughter, when the father^ whose decaying manhood began to assert itself, placed himself before the muzzle of the pistol and begged the infuriated man to desist.

LONDON, Sept. 20.—It is reported from well-informed Bources of authority that the government of England and France, after diplomatic consultation came to the conclusion tha't 'the status quo of government and executive relations existing be tween Turkey and Egypt must be maintained.

It has been also concluded between the same two leading powers that there shall be no interference from this side between Spain and the United States on the subjqct matters of the Oubaft revolution and American diplomacy iu Madrid.

LONDOK,. Sept. 21.—The Paris correspondent of the Times writes as follows: The note of the American Minister to the Spanish government, in regard to Cuba, varies both in its tone and conclusions from the diplomatic communications between the Spanish Minister at Washington and the government of tbe United States. The -diplomatic experience of General Siokles is timid, and PRpbably insufficient to enable him to* rightly estimate the value and effdct of bis words. Doubtless h«, is much surprised at tbe excitement they have created, and it will be difficult for his government to approve of thorn. No pretext exists for recognising liie IKiban ^insurrection, Ibicti does not hold a single town position, arid owes its prolongation to the action of tbe •climate on its opponents, and the facilities afforded to the insurgents in a thinjy peopled country.

The appointment of General Sickles as Minister to Spain was greatly crfticurd, and has not been sanctioued by the Senate. That body will do itself ere lit by refuting to ctffifirm the appointment of a m»n who has made so bud a first appearnnce in diplointicy.

A letter from Madrid to thq St,»' d*fd s&ys Gener&f 1n bwM'Jti^iti&iates that 1I1 u. government at Wasnington might, under the force of public opinion, be compelled to reco^niz* the Cuban insurgent'1. Ho reminds the Spanish goVernraeut of tho n001

wilh which lhe

UnitSii S ates have hitherto pessir^ad their refpect for intertiati.inal law, and of their unwillingness to rmb-trrass Spain. Altogether^ theinote is not of *0 alarming nature, but tho ret'.cance of the government in allowing the people to remain in ig no ran co of its contenU, justifies the violent articles WLiilti have appeared in the Spanish papers for tbe past few days.

Tne Pail Mall Gazstte reviews the idea of a Chinese policy put forth by Mr. Brown, late Americao minister to China. It says tliVsnm of bi? argutwnt tbe opening of new markets to Christian trades. In point of fact there is nothing for-. eigners tions of interpretation. A truer account would be that Ike forme* forced the Chi cese to grant privileges, which the latter ptji^ri^g to withdraw seek to e^adp.—

and tbe Chinese are merely ques-

ing that he abandons his convent and ceases henceforth to preach in the church of Notre Dame of Paris. As a reason for this step he declares he cannot obey the orders of tbe HoJy See. He protests before Ue Pope and Coancil against the doctrines and practices of the Romish Church, which are not in accordance with the principles of Christianity.

The bodies of six murdered persons, a woman and five children, have been found in a field near Paris. As yet the police have discovered no trace of the assassins r/lPrioee Metternich was received by the ffmperor yesterday.

Biron Beuat has not yet arrived at Paris. Mr. Burlingame and the Chinese Embassy will set out for Stockholm to. morrow. They propose to return in six weeks, when they go to Berlin.

Reports from Brazilian sources represent that the defeat of Lopez was a complete route, and that tho struggle was ended.

LaPalrie, on the other hatu), bas different accounts, whicb, while acknowledging that 'the Paraguayans have suffered a reverse, maintain that Lopez is still able and dermined to^continue the war-

Tbe Epoca says Gen. Sickles has withdrawn his note. The statement is not generally believed.

ST.

W. Warren, J. Cavender and E. W. Rowse.
