TIIE LATEST FOREIGN NEWS. An Englishman's Attempt to Bestore Harmony iu the Cabinet at Cairo. A Scheme Which, E ven If Accepted, Will Be Only Temporary amt Is Sure to End in Failure. I Prince Bismarck’s Reasons for Withdrawing from the Ministry. He Is Growing Old and Has tn Watch Too Many Politicians and Wire-Pullers All Over the World—Cable Notes, EGYPTIAN AFFAIRS. Sir Evelyn Raring Endeavoring to Arrange the Differences. London, April B.—lu the House of Commons Mr. Gladstone stated that the government had not come to any decision regarding the differences between Nubar Pasha, President of the Egyptian Ministry, and Lloyd, Under Secretary of the Interior. Noither of them has resigned. Sir Evelyn Baring has been instructed to try and arrange the differences between Nubar Pasiia and Clifford Lloyd, and try to induce Nubar to retain office by stricter limitation of Lloyd's functions. The officials at Cairo are convinced this is only a temporary policy, and will result in immediate failure. It is reported that Nubar Pasha is willing to accept the arrangement Clifford Lloyd's Unpopularity. Cable Special. Mr, Clifford Lloyd, the present Egyptian under secretary, has apparently reached the end of his string. He was given his present office in reward for his efficiency while resident magistrate in Ireland in convicting Irish Invincibles. In Egypt he has not only succeeded in antagonizing the entire Egyptian Cabinet, but he has brought down upon his head the wrath of a large section of the Tories, with whom he was rather a favorite when he was known as merely a severe judge in Ireland. The Tories now say that the English government having set up the administration of Prime Minister- Nubar Pasha, last January, was responsible for its maintenance and should not have allowed it to be wrecked by the bumptiousness of this young man, who has made it so intolerable, first, for his immediate superior, Sabet Pasha, Minister of the Interior, and now for the Premier, Nubar Pasha, as to force both into resigning. They sympathize thoroughly with Nubar "Pasha, and they say that it will be impossible to find another man so fit to head the Egyptian administration. If. therefore, he finds it impossible to continue in office because of Mr. Lloyd, the latter slrnuld be dis missed. Mr. Lloyd seems also to have made himself intensely unpopular among all classes in Egypt, and loud and frequent demands for his dismissal are made by the natives, l>y -French and Italian resident merchants, and by many Englishmen. BISMARCK'S WITHDRAWAL. The Chancellor's Reasons for Retiring from the Ministry. Berlin, April B.— Bismarck, in a conversation explaining his withdrawal from the Prussian Ministry, is reported to have said: “I am seventy years old. My nerves are in bad condition. I have (not time to be unctuous. The telegraph fearfully multiplies my work. Germany is interested in whatever happens in the capitals of the world, including New York and Washington. The world is a chess-board, and I must watch the moves affecting Germany. It is necessary now to study net only the dominant politicians, hut also the wire pullers and the currents of opinion everywhere, and to act Tapidly upon Information telegraphed in haste. The chancellorship is no sinecure; its duties might overtax a younger man's strength. Without the Emperor's support I could not get through."

Paris, April B.—Dr. Eugene Desprez, a distinguished French surgeon, Free-thinker and Republican, has written a letter in his capacity as surgeon to the Hospital de la Cliarite, strongly denouncing the exclusion of Sisters of Charity from the hospitals.

Lord Tennyson in London. Loudon World. Baron Tennyson on subscribing tho roll wore Lord Coleridge's robes, which were a great deal too large for him, but which lie managed with much deftness. Only six peers were present to witness the ceremony; but then Tennyson is neither a sportsman nor a politician, and is probably unknown by name to most of his new brethren. The new Baron Alfred Lord Tennyson, to be in harness for as short a space of time as possible, put up at tbe Deanery, Westminster. During the past few days many worshipers of the Laureate have paid their respects at the quiet little house in the gray cloisters, and he has been so fully engaged with small, everyday amenities, that he has been unable to seize on tihe spare moments to think out- that sweet "Commemoration Idyl" which Tennysonites looked forward to as forming part of and giving a perpetuity to the ceremonial of his lordship's elevation. Enormous Stocks of Grain in England. London, April B.— The secretary of the Corn Escliange reporte enormous stocks of wheat, barley and maize in London. In the Waterside granaries there are 451,900 quarters more of wheat than at the sumo time last year, and 108.000 quarters less oats.

Berlin, April B.—The Hanover Courier states that the provincial authorities have received instructions prescribing the measures to be taken to prepare for the Kciclistag elections. This indicates that an early dissolution of the Reichstag is intended by tho government. Resignation of Hie Konmaninn Ministry.

Simple Tests for the Purity of Water. The Sanitarium. In suspected potable water for persons who cannot command chemical analysis, the following tests arc recommended as being generally available and reliable: Color. —Fill a bottle made of colorless glass with the water: look through the water at some black object; tbe water sfiould appear pcrfectiy colorless and free from suspended matter. A muddy or turbid appearance indicates the presence of soluble organic matter, or of soluble matter in suspension. It should be “clear as crystal.” Odor. —Empty out some of the water, leaving the bottle half full; cork up the bottle and place it for a few hours in a warm place; shako up the water, remove the cork and critically smell the air contained in the bottle. If it has any smell, and especially if the odor is in the least repulsive, the water should be rejected for domestic use. By heating the water to boiling, an odor is evolved sometimes that otherwise does not appear. Taste.—Water fresh from the well is usually tasteless. even though H may contain a large amount of putrescible organic matter. Water for domestic ueo should be perfectly tasteless, and remain so even after it has been warmed, since warming often develops a taste in watA which is ta.-teles* when cold. If the water, at any time, has a repulsive or even disagreeable taste, it should be rejected. Hoisch s Test for Sewage Contamination. —Tho delicacy of the sense of smell or taste varies greatly in different individuals; one person may fail to detect the foul contamination of a given water, which would be very evident to a person of finer organization. But if the cause of bad smell or taste exists in water, tho injurious pffect on health will remain tho same, whether recognized or not. Moreover, somo water of vary dangerous quality will fail to give any indication by smoll or teste. For these reasons I attach special importance to Heiscb’s test for sewage contamination or the presence of pntrescible organic matter. The test is so simple that any one can use it. Fill a clean pint bottle three-fourths full of the water to be tested, and dissolve in the water a teaspoonful of the purest sugar—loaf or granulated sugar will answer—cork the bottle and place it in a warm place for two days. If in twenty-four to forty-eight hours the water becomes cloudy or muddy, it is unfit for domestic use. If it remains perfectly clear it is probably safe to use. Don't lie uwake nights and cough. Ayer's Cherry Pectoral will relievo the cough and induce a good night's rest.

It was also resolved to put a full State ticket in the field.

Sedalia, April B.—Both Van Horn and Filley arrived in the city this morning, and are bnsy mustering their forces for to-morrow's battle in the State convention. A good many delegates are already here. Mr. Pil ley late this evening, issued au address advising a joint session eariy to-morrow morning of the opposing factions, or the appointment of a committee to recommend conciliator:' measures in the interest of harmony and good order- While there is intense feeling expressed by the various delegations there is, so fax', no indication of any irrecimritable bitterness which would preclude a possible (compromise; yet it is equaliy apparent that underneath this exterior calm there lies a waga izine, which, once ignited by any impru&eut move on either side, would and in sneh an explosion ns would blow the whole convention to atoms. But outside of a few hot-headed and illadvised grantors, everything possible is being done to arrive at peaceable and harmonious unity of action. POLITICAL NOTES.

Tt was the general opinion that it would not be safe for the party to nominate either Blaine, Arthur or Logan; the candiflato must have a better record than any of these.

Danville, Va , April B.— Senator Vance addressed tho citizens hero to-day and said tbe time for flapping the bloody shirt wat passing away since sober-minded, thinking people at the North were beginning to understand the peculiar state of things at the South and to make allowance for apparent impatience of the South- , era people. Aremthern outrage bill would never agaiu be enacted. There never would be another investigation into reputed Southern outrages. The tirncof peace and harmony was near at hand, and when troubles were said to be caused by . colored people it had always been found that mean white scoundrels were at the bottom them. The educated and thinking people were going to rule the country. Delegates to Chicago. St. Lours, April 8. —The Republicans of the Tenth congressional district elected Fred W. Mott and N. H. Weber delegates to the Chicago convention. Both are Filley men.

Wrinkles give nn appearance of age. and usually come on as people get older, or as a consequence of using large quantities of powder, a habit remarkably offensive to men, whatever foolish women may think of it. A little powder to prevent chafing in cold weather, or after wasl-jug when the face or neck have been exposed to the sun, is a very different thing. Just a dust of powder immediately wiped -off teraporarily i-emovcs a greasy look; but it stands to reason that a lavish use of it must fill up tho pores of the skin, and thereby permanently injure the complexion. Wrinkles are very much under personal control. A giri or a youth who indulges in a perpetual knit ling of the brows produces a very ugly wrinkle between the eyebrows, but this may lie entirely removed by forsaking the trick. A habit of half closing the eyes—very common with near sighted persons who do not choose tp wear glasses—produces wrinkles at their outer corners. An ill-tem-pered dropping -of the coiners of tiie mouth brings wrinkles in those positions. No outward application Will ever cure this; the effort must come from strong determination and resolute avoidance of the cause that produces the ugly effect. Living iu a very dirty atmosphere tends to develop and accentuate wrinkles; the grime naturally settles in any little hollows that will receive it, and the longer it stays there the more . difficult it is to remove. Xt may he partially kept out by regularly wearing a veil out of doors, but the best thing is frequent and thorough washing with hot water, andthe appli--cation of a little sweet oil or cold cream tut bedtime. This softens anil smooths tho slcln, hooping it to fill out instead of increasing the tendency to fall ai<-> hollows and trace channels. A little alum or Ollier astringent .lotion applied in the morning does good rather than harm, but if St makes the skin smart it acts as an irritant, and must be avoided. Any puffing of the skin Ss associated with an unhealthy condition of the blood, and ongkt to receive proper modical treatment. People who habitually worry themselves over trifles frequently get wrinkles in them forehead, but persons who cultivate a calm and easy State of mind may escape them for many years.

An Evening’s Entertainment. bettor in Farming World. Every hostess, I am sure, knows what a difficult matter it is sometimes to provide interesting entertainments for her guests, especially when they are many and of a miscellaneous character in regard to age. Let me introduce a “mock auction.” It must he understood that no money is called for, the hostess providing each guest with from fifty to one hundred whitebeans, which are supposed to represent a dollar, and all the bidding is done with them. It will be necessary to provide beforehand the articles to be sold, which should each be wrapped in paper, or so disguised that no one may know what he is bidding for. The auction is much more interesting and the bidding more spirited if each package is found to contain some little thing of trifling value, although some should be of an amusing character. I attended one a short time ago, where the daughter of our hostess was quite an artist; a number of the .parcels were found to contain trifling sketches made by her. So the bidding became quite exciting, each ono hoping to get some specimen of lier handiwork. A sign might be displayed in-some prominent place, saying: ‘•No mutilated beans received.” As everybody generally gets some little souvenir, all are satisfied and usually well pleased with their evening’s amusement. Housekeepers who have what they call “awful bad luck” with the household crockory, are very well pleased with the present craze for odd dishes, as it is next to impossible to spoil a set. The more a rich man's table partakes of tihe appearance of the table in a cheap boardinghouse the mere asthotie it is.
