That Was a Conqust, Given Egypt At Hounslow yesterday there was a remarkable scene when the Fourth Hussars left by the 9:4.3 train for Southampton f en route for India. A detachment of 400 men, in full inarching order, and under the command of Colonel Bamsey, proceeded from Hounslow Barracks to the station where they were awaited by an immense crowd of friends, cnicfly females. Among the latter were 14 brides of only a weeks experience ol marrige life, and these were in a most distressed condition, the poor women crowding together and cliuging with the fondest affection to their husbands. The solders quickly entrained, and lifter the last good-by- s had been spoken the train steamed out of the station leaving the disconsolate brides weeping hysterically in a heap on the platform. The private were married during the week without the consent of the Colonel, and their wives were therefore not entitled to accompany them. The fascination exercised over the fair sex by members of the cloth is illustrated afresh by a remarkable dispute at Santa Marina, in Abruzzi, Italy, which is reported by Dalziel. The priest of the village, named Palerme, received an order transfering him to another village, but he had made himself such a favorite with the ladies of his parish that they absolutely rerefused to allow him to leave the place. Tlie Mayor, at the head of tli Carabineers, intervened, in order to force the women to release the priest, whom they had surrounded, but they held firmly to each other, and the soldiers had to charge them in order to get them away. One woman was killed on the spot by a gunshot aud several others were injured- Finally the was literally dragged from their midst and escorted by the carabineers out of the village. Seventeen of the women were arrested, Westminster Gazette. 1-- 1 To England. Eleven of the 13 French ships of Jho line had been taken or destroy 9d, and two of the four frigates. It was not a victoryjit was a conquest. So wrote Nelson regarding it. It is unnecessary here to speak of the titles and rewards which were showered on the victor. It is of more real interest to consider the true significance of the victory, the sensa in which it could be said -- In England to be a conquest, we have too much accustomed ourselves to look upon it merely as the most br.ll iant of tea lights, and in France it has been spoken of as a reverse indeed, but one which cannot cloud the splendor of the battle of the Pyramids. None the less it was the onquest of Egypt; it was the isolation an l virtual imprisonment of the French army. Bonaparte understood this from t' a first, and afier avaiu and hopeless campaign inSyria hopeless against the power which commanded the communication by sea l.o made an ignominious fight, leaving Richer to get the army out of the mess in wnich lie had put it. Nelson, too understood it, and wrote on Tlie French army is August 11: in a scrape. The inhabitants will allow nothing to pass by land, nor II. N, by waler. Their army is wr b ling with the flux, and n.t a thousand men will ever return to And some mouths later, Europe. The March 22, 1799, he wrote: Ambassador of Bonaparte lias been interested by Troabriege on his way to Constantinople, and aim ng other articles of his instructions is an oiler to enter on terms for his qi i ting Egypt with his army. This offer 's what I have long expeelel the glorious battb of the Nile would prod ice; bat it was my determination from that moment never, ifl could help it, to permit a single Frenchman to quite lo Egypt they went with Egypt own their consent, and there they shall remain while Nelson commands the detached squadron.

An elevation of 60 feet at the outlet of Lake Erie would bring the rocky f.oor of the channel as high as the Chicago divide, and an elevation of 70 feet would completely divert the drainage. This would require 5,000 to 6,000 years at the estimated rate of terrestrial elevation. Knowledge, London. s ELY BROTHELS, 6G Warren St., New York City. Rev.
