LE CERCLE FRANCAIS.
'At tho weekly meeting of the Frenoh Club, Mr. J. H. Chapman read an interesting paper entitled "Les Etats Calkaniques," in which the three different aspects—political, racial, and religious—which contribute to the. continual turmoil of that stormy corner of Europe wore rapidly but very clearly presented. Tfeo curious anomalies and conflicting interests which render the prospects of a permanent peace so remote wero well exemplified in tlio speaker's concluding remarks, wherein he pointed out that tho Balkan Peninsula consists of six States variously governed and peopled by no fewer than fen different races, speaking altogether six distinct languages, and having nine different religions, a hearty voto of thanks was accorded Mr. Chapman for his lecture. Miss Rowley contributed a piano solo. '
