Some 16,000 British residents in the Transvaal have signed a petition setting forth their grievances under President Krager's rule. At a trial ballot of Republican Senators Casimir-Periev received 114 votes for the Presidency, Dupny IS and Bris3on 6. A similar meeting of Democratic Senators terminated in gross disorder amid cries of " Five Perier." Two members resorted to blows. Edisou, the well-known inventor, fell down a flight of steps in New York, and received internal injuries. China is declining to join the intervention in Corea. The Japanese troops have occupied Serul, the capital. The King is prisoner. M. Casimir-Pener has been elected President, receiving 451 votes out of 833. M. Brisson obtained 195 votes ; M. Dupuy, 97 ; U. Ferry, 59 ; and M. Arg'o, 27. M. CasimirPerier's election is generally popular. He asks M. Dupuy, to retain office until the late President Carnot's funeral has taken place. Then M. Burdeau will form a new Cabinet. It was the entreaties of his mother that induced M. CasiniirPerier to stand. The general feeling in Berlin is one of gratification at M. CasimirPerier's election.
