Madagascar.—A Few Weeks Since (Says A . ...
Madagascar . —A few weeks since ( says a . ^ temporary ) , accounts were received in this country that Several foreigners had been sent out of the island of Madagascar , and that a number of native Christiana had been put to ' death . It appears by intelligence just received that the Christians were not the only sufferers , but that numbers of the heathens suffered also ; nor did the Christians suffer on account of their Christianity , but rather because , in common with others , they had unhappily become in some way implicated in political movements affecting the existing Government of the country . . . ___ ¦ „ , _ , „ who
Colonel Ouseley . —This unhappy gentleman , recently made some wild statements at the Marlboroughstreet police-court , has now been again placed under confinement . He contrived to escape from the persons who had the charge of him at his lodgings , but was taken into custody by the police on account of his strange conduct in the streets . After a long search his friends found him in a workhouse at the east-end of London , in a pauper dress . The Duke of Cambridge on Army Matters . — At the anniversary dinner , on Wednesday evening , of tbe Hospital for Diseases of the Chest , the Duke of Cambridge , who was in the chair , made some remarks , in which , after denying most emphatically a report that he did not properly appreciate Sir Colin Campbell , he
referred to the question of the sanitary condition of the army . It had been said that the Horse Guards was indifferent to the soldier ' s comfort ; but that was not the case . The very contrary was the fact . " But he did not hold the purse-strings of the nation ; and , though he might represent a certain state of facts which generally were admitted , he was met by the answer , that it might be all very true and very desirable , but the Government had no money . Well , he could not coin money , and , if the feeling of the country was that much should and much ought to be done , it was for the country to give the money , or otherwise the desire to improve the condition of the army could not be carried out . He felt very strongly on this point , and , as he had not had
an earlier opportunity of giving utterance to the sentiments that impressed him , he trusted that they would excuse him if he gave vent to remarks which were not in strict accordance -with charitable meetings of this description . All he could say was , that the very improvements which had been introduced into the army had caused the barrack accommodation of the army to be curtailed . They had had libraries and readingrooms , but it was a great mistake to suppose that they had added to , because in truth they had been taken out of , the barrack accommodation of the soldier . That had been done because it was a cheaper method , apparently , and the men had been crowded up in their rooms to meet the feeling of the age . "

London , Friday Evening , March 19 . The fluctuations have not been heavy in tho Funds : not more than half per cent , since last week . There have boon largo purohases for money and account , but the aouotrui state of continental politics , and the very frail tenure of the present Government to olllcc , create an uneasy fooling . Tho Indian Loan will probably bo increased to ton millions , and tho statements of tho Chancellor of tho Exchequer , with amount of tho quarter ' s rovonuo , arc not expected to bo very nourishing . Slnoo November , trade throughout [ the country has ao languished that tho rovonuo must have largely diminished , and it is possible at the rate of twontyilvo to thirty per cent But thoro is one fact that cannot be done away with—that tho Bank coffers are fast amountinn to twenty millions—that niorenntllo men must soon hair win content
risk their hoards , for two ana a por . cone , no trader , and that tho uost securities will bo bought up by degrees , than the moro doubtful , mid finally tho wildest ana moat dangerous projects will 1 ) 0 launched Intooxiatonoo , and bo crowded with adventurers , hoisting tholr Hag of" nothing risk nothing have . " Tho Foreign Funds remain steady , Buenos-Ayros , Itws-Hlnns . Brazilians , and Peruvians , arc in demand . Turkish 'Sirpor" 06 ntrbonds - aro-nbout"l 02 rb « t !

Mining shares are well supported in dividend paying mines . Miscellaneous shares are dull . American securities are firm . Canada Trunk and Great Western still low , owing to the poor traffics .
