DEATH OF THE GENERAL OF

'E regret to record the which took place on day, of Father Anderledy, General of the Company of Jesus death, I Tues-I

Antonius Anderledy was bom on June 3, 18 19 , at Brieg, in the Canton of Wallis, or Valais. In 1838 he entered the Order of the Jesuits, and studied philosophy and theology at Rome and Freiburg. When, in 1847, the Jesuits were expelled from the latter city, Anderledy went to Piedmont, and, in the following year,being againjexpelled, to North America, where he w^as appointed parish priest at Green Bay. In 18 5 1 he returned to Germany, and for two years directed the Jesuit Mission in Bavaria. At the end of that time he became Rector of the Jesuit Theological College at Cologne. He was then successively Rector of the similar institution at Paderborn, Professor of Moral Theology at Maria-Laach, Rector at Maria-Laach, and, m 1870, Assistant to the Jesuit-General Beckx, at Rome. He distinguished himself so much in this post by his ability and zeal, that, in 1883, he was elected Vicar-General by the General Congre-j gation of the Order at Florence, and in the following yearf succeeded Father Beckx in the supreme office,

FUNERAL OF THE DUKE OF CLARENCE.

On Wednesday the Duke of Clarence! wTas buried at St. George’s, Windsor. It| was not until half-past three o’clock that the Royal train arrived. There was no

“ Funeral March.” As the procession passed, the troops ¡which had lined the streets reversed arms, the bells tolled mournfully, and minute guns were fired in the Long Walk. On |reacbing the Castle yard the procession moved between the lines of the Marine Infantry and the Naval detachment, the bands, numbering 160 performers, filed to one side on the ¡green behind the blue-jackets, while the procession, headed now by the gun carriage with the flower-covered coffin, ¡passed straight on through the gates to the Horseshoe ¡Cloisters, from which there was a specially reserved entrance for the Royal mourners to the chapel. When secluded ¡from the view of the public, the coffin was removed from the gun-carriage and carried to the West entrance, where it was received by the leading official members of the Royal Household, including the Lord Chamberlain, the Earl of Mount Edgcumbe, Lord Arthur Hill, and Lord Walter Gordon Lennox, the pall-bearers walking on either side, and the Princess following. Meamvhile, the crowd outside did not at once disperse, but remained to watch the re-appearance of the mourners at the close of the service.

THE NEWKHEDIVE.

The arrival of the young Khedive at landing of Alexandria from his school in Vienna was accompanied by all the pomp and state the authorities, British and Egyptian, could devise. At eight o’clock on Saturday morning the Austrian war-vessel, with the young Sovereign on Board, was sighted ¡off the bay, and a little later was greeted by a salute from the British squadron, and then ceremoniously escorted into port. The Khedive then entered the state barge, and was jslowly rowed ashore, and, on landing, was welcomed by full ¡military honours by the British and Egyptian forces. He then passed straight to the palace, and held an informal reception in thè throne-room. He is described as a young man of singularly dignified bearing, and his reception by ¡the native population wTas as enthusiastic as could be desired, and it is at least something that the unreal pageant [passed off pleasantly and without any incident which could mar its momentary impressiveness.

Another section of visitors assembled on the top of the Guard Room. The Castle yard was occupied by about 200 blue-jackets, together with a company of the Royal Marine Light Infantry. Some time before the train arrived the late Duke’s charger was led down to the railway station. Shortly afterwards, the Corporation of Windsor, preceded by their officer bearing the crapecovered mace, marched slowly up to St. George’s Chapel They were soon followed by the First Lord of the Admiralty, the the Cabinet, cocked hats.
