CHAMBERLAIN WAS PRESENT. First Business Done Under the New Premier. London, July 21.1â€"The Premier, A. J. Balfour, presided toâ€"day in the Forâ€" cigno Office at the first Cabinet meetâ€" ing of the new Administration. The volonial Secretary, Joseph Chamberâ€" lain, was sufficiently recovered from the effects of the cab accident to be able to attend, though he discarded his hansom in favor of a more luxurâ€" lous carriage. He was pale, and wore a soft felt hat. Otherwisge he showed no signs of his injuries. e The meeting of the Cabinet gave fresh impetus to the reconstruction reports. One of these is the suggesâ€" tion that the Duke of Marliborough wilt sueceed Lord Curzon of Kedleâ€" ston as Vieeroy of India. But there ie not the least possibility of any such appointment. It appears very doubtâ€" ful if Lord Curzon will come home beâ€" fore the expiration of his term of ofâ€" fice. As a matter of fact there is no appointment which could be offered him, except the Foreign Oifice, which would be a promotion from the Viceâ€" royalty of India, and there is no inâ€" dication that Lord Lansdowne hbas any intention of retiring. Under no circumstances, bhowever, would the Duke of Mariborough be given such an important post as India, though he might possibly succeed Earl Cadoâ€" gan as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. All suggestions in regard to appointâ€" ments are still of a highly tentative character. BULLER IN THE GOMMONS. no paralle! in British history.

Ir 1417 a marble top was put on the old tower, and in 1517 it was crownâ€" ed with the figure of an angel nearly @ixteen feet in height. _ The logetta or vestibule on the east éide of the campanile was ecrected Pillars and Piles Rotten and Subsoil Deteriorated. a Madonna and Child, with St. John in terra cotta, also by Sansovino. The tower was always open, but no one was permitted to enter alone. A lone traveller, however, was permitâ€" ted to engage a bystander to enter the tower with him. The ascent was made up a winding inclined plane that had thirtyâ€"eight bends in it. At the top was @#tationed a fire watchâ€" man, who always carried a telescope. The view from the tower top emâ€" braced the whole city, the lagoon, the Alps, and part of the Adriatic. From the tower, in the great days of the Venetian Republic, the first glimpge of homeâ€"coming war vessels was seen dand signalled.
