The article presents socio-political updates of the world, as of May 15, 1879. U.S. England cannot be said to have been very deeply interested in the memorial performances at Stratford-on-Avon, England, which have been going on during the past week. They did not rise above the level of a provincial and local celebration. A munificent family, whose energy and business qualities have earned for the town in which dramatist William Shakespeare was born and died a reputation for good ale which Shakespeare would have been the last to despise, and an enterprising anti energetic country woman of yours, have been the chief agents in the festivities of the past few days. According to another update, the socialist revolutionary Louis-Auguste Blanqui question in France is taking serious proportions. A little more than three weeks ago the organs of the Left Center side of the Ministry were unable to see a speck of any kind on the horizon.
