to the interesting conclusion that Great Britain intonds to make an end of Afghanistan as a buffer Etato,' and that Lord Kitchener has this task immediately in front of him. England, according to this authority, has already massed in the Punjab 35,000 troops, and she has a reserve of three corps of 70,000 meu,

The dispositions for attacking the Khante have been taken. Afghanistan had a regu. lar army of $7,000 infantry, 7,000 cavalry, and 360 guns. The Afghan irregular

reserve is about equally numerous. The regular army is badly trained and discip lined; the irregular forces have practically no training or discipline. The Amcer's | finances aṛo at a very low obl, and his authority has been shaken by internal dis sensions. Consequently, if left to its own dofensivo

Afgh»nistan must

resources,

submit to the overwhelming power of it aggressive' suzerain. The Central Asian Khanate has now a very different task to face to that out of which it came success- fully in 1840 and in 1885. The only hope of the Afghan is Russia. This country aleno can saveits Eastern neighbour from complete absorption by British India When Russia formerly proposed to make her frontier in Central Asia cotorminous with British India the British Govern. ments, Conservative and Liberal alike, scouted the idea. It now pleases England to abandon its old principle of a buffer State; it may just as well please Russia to conserve that arrangement. Such is the inmediate prospect in the Middle East according to the quidnunes of Moscow.
