The chief difficulty in making the ascent is the height, 29.002 ft, above sea level. The Duke of the Abruzzi made an attempt some years ago to ascend K2 which is 28,278 ft. He found it impossible to ascend the actual peak itself, but he climbed to a height of 24,000 ft. on a neigh

IN ENGLAND.
Among the advertisers for ** *ap- pointments" in the Timer last week says Truth, was an Austrian general, sixty-five years of age and pensioned before the war, who, owing to the dissolation of the Empire," is seeking a position of trust in England. Most of the other advertisers were British ex-officers, and a lady correspondent asks whether I do not consider it disgraceful that after. fighting for their country they should now have to fight one of the late enemy for a job. Well, it does not strike me in that way, but rather as pathetic that this Austrian yeteran of sixty-five should fondly imagine that there is any prospect of employment for a man of his age and nationality in this country.
