Itasid that the Japanese soldier had not mach endur ance and could not stand long marches or incle mont weather. As for the cavalry, the Viedo. moski considered it so bad as to be unworthy of consideration. A few days Ister (Oct. 201b) the Novoc Vrempa, according to the Times's corres. pondent, “dealt with the Japanese army a serions spirit, contrasting markedly with the flippant manner in which the Viedo. mosti discussed the same subject a few days. ngo." The writer in the Novce Vremya, cou tinues the correspondent, “ poista cut that the weakest point in the Japanese army is the cavalry, the development of which has been bindered by lack of hores and by want of suitable places for usercise. The war strength of the cavalry does not exceed 99 squadrons, that is, twelve or thirteen thousand men, the Russian cavalry being seven times as strong. A very favourable judgment is passed as the infantry. Above all the other arms," says the
writer,
rank the infuntry, the morni qualities of whom are very high, though their physical qualities me on a- very much lower level. In waru cenutcies the Japanese infantryman has displayed extraordinary powers of endurance, bat te would hardly be likely to do so in a cold climate. Of the artillery little is known, and altogether, in the opinion of this writer, it is difficult to form an estimate of an army that has never stood the test of serious war,"
Of course it is not possible to predict what qualities of endurance Japanese soldiers would show in a cord climate. Probably

He den. cribes briefly the operations that led to the pacification and the prog ess after pacification Ho says incidentally: "The fluancial relations between India proper and the Province of Burma are most uusatisfactory to the latter. They are too coin licated to discuss in this article, but the gist of the matter in thin, that a large portion of the taxes paid by the Barmane is withdrawn from the country by the Indian Government sud expended in India proper. It is as though a third of the public revenue of the Philippines was paid into the treasury at Washington aud expended in the United States." He describes in detail the village systems of Upper and
the verdict of the writer in the Novos Vremya is unconsciously influenced by a thought this bis own countrymen are conspicuously innred to cold. It has to be remembered, however, in this context that the Japanese surprised us all in 1895-6 by their winter campaigns in Monoburia and Shantung. Previously to that record most people held the same view as that now advanced by the Russian journalist: held It simply because, Japan being a comparatively warm ountry, it sesmed natural to expect that her inbabitants would suffer severely if exposed to cold. But they did not seem to suffer in Manchuria and Shantung. However, the truth is that the Japanese soldier will never emerge from the rank of unknown quantities until he has crossed bayonets with a Western foo. The question of the cavalry is less obscure, Japan's weakness in that arm has long bean apparont; weakness, that is to say, according to the old standards when weight and speed were prime essentials, for the purposes of a crashing charge. The charge, however, may be said to have passed out of the roll of cavalry functions No body of horsemen could live to ride within lanca's length of a company of It infantry armed with magazine, rifles. may be, therefore, that the light Japanese trooper on his hardy, easily led and cheaply procured pony will serve for all the modern functions of a cavalrymaz, namely for sconting, for reconnoitsleg, and for escorting. What wo wonder, in the experience of the Rossang themselves in Manchuria? Probably they find Chinose ponies more serviceable than Europeau horses. But at all events it is pretty certain that the Japanese cavalry is not numerous enough.

official corruption. The great defect in the Indian civil service, from the standpoint of recent criticism, is that the officials are falling out of touch with the people because the insatiable appetite of the secretariats for statistical roturus chains the administrators to thoir doske when they should be gat in their districts. I am inclined to the opinion that those who blame the Indian Government for its increasing rigidity, for its gradual saerities of individus ooutuct in the interests of mechanical precision, overlook an important element in the situation The declared policy of the Ladian Government is to educate the natives, to make them think for themselves, to induce the people at large to take an interest in the moral and material progress of their country, to change, inaud over since, the Chartered Bank of India, fact, the Oriental disposition in its two Australia and China had and still has business most rigid characteristics-the hatred of interests of great value in these Islands; that divided between the change and the abhorrence of civil or political said intercats responsibility. Now whether this be a wise or a branches or agencies of wild back at Manija, foolish policy, it is quite clear that the Heile and Cebu individuality of the people cannot be developed if the Government is to retain that paternal character which it inherited from the Company, Under the old system the Government did the governing, and the people, having been used to the arrangement for thousands of years, were contant that it should be so.

The requirements of aliqualte prevented any. thing in the nature of a Press-interview with Count Lamsdorff doring bis stay in Paris. But M. Marcel Holin reports an interesting conversation at Darmstadt with M. Alexandro Harinsky, private secretary to the Russian Foreign Minister. M. Savinsky said Conut Lamsdorf would shortly have an interview with Count von Bulow. The object of the Russian Government being "general pease,” it was quite natural that, after M. Dal cassé, the German Foreign Minister should also be seen. With regard to events in Mace. donia, France and Russis, he addal, were in perfect agreement as to the reforms to be required of the Porto. The German Govern ment, as well as the others, had given its entire adhesion to the Austro-Russian Noto, and there was nothing to lead one to suppose that Germany would not accompany her moral support with material assistance of a most pronounced character, With regard to the Far East, M. Savinsky thought that time. England, the ally of Japan, had no interest in Beving pence disturbed. "I can safely "narure M. JACQUES LEBAUDY. you," he added, "that the Japanese Govern-
