IN ADVANCE OF THE MAIL,
The British Army, To the House of Lords, during July, Lord Lansdowne, Secretary of State for War, introduced his amended Militia Conscription Bill. Lord Lansdowne explained that the Bill made provision for strengthening the militia, Dwhen required, by means of the ballot. It also provided that Her Majesty's male subjects in the United Kingdom between the ages of 18 and 35 year, would be subject to such ballot. His Lordship pointed out that the great activity in the labour market was yearly increasing the dificulty experienced by the War Office of recruiting
militia, frant which branch of the service the regular army was largely strengthened Personally, he disliked compul- sion in the matter of military service, and he assured the House that conscription, would only be adopted when no other way was available for providing for the country's

ENGLISHMEN OR HELOTS
The following extracts are from the despat ches of Sir Alfred Milner the British High Commissioner at South-Africa
"The spectacle of thousands of British sub- jects kept permanently in the position of halots, constantly chafing under undoubted grievances, and calling vainly to Her Majesty's Govern. ment for redress, does steadily undermine the influence and reputation of Great Britain and respect for the British Government."
Abusy industrial community is not naturally prone to political unrest. But they bear the chief banden, of taxation they constantly feel in their business, and daily lives the effect of chaotic local legislation and of incompetent and unsympathetic administrating; they have many grievances, but they believe all this could be gradually removed if they had only a fair share of political power. This is the meaning of their vehement demand for en- safety.fmnchisement. Moreover, they are mostly British subjects, accustomed to a free system and equal rights; they feel deeply the personal subiection to the ruling caste which owes its indignity involved in a position of permanent wealth and power to their exertions. political turmoil in the Transvaal Republic will never end till the permanent Uitlander population is admitted to a share in the Govern.

THE KISSING BUG IN SAN FRANCISCO
SAN FRANCISCO, July 14th. The kissing bug has made its appearance in San Francisco, at least, that is the opinion of tic doctors at the Harbor Recelving Hospital, who treated H. V. Ness of 121 Post street yes. terday afternoon for a painful swelling en his right hand. Ness did not bring with him his winged assailant, for he hurried from its vicinity with all possible speed. He is sure, however, that it was an insect, and the doctors, judging from the character of the wound and the rather menger description of the bug that Ness in his agitation could furnish, say that it could have been nothing less than the redoubtable creature kriown to scientists as the Reduvid' Melanolestes Picipes of the Heteropterous Hemiptera. When Doctor Dorr told Ness the scientific name of the insect the patient nearly swooned from fright and he could only be soothed by the assurance that it was all a terrible mistake about the beast's identity and that he was sufering merely from the bite of and walked away from the hospital unaided. #tarantula. At that Ness, regained his spirits

He tried to shake it off, but the bloodthirsty filled harpoon, which it carries slung betwen its front legs, and thus gained a firm hold. The pain was as if a thousand redhot seedles had struck into the flesh. Ness then disattached the bug by rasping his hand on the edge of a table and lost no time in seeking medical advice.
