THE TUGELA RIVER.
The name Tugela means "fear," and it has received the name from the rapidity with which it will come down in flond, A thunderstorm
among the mountains in which it rises will raise the river many feet in a few minutes, and it rises 40 feet in a single night. The current is- at all times extremely swift, and a comparatively, alight rise, is sufficient to make the drift im passable, whilst a heavy rise will sweep away any temporary bridge that may have been
erected.
THE COINAGE OF SOVEREIGNS IN INDIA.
The Allahabad Primer writes: "The coin. age of Indian sovereigns has not yet begun, and it-cannot-take-place-until-a-proclamation has been issued at home, making the Bombay. mint a branch of the royal mint. There is, we understand, plenty of Indian gold available in Bombay for coinage purposes, as Government accepted the offer made by the big mines in Mysore to take their output.

Igy, intelligence, and sletermination applied at the right moment are able to overcome most of the problems of life. It would be better for the country and for Ministers themselves if members of the Cabinet frankly wneil that they had made mistakes, pleaded extenuating circumstances, and pledged themselves to ser- ious efforts a reforming all that bas proved wanting or may yet prové wanting when tried by the ordeal of war. If they did so there would not be any disposition, we feel sure, to scrutinizing tou narrowly the sufficiency of the pleas put for ward in mitigation of judgment. The nation is only to gengrotis pa the fauts of its servants ghere those faults are due to mere carelessness a to perverse adherence to antiquated, routine.

Mr. Balfour's sarcessive speeches at Man- chester, by complètesty ignoring the fiduciary relation in which the Government stand to the country, afford the strongest possible confirmat to Lord Charles Bereford's sintement that sq fir as the services are concomed, na such thing as Ministerial responsibility exists. The course of the war is a clear proof that somebody is to blame. The fault lies sosnewhere between the generals, the system, and the Cabinet.
Mr. Ralfour deprecales criticisan on the first, chau- pions the second and affirms that the third have io need of repentance.

PLAYING SPOOK.-
M.
The Paris correspondent of the Daily Tele graph is responsible for the following Crodier, a retired merchant of Paris, much given to consulting spirits in einergencies, has been tricked in a rather amusing manner by an amateur ghost who resided in rooms con- tiguous to those of the ex-business man. The latter lately told friends and acquaintances that he had a melancholy message from Spiritland to the effect that his son, who traded in Tong- King; had been murdered by pirates. The dis honest neighbour, hearing this, knocked one night at M. Condiers wall and announced that he was a spirit who wanted money for masses to be said in a certain church for the repose of the soul of the retired merchant's son. A sum of 160 francs was required, and the phantom asked M. Cordier to be good enough to put it} under the first chair on the left side of the Virgin's altar in the Church of Saint Sulpice. It appears
that M. Cordier deposited several donations for the ghost under the chair, and the
money was regularly taken away. In the meantime the son supposed to be dead came home from Tong-King, unharmed sind unhurt. The young man had; in fact
no adventures with pirates, and was engaged in very prosaic business matters during his stay in the Far East The son lay a trap on 15th instant for the ghost, who was invited by Cordier senior to walk into his fat in the dark. No sooner had the spirit entered the room than he received a blow on the head from a big stick brandished by the traveller from Tong King. The guilty phantom fled, but was pursued down the stairs and intd the street by father and son. The spirit proved to be a very substantial adventurer who was recognised by the police as a person, much wanted for acts of Bwiddling of a diversified, and in some instances of a very ingenious
