THE INDIAN. FAMINE.
We must not rest yet in our efforts to incresse the Famine Relief Fund. A letter lately, ré-- ceived in the Colony will show how serious thic-| - distress 'is in India, and how much money is needed to alleviate the great distress which has befallen our fellow-subjects. "The Punjab and the Bombay Presidency," says the writer, "are in an awful state. I can't describe to you the desolation and misery that one gazes on hourly, famine and death everywhere. A Jeypore I saw numberless deat people lying in the streets and on the side of the road-not one drop of rain for two years and a half. I saw one morning thousands of people coming in to be given their portion of rice; eight lbs. to last a family of five for four days is the rate the Government has been obliged to fix..... I saw a couple of miserable creatures to whom I could give some cappers, before I could reach They the carriage I was mobbed. sprung up from nowhere, the must ghastly emaciated, diseased creatures all round me shouting Bouckes meaning hungry. They tore at me and fought with each other to get atine, I pity the officials trying to cope- with the heavy adds against them. A common sight is to see guards of soldiers over trains and bullock carts taking rice, and plague camps all along the line.... There is nothing cise except dust.

TIENTSIN, March 9th. Matters have improved slightly since I sent y ny Jengthy wire re the Boxers. Very decided pressure was brought to hear by the Diplomatic Body at the eleventh hour, and an Edict has been issued also a proclamation by the Viceroy, which will check the outward and visible signs of the very ungraceful spirit around us now, but that it will efectually quiet no sane person supposes. The Ministers have made a grievous mistake in letting the CR hatch. While it was an egs it might have been squashed; now it is a chicken it may be temporarily cooped up, but that will not prevent its growth or its subsequently producing other oggs. Two years ago the Boxers were only a funny "name" now they are a force and a power. The proclamation has arrested the drilling protein, but they know as will as we do that the Government heart is not in the prohibi tion, and as soon as foreign attention is diverted they will get to work again.
The Edia dhich the proclamation is lased runs somewhat as follows

Daily papers received recently from the United States and from Manila convey any thing but a roseate view of the real siltiation in the Philippines, the facts briefly and oft times vaguely stated, despite the strict censorship in Manila, being wholly at variance with the assumption that, because President McKinley has intimated his intention to cause the new Philippine Commission to issue a proclamation in the near future to the unfortunate inhabitants of the islands granting annesty for all who own allegiance to the purchased sovereignty of the archipelago and declaring as outlaws and bandits all who refuse to submit to the authority of the United States, the insurrection is tically at an end-tisat war is actually "over." Here are a few extmets from El Progresso and. It would seem that the new Taft Commission other Manila contemporaries which throw light will experience great difficulty in establishing on affairs -
civil government in the islands for it is reported from several of the chief provinces that the natives decline to accept office of any kind at the hands of the American authorities. It is said too that the natives are destroying their houses, villages and towns and crops and flee ing to the mountains in thousands. They seem determined that the invaders shall rule, if at all, only over the ashes of the tower and over vast uninhabited plains and valleys,
A special telegram from Manila to the W. P. World dated 15th February contains the fol- lowing surprising (surprising that is to those who would fain have it that the war is "over"). item of war news -----

In an engagement a few days ago in the Sazod range (north Cebu) between Americans and Filipinos, Captain Smith, of the 19th Infantry, was dangerously wounded and succumbed to his injuries in a few hours. On account of this the flags at all Government offices and American commercial houses were hoisted at half-mnet, a token of the sympthy and the esteem in which the gallant Captain was held by all who bad the pleasure to know. him.
In Talamban on 5th instanta division of fifty Filipinos quacked the Americans holding this towa, which is in the province of Cebu. The division was under command of Colonel Pedro del Rozario and assaulted the American position -at night.
A company of the 39th Infantry while es carting 55 sick men to Manila was attacked on 13th Febranty by Filipinos, who had to retreat after a hot engagement leaving 3 killed and I wounded on field.

This province, also, is not "pacified."

On the 13th the column of Colonellard had a hot engage. ment with the Filipinos near the town of Alaminus, - The natives were 200 strong and were repulsed, lasing 30 prisoners and 20 rifles.
