Still, even in such, an event, the position of England in the China Bens is not one which need couse grave tensi ness. The naval squadron of England

certainly superior to that of Rassin in these waters, and the Russian Beet would have considerable difficulty in conling and refitting south of Lasare Incoe, the scene of operations would be chiefly confined to Afghanistan ; aec na the loyalty of this nativos of India may be pretty safely depended" on, the holding of our Indian possessions is believed by good military authorities to be a task quite within our mesos. Certainly the conquest of India is not the ensy mtter which soce pessimist writers are so fond of assorting it to be. it would appear, therefore, frora a calm survey of the present political situation that, although certain Heme journalists

are fond of informing the world that Eugluud has been dethroned, that she lias no longer either the desire or the power to maintai her proud position L.,ing civilised ratiLEB, and that she is isolated and struided in the European concert, there is little or no ground for such assertions. There is life, and life very good permanent kind, in the

affairs have of lite absorbed too much of the attention of statesmen, to the ex- elusion of more important forsiga and colonial considerations, the spirit which made the England of the past will con- tinue to animate the Eaglend of the
