It is not for us to a say what may be the worth and fighting unit of the Asistio Company. We are nonvinced that every care bas boon taken with the artillery training of the Pathans who compose the bulk of that corps, The broad fact remains that while the four com panies Aciatia Artillery at Hongkong are to stand, that company stationed at Singapore ia to be reduced, that is to say, abolished.

Our contemporary takes the opportunity of reminding ils readers of the powerlessness of Crown Colonies, and counsels the termination of the dispute. The Colony, it says, is only 4 possession of the Crown to be governed by the Imperial Ministry of the day, Ana Crown Colony, it has no power to make u bargain with the Imperial Govora. meat, no power to refuse to make a bargain, and no power to keep or to break an alleged bargain. The Colony, in a word, has no self-governing powers, and the Bill ander discussion is nothing but a way of sypuaring | is 1—, to olone a family dispute, an between a tole mat parent and a child who is a calor, it proferable that such family jars should end as gracefully as possible; therefore, we do not agree with the people who desire to make Thursday « grout “military contri- butionisid-day."
