MR BALFOUR'S PAMPHLET.
A telegram from Allahabad, dated Sep- tember 17, says :—A special London tele- gram to the Pioneer, dated 17th instant, says Mr Balfour's pamphlet is the chief topic of discussion.
The Times says it is clear the Premier's sympathies are with Mr Chamberlain. Whether or not he has convinced all the members of his adminis- tration it is impossible to suppose that he will not meet Parliament and defend this opinion.
The Standard says the Premier has pase- ed from the stage of the opened mind' to a fixed belief that a tariff framed only for rovenue must no longer dominate our policy,
The Daily Telegraph believes that a con. siderable stop has been taken in the direction of a goal whither all tras Imperialists look.
The Morning Post says the pamphlet eets out problems that cannot be shirked.
The Daily Chronicle says the pamphlet confirms the rumours that the Cabinet haa decided to drop preferential tariffe in favour of retaliation, while the Daily News con siders it impossible that the trade members of the Government can continue to hold office under a protectionist Premier.

In opening the meeting the Chairman said that the coming season was one that was of peculiar interest, as a yacht had been designed by one of the local amateurs, to compete against the crack designer of Southampton, and he took that opportunity of wishing the new yacht every success. The launch of the yacht would take place next Tuesday, and the designer was Colonel Brown. Another yacht was also being built by Mr 0. A. Tomes, from a design by Mr Arthur Payne, and judging from this some very interesting sport would be looked for in the Championship events. There were no other new craft building, but the next season's racing would, he

Mr John Hastings, Hon Treasurer, pre- sented the accounts, which he said, showed a credit balance on the year's transactions. The year was oponed with a balanco of 8106, and closed with $134.

Information was received in the Colony this morning to the effect that the Govern- of the Straits Settlements had prohibited importation of the British and Mexican dollars as from the 2nd instant.
In a telegram on the 21st instant Sing- special correspondent apore stated that eighteen lakhs of now dollars were due to arrive on October 4, and the presumption now is that the P, and 0. mail-steamer had arrived at Singapore yesterday with the coin from the Bombay mint, and that further shipments would be coming on by subsequent steamers in sufficient quantities to meet the requirements of the local market. ·
Since the above was written we have re- ceived a telegram from our Singapore Correspondent announcing that the Straits dollar had been made the legal tender and that the import of British and Mexican 2dollars had been prohibited.

It appears that accused, who was a mem ber of the Bombay Infantry, was usually sent to the bank by Lieut. Graham to get drafts to send away on regimental business. In September last, accused suggested that as the rate of exchange was high, it was a good opportunity to get a draft and pay an outstanding account in India.

bank instead. On returning from Stone outter's Island, the accused met the man going to the bank with the money, and,
to take it for Cooper it is alleged, offered him, as he understood the routine better than the second man did. Not suspect ing anything, as he knew if Bhawaui Singh had been available he would have been sent to the bank, the money was han- ded over, and the accused apparently went to the bank. As he did not return with the draft, inquiries wore instituted, and the police informed."

"You may be right about the Waldersee showed himself a great general in every way. Look at the way he stopped the British and the Russians from fighting about that small piece of railway."
**Please tell me about it," I said. "Well, you know the British and Rus- sians both wanted pussession of the railway and each was determined that the other should not have it. I saw them at it my- self-for the whole length of the line there was a Russian soldier at one end of each sleeper and an Indian soldier at the other It was a end, glaring at one another. striking sight; when the Russian stood easy the Indian stood easy; when the Russian shouldered arms the Indian shouldered It was absolutely a case arms; and so on. of touch and go and it was only Waldersee's generalship that saved the situation. He promptly informed both sides that there must be no fighting: but in case fighting was unavoidable he informed them that the side which first assumed would have to fight the aggressive not only the other side but the whole of the German Contingent into the bargain. Somehow or other, neither side was keen to begin, and the dispute was finally settled without any fighting. But I think that if Waldersee had done nothing else, this alone would have entitled him to rank as a great general,” *

"The man I admired most," said Jones, "was a little Japanese General. I ought to explain." he said to me, "that I got permission to accompany the expedition by pretending I was a war correspondent--by the way," he added to the others, "I'm told that in future a correspondent will have to deposit a thousand pounds as se- curity before he is allowed to accompany a British column.
