An Indian paper writes:We are accustomed to extraordinary statomate in rerunalar printe regarding the offvot of British rule on the pro- aperity of India; but a Jhelum paper has beaten the record. Impressed by the fact that wheatN prioss have gone up in the Panjab within the last for months, the writer comes to the ounola. sion that this risa is due to the export trade in whent. After this brilliant aperen regarding woonomic ezusa and effect we are somewhat bet
·ter preparol for the assertion that before the export trade in wheat famines were askupwa. and that famines aro, therefore, directly attri butable to railways Evidently the ralers of Indin, with their gigantic railway schomas and Fouine Insurance Foods, have been wandering in socnomic darkuess. We should like to hear the Jhelum writer's opinion on the disastrona effect of roads and rivers on the prosperity of the districts through which they pass.

Here is a curios anecdote as to the possible derivation of the monosyllabic title Mr. Rider Haggard gave his popular romazon. When tha author of "She' was a boy, its seems that the Haggard nursery reckoned amongst its belong- inge a vory-ansient and lattɔred wooden doll. which had been handed down by a former gone- ration, and was regarded, ugly as it was, with pocallar &Reotlan by the girls of the family. The doll, which had lost its eyes in the course of time, was known to all the children as "She" thia namo baring boon bestowed, it is uid, by a faithful old nurse in the family's employ. Granted that, theso details are tena Me. Rider Haggard's implacable critics have another aplon did chance of overwhelming him with a new sharge of plagiarism, since it now appeare that the title of his book is not original. "Mr. Rider Haggard's brother, by the way, is our consul af Tamatave, and it is quite on the cards that some of the very onrious castors and traditions of Madagascar will be turned to account by the anther of King Solomon's Mians in a coming story.
"Housemaid's knes" has long held a re- sagaired-and-benonrabia place among the which flesh is heir to honourable, deasaKO, AS we know,
Who aweeps a door as for Rod's law Msion that and the action fine.

The claims that are being put forward by Franch subjects for componsation for kisses, or fancied logies, in consequence of the British occupation of Burmah ago magst of them anaply very amusing. We read of one man demanding a couple of lakba bocanse, having read that Bur mah was a good field for French commercial enterprise, he came to the sauntry only to Inge this minimum amount of prospective profit by the advent of the English Army, A fair Parisian interested in some bogus railway sobema, which never had any existence but en paper, claims three fakha, aut compensation, we presume for the splendid dividends she is now debarred from earning A third claimant asks for twe lakhs "on the ground,” writes a Manda. lay sorrespondent, "that he had intended to gain that som by applying tim ex-King and Queon with goods; and in proof of the reasonableneAr of his demand, and to show that he was likely to Rucceed in gaining the sum claimed be alleges that he eres sold to the ex-Queen Sospaya-Lat soms silks on which he made 300 per cont. pro- fit!" We-carcely think that mich hard čak will be realised cut of modest, roquests such as thesa Kat there are a number of gannine claima for indemnities, and probably sim amounting. to about thirty, lakha will be required to satisfy thom. Tho salo of the loot and publie lands will, however, go far towards waking up the amount.
The intelligent foreigner has some warrant, it appears for sticking to his belief that John Ball is in the habit of "selling my vife at Smif- foll.” At least, if not at Smithfield, at some other arts scattered over the kingdom. Not gak..... only that, ofther, but, even in these days of ad sunted vinoution, there are Britons who regard the transaction as perfectly tegal and not in the least shameful. The latest case of the sort came into court at Barnley the other day, when B-well-to-do Weaver was charged with deserting his wife and three children. He admitted the soft impeachment at once, bat urged that inas- mzch as he had sold the whole family to, an- other man before the alleged desertion, Łe was noquitted of all responsibility for their main- Fosbo
Stagba tenance. It was nothing to kiss whether the purchaser provided for their wants; the law had better see to that. For himself, he had duly received three halfpenos, the amount of the purchase money, and there is interest in the affair bagan and ended. That the British po palation should contain a 'calfons brate of this sors would, by itself, afferd little matter for sar prise.
