LIGHT ON THE ABUR TRAGEDY.
The last lettere of Dr. Gregorsen to his family at Home, some portions of which have now been made public, throw a bow and
BI- traordinary ht on the circumstances which led to the ill-fated expedition into the Abor country, remarks the Culonuts Englishman, which
goes on to say-Although Dr. Gregorson dwells for the most part apon the geographical results which Lo Lepel to obtain, for ne civilized has yet wat eyes upon those
being falls. somewhere below Gralong, where the Sanpo planges into the plains, the raterences to Mr. Williamson appear to indicate that the real elject of the expedition was to eater into closer treaty relations with the Abors in view of the ndrases of Chinese infinanco in that direction. It is known that prior to Mr. Williamson joining Dr. Gregorion as Eadiya, he had been touring in the Kham and Mishai country and had been up to Rims, whore he found a Chinese Governor established. Dr. Gregorson describes a photograph in which appear Mr. Williamson, tho Khamti Raja and the Gevorner of that part of Tibet, sitting round a table in a pine forest making history. If there sentences mean anyt thing they wan that Mr. Williamson, in his capacity an Political Officer, was engaged on the Rima side in
indus Sug the tribeston to enter into some
would oxelude treaty with the British, which wort of the possibility of Chinese interference with them. Tho inference is of course strengthened by Dr. Greg ros's slatonerit that since then the Clinoso havo arrivel, and one of their Grst ac b.p.tions was to bury the Governor up to the nook and lease him there for two days for having had the chess to enter into negetintious with the British." But if the Government he consider. od it
necessary for Mr. Williamson to visit the Kamti and Mish country to sow what the Chinge were doing there, they probably con- sidered it still mere necessary that information should be out surd about the working of the Chis nese forward policy south of tipalong.
