hopeless enthusiast in his profession, his restless, fidgetty, Inquisitive nature was continually entangling him in the meshes of some new and totally impossible system of drill he wished to bring out. Day after day every avaliable man would he wanted for drill at hours they had always been permitted to regard as their own if off duty. All the time-honoured institutions peculiar to the Battalion were subjected to a peddling, meddlesome Investigation by this energetic officer, and revised and improved so much that they entirely disappeared. Any privileges the men had previously enjoyed were la like manner improved so much as to be transformed into sources of continual annoyance and mortification. The internal arrangements of the barrack rooms in particular received special attention, weeks being spent in experi. ments directed to the discovery of the best method of arranging the spare articles of clothing on the shelves provided for that purpose. These experiments resulted in martial, if not complate, fallure, however, as their author appeared to be unable to decide what effect it would bave in a European crisis if a part of biennial trousers were placed on top of a pair of annual trousers, or vice versa; or if the efficiency of the British Army would be more effectually secured by placing last year's tunic over this year's, or this year's tunle aver last year's. Then haviny succeeded in partially settling, say, the latter point, he would be horrified and disgusted to find in the very next room he entered two men with only one tunic each. Any arrangement whatever in such a case as this would involve a want of symmetry and uniformity in appearance that could not, in the interests of the Service, and the safety of the Empire be tolerated for a moment. But how to meet the difficulty i Certainly all the men with only one tunle each might be collected in rooms by themselves, or only that the regulations prohibited it, a second tunic might be issued pending their becoming entitled to it, or, only that the House Guard people would be sure to raise some stupid objections to such a course, they might be dis charged the service for the good of the system. The tremendous difficulties bristling round these paints were only equalled by the obstacles he encountered in carrying out a series of experimenta with the prisoners and others daily being brought before him for a multitude of reasons more or less reasonable. Given an equal num ber of men to "tell off" on two successive days bis observations would show that when he he. gan with the victim on the extreme right of the line he could dispose of precisely twenty-five cases in seventy Eve seconds, while if he tackled the miscreant on the extreme left of the line he will get no farther. for the next ten minutes in Consequence of his having to listen to an impetuous apology for a few hours' absencs in which Batteress Path, his aunt's friend's sister, the Canterbury Music Hall, and an engine. driving friend of his become so hopelessly mixed with each other that the bewildered officer is glad to compromise matters by remanding the Case for the commanding officer, who will probably call in to Barracks about the dinner hour if he has nothing else on hand requling

Thirdly--Nothing looks more funny than your simple enumeration of the different parties to be held responsible for the failure of the case, ranging from the officials of the Police Depart- ment to the highest man in authority in this colony. How efficiently money must work for its fortunate owner! But I think, Mr. Editor, that instead of the jurors' giving, way to the Judge, you seem to have given way freely to your personal spite and prejudice, if spite and prejudice you had.

Fourthly Who is Mr. Syed Mohamed Alsagoff? He is a man of substantial capital; be contributes by law to the prosperity of this Settlement not on a small scale; he helps by profession not merely to improve but to perfume the trade of this settlement; and lastly, he is our follow British subject, and has ever been loyal to the British flag; whereas the Gorskis are, by the way they have been dragging out their lives, foreigners of no character and who feel neither loyalty nor concern for the British Crown; their very presence among us pollates the door of Innocence of Singapore; they came here with scarcely anything, and how did they maintain themselves? And these are the sort of persons that have so greatly aroused popular and racial feeling?

If Marie Gorski gave her consent and lived with Mr. Alsagoff, that is her look-out, and I don't see why there should be so much ill feeling sgainst him merely on that account

in conclusion, Chief Justice O'Malley in directing the jury to give a verdict of not guilty, conscientiously knew what he was about, and is not for a moment thought to have been who is toflcenced, by the money of one admitted on all hands to be our most valuable fellow citizen and subject. I understand your meaning in the editorial in question to be in that direction.

COLONIAL GOVERNORS.

An ex-Governor contributes an interesting paper to the National Reviews for Julie sting the title of "His Excellency, the Governor." The identity of the retired colonial representative of Her Majesty who thus unburdens himself of his official experiences and philosophic reflections upon the "detles of Governor-Australian Governors particularly-ls, says the European Mail, a somewhat slippery matter upon which to speculate. The absence of classical references and quotations, as well as the omission of the tale of the seven; pence-bali-penny in the Queensland Treasury at once removes suspicion from the ever-green Sir George Bowen, while Sir Arthur Gordon could hardly, from his rather limited Antipodean gubernato rial experience, have written such an article. Suspicion may well linger about the name of Sir Frederick Weld, however. But the man

It may have been only a coincidence without point er value, but it may, nevertheless, be remarked that just about this time the com- manding officer took occasion on parade one day to animadvert severely upon the despicable baseness and vulgarity of people who would write anonymous letters to General Officers Commanding, not only exaggerating the real and energy an excellent officer on the staff of the Battalion but totally ignoring the officer in command of it. He concluded by apresling to the men to sign their names to all anonymous letters they wrote and send them to him, assuring them at the same time both of redress of their grievance if it existed, and immunity from punishment for making the complaint whether It was justified or not, which immunity is secured to the men by even higher authority than the Officer Commanding a regiment, powerful for good or lil though he be

We need have no such scruples, as there is no chance of Mr. Low's opinions publicly reaching Singapore in time to influence the course of astico, and they certainly would not have that effect even if Governor, they did so; therefore, as we have given, the Strails Timer views, itis only fair to also publish
