LATE TELEGRAMS,

LONDON, March 21st. During the debate on Uganda last night, Mr. Balfour accused Mr. Gladstone of minimising the assumces given by him.

During the debate on the address Mr. Cham. berlain anid he believed the nation was resolved not to relinquish the advantages secured by the surrender of Hallgoland and the foreign treaties, Both Mr. Ballour and Mr. Chamberlain said England's honor was pledged to the retention of Uganda.

PARIS, March arst.

The trial for bribing and receiving bribes in connection with the Panama Canal Compsey was closed to-day and the following sentences were passed M. Lesseps, one years' imprison. ment; Mr. Balbaut, five years and a Eng of three quarters of 1 million francs; the rest of the accu ed acquitted.'

presently be able to follow them through their journey in the pages of a handsome tomo.

We have also received visita from other down. country folk; among them the French Military Attaché at Peking, who, also with his wife, paid a visit to the famous Yangtze Gorges. This is the third party of visitors to this grand scenery daring the last fortnight, and one only wonders that there are not more. These visitors have made but one mistake; they are somewhat early. Nature has rot yet got all her work in on the hill and monnisin side, in fact has done little more than put on the priming cost. Yosit is not hard to believe that in the far off some day, when steamers run regularly to Ichang in con- nection with those on the lower river, when some enterprising gentlemen, or the steamer com- pankes, keep house boals here, and cheap return tickets are issued from Shanghai, when every! body has grown "dog-tired" of Japan and Chefoo, thea Shanghai will rend her injured digestions and over-expanded livers to the Yangtze Gorges, to be repaired and contracted. Then there will be a sight to be enjoyed, and a story to tell, by grateful young men.

The inhabitants of Ichang have just com menced their spelog visits to the graves of their ancestors, and families consisting of anywhere from a score upwards, chiefly females, deck themselves act in gaudy clothes, and, headed by screeching reed instruments and cymbals, sally forth daily to perform this duty. One cannot but admire the sentiment that prompts the performance of these ceremonies; but it renders all the more detestable the sacrilegious spirit that animates and leads them to the destruction of tombstones at heads of Christian graves, such a has just taken place at the old burying ground

of a missionary has been maliciously broken and thrown down. Here is a case in which the new. officials might show their good intentions by bringing the culprits to Justice, if they are in good earnest in their professions to protect.

CALCUTTA, March 23rd.-

The Financial Statement was presented, to Council to-day. The accounts for 1891-92 closed with a surplus of Rx. 467,000; the revised estimate for 1892-93 show a deficit of Rs. 1,081,000; the budget for 1893-94 show a deficit of R. 1,595,100. Regarding the loss by exchange, it is explained that, although the Government was most unwilling to budget for the deficit, it was considered inexpedient to take mea mures for the restoration of the financial equili- bulum until the Home Government have received a report of Lord Herschell's Committee and have given a decision on the Indian Cur rency Question. It is shown that any measures which could be adopted now must be inadequate or unnecessary, and it is stated that the decision on the currency question cannot be much longer delayed. Sir D." Barbour appeals to all who have taken any part in the dispute on the currency question to put aside personal feeling, and to accept whatever decision may now be given, and to endeavour loyally to carry it into effect. He is willing to take this course himself, though he still prefers settlement by laternational agreement, and hopes, if possible, to secure it at diffenities he repeats his former opinion that some future time. Notwithstanding the present the resources of India are adequate to her wants, but on condition that the measures of the Government of India were taken in good time and regulated by prudence and forethought and carried into effect with strict regard to economy. It is expected that a loan of three crores will be Eraised in India this year, but no pledge is given.
