THE STATE OF THE RAND IN DECEMBER LAST.

- The Advertiser publishes an interesting in terview with Mr Gustave Halle, the Editor of The Transtian Critic, who was invited by the Boer Government to choose between asking for a passport or being escorted across the lorder. Mr. Hatle reports the Rand and Johannesburg generally quiet and orderly, and states that there were 4,300 residential permits inasued in the whole district, including Borksburg and Krugersdorp, this figure includes Boer Officials of all rauks, general population of all national ities and the Blacks." The Officials, he states, have carried on the Government of the town since the war started, excellently, but there is a great deal going on that is unjustifiable by in ternational law, or by the laws of civilized war- fare. Hle

l in narrates the methods employed commandeering, and gives a list of the prin. cipal fums dealt with, and states that certain Officials and hangers on of the Government are seizing the opportunity of feathering their nests, and even question Englishmen as to the probability of their being kept on under the British Administration at the end of the war. The food supply at the beginning of the war is stated to have been very limited, rice, maize, sago and other produce being unobtain able from wholesale importers, whilst the Gover nment seemed to be getting very anxious as to its supplies, the wives and families of the Boer Burghers being put on ratious, and, by the time the narrator left Jobannesburg, the rations originally granted had been reduced by half The arrangements for distributing fand ruinngst the Commandoes at the front, especially around being very deficient, Ladysmith are stated- and instances-are given of Burghers being ten days without regular supplies and dependent anly on their friends.

THE NEW IRISH JUDGE,

Mr. Dunbar Barton, the Irish Solicitor General, has been raised to the seat on the Bench rendered encant by the death of Mr. Justice O'Brien. Our Irisis contributor writes. that the appointment has given, on the whole, satisfaction to the Bar. Mr. Justice Barton's practice since he took silk in 1889 was never large, and his experience of the different phrases of the ordinary work of a Queen's Counsel was small as compared with that of half a dozen of his contemporaries who were eligible for the post. However, his industry. and carefulness will amply make up for any deficiencies in experience, and his urbanity and geniality of tempérament will make life more iolerable for many a harrassed practitioner.

When he lectured on the law of contmeis and lerts in Kingssing some ten years ago. he acquired a reputation there for clearness, accuracy, and thoroughness which will long survive, and it is cestain that he will display similar qualities in the higher sphere of labour to which he is now called, He was called to. the Bar in 1980, and has been mised to the Bench after a shorter period of practice than in the case of any other Irish judge, except Mr. Justice Ross, Lord Justice Fitzh bon, and Mr. Justice Gibson, who were practis- ing at Bar for periods of seventeen, eighteen, and eighteen years respectively.-The Lau Times.

A HINT FOR OUR JUDGES.

The Irish Lord Chief Baron (Palles) re- cently made some observations an the in fluence of a judge's charge on the verdict which are entitled to great weight, having regard to the extended experience of the Chief Baron in a career of more than six-and- twenty years duration on the Beach. The Chief Baron said he had the very gravest doubt whether a jury ever understand the charge of a Judge in a complicated ease. Great confusion at times arose from the multiplicity of questions submitted to a jury. The practice of putting voluminous questions to jurics did not exist five-and-twenty years ago. The judge used simply to tell the jury that if they believed this fact and that fact they should find for the plain

ff, and, if otherwise, they should find for the defendant.

Three men are accused, and only three, and of these one will probably be pardoned. The. threa are Mr. Chamberlain, Lord Lansdowne and Lord Wolseley. The public feel that Mr. Chamberlain, as the responsible Minister for the Colonics, ought to have. understood hetter Mrs. E. S. than other men the strength and determination Gruui, Mrs. of the Boer Republics, ought to have based his Creen, Robert action upon a more serious complaint than the Gans, S.

that the Boers preparations were a menace Grunberg. T. to the paramount lower--and that he showed Gronne, E. weakness of mental grasp in believing that Pre-Gotz, W. sident Kruger would yield and President Stern Grider, R. H. would at the tast moment shrink from his fellow Hesketh, S. B. President's side. Such a belief showed a want Hoony, C. of imagination amounting to incompetence, and Hutchison, G. W. it is of that, as well as of a certain rashness in Hall, J. Andrew. his speeches on foreign affairs, that Mr. Chan Halcrlet, H, berlain is accused. He may be pardoned, as Hope, F. C. we have said, because the party may think that Hee, Ah it requires his influence and his energy but lie Hill, Rev. J. R. will never recover full confidece, and will never, Hall, W. therefore become first Minister of the Crown. Holt, G. C.

The charge against Lord Lansdowne and W.-- Lord Wolseley is of a slight by different kind.
