Sir William .Lockllart’s forces will commence the advance on Tirah. the summer headquarters of the Af- ridis. and the Orazais. from Peshawur. on Friday next, moving in three col- umns. Sir William Lockhart and Ma- jor-General Lord Metlluen have al- ready arrived at Kohat. The mullahs of Tirah, on hearing of the advance contemplated, began their preparations to oppose it, but it is now also reported that they are prepared to offer terms on. behalf of the Afrldis, the Mohinunds, and the Malilkand tribesmen. The Ameer of Afghanistan has pub- lished art Cabal his reply _t9 the reti- tion of the Afridis who solicited his as- sistance against the British. He ro- minds them that they have never be- fore complained of British conduct. but. on the contrary. acquiesced fully in the Afghan alliance With England, He quotes from the Koran on the sa- cred duty of fulfilling _ agreements, which, he says, the British have kept faithfully, and, in CODClLISlOD. he de- clines to assist them out of trouble Which they have brought upon them- selves. adding, "to do so would bring ignominy upon myself and my people. The Ameer has also issued through- out Afghanistan a l‘Oilg proclamation, dated August 13th. and entitled A clear declaration and warning to all Afghans." This is much to the, same effect as the reply to the petition of the Afridis.

" South Africa has taken a back seat. Everybody of high and low degree. from Duchesses to cab drivers, are talk- ing about the Klondike. and they read every scrap otheny that is published. I expect to see a great rush thither next spring from Europe. " Lady Augusta Fane is one of those who have the fever. and she intends l to make the trip to Klondike entirely through Canada. No doubt the-re will be others. I heard the other day of l a banker who was thinking seriously of leaving a lucrative business to try his fortunes in the great gold fields." The Lieutenant Governor of the Northwest Provinces of British 001â€" umbia, while spending a month in England was besieged on all sides by capitalists and fortune hunters who were anxious to hear the details of the wonderful] country. A dinner was given in his honor. and when curiosity was expressed as to what a typical Klondiker was like the Lieutenant Governor brought out a six footer of fine proportions. who did not look the worse for hardship. but ’ who in the presence of the distinguish- led poisouages blushed like a school boy. He was Frank Boucher, who made |his pile and had returned to England Ion a visit. I HLARDSHIPS OF THE \VINTER.

A despatmh from London sayszâ€"In addition to the proposition to make the voltmteers liable for service abroad in case of war, the Government wil'l introduce an Army Reserve billl dur- ing the next session of Parliament. According to this measure, it is pro- pooed to enlist 5,000 reservists at an extra rate of pay. thus forming a re- liable force which can be drawn upon at any time for use in the small wars. The British Government is also con- sidering the adoption of_ an infernal bullet, invented in Birmingham. This bullet is made of lead. and instead of being conical, the top level and has a cup-like cavity. On entering flesh this bullet acts likeapunch. cutting a clean. round hole which does not close. The bullet begins to expand immedi- ately after entering. and after it has travelled six inches it producesa jag- ged hole three or four inches in diaâ€" meter.

"I think that the coming hardships at Dawson City have been greatly ex- aggeratet.” he replied, "although it is probable that they will have atough l enough time of it; and may be on very Ishort rations. Compared with Dawson. loity, however, the situation allong the I overland route to the Yukon will proâ€" bably be terrible. for, in spite of reâ€" peated warnings, many went. in late and they willl not get much beyond the passes. Anticipating such an Ointâ€" ergency ,the Canadian government has allrezidy sent, as many supplies as pos- sible to Lake Tagish, and they will be forwarded in either direction, as the demand requires. Police have been sta- tioned along the way for prompt. com- munication. " I suppose that them will be between five thousand and six thousand peo- ple at Dawson City this winter. It will be very difficullt, of course, to get any supplies up the Yukon to relieve the miners. but. i understand the North moulcris and a host of others. American Trading and Transportation Company and other trading concerns will do their best to get goods through. at whatever cost. Supplies have becn accumulator] at St. Michael for this purpose. i realize the difficulty of carrying out such a programme. but if there should be a crisis there will be nothing else. to do. BIG EXPLORATION COMPANY. ” Few people have any conception of I the immense territory covered by these. lgold bearing streams. The Yukon is lonly one of many rivers. It is only two hundred miles long. while the Lewes River. which is believed to be equally rich. is five or six hundred miles long, and there are numerous unâ€" exulored streams which will be devel- oped as rapidly as the, facilities for reaching the country are furnished. "The Canadian government. as well as English capitalists. is carefully con- sidering the opening up of the coun~ try. and within a very short time some action will be taken.

Several port~ ages are required. and the establish- ment of irannnlys or railroads. “ Another route is freon Revalstoko on the thinadian Pacific. north through ‘l‘ete Jaune puss. thence to Francis- Laike and to the Lewes River and the Yukon district.

The only delay now is due to the choice of a route. Three or four are under consideration. The most probable route is from Port \Vranglc, on the Pacific Coast. to Stickine Riv- er. a region which is open to the Bri- tish as well as to the pimple of the United States under the \l'ashington treaty. " This river is navigable to Telegraph Creek. the water being from four to five feet deep. Then there is astretch of country 145 miles long to Lake Tes- lin, which presents no engineering dif- firlllties. and where a railroad can be comiructed at moderate cost. That done, the writer stretches emptying in- to the Yukon. which are all navigable, could be utilized as far as Dawson City and ii- other l‘ortivn'. of the Can- adian territory.
