General Roberts. the third in command of the British force which is invading the Ameer‘s domains. and therefore a person whose aote should be authoritative and ofli- ciel, is reported to have announced to the tribes in the valley 0! the Itiver Khurum that hereafter they must consider themselves subjects of Queen Victoria. This means. if the report is true, the annexation of the valley which stretches from the Afghan bor- der tor a distance of about one hundred miles. and would extend the British East Indian territory to within some sixty miles of Oabul. 0n the military map of Afghani- stan it also appears that from the upper end of the ' Khurum Valley there stretches a wide pass to Jellalabnd, fifty miles inside of the Khyber Pass. and therefore rendering the latter untenable as a strategic point of Afghan defence. This declaration of General Roberts_ie pertinent, as showing that England intends to make a more important use of her victory than the humiliation of the Ameer. She means.il she can, to dismantle the Afghan frontier that lies on the side of British India, so that future Ameers may respect British strength at least as much as they do that 0! Russia. The reported step 0! the British may also be the first stage of a policy that looks toward the possession oi. all the border passes between India and Afghanistan. which, once in British hands and well lortified. would be a formidable barrier to Russian ambition. abomin- Logs In Nevada.

The Glasgow flank Ild the Propoeed Lottery. The Scotsman (New York), says -â€"" Con- siderable special pleading is seeing the light in the Scottish papers on the question of organizing a grand lottery scheme for the relief oi the Glasgow Bank shareholders. It has been proposed to issue 6,000,000 tickets at £1 each. end to offer money prizes aggre- gating £3,000,000 in value. There is no question but that the object is a good one, but for the sake oi the good name of Scotland we hope the proposal will get no iarther than a ; proposal. The shareholders have shown themselves brave and honest, and that repu- tation is dear to their countrymen abroad. A lottery scheme for a charitable object. worthy though it may be, is no better than one for individual gain and the debauchery oi morale , which has always followed the one just as surely iollows the other. It is not without‘ good reason that most governments have prohibited public lotteries by law and there can be no valid reason why the rule should be reversed. The weight oi public opinion in Scotland seems to be against the scheme, and we trust it will be discarded." At the tunnel meeting of the American Sooiel Science Auooietion. to he held on the 8th 0!

[its Lordship made an exhauetive renew a! the condition of Eng- land'e trade and the obataelee which stood in the way of its revival. He showed how the increased ability of other nations to manufacture for themselves was constantly diminishing the market for English goods. and how diiiicult it would be for England to keep on paying large sums or money in re- turn ior articles 0! food which she was com- pelled to purchase from America and other countries. The only remedy. his Lordship said,.which suggested itsell to his mind after long and anxious reflection. was whole- sale emigration to America and Australia. and he urged this with vreat earnestness.

At Bridgeport, in Connecticut. walking in a hot and narrow roomwithout the spur oi competition, with a bad track. and without training. Campena was reported to have surpassed the record 0! O'Leary in the great international match at London. But at Gllmore’s Garden, with an excellent track, a famous competitor. and every accessoryto effort that could be sup- plied. Campena has made so wretched anex- hibition or his powers that the result at the match 1s scarcely worth recording as an incl. dent oi daily news. The discrepancy between promise and performance is so glaring that no excuses will palliate it or disguise the real character of the contest. But there is some ‘sllm satisfaction in believlng that a pedes- trian speculation oi this kind will prevent others from succeeding. One of the ccsnpe- titors is eclipsed tor good. and the other will haveto look sharply to his reputation it he takes part in many more unsavory contest. like that which he has just won. â€" N. Y.
