this pointedly when he heardthe news. ‘Ah

the door be closed against them, they can
always come back and break it!” In the
meantime, the Horse Guards have given Sir
Robert Napier the “G. C.B.” that was expect-
ed, but it is hinted that there is a disposition
to let him see that he cannot really expect to
ve rewarded like a ‘tregular.” ‘The press is
already deprecating any invidious course of
that kind; and it is not at all unlikely that

the authorities to make a more generous, re~

men in Abyssinia. —Lcadon Letter,
