the issues of peace and war are trembling in | the balance. However, the government found themselvrs confronted with a deter- mined policy of aggression. That sum- mons would be answered as in past times, and the English democracy would show it- self patient, resolute, and enduring, ex- hibiting the courage and tenacity that formerly dis‘inguished the Anglo-Saxon}race it is a matter of regret that such questions shonid be delayed. We need political re- forms, but we are fortunate that we have not yet arrived at the stage requiring us to abandon all hopes of a peaceful settlement. LIN FULL ADVANCE ON HERAT.

Lord Edmund Fitzmaurice announced in the House of Commons or the 29th inst., that the Government had recived definite and reliable information that the Russians were now in full advance on Herat. He also announced that the report of the occupation of Maruchak had been confirm- The announcement created a profound sensation, ana much bitterness was express- ed by members. A gloomy feeling prevails in London, the belief being general that the commencement cf open hostilities be- tween Kugland and Russia is only the mat- ter of a few days. The Duke of Cambridge inspected troops who have been ordered out on active service in case of war, at Aldershot a few days ago.

On the arrival of the news of the Russian defeat at Afghanistan the Czar sent a courier despatch to England in the nature of ultimatum and signed an order for mobilization of the forces,”
