The Lords—.for that is the official title of the admirals and politicans who are entrusted with the destinies of the Roval Navy— were soon engaged in endeavoring to dis- coverthe source of the German Kaiser's extraordinary amount of information, much of which is comprised among what bas hitherto been considered in the light of official secrets of the English Govern- meut.

It appears tha: when the Gordon High - landers crossed the ‘fiery zone at Dargai they notonly'tound the Ghoorkas there before them, but were closely followed by the Sikha. The native regiments, there. fore, came in for a full share of credit in thie gallant action, as indeed they have done in most of the frontier fizhting. Their losses at Dargai were two officers and nineteen men killed; 4 officers and 65 men wounded. The British regiments engaged (Dorsete, Derbys and Gordovs), bad two vfficers and'tourteen men killed; i officers and 82 men wounded. Honors and losses were about equally divided. Altogether the crossing of the zone of fire cost 195 men of all ranks, killed and wounded, 80 that this gallant achievement like so many other glories of British arms, was not cheaply bongbt.

The Westminster, in its issue of last week, bas this to eay on the result of the Centre Torontoelection: “The Conserva- tives have surprised the country, and pro- bably themselves, by the vigor of the fight they made. When the vacancy occured, there seemed such disorganization in the party that walkover for the L berals ap- peared not unlikely; ove of the r ally sig- nificant points about the contest ie the manner in which the Conservatives pulled themselves together. In all probability the bye-election marks the reappearance upon the sceve of the Conservative party, which bas now seen the worst days of its period of distintegration and paralysis. lt has come out and made a tight of it; and, henceforward, the Liberal Government will have to reckon with it.” The West- minster makes a mistake in assuming that the Conservative party has been dead. It has not even beensleeping. The underly - ing principles of Convervatiem do not chenge, and are destined to be again en- dorsed by the electors of Canada.
