Emigration from India to the colonies has. long age passed fram the stage of in- teresting experiment to that of accom- plished success, and during the past year nearly sixteen thousand souls have left left British India for British?colonies.. It is a common error to suppose that the ‘‘caste” of Hindoos forbids their crossing the seas, but caste is rapidly losing its power to for- bid anything to the middle and lower classes of India, for where money is con- cerned, caste traditions are no easily over- looked. The railway, for instance, is a great destroyer of caste etiquette; and so are education, commerce, and, in fact, every phase of civilization Among the emigrants from India, therefore, it ia net surprising to find that nearly fourteen thousand of the total number were Hin- doos, and of these fourteen hundred were Brahmins. Another feature of interest in this Indian emigration is the place which is being taken by the Fiji Islands in Hin- doo estimation. The Chinese have lately been swarming thither in large numbers, but they will find in the docile, industrious, and thrifty Hindoo—fer such is their char- acter in Trinidad, Jamaica, Mauritius, Natal, Demerara, and all the other col onies which they effect—a formidable rival in the labor market.

‘insenintsoseligaacdeinel Speaking at Huddersfield, Lerd Derby observed :-—‘* I do not believe in short cuts to fortune. Labour, enterprise, and saving gave us the industrial position which we have earned, and these qualities alone can retain it. But we must know what we want. If we are going, as a nation, inte the gunpowder and glory business ; if we think the increased development of milit- aryism a necessity of our pesition, do not let us hide from ourselves what. one result, at least, will be. We may be suceessful and glorious—so we were in 1815; but I do not suppose that at any period in our his- tory the English people have been se poor, so miserable, or so dissatisfied as they were in the fifteen or twenty years that followed Waterloo. (Applause.) But there is a dif- ference between those times and the pre- sent. Thirty years ago the labourer and the artisan might suffer, but they had to submit ; there was no escape for them. But now the seas are open ; they need not even go outside the British Empire to es- cape from Imperial taxation and European responsibilities. Australia and Canada will take them in, and be glad of their com- ing, while they will take very good care not to involve themselves further than they can help in Eurepean troubles. (Applause. ) I think this a circumstanee which ought to be borne in mind if any question should arise of military adventure not forced upon us by duty or by self-defence.” (Cheers. )

Washington Letter. WasuHinoTton, D. C., Jan. 26.

Notwithstanding this is, so far, political. ily, a dull session, Washington has been (much and frequently excited on political | inatters, and another sabject of that nature is now taking itsturn. It relates te what is familiarly known as the Cameron ring, in the political eontest going on in Penn- sylvania. The Camerons never have been defeated in the party conventions in that State, but there are wise heads now shak- ing over their prospect. At the time Sen- ator Cameron went for and grabbed the Chairmanship of the Republican National Committee, | wrote you it was well under- stood to mean an effort te force the nomin- ation of Grant. Events have since proved the truth of what I said, as many men who favor other candidates, but were deceived into helping te elevate Cameroh, are bitter- ly comprehending. Cameron’s friends in Washington have declared that his State was already given to Grant, four months in advance of the Convention, and what is their astonishment now to find that, in the primary elections, County after County is declaring for Blaine, and saga- cious politicians assert that the Maine Senator will carry off the delegation in spite of Camoron’s influence. She Camerons are terribly wrought up by this aspect of affairs, and. I learn upon undoubted author- ity, are inventing new devices for control, ing the delegation, for that is what Camer- on wants more than men to carry it for Grant. if it shall turn ont that the State Jonveutio& is really a Blaine body, then the Camerons will say to them, ‘‘don’t instruct for anybody, but ‘act to- gether.” Their design is disconserted in ~ adyanee, and prominent Penn- sylvania Republicans have sent earnest words home to have a sharp lookeut fer all tricks that may result in suppressing the voice of the convention. One of them said to me ‘‘ we were elected in ‘76, we do not propose to be cheated again.”” Everybody is astonished at the remarkable viger of the Blaine boom in that State, as well as at the violent opposition to Cameron, and the ap- parent falling off the Grant boom when we have been told it had the field all to itself.

The Washington Republican organ has a severe attack upon Commissioner Bentley, alleging mismanagement of the pension office, and urging congress to take no notice of his recommendations. It says there is no necessity for new legislation, but that their should be more alacrity in the Pension Office in order to answer the calls upon it. The fact is Republicans as well as Democrats have come to the conclusion that Secretary Schurz’s pets are not the most efficient men that could be selected for their positions, and I would not be surprised if Hoyt and Bentley both had to go.

The womens’ suffragists had a hearing at the Capital on Saturday, on the question of a sixteenth amendment to the Constitu- tion. Subquently they held a caucus, and voted to send delegates to all the National Conventions this year, and ask co-opera. tion. They promise to support with all their effort and money that party which will favor them.

The long terms feature of the bond pro- posed by Mr. Weod does not meet with the favor with which the 34 per cent. feature does. While the Committee and a« ma- jority of the House believe in a 34 percent., they favor a bond to run 30 years rather than one torun 50. The 30 years bond will be adopted.

The Afghan War.

Despatches from Cabul state that General Bright, at the head of a strong detachment of troops, has marched to logar Valley, which has been the scene of the recent serious ris- ings, and encamped there, with a view to suppressing local disturbances and combina- tions among tribes before they can do any serious mischief. Logar Valley is separated by a single mountain range from Ghuznee Road, which latter place is at present the ral- lying point of tribes that gather im support of Mohamed Jan. At the fortress of Ghuznee the head men of the various tribes known by general title of Kohistans are said te be com- ing into their rendezvous in considerable ferce, and Tarkir Khan, one of the most influential chiefs, has avowed his determination to fight to the last extremity, unless the English con- sent to the reinstatement of Yakoob Khan as Ameer. The Cabuli, however, are declared to have refused the proposition of Mohammed Jan to march at once on Farah, alleging that the season is not yet suitable, and that the British forces are too strong in that vicinity to justify them in taking the risk unsupported by Hillmen. Thus far, it is intimated ope- rations made in the hope of preventing the junction cf the Kohistans in the neighborhood of Ghuzni have not been as successful as was hoped for, and the situation is regarded with sone anxiety on account of the certainty of | another organized campaign on the part of the | Afghans as soon as their more warlike forces can be collected. :

ee tm —- Chapped Hands.

| If any one is troubled with chapped hands, }let me recommend diluted vinegar as a cure, | Take equal parts of vinegar and water, and ‘always after washing the hands with soap | wet them with this mixture. Soap cuts the oil that naturally moistens the skin, leaving ‘dry and hard, and causing it seen to crack ‘and become sore. The diluted vinegar neut- | ralizes the alkali of the soap and stops its fur-

| ther action. If, after — this, the | hands are wet with a mixture of equal parts of glycerine and water, and then dried by

‘*dabbing” (not rubbing) with a soft cloth, _the skin soon becomes supple, smooth, and soft. This treatment is simple, safe, and ‘sure.
