The ‘‘ Civil and Military Gazette” de- clarea that pl ‘yions to Gen. Burrows’ de- feat Sir Frederick Haines, commander-in- chief, and a momber of the Supreme Coun- cil of India, protested aguinst the weak- ness of Burrows’ brigade and the Candahar garrison, but was overruled by the Viceroy.

Lonpon, Sept. 6.

A correspondent of the Z'imes at Simla, telegraphs the Government must now de- eice the Candahar question. [tis impossi- ble to bolster up Wali whois not supported by the people. We must annex Candahar or give it up Ameer to Abdurrahman or try to fund independent state composed oO Herat and Candahar. The second plan

would be the best one. A SBritish force might be maintained, if necessary near

Candahar in fortified cantonement, and the railway might be completed. The corres- pondent prob bly reiiec’s the views ot the Marquis of Ripon, Governor-General of India, if indecd the dispatch is not directly! inspired by bim.
