SPECIAL DESPATCHES TO THE EXAMINER,

GRAVE CRISIS IN INDIA.

—_—

Heavy Expenditures and Prop- able Less of Life.

The Fall of Fort Ali Musjid Was a Serious Blow.

> s ar mn . ’ ’ Bombay, Aug. 26 —The latest de spatch-

es trom the front indicate that the situa-

tion Is getting worse. lt is evident that the Indian Government mwueset fecea grave crisis Involving heavy expenditures and

probable loss of life. The fall of Fert Ali Musjid was a serious biow, for it isolates Fort Lundi Natal at the extreme end of the Khyber Pass, which ts garrisoned by 300 rifles, and necessitates the prompt recon- quest of the pass. This will prove a most formidable task. The wi] prevails among Hindoo traders

at the

board. Simia, Aug. 26.—All the British army officers on leave of absence have been

ordered to return to their regiments imme- diately,

Prsnawer, August 24.—It is reported that aJarge number of Aftrids, led by fanatical priests, attacked the Sepoys about noon yesterday, massacring 300, capturing their rifles and then proceeding in large force to make an attack upon the British garrison on the Iowrage. There is @ very uneasy feeling in Quetta, where the troops are under orders to be in readinees to march to New Chaman, which is the extreme outpost of the Afghan frontier, southeast of Kandahar, and on the edge of the Kegistan desert, between the provinces of Toba and Pishin. Khyber pass is swarming with Afrids, and it is feared that the fall of Fort Maude has greatly enceur- aged the rebellous elements.

Loxdon, ‘Aug. 25.—A special despatch from Bembay says there is an uncomtirmed rumor in circulation there that the Afrids have attacked Fort Ali Mu+jid with great determination. The garrison made a sortie in full force, endeavoring to disperse them but met with a terrible resistance and lost =00 killed. The remnant of the garrison then abandoned the post and made its way to the station on the Lowragt.

ITEMS ABOUT GRANVILLE.

The farmers are all through haying | which was an average crop and saved | fair condition considering the weather. The grain and root crops Jook splendid. | There have been a good many visiting | their friends this summer and some spend- ing their vacation. Among them we notice Mrs. Cann and Miss McNeill, of Manches- ter; Miss Stewart, of Charlottetown; Mrs. Vaughan and daughter, of Concord, N.4; Mise Frizzle and Miss Davies, of Summer~- side; Mrs. McCulley and four children, of DeBert, N.S.; and last though not least our popular merchanis of Bradalbane, Messrs. Morris and McKay. The Jatter spent most of his time fiehing.

Mr. P. Morrison, of the Merchants Bank of Summerside, has been tryirg his hand here at fishing and Messrs. Leslie and Beer of Kensington, bave been also trying their band. But Mr. Leslie seemed to get the trout. Ile was inclined to go down stream the others were iaclined to go up. Consequently Mr. Leslie got the best trout, Some of them weighing about two pounds,

Quite a number of the folks here at- tended the lecture at Stanley on “Forestry” delivered by the Rev. Mr. McGilvary, of Ontario. They all spoke very well of the lecture.

Mr. Wm. R. Taylor attended the High Court of Foresters held at Summerside last week.

T ie Rev. Mr. Stirling assisted by Rev. Mr.McLean,ot Valle; field,administered the Sacrament in South Granville on Sabbath the 15th of August. Quite a number were present, although not to many 4s on former occasions.

Granville is becoming quite a place of resort, ard those who spend their summer vacation here speak highly of the place and people.

The Rev. Mr. Pearce occupied the Methodist pulpit here last Sunday ana gave a very interesting discourse. Le is very popular in Granville. Mr. George Mailet will occupy the pulpit next Sun- day. He is very well liked as a_ local preacher.

The Sunday School is doing very well under the direction of Mr. Crew; also the day school under the supervision of Miss Brown is doing fine work.

Pearly Stream Division has taken a vaca- tion this summer. It will likely steam up about the first of October if some of the prominent members take hold of it.

Mr. Austin Taylor, whe has been in the States since last fall,came home Jast week. The land to the south has not beeu con- genial to him, as the tinge of health see:ns to be all gone. But it is hoped he will foon pull up.

Mr. A. K. Henry, who got his’eye badly huit some time ago, is we are pleased to hea:, nearly well under the skilful treat- ment of Dr. MacNeill, of Stanley Bridge. He suffered a great deal of paio as an Operation was performed on it.

Mr. David Taylor, of this place, came nearly heing drowned one day last week while attempting to go out fishing with Captain John McLeod. The wind was high and tse boat yot in the breakers, But for the presence of mind of the captain both might have meta watery grave. More caution ought to be exercised when the wind is so high.

Farmers have begun harvesting and are wishing for fine weather. May tbeir wishes be granted. More later on. OBSERVER. Granville, Aug. 23. Ly
