Stewirt’s ‘Body Suppose sd to be in Canada.

The - latest se nation in regard to the whereabouts of the body of A. T, Stewart is that it is secreted in seme part of Canada. An Upper Province exchange says :--“The Stewart grave robbery continues. to be the sensational ‘mystery of the» hour in the United States. One by one the various de- tectival theories started to locate the thieves and their singular booty have been aban- doned for the now favorite one that the body of the great merchant prince is hidden in a safe plaee im Canada, and that the authors of the sacrilege only wait for the excitement to pass away to impose condi- tions on the widow and Judge Hilton. The mysterious movements of the police indicate that they have at least got hold of the right clue. Asit never entered. into the minds of the framers of the extradition Treaty be-| tween Canada and the United States to in- elude such crimes into the treaty, the thieves are at liberty to negotiate at their ease for the return of the body, and Super- intendent Walling is already said to be in treaty with them on the subject. They ask $160,000, and declare that they will not give it up for a cent less. “One of the most skilful of the police detectives and another of Pinkerton’s Agency are actually: in Canada, seeking to effecta bargain in the matter, which is believed to be inthe hands ‘of a Montreal lawyer, who is acting as intermediary for the thieves, who are passably well known, but will be found difficult to punish by law.”

GALT’S ‘MISSION—SAVING THE PUBLIC MONEY,

An Ottawa correspondent, under date of Nov. 17, writes » ** Sir A. T. Galt) sailed for England on Saturday, It is understood that his mission is to confer with Her Ma- jesty’s Government as to the best means of opening up : and developing Canadian trade with the British and foreign West Indies He acedmpanies Mr. Tilley, who has gone to England to repair the negligence of his predecessor. The Government are resolved to push energetically the opening up of new avenues of trade for the Dominion. They are determined not to be mere ‘ flies on the wheel. "

‘* A saving to the country of a salary of $3,200 has been effected in the Department of thé Interior. When Mr. Meredith was superannuated, after years of service, the’ late Government might well have embraced the opportunity of making this saving. It was, it is said, pointed out to Mr. fills, then Minister of the Interior, that the De. partment was then over-manned, and that Colonel J. Dennis, Surveyor-General, whose salary is also $3,200, could readily perform the united duties without increase of salary. This suggestion was, however, not acted upon, and Mr. Buckingham, at the time Mr. McKenzie’s private secretary, although an official of less than five years’ standing, and of necessity utterly ignorant of the duties of the department, was placed over the heads of old and experienced civil servants. This has been remedied by the present. Government, Mr. Buckingham being relegated to his former ‘position in the Public Works Department °

England and Afghanistan.

ADVANCE OF THE INTO THE KHURUM

WAR ACTUALLY BEGUN BRITISH TROOPS VALLEY.

Lonpon, Noy. 21. The Government has published a long dispatch from, Lord Cranbrook, Secretary of State for India, to Lord Lytton, Viceroy of India, re capitulating the negotiations with Afghanistan. The dispatch traces the first estrangement between, England and the Ameer of Afghanistan to the refusal of the Gladstone Government in 1873 to give a definite answer as to how far they would help him if he was threatened by Russia. The dispatch points out that, on the acces- sion of the present. Government, the rela- tions of England with Afghanistan had to be considered with “reference to the rapid march of events in Turkistan; consequent- ly, when Lord Lytton was sent to India, he was intrusted to offer the. Ameer the pro- tection he preyjously solicited, namely, sub- stantial pecuniary aid, the recognition of the dynasty anda pledge of material support against unprovoked foreign aggression, con- ditionally ou the Ameer allowing the British agents to have access to the position in his territory (except Cabul) where they could acquire trustworthy intelligence of the events likely to threaten the tranquility and independence of Afghanistan. Such access was necessary as a substantial proof of the unity of the Ameer’s interests with those of Great Britain. The despateh then « nar- rates the abortive ending of the mission of

Col. Sir Lewis Peely aud General Sir Ne- ville Chamberlain, which were undertaken In pursuance of. these instructions, and shows that the latter was suggested by: Lord Lytton, who thought that after the osten- tatious reception of the Russian mission, the policy of inaction was no longer tenable and that the refiisal of the Ameer to receive a British mission owas improbable and would be inexcusable. ‘Lhe despateh concludes by Btating the terms of the ultimatum, namely:

a full and suitable apology within a given time , the reception of a permanent British

imission and amnesty to the tribes who es- caped the British Envoys. “The Ameer has been informed that ualess-a clear and satis- factory reply is received by Nov. 20th the Viceroy will be compelled to consider: his intentions hostile and treat him as.a declar- ed enemy.

It is announced that no reply to the British ultimatum has been re¢eived from the Ameer of Afghanistan, and orders have been accordingly sent to India, for the troops to advance.

A Bombay despatch says that the Times of India publishes a despatch from Hull dated yesterday, which. announces that,the British troops-haye occupied Fort Kapion without a ae the Afghans retreating hurried!y before them. Fort Kapion or Kapuryur is a station beyond the. frontier line opposite Thal.or Thul.. its abandon- ment or surrender was anticipated. ‘The force at Thull, which it is believed is de- signed to march to the head of the Khurum Valley, drive out the Afghan force there and secure the highest point of the Pass, in readiness for a further advance in: the spring, or for co-operation with the force operating against Jellalabad through the Khyber Pass, is under command of Gen Roberts, and consists of two brigades. The first brigude is under Col. Cobb, comprising the Eighth Kings and Fifth and ‘Twenty- ninth Pun jaub. Native Infantry Regiments, and the second brigade is under Col. Thel- well, comprising the 2nd and 2ist Pun- jaubs and 5th Ghoorkas. Other regiments will be attached as they come up from Ko- hat. No resistance is expected until the upper end of the Khurum Valiey is reached, The native tribes in the Valley profess good will towards the British.

The Daily News says that the Indian'coux- cil-has never becn consulted or had an op- portunity for expressing any opinion. in re- spect to the Afghan question.

There seems to be.a still lingering im- pression among speculators that the Ameer may submit when he knows that the British troops are actually in motion, —,

A dispatch from Caleutia pays that all the columus were ordered to eross the fron- tier to-day. All telegrams . detailing the movements or disposition of the troops have

aoa 0 ped by the military authorities. Globe’s Lahore correspondent says :* “ the Dritich troops crossed the ~ frontier this morning. A Te iatch from Thull says that the Tenth Hussars crossed the frontier this morning and found Fort iyanga abandoned. Three children were left there. Genoral Roberts’ force at once moyed foi- ward on Fort Armedias, five miles further up the valley.” Brvssexs, Nov. 21, The Russian organ Le Nord, in an article on the Afghan war, says the reports, which will, doubtless, be propagated, relative to complications between England and Russia, may be characterized beforehand as false. All prospect of such eventuality may be put out of the qnestion with perfect assurance.

» Lanore; Nov. 21.

The British force advancing on Quettah has arrived at Kushak, ten miles distant. The cold is intense, and abont 100 men are sick in each regiment. Warm clothes are urgently required. Considerable anxiety is felt regarding the weather. The proclama. tion of the Viceroy was'read to the Belooch Chief, stating that the war was only to be waged against the Ameer. The Guettah column nurabers about 5,260 men. A di- vision commanded by Lieut. General Donald Stewart, numbering 6,330 men, has left

Mooltan for Quettah.
