a reply, the officer called one
of the soldiers who was on the platform, and com-
manded him to load. In an instant the man sprung
forward, and with the quickness of an experienced
rifleman, opened the breech, insert° I the cartridge,
and presented the weapon directly at the head of the
gentleman who had ventured to ad' c the question.
So determined was the soldier's scanner, and so evident
his intention to fire, that several gentlemen who
witnessed the cc nirrence feared he would do so. The
Englishmen in the compartment were sensible enough
to get out of the carriage instantly. They then in-
formed the officers they were Englishmen, which they
had not had the opportunity of stating before, and Wl3lO
allowed to re•occupy their proper seats.

In addition to the above, the Dail y Telegraph of
Tuesday also publi-hed the following

mediately the muzzle of the sofix was pointed in Mose
proximity to our heads. Thinking clecretlon was the
better part of valour, and seeing the excited state of the
officer, who was stamping his feet with rage, Iso alighted,
and then, for the first time, were able to toll him we were
Englishmen travelling with passports duly vised. The guard
of the train came up at this moment, and Wormed the officer
he had a compartment with ten seais at his disposal. The
