WHAT TIIE WORLD SAYS.

No Q 9401111 messenger can led the Royal message re-
quiring the presence of the Premier at Windsor on Sunday
last to Downing-street. Prince Leopold conveyed the
Queen's wish to Lord Beaconsfield; and Prince Leopold
awaited her Majesty at Windsor on her arrival from
Baden-Baden, fully informed of the views of the Prime
Minister on the subject of resignation. The incident
speaks of the very friendly relations existing between the
Monarch and the Minister who gave her an Imperial
CfOWll.

Up till Friday last Lord Beaconsfield still held to the
hope that he might have an opportunity ot crowning the
imperial Wince, by declaring in Parliament while still a
Minister of the Queen the latest moors at his policy in
Europe and in India; and the little birds in Downing-
street whisper that Prince Leopold was able to show
Royal reasons against such a course It may not be
genera/1y understood that Prince Leopold has, in a minor
sense, succeeded to the port of affectionate adviser
held by the Prince Consort. But it is a fact, neverthe-
less,

Indeed, Sir Henry Taylor, you are right 'fl. world

THE MISSING ATALANTA.

If there was one article in the creed of the sailor of
former days which he held to more pertinaciously than
sn-dher, it was the supreme seaworthiness of our
frigates. The good opinion, so widely held, rested upon
the experience of two centuries. It cannot fail to bare its
weight with us now. Would that it could encourage us
to hope that the Atalanta, the lad survivor of the clam of
sailing f Hardee eawninissioned in the BI WA navy, Magill to
bring her crew safe into port t Unhappily all the facts
point to • different result. It is now about eighty days
since she is known io hsye left her anchorages' Bermuda.
The wise resolve of the Admiralty to send 10th. Aires to
look after he mis&ng Atalanta must soon end in clearing
up this point, as iii. ace oely conceivable that anything of
the sort can have happened to her without its being known
throughout the islands, to which thee is as yet no
telegraph-raids from Zuropa—Werid.- [The Eurydice was
lo.t shout two years ago.]

The ominous silence respecting the fats of the train-
ing-ship Atalanta is still unbroken. Strange to say,
the despair of her safety which prevailed at Ports-
mouth a week ago is now giving place to • buoyant
feeling of hope. Naval men, in particular, adhere to
the belief that the ship is yet afloat.

DEFEAT OF THE NATIVES AND
CAPTURE OF GSUZNL

The following telegram from Lord Lytton, dated on
Friday, was received at the India Office last night :
'The following message has been received from
General Stewart by telegraph, through General Ross's
Camp :—'Camp Ginizni, 22nd April.—On 19th instant
the division under my command, while marching from
Mushaki, encountered an armed gathering of Andaris
Tarakis, Suleman Kheylo and other tribesmen, who
numbered some 15,000 men, horse and foot. Prepara-
tion was made to attack a strong position held by the
enemy 23 miles south of Ghualni, when • body of some
9000 fanatic swordsmen poured down on our troops,
spreading out beyond either flank of our line. Fight-
ing Lasted one hour, after which the entire body of the
enemy spread broadcast over the country. The
protection of the baggage prevented pursuit by cavalry.
The divison, however, marched foward nine miles to
Tani after engagement, and day before yesterday, the
20th, the advanced cavalry entered Ghusni. Over
1000 of the enemy's dead were counted on the ground,
and their loss in killed and wounded is stated to be
2000. Casualties on our side 17 killed and 155
wounded. The following are wounded. Lieut.
Young, 19th Bengal Danoers, dangerously; C
Corbit, Royal Horse Artillery, severely' Captain
Colonel Lawson, 59th Foot ;York, 19th Bengal Lancers;
Lieut. Watson, 59th Foot; Lieut. Stewart, 2risl
Punjab Cavalry, all slightly. No officers killed. All
wounded doing well."
