that his limbs are crooked and not to be relied
on, he is obliged to intend to his WORK on

to his tlilapidatel wagon. The horse that will
not roar md plunge ut tho sight Of the cara is
too tame for him, aud hs exchanges 1t for ss-
other.

for that officer brilliant success, while Oh the
other hand Lo mentions very unfavorable cEltl-
cisms which might be ulade- He ndds:
1.-The truth lies bctween these two extremes.
1t is impossible 10 say whether the affair at Essa-
man is connected with the Ashantee retreat; 1t
is doubtful whether thcir homeward movement
should be called retreat at all. Gen. Woiseley
has acted with much caution, but it should be
remembered that be was dealing with tue nFes
of sca1non and marines, who we're intended only
to bc used for defensive purposes. The prestige
Of the Ashantees as basa-hGhters has not been
lesscued; and, although the King may offer to
negotiate for the purpose Of consuming the o1 !!
season and Of delaying our invasion. 1t Is GER
