The committee organized to urge early meeting
Of the British Parliament in view of with Afghan
istan having asked Lord Beaconsfeld to grant them
m interview tho Premier has written let
ter to their chairman. Lord Lawrence, in reply
Lord Bcaconsfed says he is at loss to perceive
what uscful purpose can be served by . more ex-
tended expression, through dcputation from the
committee Of opinions which Lord Lawrence
and others have 80 frequently and copousy
explained in regard to tho assembling Of Parliament
The government WILL matter Of course be pre-
pared. in the event of the commencement Of hosti
hes in India. to advise Her Majesty to make such
communication to Parliament tho letter and
spirit of the act regulating the relations Of
the Grown with India may to require.
This would seem to be a not less satisfactory and
scarcely less constitutional mode Of meeting the
occasion than series Of mem orials and deputa-
tions. The papers relative to India will be
published before the end Of the month.
Lord Lawrence's committee yesterday passed reso-
luton regretting Lord Beaconsfelds refusa to re-
eeive deputation, and smphatically condemning his
spparent determination. In the event Of wsr being
declared. not to advise Her Majesty to consult Para
ment until hostihties have begun. The committee
adjourned until Friday. and decided meanwhile to
eoliect signatures to the protest. The act cited by
Lord Beaconsfeld in his letter TO Lord Law
renee precsribes that when Parliament is
sitting any order directing an actual COM
mencemcnt Of hostilities by Her Majesty's
forces in India must be communicated to it within
three months. and if Parliament is not sitting then
within q month after it rcasscmbles. Thus the gov
ernment under legal obligation to call Parlia
Inent earlier than usual.

several regiments have been warned to hold them
selves in readiness to advance from Qucta immedi-
aely. and that all ready Merchants from Central

THE RUSSIANS BULGARIA.
Prince Doudoukof- -Korsakof the Governor Of Bull
garia, has arrived at Odessa his way to Livadia
to report upon the state Of affairs in Turkey.
The Vienna correspondent Of the Times thinks that in
view Of the fact that Prince Doudoukof- Korsakoff
has expressed his opposition to the Treaty Of
Berlin, the appointment OF another per-
son ~ Governor of Bulgaria is probable.
The Bucharest newspapers publish the particulars Of
the Russian demands which, If correct. materially
detract from their significance. They seem
only to have asked increased facilities for
INSTRUMENTATION through Raumania during
the term Of the occupation Of Bulgaria
Nevertheless. according to tho ounanz Lbera news
paper. the Bucharest: government has already de-
chned the Russian proposals. declaring that the exist
ing facilities all that the Russians need according
to the Treaty of Berlin and the Russo -Roum anian
Convention. The Puts Berlin correspondent sAys:--
