climbed over "A gate into the field. and
wrapping the baby in its little shawl,
she laid it down in the grass. so gently

The baby soon awoke, and began

In to-day's HERALD will be found an In
England's cause that tho present govern
mcnt proposes to call from India. Specu-
lation as to the probable result of so re-
markabio proceeding MS the use of Indian
troops in Europe is likely to be lively, and
already opinions on the wisdom of this step
vary greatly. In Parliament constitutional
objections have been made on the ground
that il is measure for which tho consent OF
Parliament should have been obtained. But
the government answers that the movement
OF q portion of the troops from one part of
the Empire to another is m act for which
the Ministry has power, and that is oil that
has been done, since the troops arc as yet
only ordered to Malta. But under that
defence the Ministry might also order the
troops to England some fine day. and would
find them scryiceablo instruments in put
ting down revolt of the English people.
But If the British government actually uses
Indian troops in q war against RUSSIA one
OF two things will happen--either the
troops will be easily beaten, as we believe
they will be, by tho Russians, and England's
cause will go by default for want OF de-
tenders, or they will fight the Russians
stanchly. and thus find that they are them
selves tho most important fighting force in
the British Empire. How long will India
be tranquil after that discovery is made?
