A Discrimination to Fight.
A Discrimination to Figh

LONDON, December IA.
In the House of Commons last night
Mr.. Percy reopened the debate on the
Afghan war on the part Of the Govern
ment. Sir William Vernon Harcourt fol-
lowed, accusing the Government OF forcing
q quarrel on the Ameer. He declared that
the acquisition of a strategic frontier would
make ~Afghanistan another Bulgaria, and
the continuance Of such q policy would
cause Russian influence to Overshadow the
earth. Sir John Halker replied, N the
debate was continued by Captain Cochrane,
Mr.. Gorst and Mr.. Plunkett in behalf OF
the Government. Thomas Burt, Radical,
spoke and was particularly vehement in his
opposition to the war oh account OF the
distress which prevailed in England. A
notable feature of the debate was the de-
livery of speeches by Mr.. New, delegate,
and General Sir Alexander Gordon, both
Conservatives, denouncing the Govern
ment policy. Sir Alexander declared that
Lord Beaconsfield was responsible for that
policy. During his speech he crossed to
the Opposition benches to avoid Interrupt
tons from Conservative members. he
was repeatedly cheered by the Opposition.
News from Cabul represents that eight
regiments Of Afghanistan infantry have
a disinclination to fight. The natives in
South Shutar and Gordon Pass seem
friendly to the British. The following dis
patch from General Roberts is dated the
9th instant: 81 hope to reach the top OF
Shutar Gordon Pass to-day. l shall then
return to Ali Kehlo."
ALahore dispatch says it is rumored that
the Ameer entreats for peace on any
terms.
A telegram from Pcshawer says there is
much sickness, principally pneumonia,
among the trops at the front. One regi-
ment has lost Is men in four days and an
other has eighty sick.
