 The outlook in Burmah is beginning to clear up wonderfully, and there seems to be every prospect that after all treaty will be successfully negotiated at Simls- To Europ- can minds it seems somewhat singular that the execution and Imprisonment (which in Burmah are practically synonymous) of Cabi- net Ministers should give rise to hopes of a settlement of the affairs of the co untry- But in the East and especially in Burmah, polfti- cal amenities are not as they are here. A minister who has done particularly good ser vice to his country receives from his sover- eisn patent guaranteeing him from all the forms of death known up to the time of writing. Younger diplomatists have to stand their chance tlIt they nave prorv,s fl --- tv But all alike are liable to @ sudden end. Ingenuity dcYi5es ne~ form of death for the tried politician, and the juniors can be got out nf He way anyhow without a rLsLlrg Of genius Afcirs in Maudslay are being set tied in this way at the present momen. and the political horizon is being cleared after a fashion which we caaao. but secretly ap- prove, though w5 may not be cynical enough to openly apfiaad it.

He rejoieed more in his title of Convener of the Fifth Great Synod than in any of the other high sounding names which appertain to the Lord Of the Golden Tbrone, The Theebaw Prince was during all -iiis early youth under cloud His mother had been releeated to & convent for misbehavior, and there were serious doubts as to .ho boys legitimacy. But aftor lis two years in the English mission school in MKndalay, Thee- baw went iptU Buddhist rnonastery, and in due time came up for examination 1n the sacred books He passed with very great credit the test as Patsma Byan, qualifying him for admission us a full-robed brother Of the Sacred OrIer. This secured for him the attention of his father and thenceforwtIrd tue Prince-t.eetie wss a great fayorlte ln the nalace But still he not deslgnated as .hA successor.

But now came in palace in, triSie. It was well knowr that the young Prince, in spite of his yellow robe, was still so fer Tn the world of passion as to be deeply in love with his halt-sister, and that her younger sister, the present chise Gaeen, was
