The arrival in London Of Gen. Roberts
present commander-n.chiel of he
msiesty's forces in India, was made thu
signal for an outburst OF disc0nton
among the returned officers OF th'
Suakim- Berber expedition against Gen
Lord Wolselcy. Sir llavely, under tn
nom dc plume OF Scrutator, has published
Ia the Times series OF charg agains
the DECORATED CoMdAhnrH
of the Khartoum expedition. Among
these is one that Gen. WOlsele,
suppressed the names which Gen
Graham recommended for promotion
on account of actual sery w
and substituted for them the names of
number OF his personal and court favor
ties Scrutator says that the rcaSoI
Gen. Wolseley ignored the services of th'
troops and officers engaged Il
the Suaklm- Berber expedition wa
that neither he, the duk,
Of Comnaught, nor any OF the other mill
tary iayorites of royalty had any share II

vailing sentiment of the army officer
In London IL bitterly agains
Gen. Wolscley. Efforts are MAXIM
to have his conduct of the Nile campaig
made the subject OF parliamentary dis
cussion, with aview 10 securing search
