1st Member for Christiansted (WiUdrd)
as one of the Budget-C Committee would
say, that the only wish of the Committee
was to see brought before the Council a
clear statement as to the actual expense
for this particular purpose. To him it
would appear to be far more correct to put
down as the result of the Councils vote
the whole amount required for purchasing
the requisite number of horses, but on the
Revenue Side to add the sum gained by
the sale Of the cashiered horses. But at
times the Revising Committees have had
some difficulty in accounting for sums of
revenue Jumped up under one, without
detailed statement, and then the Book
keeper had to be asked for information;
hence it was thought best now to have
the amount gained under this head put
down as a set off against a portion of the
expected outlay. But from a view to
bookkeeping, it certainly would seem pre-
ferable to have the Revenue posted as
such, and the whole sum Of the grant en-
tered for a vote as usual every year.
The Chairman would also consider it
more expedient that the revenue from the
sale of military horses be entered among
Sundry Revenues; and he would suggest
that the Committee ~withdraws it's proposal.
The Speaker said he would withdraw it,
if the amount were by the Government en-.
tered among Sundry Revenue or else.
where on the Revenue Side, which has not
been done. In the Committee the question
as to the best way of fixing the matter was
discussed, and the way now proposed was
agreed on.
The Governor stated that he had already
i said that the amount will in the acco nts
be entered among Sundry Revenues.
The Chairman said he considered the
Committees proposal Withdrawn.

The Mission Of the Mahdi.

CAIRO March 5.-The term "Mahdi' is
approximately translated Messiah" The
Mahdi's hesvenimpoSed mission is neither
national nor political, but religious. Tho
ierritority which he claims and the people
whose allegiance he demands are limited
solely by his geographical ignorance Either
be is the looked.for spiritual head Of the
whole world, who is to unite all nations
under an Islam purified Of lis existing
abuses, or he is nothing lie is either the
Messiah which was to come or an imposter.
Avoiding more exact parallel, which
might seem irreverent, an attempt TO nego-
tate with such a leader might be compared
to an offer made by the Mobsumedan lead
er 10 Peter the Hermit Of the crown Of the
Franks if he would refrain from prosecuting
the Crusades
The Mahdi's aims, repeated in innumera'
bic proclamations, are TO drive those who
refuse to recognize his divine mission into
the sea, to be proclaimed in the holy city OF
Mecca, and to destroy the false Caliphate at
Stauboul. He is equally hostile to the
Senoussi, the Sultan, Arab, and Mr.. Blunt
His only adherents are those who will take
the sword and kill all who refuse his faith
throughout the world. He is the successor
of numerous impostors who, not having the
fortune to be opposed By British statesmen,
have failed to achieve equal prestige. De-
feat alone can destroy that prestige.
