Ermin Pasha and the Mahdi.
IRON tAe Iimesl

Mr.. Stanley's letters have descrIb.
cd in the most vivid way the *.
petition which has succeeded in res
tuing Emin Pasha and his European
companions from the dangers that
surrounded them. The story, how.
ever, would have been incomplete
unless we could have heard some-
thing about those dangers from th 9
men who were the prime cause of
them. This is our good fortune
this morning, by means of the let
ter from the Mahdi's General, Omar
Suleh, to Emin Pasha, of which
Mr.. Jephson succeeded in obtaining a
copy. This copy, translated from
the Arabic by Emin Pasha, was for
warded to MIR. Stanley, and comes
with his other papers to Sir William
Mackinon, the Chairman of the Relief
Committee. The interest of it ia extra
ordinary for it is the longest and
most authentic account that we
possess of the pretenfons and the

.66.A5, an against SIT, and $3.50 at cores
pOnding period last year. In st. Andrew
the Rainfall for the month was 1896 divi'
ded over "A days, which is about the
average. The weather is described as
every delightful and splendid" The first
crop canes are represented as every fne,"
and perhaps the heaviest the c0rrespon-
dent remembers to have seen. The ra.
toOns are said to have improved mu CHI
during the month, and with suitable wea.
Their in December and January may yet do
we'll. There is a fair prospect of a good
sugar crop next season. The preparations
in all the parishes have been put out of
hand in a mastery name Planting has
been general. Planting.in manure is
being literally and wisely applied Oh
many estates.
The average Rainfall for the week end.
cd 9Th inst, as recorded at the Police
Stations, was 2.61 parts and for the week
ended 10Th ms, 1872, viz, Central st alton
49,; Dis B. 3'98; G. 1896; D. 4'85 /; E.
2.35; F. $40; Holetowu 3.17.
The Produce shipped up to the 18th
inst amounts to 65,8O4 hhds. of Sugar
and 44,523 puns. of Molasses, as against
72,489 hhds. of Sugar and 43,432 Pun
cheons of Molasses at the corresponding.
period of last year.
The Shareholders of the Sugar Estates
Company have certainly cause to congra.
tulate themselves on their venture. They
bought their first estate just in the nick of
time, caught a ripe crop on it ready for
the bill with a young crop planted and
were favOured by an unexpected rise in
the price of sugar. The handsome divi.
demo that has recently been declared has
evidently melted the Directors of the
Company to renewed activity, and We are
glad to see by q notice from them which
appears in another column, that they pro-
pose shortly to purchase another estate.
They ask those who are thinking of taking
shares to do so as soon as possible, as the
size of the estate they will purchase will
depend largely on the number of shares
taken when they make their selection.
Aud, clearly, the larger the estate they
are able to buy, the more likely are they
to succeed in getting a good profit out Of
it. We are pleased that a scheme which
from the very first We have so strongly
commended to our readers support should
have succeeded so we'll. Doubtless the
Company was much favOured by the rise
in the price of sugar this year and we
Rpprehend it's shareholders will not soon
again be tiCkled by so good a dividend.
But there is reason to believe that we can
make sugar as cheaply in this island as
anywhere else on the face of the globe,
aud we opine that SO long as it is prOfta.
BILE to grow the sugar cane anywhere it
will be prOftat le to grow it here. The
Company seems to us to afford as safe an
investment as is consistent with the max.
ing of any considerable profit. The Sc.
curity it offers is certainly immeasurably
superior to that of any junior mortgages
for in it all stand or fall together, and
share and share alike. We wish it we'll
too for this reason beSides-that it seems
to us to present q means whereby persons
Of small means amongst us might get a
hold on the land Of this island and pre-
vent it all slipping gradually into the
hands of AhSentees.

who, apparently himself playing the
role of a prophet in his tent, has yet
succeeded in rnusing The whole of
the Eastern Soudan, in spreading
destruction from Suakrn to the tqua-
tor, in OverIhrowing a relatively
settled Government, and in beating
back the advance of civilization, as
we understand it, for at least a gen.
eratiom We have teard of the
Mahdi 'ill now rather by his acts than
ny his words. His messages to
Gordon, the letters forwarded by his
lIeutenants on the Nile and the Red
Sea, We're brief and quite lacking in
detail. Here however, we have a
full stntenlent of his p~retensi0ns, anil
of their Justification in the deStruc-
ton that has fallen upon his enemies;
we have the list Ol his victories,
which agrees very curiOu~ly with the
facts AN we know them, except in II
or two points. The Mabdi overrates
his power in Abyssinia, where, 80
far as is known, his success was
Shmrtlived and, with pardt able
e~xaggeratiOn, he gives a different nc
count of the end of Lord WoISley's
expedition from what British paIrio-
tism cares TO admit. The adven-
lures of The letter Itself are highly
interesting. 1t arrived, in the charge
of three "Peacock" Dervishcs, when
Emin aud Mr.. Jeph<on were priso.
ners in the hands of their rpbellious
soldiers at Duf16; it was opened by
Inc rebel officers, "who, aftf~ tor
turing the MahdIs three envoy&\ 10
get information from them, had
them beaten to death with clubs
This throws II lurid light on the cha
racter of the wrelches in whose
power Emin Pasha was aud if any
further doubt could exist as TO the
reality Of the dangers surrounding
him, this little incident should set it
at rest. Honour should be paid to the
faithful son of Osman Efendi LaIif,
Vakeel of the Province, who %"enter-
ed the rebel divan at great risk
secretly at night and copied the let
ter" Had he not done this coura-
geous act, the world would at this
moment he without the most con-
plete version of the Mahd7s history,
written from his own point of view
that as yet exists.
The letter is without date; hut as it
was rrcpivedon October II, 1888, it may
be assumed to have been written not
many weeks before that time. 1t is,
as might have been expected, a curl
Gus mixture of religious philosophy,
very direct narrative, and very practi.
cal exhortation. 1t doubtless repeats

law-abIdlng citizens OF our city for the
kindly aud earnest support they had CIV
en- him In his effort 10 enforce the laws
aud reform the morals Of our city, lie
said that whatever his opponents might
think Of hia official acts he had done his

that the good and true fully approved his
