ENGLISH OPINION.
LONDON, Jan. 13.--The Netcs thinks tho
Marquis of Salisbury was justified In his
proceeding with Portugal, but that he has
made an awkward precedent. There is
not much reason to be proud of
such a diplomatic achievement, while
there Is something to dread in its ultimate
consequences. The NetOs has an interview
with Senor Comes which precedes his recep-
ton of the British ultimatum. He said he
conceded that much is possible in view of
the exigencies of public opinion If Eng
land is not satisfied Portugal must suffer.
IL England presumes on her strength to
despoil us the breach will become an abyss.
The surrender of the Nyassaland district
would seal the death warrant of the prov

bark for Mozambique forthwith.

tude taken in support Of them.
