It is at real pleasure te rcad his latter, simple as thlat of a boy, for it enables the reader to under- stand how the English won, and why they continue to hold, their position in Asia. Mr. MacMunn had been ordered to mnarch with fourteen men, of whom, fortunately for him, twelve were Coorkhas, to convey some stores, principally rum, from Myitchrna te Sadon, a smali fortified post in Burmaýh, a distance of about fifty miles.

Cattie, horses and hogs were kept in large.numbers ând allowed to mnn at will upon the range. One day in ridiag over the m,-sa an. oddly assorted trio was found in a locality at a considerable distance fromn any other animais. This trio was made up of a cow, a horse and a pig, and all three were feeding side by side in the most amie- able manner. At flrst it wias thoughit to be nothing more than a- coincidence that the three mernbers of different fa-niiies shouald happen to be kcgether, but snbsequentiy it turned out that this trio had evidently set up an alliance offensive and defensive against ail the other animais on the range. They were always together. It was a comi- cal sight te se the oddly assorted trio tra- velling over the range.
