TII PROVOOCATION, LORD CRANBROOK TO LORD LYTFON, Lonvox, Nov. 21,—Tho dispateh published by the Government from Lard Crunbrook, See- retary of Btato for [ndls, to Lord Lyttou, ls au indlctment of the forcigu policy of Gladstoue's Adiplutstration, and dofenso of the policy of the present Uovernment. It says the consfstent aln of tho British Government during a serles of years has beun to catablish on its northwest- ern border & friendly aud independent Btate, with lutercsts in unlson with those of the In- diun Goverument, and ready to act fu certaln eventualities as suxillary in the protection of the frontler from forelgn Intrigue or sg- gresslon. It was comsldered that the ob- Jects of the Britislh Governmeut would be best obtatued by winning the friendship and alllance of Shere All aud bis people by the friendiy recoguition of the existing order of thiugs and policy of non-joterference. The outposts of Russia wero then distant from the borders of Afghanistan, and his Lordship's Uovernment attacked no special inportance to the probabllity ana dauger of the growth of ths former Power fn the direction of India, which they considured would fn auy case best be ro- stratued or rondered fonocuous by & fricndiy uuderstauding between the Eogilsh aod Russlan Cablucts, aod early (n 1860 FRIENDLY NEGOTIATIONS were Injtlated ot 8t. Peterabury, which termin- ated {a & very distinet understanding sod in the recogoltion by the Czar’s Goverument of the liwite of the Amecr's territories in cowplcto accord with tle wishes of Bhere Al sud the British Government. The capturs of Khiva by thu forves of tho Czar in the sprivg of 1878, snd total suburdination of tbat Khanat to Russls, caused Bhere All considerable alarwn, and led hum to question the value of the pledges} with Afgbsulstan, which pad been given by the Czar to Eugland and commupicated by Eugland to the Amcer. Lord Northbrook was prepared to sssure the Awece that under certala conditions the Goy- / NOVEMBER 22, ernmeat of India wonld maslet him to repel un- provokoed aggresilons, but her Majealy's Gov- ernment at home did not.sharo his Highness' appreliensions, and the Viceroy ultimately fn- formed the Ameer that the discumion of the question would bt best postponed to a more convenlent season, , The effect of this sunounce- menton his Highness, although conveyed in conciliatory language, was not favorable. ‘1he policy which dictated it was unintellizible to bis mind, and e rocolved It with feclings of chagrin sud disappoiutment. His reply was couched In ters of ILI-DIRGUISED BARCASM, He took no notice of the Viceroy's proposal to |’ deputo a British officer to examine the north- ern frontier of Afghanistsn. He subsequently refused permission to; Bir Douelas Forsyth to return from Kashigar to india through Cabul. He lefe unwnched a gift of money lodeed to his credit by the Indian Government, aud gencrally assumed towards It au attitude of sulleu re- Berve, Such was the position of affairs when her ' Malcsty's prescnt advisers assumed ofiice. The maintenance of Afghaniscan, & strong friend, by power, had ot all tmes been the object of Hritteh policy. Tue method adopted in sttain- ing that object had not met with the sucvess that was desiruble, Its accomplishment was nevertheless a watter of mrave importance, and it bad now to Le considered with ref- erence 1o the rapid “march of events in Turkestsn. Iler Majesty's Government cottld not view with indifferenca the prubsble lafluence of thuse ovents upon the character of au Asfatic Prince, whose dominions were there- by brought within s steadily nsrrowlng crcle between two great military emplres, and, al- though no immediate damage upvearcd to threaten the Dritish intcrests.on the frontler, Afghauistan’s position n Centrul Asia has be- come sufliciently grave to sugecst the necessity of timely precautlon, % Her Majestv's Government considered that the first atep uecessary was the Improvemcut of ther relations with the Amecre himsclf, Conscquently, when Lord Lytton was seot to India be was instructed to offer tho Awmecr the protection he previously solicited, namely, substantial pecuniary ald, the recoguition of his dynasty, and a pledge of material suppurt agalnst unvrovoked forclmn egeression, condl- tionally upun the Amcunllnwlmi Hritish ngents to have access to positions In bis teeritory, ex- cept. Cabul, witere they could sequire truste worthy intelligence of évents likely to threaten thu tranquitlity and independence of Afgihants- tan. Huch access was necessary as n substantial proof of the unity of the Amect’s luterests with those of (ireat Britain. Thie abuortive euding of the mission of.Col. Bir Lowls Pelly is then narrated, aod the fucts are brought out that the OFYENS TO THE AMEER were exceediugly lliberal, oud demands upon him not oppressive, but he met both by re- hearsal of grievances 'datiog Ifrom 1872, and though negotiations st Peshawur were ter- minated by the death of the Ameer's Envoy, yet Sherc's Al's lang ¢ and conluct had been so lulmical as to jastify Lord Lytton in assuming that his overtures were Frmlnlly rejected, 'Tho Ameer persisted in his unsricndly isolation, and ultimnately, bLav- fog thres years ago declined to recelve a Writish envoy even temporarily within his terrl- tory on the ground that ho could not guarantee his'safety, and would not thercafter bo left with auy exeiise fur declinlng to recetve the Russian missions, he has weleomed with every appear- anve of vstontation an emnbassy from “the Czar dispatetied to his Court at atime wheu there were {ndications that theinterruptionof friendly tulations hetween this country snd Russis mignt be hinintuent.

THE PUBLIC HEALTH. Conelusions lteachea by the Yellow-Fever Investigators. Ricustonp, Va., Nov. 21,—At the seselon of the National Health Assosfation, Surgeon J. 8.

Second—That the preliminary conclusions pre- sented ore In sccordance with the prevailine opin- fons of the medical profeseion of this and other countrics, with the exception of that ting to disintection. Third—Tho method of investigstion puraned by the Commlssion i considercd satisfactory, and, i fact, the ouly one which could have bLeen em- ployed, so far av obtsining a history of this epi- degnic 18 concerned, “ourth—It is belioved to be of prest Importance that the investigation thtin commenced shonld be made as thorourh and complete & possible. in sc- cordance with the nethods of the Commlssion, The Cominitiee think it proper 1o observe that the Investization should take o much wider ranee, since what is desired s to obtain, If pos- sible, u knowledgo of the cause of yellow fever, —a knowledge which the most complote history of the epidemlc that can bo’made will not Lo able to furnish, It yellow fever is supposed to be due to nspecille material thing, ome means are desired of recogmiziug the prescnce of that tting other than the fact of the occurrence of the specific disease in hwinan subjects, and hence one of the first thibgs to be sought fs rome antmal or organism In which it may bo possibile to produce either vellow fever or some .peh:mu or recognizable cffoct of yellow-fever polson, In the accounts of yellow fevers are varfous allusions to the geconipanying pnenomena ob- served inantnl 1ife. Certain annfogies betwoen vellow fever and tho Texas or Bpanish cattlo’ fever have been polnted out, but us yet the test mentloned has not enly not been found, but it las uot been methodically sourht. It sppears, however, that thisis thelirst and most Importan step in tho investigation, I£ the current theories about yuellow fever are correct. Yellow-fever volson” may be developed by adding some one or more " uf the excretfons or tuids of polsons affected with yellow fever decomposing organic niatter under well-known conditions of tum perature and molsture. We have, then, to carry out the process of elimination to find out what constituents of decaying flith arc essential and what non-essential to the production of the +polsun, aud at the same time to scek chemical or tnicroseopleal meaus of recognizing the pres- chee of elther the cause of poison or polsun Itself, in order to get rid of the possible neces- sity of resorting,to the physiological test of in- oculatiou to }:mve its prescnce. 1n this briet sketell of what would be con- sidcred n satistuctory demonsteation of the cause of yellow fever, but one provisional hypo- theals, the prevmling sud popular one, bas been considered. Heveral others imust be considere:d and tested, but n each and all the greatest and first desideratum {8 an casily spolied test of the presetice of polson. It peeds but a mo- went's reflection to sec that tho period when sn opldemic Is raging Is uot the timu to carry ovut such researches, Probably the bést place to carry out such an {uvestigation would be, flrst, the City of Havane. It must bo clear that such In- vestigation will require tnuch time aod labor, and that its rosulta should be presented accowmn- panfed by clear and conviociny evidenve, Dr. Chiopodn, President of the New Urleans Board of llealtn, gave a listory of the {utro- ductlou of the yellow fever into New Orleaus In different epldewmle years, and showed {t was always imported.
