With regand to the expreasions used by your Excellency in the beginnlug of your letter, referring to the friendly character of the mis- sfon and gvod will of the British Government, I leave It to your Excellency, whose wisdomn and Justice aro univorsally admitted, to decide whether any rellance can be placed upon the good will, It evidenced by words only. But if, on thé other nami, zood will really conslsts of deeds, then It has not been manifested by the varions wishes expressed and proposals made by the British oflictals during tho last fow years 10 the officials of this God-granted Govern- ment, proposals which from their naturc it was impossible for them to comply with. Une of these referred to MY UNDUTIFUL 80N, the fll-starred wretch, Mahomed Yakoof Khan, and wae contained fn a letter addrpssed by oflicals of the British Government agent then resfding at Cabul. I was written jo that letter that, It Yakoof Khan bs relcased and set at liberty, our fricadshiv with Afghaniston will be Ormly cemented; otherwise It will not. There aro several other gronnds of complalnt ol a slmilar nature which contain no evidence of Kood will, but which, ou the contrary, were ef- fective In increasing the aversion and appro- hension already entortained by the subjects of this God-granted Government. With regard to my refusal to receive the Hritish mission, your Excellency has stated that it would appear from my conduct that I was sctusted by feelings ot dlrect hoatility towards the British Government. 1 assnro your Excellency, ou the contrary, that the ofiicials of this God-granted Goveroment fn repulsiog the misslon were not influenced by any hostile or fnimlcal fecllngs towards the British Uovernment, nor did they intend that apy fusult or affront should be offered, but they were afrald tuat the independouce of this Government might be af- fected by tha arrival of the misslon, and that the Iriendablp which has now existed between the two Uovernments for several years MIQHT BN ANNIUILATED, A paragraph in your Excellency's Ietter cor- roborates the statements which they bave made to this Goverument, 'The feeliogs of apprebon- slou arouscd o the miuds of the people of Af- ghanistan by the mere announcement of the fn- tention of tho British Government to send o misslon to Cabul beforo the wmisslon fteclt had actuslly atarted or narrived at Pesha- wur havo subsequently been fully jus- tifled by tha statement in your Excelleucy’s let- ter that I should be held responsible for any injury that might befall the tribes who acted as guldes to tho mlssion, aud that I should be called upon to pay compensation forany loss thoy might bave suffered, and that It atany tima thoso tribes should meet with 1l1-treatment atmy hands the Lritish Governmeot would at once take stcps to protect them, Had those apprehonsions proved groundiess, and had the object of tho mlission been really friendly, and no fores or threats of viclenco used, the mission would, as & matter of course, been ALLOWED ¥REE PASBAGE, as such missions are of customary and frequent occurrence between allied Btates, . 1am now sincercly stating my own fealings whea I say that this Uovernment bas tain- tained and will always mdintain the former friendship which existed between the two oy ernments, and cheristies no fecllngs of hostility or oppousition towards the Britlsh Government. 1t Is ulso Incumbent upon the officlals of the y._ |\British Governmeut that, out of respect and con- alderation for the grestuess and eminence of their own Government, they should not consent to foflict any fnjury upon their well-tisposed nelghbors, or to impose a burden of wriovous troubles upon the shoulders of their sincere friends; but, on tha cofitrary, they should exert thetnselves to malotaln the frisndly feclings which has bitherto cxisted towarls this Uod-granted Government, lu order that the rulations betweon the two Guvernments may re- maia ou the same footing as heforv, and §f, in n:cordance with the custom aof allled Htates, the British Uovernment should desira tu send s purely fefendly and temporary mission to this country, with a smalt escort mot exceeding twenty or thirty members, similar to that which attoudod the Russlan mission, this scrvaot of God will not oppose its progress, KHOJECK PABS, Lanoug, Dec. 9.—A reconnolssance showing that Khojeck Pass Is pot defended, Uen, Bid- duiph bas been ordered to occupy it THE AMEER'S FAMILY, Br.

Checkered Career of the Ileir to the Afghan ‘Throne. . ¥ Landon Times, That time brings its own revenge has long been accepted as a trafsm, and cortaluly its truth was nevor better exemplified than In the person of the young Afgban Prince, known tothe world as Yakoob Kban, The character of Ya- koob Khan shines out from among that of ail his countrymen, not only as the most shle and the most intelligent, but aleo as the most court- cous, the most moderate, and the most rofined. The life of such a man Is a ssudy in {tself, and itn recital will arouse sympathy in tho hearts of all true lovers of brava decds aud noble actions, is Nfe (s also contorminous with the most eventfal portion of modern Afghan history, and his carcer s closcly fntertwined with the for- tunes of Shere All Yakoob Kalin was born fn or about the year 1840, of & unoble mother. Ilis tirst appearance in public life may ba said to be the occasion when he dotccted the European beneath the disguise of the dorvish, and despite the flnency and nervo of Arminlus Vambery. That wasin November, 1863, when the Afghan Princo ap- peared to the traveler *a good-bumored, ‘inex- perienced child.”” Hinea then, whether ho has retained his good humor or not, he Lias unnlnl)" acquired a vast experience of life's vicissitudes. His carcer in the history of his country com- menced very shortlyafter his Interview with the Hungarlan traseler, for In 1804 Bhero All's brothers disputed his possession of the crown, and Yokoob Khnn was feft in commnand at tho recently-captured fortress of Herat, White Bhere ANl was carrying on the war with = vary- ing fortune, victorious at Kujbbaz, routed at Shafkhabad, losing nis eldest son (n the former fight, and deserted by his best Gen- eral, Mahomed Rehk, on tho eve of the latter, but In the end expelled from_Candahar and all the eastern country, Yakoob Khan was slowiy but surely consolidating his rule over Herat and Fegral, and nrnrltlulnm {n 80 Inr as he was oble, the northern Khan of Malmenc. BSolt haopened that whan Shere Al suffered his last overthrow buoeath the walls of thlnH-fluu{l ond fled to Herat, he had not ahandoncd all hope of restoring tha dectining fortunes of his cause. During three vears Yakoob Khan had preserved peace In the west and had restratned the Persians, and had sent many o welcome contingent of hardy troops to the scenc of bat- tle in Candahar and Cabul. Thore was yet ona chance left, but the degreoof anceess that might be attained no lonzer rested with Shero Alf, In the tleld of battle ke had been worsted both by Azlm and Abderrabinan, and his own reputation had become dimmed by disaster. “The fate of Cabul trembled in the balance, when its real arbiter advanced on Candabar in the early days of 1808, 'Thas city foll at once alter a sharp fight in the outakirts of the town, and then once more Candabar bacame Blere Alf's basa for tha reconquest of Cabul, In the meauwhile the disintegrating causes in the con- federacy of the Barucksal brothers were begin- ving to becomo manlifest. On Afzal’s death his younger brother, Azlm, sclzed tho reins of nower, and relegated Abderrshman to the minor post of Uovernor of Balkh, Ills own son, Bur- war Khan, bad Just boen driven out of Canda- har by Yakoob Khan. Abderrahman's bostility was acareely concealed to his uncle Azim, who evidently desired to found a dynasty of his own, and Abderrahman, knowing the ability of the man, must have dreaded the contlugency as al- moat Inevitable. - Whatever claims Azim may have .uad to the admiration ol his countrymen #s a wise statesman, he for- feited by nis tyranny once he came to supreme control, - 8o at first the juint arny of Bhere All and Yukoob Khan encountered little opposition, Cabul, alter an absenco of more fhan threo years, was entered in trlumohl, and south of tne Hindoo Koosh thero remained no_rebel, Azim, in tho meanwhile, had fled to Balkh to Join nie nephew, and in the face of the mreat emergency "‘V cach agreed to forego thelr Jealoustes. With alarge force they advanced againet Cabul, but thelr adversary hsd been niure, prumet.‘ : Yakoob Klau held the Bamian I'asd as Chuy &tiié forth from the Sighan Val- ley, and worated them in g oltehed encounter, But they found their retreat cut off, ‘The Khan of Mainicne had declared for Bhere All, and was operating in theie rear, ‘They had no hope loft now, except in maklng oue desperate rush on the Capltal and surprising Shicre All. But each of their schemes were frustrated. “They eroased the Hindoo Koosh by a pass to the cast of Bamlan,” but Yakoob Khan was close be- uind, driving them before him. Past Cabul they tled withi the youna chief hot on thelr track until they turped to bay in sheer despalr Iu the nelghborhood of_Ghiznl Routsd there, they fled for safety to Persia, whore Azim died, and Abderrahman passed on to Khokand and the Russian territory. ‘Lhe flve years' war hud at Iast terninated, but {ts ctose braught credlt to Yukoob Khau alone.
