The honorable baronet does not understand the nature of these . There are persons in Egypt who we believe are witnesses for the crown.

The arrangement savors very strongly of: unfair- nesg, and bas the ugly appearance of a deliberate attempt to decide the sword question in an uuderband manner, ia accordance with the wishes and prejudices of certain entieen who shall remain unpamed for the present. it ig. a well known fact that a majority of the committoe, the originators of ths sword enterprise, and most of the parties connected with the affuir—even to the biand and suave young gentlemen who have charge of the voting books—are all very thoroughly imbuod with projudices in favor of one of the distin- guished generals whose names have been mentioned in connection with the sword. Is it not, to use the mildest language, in very bad tastc for such persons to place vhemeelves in a position where their acts will be open to such peculiar criticism?
