The first in stance of censorial manipulation of a poetical quotation-the deletion of the words "and tho kings" from a phrase of Kipling's-lias been follow ed by numerous similnr instances. One of the most amusing of these is described by the Times. "Wo published yesterday a first hand account of the fighting at IIul lucli on October 13. In the cpurso of it our correspondent, describing thu storm of bombs, shells, gases, and other means of destruction which fell upon tho enemy, was rash enough to quote Browning's. 'Twenty-nine distinct damnations, Ono sure, If the oilier falls.' "His message was duly submitted to tho Censor, who passed lt without ma terial alteration-except for the Browning quotation. "Now wo cannot pretend to fathom the military reasons which rendered it indiscreet to quote the toxt of a great poem os Its author wrote it. Whether tho suggestion that our methuds of destruction numbered twenty-nine would give Information to tho (1ermaus, or ?whether strict accur acy rcfusod to coantenanco tho Im plication that they were so numerous, or whothcr too precise a familiarity with Browning was calculatod to de press tho peoplo of this country, or to shako their confidence in tho govern ment-in short, whatever the motive of tho censor may have been, 'wo can only record tho fact. And the fdet la that, tho words, 'bwonty-nlne dis tinct' wore neatly ruled out and : the singlo word 'different' insorted in stead of them. Wo do not complain. Incidents far less trivial and far moro damaging to our national reputation are dallv fcaturoo of tho Censor ship." HARDFIGHTI?G .

The size of German forcee operating against Serbia is fixed at 150,000 ac cording 'to an authoritative statement. Tho number of prisoners they have captured is surprlslgly small. The Austrians admit officially that they are able to capture only 20 Serbian officers and 6,000 men. The small number of officers taken here suggest, there must bo many civilians among tho prisoners.
