We publish in our correspondence columns a letter from Mr.
C. J. Rhodes which should finally settle the controversy between "C. B." (Mr. Charles Boyd) and Sir Henry Camp- bell-Bannerman. Mr. Rhodes has sent to South Africa for the correspondence the allegation as to the existence of which Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman described as from begin- ning to end a lie," and will when it arrives forward it to us. We have dealt with the matter elsewhere, and will only say here that it is clear from Mr. Rhodes's letter that the cor- respondence exists, and that it is of the nature described by Mr: Boyd, who tells us he has seen it with his own eyes. We May add also that Mr. Boyd's letter was by his desire sub- mitted to a third person fully cognisant of the matters with which it deals, and that the person in question found nothing to alter in the letter.
