I S5 These have not been handed over by the Grovemment. — Ed. GENERAL GORDON'S JOURNAL. 319 do not know if ever the Expeditionary Force will come here, and I do not know the policy which will be pursued ; but there is one thing I think I am justified in demanding, that is the disbandment of these brutes, to whom only yesterday I gave a gra- tuity of fifty dollars to erect their breastwork — a to- tally unnecessary proceeding on my part. Of course if I can hand over the Government to the Expedi-... tionary Force's Leader I have nothing to say; he can do as he likes. What irritates me is, that a row like this is aided and abetted by every officer, inasmuch as it is to me the row is brought, they daring not to decide ; of course it must be seen that, situated as we are, if one corps can take rations for a month and eat them in a fortnight, and then get more, it is virtually giving double rations to the troops, for if you gave to one part, all the rest would want it. November 20. — A caravan of 300 men and twenty camels came up the left bank of the White Nile, from the direction of Metemma.
