WHAT THE WORLD SAYS.

It may be confidently asserted that there will be no
dibolution till after next session. Islrd Beaconsfield
has arrived at this decision alter due deliberation and
consultation with the nest authorities. Dissolution is •
penal set which this House of Commons hes done nothing
to deserve. An unnecessary dissolution would be an act
of hiss ingratitude. But beyond this the reasons against
it greatly outweigh any in It. favour. As the Ql3ollll's
Speech has told us, the Berlin Treaty has been carried
out, the Afghan campaign is suceessfill, and the Zulu.,,
is probably at an end. But egneultural depression has
• deplenished the pockets of county members and of peers
who pay the contests of their sows and friends, The Iron
wed coal trades have also alectsl Parliamentary finances.
With a tolerable harvest and the revival of trade, signs of
which are not wanting, exchequers may be reinforced •,
and next year members are much more likely to dud
what is called a " happy and contented people."

and it is coolidently hoped that in the future it will not
be necessary for the tenor to be chained, or for the diva to
be put between two stout policemen, previous to their
joint appearance in • love song.

Sir Frederick Perkins has turned a courteous but deal

Om soldiers at the Cape, drawing comparisons between
the present war and the late campaign against the G.i

is • met difference, they say, between the two wars. "In
the last campaign we had to go into the bush and kloola
to look for the Kaffirs; but in Zululand the enemy come
and look for us."
