Among all our "victories in Nileland none has been really greater than this; we have de4royed a system which was nothing less than slavery in disguise. Even Sir Wilfrid Lawson and Mr. Labouchere must now admit that our occupa,ion of the country has produced some benefit to the inhabitants.  WE heartily endorse the action taken by Dr. Danford Thomas with the view of getting inquests held elsewhere than in public-houses. The present custom is a disgusting one, and to the interest of nobody but the publican. Years ago there was some reason for the practice, when the tavern—the old respectable tavern or inn, mind, not the modern gin palace—was often the only house in the parish where a public assemblage could be conveniently held. Now, every parish ought to have its mortuary and inquest-room, whew the Coroner's work could be properly performed. Our own correspondence columns have more than once bcrne witness to the inconvenience sustained by witnesses and others who have to attend these inquiries. It is really too bad that a young widow or daughter, in a case of suicide or sudden death. should have to pass through a gspinc crowd of half-tipsy loiterers who are patronising the landlord, who, also, usually derives a harvest from the jury and witnesses as soon as thc.: inquest is over.  THE victory of the German Government in the Pat Itamentary elections is. on the whole, a subject for legitimate satisfaction. Not that we, or anybody else, are glad to hertr of the imposition of fresh military burdens upon the long-suffering people ot Germany, but because the result of the elections to the Reichstag is decidedly favourable to t• e chances of peace. The German electors had been warned by Bismarck and Moltke that a defeat of the Government would inevitably mean war, _ _  and, therefore, now that the Government has  I Wawa an announcement to make which will be issue(' 1 triumphant from the struggle, we may mesisest with the greatest satisfaction by a certain reasonably assume, on this high authority, that the siseetal the community.
