It redeems the policy of this country from those aspersions to which it might otherwise bave been exposed. It lifts it above the charge of selfishness. It is intinct with a sentiment of wine philan- thropy: It shows that even an instinct of combativeness may take a benevolent turn, and, instead of doing mischief, may work out good by its exercise. Even if it should come to little as a practical measure, none can deny that it is opportuno at the present moment. Its effect at home has resembled the setting of a dislocated joint.

REPRESENTATION OF GREECE AT
THE PROPOSED CONFERENCE.
(Illustrated London News.) A new and an extremely satisfactory light has been thrown upon the polley of her Majesty's Government in relation to the Eastern Question by the confirmation given in both Bouses of Parliament on Monday night that Lord Derby has pro- posed to the Powers about to meet in Congrons at Berlin that Greece should be represented therein. The admission of this faot elicited warm and unanimous cheering in the House of Commons. The diplomatic announcement of it at Athene is said to have produced "a profound sensation." We are not surprised at this. There may have been prudential reasons for not having previously pablished the resolution of the Queen's Government. Now that it is published, there can be no sufficient ground for concealing the relief which the country feels in the fact somewhat tardily. disclosed. It indicates much more than it immediately promitos. It disperses, like the dawn of a new day, the mists of suspicion which, until now, hung over the proceedings of the Cabinet. That these excited doubt, anxiety, even fear, cannot be dented. That there has been a
