France has work at Hore which must sooner or later demand her attention. Apart, however, from those consideru tions, it seems to be a merciful inter- position of Providence that this expedition now reported as occupying Fashoda did not arrive at Khartoum during the advance of the Sirdar's forces. The present occupiers of Fashoda would, without a donut, have bei eititer killed by the Mahdi's followers, or been rescued by the Anglo-Egyptian troops. Either eventuality would have been unfortunate, end could not possibly be regarded as a creditable succese for the expedition. Of course, the international question that will naturally arise may be twofold. The appearance of such an ex- pedition-if it be there with the consent or authority of the French Government-may
