Dr. Morrison anys' that “Reforms already, effected are remarkable and an unmixed benefit to the people." One would suppose that the Times' would be interested in publishing A-list- of these remarkable reforms-at least a list of t them, even if there be no particulare given. But Dr. Morrison does not give a singlereform already effected, not one. He has much to say about the railway, but a railway is not a reform. We admire it as much as anyone, but we see in it a business proposition cariled out solely for the benefit of the Japanese..it must incidentally, be of great advantage to the Koreans along the route, but we cannot include it in, any list of reforms.
