IMPROVED VIEW OF NATIVE AFFAIRS.
Referring to the Nat.ye Reserves Biil introduced in the Assemb y by Mr Bryce, the Wellington Post says : "The Bill was criticised freely and independently on both sides of the House. How thnroug-hiy party lines were ignored on this occasion may be imagined when it is mentioned that the 6upp' rters of the Bill included Messrs \lacandrew, Holmes, Dodson, and Sheehan ; its opponents, Messrs Conolly, Western and others. Whatever the resultL,may be so far a 9 the Bill is concerned, it is a most cheering sign to find native affairs at last removed from their very improper position as a party stalking-horse and placed on the right footing of an important national question. _Thjs,^ jtffiiydt; fjjfl ft^m jiiuniMiT Mill the settlement of the native difficulty will be a permanent one, ana that in a few years it will come to be looked on as wholly a thing of the past. In the interests of both races this is a consummation devoutly to be wished.
