THE BRITISH DESPATCHES.
NATION INSPIRITED.
WEARY WAIT FOR NEWS.
Times and Sydney Sun Services.
(Received October 21. 8.30 p.m.)
London, October 20.
The Times, in a leader, says: "After weeks of weary waiting the nation has had the satisfaction of reading two immensely interesting despatches from Sir John French. We see no reason why the first, dated September 17, should not have been published earlier. Tho Government must remember more constant!}* the millions who watch and wait. While puzzled by unwonted silence and apt to misunderstand it, they will boar any strain with calmness and fortitude so long as they know that in due season they will always be told the truth. The whole country will be inspirited and nerved afresh by these despatches."
