Towards the end of the 17th | century a wealthy bachelor decided to bequeath his fortune to the first of his | E relatives who welcomed him hospit- ably; so he took horse, and called first | on the chief of his clan. But the din- ner bell had rung, and no entreaties | would induce his kinsman to admit | him. The next relative he visited was the Duke of Queensberry, who, despite that he also was at dinner, welcomed | him with 'open arms, invited him to the table, and altogether so satisfac- torily entertained him that, some time later, his very considerable estates were added to the Queensberry do- main.

Comes to the Office by Right of Birth --On Both Sides He Springs From Statesmen Who Have Rendered the Empire Distinguished Services In the Colonies--Colonial Crisis on at His Birth, Of Lord Figin, the new Secretary of State for the Colonies, it might be said that he comes to the office by right of birth. On both sides he springs from statesmen who have rendered to the Empire very distinguished service in the colonies, and he himself was born In the chief colony. His father was that Lord Elgin who was Governor- General from 1847 to 1854, and his mo- ther wad Lady Mary Loulsa Lambton, daughter of that Earl of Durham, who held the office of Governor-General and High Commissigner of British North America in 1838 It is ease to ' done \ by the present Earl of Eigin's father and by his maternal grandfather. The lat- ter's penetrating pind went to the real | cause of the rebellion, and in his fam- ous report, which the Imperial Gov- ernment in part acted upon, he laid the foundations of responsible government If to Lord Durham is to be glv- en the credit of prescribing the princl- ples of responsible government and having them established by the Act of Union of 1841, to his son-in-law ls to be given the credit of putting these principles into working order, a task of uncommon difficulty. Lord Durham found a remedy for the ills that had produced the rebellion. It was for Lord | Elgin to apply so much of that remedy as the British Parliament had adopted. Born During Colonial Crisis. Tord Rlgin's efforts to administer the country in the spirit of the new Consti- | tution brought a storm about his ears, and the late Loyalists were incensed to something of the violence the rebels had shown. Elgin held unwaveringly to the principle that the majority must rule, no matter how little he might sympathize its policy or its acts When he e his assent to the Rebel wsses Bill the indignation of all who had opposed the idea of indemni- tying who had taken up against the Sovereign broke ou his way fr Parliament Hous Montreal tc home the Governor- General was pelted with rotten eggs, mud and stones On the same night the Parliament Building was attacked and burned All this, of course, was | the work of a mob, whose excesses the | leader of the Opposition strongly con- demned. The outbreak was on April 1849. On April 80, on his way to | and from the hall in which the Legis- was assembled, Lord Elgin was assailed, and "Monklands," suburban residence, was threatened For weeks he did not leave his house It was in this trying time, on the 16th of May, 1549, that his eldest son, the present Lord Elgin and the new Sec- An excellent picture of the lad, standing beside his father, is reproduced in Prof, George M.

After the destructipn of te Parliament Buildings and the furthey demonstra- tions of the populace, it was decided that Montreal should no longer be the peat of Government The remaining sessions of the existing Legislature were held in Toronto. Lord Elgin, we learn from Mr. John Ross Robertson's "Landmarks of Toronto," arrived In that city by boat on the 9th of October, 1849, and was rather {ll received. Here he made his home at "Elmsley Vila" which stood on the site now occupied by the Central Presbyterian Church In his "Toronto of Old" Dr. Scadding mentions that Lord Elgin was a regu- lar worshipper in Holy Trinity Church during the time of the rebullding of St. James' Cathedral after the fire of 1849. During the earls residence in Normal School was built Montreal being the city | of his birth, and Toronto the city of | his early infancy, the Secretary for the Colonies should have a warm place In his heart for them did not see eye to eve with his father.

Thelr great- ness ls largely the result of the con- cession to them of self-government From the new Secretary we shall ex- pect an administration of the colonies along the lines followed by Mr. Cham- beriain and Mr. Lyttelton. These two statesmen showed a recognition of the importance of the colonies such as few of their preflecessors showed. Lord El- gin can be trusted to be duly consider- ate of the dignity of the self-govern- ing colonies. Commercial Views.
