The prizes having been awarded,
Sir CHARLES WOOD addressed the gentlemen
cadets, and said that he had derived great plea-
sure from attending that examination to witness
the ability. with
which they had passed through
their examinations in the task which the public
examiner, Sir Frederick Smith, had imposed upon
them. He was still more pleased when he referred
to the report of Sir Frederick Abbott, the lieute-
nant-governor, who had stated that their conduct
had been most excellent during the whole of the
term. He was more acquainted with the affairs
and circumstances of India than when he addressed
them the last time, for, unless the conduct of their
officers was well regulated, it might cause a flame
in India, which could only be quenched with blood.
Therefore, on the good con duct of their officers
depended the consolidation of their Indian em-
pire, which could only be done by obtaining an
influence with the natives of India through
their own good conduct. They must acquire the
goodwill and confidence of the natives of India,
which could never be obtained unless they proved
to them that, while England governed their coun-
try, they governed it for their own good.
The Duke of CAMBRIDGE said that he rejoiced
to have the opportunity, through the invitation of
the Secretary of State for India, of being present
that day, although he had been there once before,
but it was so many years ago that he was almost a
stranger, to bear testimony to the admirable and
conscientious manner in which they had attended
to their duties, and which he trusted would prove
to their advantage in after life.
