that end, as the surest foundation for higher
University
Now, sir, the very language of the report
itself con3inces me that it does look forward
to this University as the grand result to be
attained That is the idea which l wish to
eliminate from this report. l agree with the
gentleman who said he was really anxious
to vote for it. l am anxious that this report
shall pass, but not in this form. If we can
correct it in such way as to leave out all
that commits US to the establishment Of a
University, and leave the future to the pro-
violence of God, l think we can act with
uuanimity.
The hour of adjournment having arrived,
the report went over as unfinished business,
During the above debate, the order of the
day for the reception of Drs. Todd and
Yantis, delegates from corresponding bodies,
arrived, The speeches of these delegates,
and the responses of the Moderator will be
published hereafter together with the ad-

We cannot see why Disraeli recent speech, in
which he is reported as saying that Queen Vic
toria is physically and mentally incapacitated
from reigning any longer, should have occa-
stoned CONSERVATION, as the cable account saws
ut did, unless it was the result OF his boldness in
first expressing in plain terms the unspoken and
unwritten belief of hundreds of his country
men, London papers which some time ago
hercely attacked the Queen for her continued
absence from The capital, have lately intimated
that she was not in condition ''to see COM
pany." A correspondent of the n. Y. World
significantly says that when the Queen is more
than usually affected in her mind they always
send for Lady Churchill, and that lady is now at
BalnOral: also that the scrofulOus disease under
which her Majesty is suffering is of a very per-
sistent, dangerous and malignant nature, and
that fatal results may ensue at any moment; and
he adds that "there is awhisper that the military
maERuvres now going on at AldershOt have
some reference TO possible outbreaks that nav
occur on the announcement of her Majesty,s
death, and that the presence of the Prince of
Wales with the army was considered expedient
for the same reason" These stories NAV be
exaggeratiOns Of the actual facts, but they are
very significant as showing how the wind blows.
