OTTAWA, April among the motives for
appointing tho Marquis Of Lorno TO be Gov
ernor-Gcncral OF Canada there was probably n
spice OF imperialism. Some OF the English Jour
mails spoke as il he was going to govern the coun-
try in some new md unknown way not Il was
darkly hintcd altogether unlike the discarded
practice which existed before tho era OF rcspon-
sbc government. when the colonial policy was
dictated by orders from Downing street. Whom
Philip !. sent the Archdukc Albert to tGkc the
Govcrnorship Of the Netherlands. with prom
Use Of his royal daughters hand. he intended Co
confer upon the royal pair tho sovereignty OF
tho country. Before tho several provinces OF

writer's throw out tho hint that the intended
change would find its best completion by cstab-
fishing on the banks of the Ottawa. n branch Of
the royal family. 1t is not probable that Boa
consield had any serious thought that this
could DO done when he appointed as Governor
tho husband OF the Queens daughter; but he
may have thought ii would not be dispensing
to the Queen II he throw this chance in the way
Of Canadians. Nor is Il at oil certain that tho
Marquis was not appointed at the express do
sire Of the Queen. The Governor-G enoralship
docs not offer much room for stAtesmanship
though the tact and good nnture of tho Earl Of
Dunorin proved to DO very useful qualities.

himself at sea in an emergency In which Lord
DuGern would have been quite at homo.

known. the organs OF the two factions have been
predicting. as if they had some special informa-
ton on the subject. what the Governor General
would and would not do. The partisans of tho
