Memory itself scarce ly suffices to

the personal kindnesses of which I have
been the recipient, proud as I feel of the
honor done to my office, moved as I have
been ky the devoted atlection shown for
our Queen and for our common country,
no one is better aware than myself of the
imperfect return I have made to the gen-
erous enthusiasm which has been evoked.
If, then, gentlemen, I now fail to respond
in suitable terms to the toast you have
drunk, if in my hurried replies to the in-
numerable addresses with which I have
been honored, an occasional indiscreet o1
ill-considered phrase should have escaped
my lips, I know that your kindness will
supply my shortcomingsâthat naught will
be set down in maliceâand that an indul-
gent construction will be put upon my
hasty sentences. (Laughter.) But, gent-
lemen, though the language of gratitude
may fail, the theme itself supplies me w ith
that of congratulation, for never has tlie
head of any Government passed through
a land so replete with contentment in the
present, so pregnant with promise in the
future. (Cheers.) From the northern
forest borderlands, whose primeval recesses
are being pierced and indented by the
rough and ready cultivation of the free-
grant settler, to the trim enclosures and
wheatsladen townships that swell along the
ikes, from the orchards of Niagara to the

is this very combination of sentiments
which appears to me so wholesome and
satisfactory. Words cannot express what
pride I feel asan Englishman in the loyalty
of Canada to England. [Hear hear. ]
Nevertheless, I should be the first to des
plore this feeling if it rendered Canada diss
loyal to herselfâif it either dwarfed or
smothered Canadian patriotism, or gener:

however, is far from being the case.

on board to give thena any information in

account they have failed to comply with his

these heavy charges, if they can be met, and
the reputation of the illustrious traveller

of these damaging accusations; but we cans

the personal kindnesses of which I have
been the recipient, proud as I feel of the
honor done to my office, moved as I have
been ky the devoted atlection shown for
our Queen and for our common country,
no one is better aware than myself of the
imperfect return I have made to the gen-
erous enthusiasm which has been evoked.
If, then, gentlemen, I now fail to respond
in suitable terms to the toast you have
drunk, if in my hurried replies to the in-
numerable addresses with which I have
been honored, an occasional indiscreet o1
ill-considered phrase should have escaped
my lips, I know that your kindness will
supply my shortcomingsâthat naught will
be set down in maliceâand that an indul-
gent construction will be put upon my
hasty sentences. (Laughter.) But, gent-
lemen, though the language of gratitude
may fail, the theme itself supplies me w ith
that of congratulation, for never has tlie
head of any Government passed through
a land so replete with contentment in the
present, so pregnant with promise in the
future. (Cheers.) From the northern
forest borderlands, whose primeval recesses
are being pierced and indented by the
rough and ready cultivation of the free-
grant settler, to the trim enclosures and
wheatsladen townships that swell along the
ikes, from the orchards of Niagara to the

is this very combination of sentiments
which appears to me so wholesome and
satisfactory. Words cannot express what
pride I feel asan Englishman in the loyalty
of Canada to England. [Hear hear. ]
Nevertheless, I should be the first to des
plore this feeling if it rendered Canada diss
loyal to herselfâif it either dwarfed or
smothered Canadian patriotism, or gener:

however, is far from being the case.

Sir Samuel Baker has appealed to his other

account they have failed to comply with his

these heavy charges, if they can be met, and
the reputation of the illustrious traveller

new interest will attach to it in consequence
of these damaging accusations; but we cans
