To attract the nobler spirits of the nation into the public ser-~ vice, the government and of Great Britain have wont to heap upon those who have rendered distinguished public services not only great emoluments but high personal honors. That this policy has been a wise one isevident in the re~ sults. No matter now important the occa- sion or great the crisis, Great Britain has never been withouta man of dietinguished ability to meet it. The world-wide weil governed empire of Great Britain has been built upand organized underthe leadership ofable, and honest and courageous men who have been publicly honored for their well-doing. Wein Canada wil! make no mistake if we follow, as far as we can, the example of the Mother Country in this re~ gard. Inour fierce political fights, able and honest men are sometimes met by floods of misrepresentation and obloquy. Ascompensatioa for this, it is pleasing to the public man to bave such expressions of appreciation and regard as that of Jast evening in which men of botd political parties aud al! shades of religious belief unite to honor one, who wihavever mistakes he may have made, has exhibited prudence and honesty and has done his country good service. The banquet in honor ot Mr. Laird reflected credit upon
