Lord Dufferin's Address to Edin burgh Students.

GBIAT BRITAIN PAST- AND

PRBSEHT.

The Ifarqaii of Dufferin and Ava delivered the customary address as Lord Rector ©f Edinburgh University in to® M'Ewau Hall before an audience thai filled th® buildlog to it«s utmost ©ap&eifcj.

In the course of his address the lord Rector expressed his regret that he had not been able to address them ftl ao surlier period of hie term of office i bat» greater domestic anxiety, following spon a still greater domestic calamity, compelled him to rely upon their indulgence to pardon his delay. He conveyed to them, in the most earnest words he ooald rotiimand, his gratitude for the great honour they had conferred on him. They had been good QBOQgh to advance an ' outlander/ one %bo In the days 0! Jmies the Sixth wonld have been disrespectfully de •oribed as ' a mere Irishman/ and whose claims to their favour he him i«lf well knew to be bat dubious, to an oiSce tbat would never cease to be coTeted by the greatest men of the day. Since they were on the point of entering Into the possession and en joy men! of their kingdom, it might inter est them to take a survey not only of Its nature and extent, bat of the pos sibilities attaching to its future de velopment, and here he might safely assert that, notwithstanding the pass ing cloud of the South African trouble, no generation In the history of Great Britain had ever stood upon the divid ing line which separated two centuries tinder more auspicious skies, or adorned with a more attractive prospect.

THE STAIDABD OF POLITICAL MORALITY.

With regard to the present stands.rd 0! our political morality, though in some reapeots ib might be said to be improved), if carefully examined the improvement would be found less con siderable and lees genuine than might al first eight appear. Votes were do longer purchased to any great extent with hard cash, but there were only too many candidates who were ready to boy their seats with promises to give away the pro*, pefty of other people. It was true they endeavoured to salve their con iciences by ambiguous qualifications, wfaiob ihey knew woald be accepted by Iheir audience in a total y diflareot sense from that which they themselves affected to mean. Nay, he was con fiatsed that more than one Ministry had Introduced and carried measures in Parliament in the vain hope of con ciliating disaffected classes, which they could only have persuaded themselves to'be jast by an effort of mental gym nastics little short of heroic. He 'doubted, too, whether consiatedcy—a loyal adherence to what was called principle—was considered so obligatory as It nsecf to be in old days ; the evil genius of opportunism—that was, the acceptance of a policy by those who really disapproved of it because they Imagined it was imposed upon them by an alleged inevitable necessity? though that necessity mnsfe of corarso be a matter of conjectures-was obviously creeping into oar political system ; while the terms of a compronaiep, accepted today by on entire political party as binding, a few years latpr were shamelessly broken and scattered to the winds, Nor was inconsistency with avowed and vehemently asserted opinions regarded in the same odious light in which it used to be held. Tn former day§ a change of front pro duced by an eminent Individual ex posed him to unmitigated censure at the hands of ' everyone, and was at tended by the most agonising struggles within the breast of the culprit-. " In recent timea, howevpr, we had sepn public naen of light and leading leap from one policy to its op« posite, not only without compunc tion but with abaolafce hilarity.

THE WAB.

To return, however, to seme of those problems in whisfa thoy themselves would probably aoon be^ln to take an intelligent interests The first! which might occur to their minds wag the ■ettlementof Booth Africa. Though the war lad entailed toe sacrifice of so | r considerable & number of valuable lives i and had been signalised by aa maeh ■ piliantry and cndarance as had ever &©BB Sxhibifced bj Britons tliooeh in | had cost us and was crying us millions and was employing a larger army that bad ever been transported across the ocean by any nation ; be did not think | it would be classed by history ai other j than a military episode, la our eyeg.j the casualties assumed terrible propor tions, because the telegraph and the daily papen were perpetaall? present log them to oar notica ; bat Wellington in his assaoltg on Badajoz and Oiadad Rodrigo lost, in a few hoars, almost as many men as b~d been sacrificed daring a, whole year of this African war. In deed, he was convinced that if the telegraph, war corrsspooden a, and the jpre eat parpphonalia of sensational newspapers had then existed, he might; never have been allowed to finish his Peninsular campaign, and certainly after Bargoa there woald have been wild clamorara for bis recall, Bat after all, what was happening in South' Africa was an exact reproduction of what happened in Barmah, and was the obligatory outcome of the pecu- Ikrlttfs of tka contest and the ar^a in which it wag being wajEfed. In glnocing at these questions, however, be did not propose to pnfirgest their eolation, for controversial subjecfe w?ro best avodeJ on snch an occasion is the preeent, Mb objoct being merely to pre pare their minds for their consideration. In referpnee, however, to fchia particuUr topic, he urged them not to be disturbed by the onfriendly commsnts of the European newsptpem. TVy bad in the Srst place h^en galled by tha most oat rageoas lies, « cerfaio number of them were basely vena', and «H wcr® inspired by a very natar«l feeling of en?y and jealodsy of this country.
