At a time when the consideration of the re- lations existing, or which should exist, between the component parts of the British Empire is in the front rank of the burning questions of the day, the book before us may properly be described as falix opportunitate. Its subject, As Dean Stanley said of him, "witnasand che successful accommodation of a more variad series of novel and entangled situations" than any other statesman of his time. The author. points out, in his preface, that Lord Elgin "was the first Governor-General of Canada to accept fully the principle of Colonial self-government; under him, too, Canadian differential duties in favour of Great Britain were repealed, and a reciprocity treaty was concluded with the United States. He was the first British Ambassador to ratify a treaty; as well as the Brot to conclu to make his way to the Chinees, capital, there

For this reason his biography is almost exclusively a chapter of British political history in scenes beyond the British Isles.”

"Be all the sons as senseless as the sire," wrote Byron, in his wrath; but his malediction signally failed of fulfilment, for the subject of this book was only one of a family none of dowed with brains.
