There has been curiously little comment fo the Press on Lord. Elgin's retirement from bis Majesty's Government, yet to those of us who knew and worked under him in fudia, his re- tirement sooms an event of na iliile import ance. The roll of fadian Viceroys contains many a great unma but do one filled that his office mare worthily then Lord Elgia. His me la Tedia was not a smooth one. Mahratts sedition and the Poosa murders" necessitated legislation which was personally distasteful to him. The Tirah War broke out with un- exampled suddenness. Thou a disastrous famine swept over the land; and this was fol- 'lowed by the onset of plague, which for a time seemed to threaten the whole fabric of HESE DOCKS are conveniently sitasted in Yokohama harbour and the attention of society. All these troubles were met by him
Pantages offered for Docking Promptly and with unruffed calms. None of s who were in dally contact with him, ever and repairing Vessels and Machinery of every 'description,
saw him lose bis head orihis temper. I only once saw him perturbed, and that was when a high official on one occasion had not played quite straight with him. Lord Elgin, who was always absolutely loyal to his subordinates, could not understand any one ha trusted being disloyal to him, In Council he was always judicial. He invited the freast expression of opinion, whether it accorded with his own

decision, but bore no grudge against those who differed from him; and we' ali kaow that his conclusions, whether we agreed with them or not, were formed solely with reference to what he conceived to be the right thing to de, without any thought of himself, or of how his proposed course of action would affect either his personal convenience, or his reputation. During forty- Jears of official life I have served under many good chiefs, but none of them have equalled Lord Elgin in single-minded devotion to duty and the State. I cannot speak from any per- sopal knowledge of Lord Elgin's work at the, Colonial Office, but it would be 'strange to those that know Kim if he did not display there" the same qualities that he displayed in India., In these days of sulf-seeking and sell-advertise-, | ment, the disappearance from public life of a statesman who was the very negation of those popular qualitiek must leave a blank which it fa difficult to fil, and his retirement is a matter which ought not to be passed over in silence.
"The · Spectator adds the following com ment:-
