BONORUNG, FRIDAY, FEBRUARI 7, 1800,

It is well-known that the condition of the College has been for years past engag ing the attention of the Government and of the Secretary of State, and it is na uien secret that the views of the Head Master are not in accord with those of is superiors in office. Bofors we en- ter, however, upon this phase of the question, it may be well to congratulate the Colony upon the proceedings at the Prize-giving hold yesterday. Nover since H. E. the Governor has assumed the duties of his righ office here has ho spoken so well as be did when address. ing the boys of the College on this occasion. It was a most important speech, and there was evidence in it of a wholesome grasp of his subject, and an independent masterful tone, about it which was all the more welcome because it is not so often made manifest as it might and ought to be.
