NEW SOUTH AFRICA.
THE DUKE ON THE FUTURE.
fly Telegraph-Press Association-Copyright. Cape Town, November (i. At the official dinner at Government House, the Duke of Connauglit, in a ■lengthy speech, said that the occasion marked the first great stage in the growth of the youngest of the unified seli-govornmg white communities which were. united together in the great partnership of the Empire. From now onward South Africa would rank equally with the older partners of the Empire in possessing a singlo Parliament to deal with the affairs of the country, which by its nature was intended to be an important one. It bad reached the vant-age-ground from which it was profitable to survey the dark, lurid pages of the past and read what could be read of the iuture. South Africans would grow up in an environment of truo liberty, and bo filled with, a patriotism akin to that love which Britons, Canadians, Australians, and New Zealanders had for the countries of their birth, and instinct, like them, with a. wider patriotism which made all aliko co-partners in tho brotherhood of the British Empire.
