The Secret of England's Success.
Speaking at Wanganui, his Excellency the Governor, referring to the victorious campaign in the Soudan, said that they in England were only a little nation, yet over
three hundred millions of Britiula subjects all over the world owned the British flag. It was a strange thing that some forty millions of people should have so large a number outside their gates, and a stronger thing still to think that thisbffi> population was entirely in sympafflly with the Mother Country, and that they were kept true to the flag without the necessity of having a single soldier among them. where _was there a British soldier in New Zealand, or in any of our sister colonies ? How, then, did England govern ? She governed by love and not by force, and therein was the secret of her sacce3s. (Applause.)
