Lord Roseberry on Australian Federation.
[Received December 11,12.30 p.m.] Sydney, This day.
Lord Roseberry was present last night at a dinner given by the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly, and in replying to the toast of his health, spoke highly of the importance which must be attached to the late Intercolonial Convention, as marking a distinctive epoch in the history of the Australasian colonies. In its resolutions regarding the convict question, the Convention, Lord Roseberry remarked, spoke with a power which could not be claimed by the colonies individually; the Convention spoke to the whole world as the mouthpiece of au united nation, determined to take its part in future events, and determined to control the present as regards its individual self.
