The speech will refer to the great efforts which have been made to secure the establishment and maintenance of order in Egypt, and self-government for that country, together with the safecy of the Suez Canal, and at the same time to observe the obligations due to Europe, The approval of the Great Powers and agreement of the Sultan are firmly anticipated to the policy which has been pursued. The speech will express strong hopes that the labours of the Danubian.Commission will result in a satisfactory settlement of the questions at issue, and that good results will follow the re-instate-ment of King Cetewayo in Zululand. The following measures will be announced as the proposed work of the ensuing session : — Bills for the .Codification of the Criminal Laws, and for regulating the proceedings in the Court of Criminal Appeal ; for amending the Acts relating to bribery at elections, and renewing the Ballot Act. The other proposed measures deal with the Municipality of London, local ' government, floods, bankruptcy, and patent laws. The speech, in a reference to Ireland, will state that considerable improvements have, been manifest insthe condition of that country, despite the efforts of the secret societies to set law and order at defiance.
