FOURTEENTH EXHIBITION OF COLONIAL-GROWN FRUITS. CCxlili 



Dominica in sending me personally some grape-fruit plants, which are 

 alive, and which I hope will some day give me frait, and so make 

 a slight addition to the horticulture of this country. When we 

 meet in common fellowship representing one and the same Empire, 

 we all have the feeling of the Mother Country and her daughters, that 

 splendid assemblage foreshadowed in Elizabethan days and realized 

 to-day: "England she stands with all her daughters around her, 

 mistress of the seas, and heiress of the lands beyond the seas." That 

 heritage has come to pass; and when we speak of the great advance in 

 the world of common citizenship, I think we may say that we are 

 fulfilling a mission to the world in transmitting from this small centre 

 to the utmost confines of the globe the sense of power and the 

 privilege of British liberty and love. On behalf of the President, who 

 was obliged to leave us a few minutes ago, and on my own behalf 

 and that of all the Council, I thank you for drinking this toast, and 

 will only add that we know no greater pleasure than welcoming our 

 friends from beyond the seas.
