His peculiar fitness for the office was urged on the ground of his acquaintance with Ireland and Irish affairsacquired while he was commander-in-chief there.

The latest of the rumors affecting :hjm connects his name with the governor-generalship of Canada. The reported intention of Earl Grey to retire early this year has given occasion for conjectural selections for his place. None, it is said, would meet with more general approval throughput the empire than the designation of the duke. For one thing, by reason of Connaught's relationship to the king, it would consolidate that "imperial partnership" which it is felt would make for the closer union of Great Britain with her domin-Jpns domin-Jpns over the sea.
