Abstract
In our August issue we ventured to express the opinion that any appointment to the Governor-General ship of South Africa other than that Lord Selborne would be received with grave apprehension by South Africa generally. The position of the new Governor-General was plainly to be of some difficulty, and Lord Selborne is trusted by all sections of the people in a way no newcomer could expect, for some time at least, to be trusted. this feeling of uneasiness was indeed manifested in various quarters when names began to be mentioned in connection with the post of Governor-General, and an organised movement was on foot to petition the Home Government in favour of Lord Selborne.
