LORD BLEDISLOE’S CONFIDENCE. FUTURE OF NEW ZEALAND. By Telegraph—Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. Confidence in the future of New Zealand was expressed by the GovernorGeneral, Lord Bledisloe, at a valedictory gathering of the Royal Society of New Zealand to-night. His Excellency said he took a cheerful view of the future welfare and progress of the Dominion. Her people were blessed with perhaps the most perfect climate for white people in the world and had what was probably the finest and purest type of British people to be found in the Empire. Professor R. Speight, president of the society, paid a tribute of appreciation of the services of His Excellency to science during his stay in New Zealand, particularly with reference to agriculture. Dr. P. Marshall, president of the Wellington Philosophical Society, voiced similar sentiments.
