An Historic Photograph. — We have received from Messrs. Constable and Co.

an interesting reproduction (enlarged) of a photograph of the Council and Secretaries of the Government of Lord Lawrence while Governor-General of India. The photo- graph is extremely clear and well printed, and the faces of the very remarkable body of men gathered before the camera thirty- four years ago are easily recognisable. It would be difficult to find a collection of heads more obviously those of men meant for rule and high conimand. The group will interest all old Indians.
