LONDON. THURSDAY. NOV. 30.
Tna untimely death of CHARLIE BULLER, and the
zineaectednese of the event, are sure to excite uni-
grief and sympathy. But under any circum-
stades it would have been keenly felt, for no public
man el the day was a more general favourite, or more
deservedly. His candid and amiable disposition con-
ciliated the liking of all who came in contact with
hiss, and his solid abilities, maturing and. tidingxp
as the circle of his experience enlarged, ga pro-
mise for the future.
In the poor-law department hie loss will be severely I
felt. To sound and enlightened views, that placed
him above the errors of an ill-regulated or fanciful
sentimentality, he added • sincere and cordial kindli-
nese of disposition. He was exactly the man to adjust
in their due balance ,justice to the public and charity
to the individsaL With • will quite strong enough
to enable him to take his own way, be combined a
elesnmad et temper, an imperturbable good humour
then sallied him, in doing so, to give the least pee-
d& Amis. A talent and temper more happily
adapted to being to rights the ravened skein of poor-
law babe^ to snare and live down captious and
vexatious eritidem, it is difficult to conceive.
Bat hb loss will be felt in wider and mere oomph-
ceded peblic relations, and that to an extent which
those who look only to the loud and outward struggles
of party are little aware. CHARMS BULLER was one
at these rich and deep natures whose unapparent S-
isson tar exceeds their apparent activity •and
pastime.
Under the deportment of • joking poeo-eurante,
ensues BULLER veiled an ambitious and energetic
I mind. In early boyhood daring and even turbulent,
permanent bad health had , since be wrote Man, ren-
dered that occasional indolence, which he to some ex-
tent affected, in part real. Like his friend Lord Dun-
Han, his energy was somewhat spasmodic and inter-
mittent. But though his activity sometimes slum-
bered, his ambition never did. He remained at times
inert, when his friends could have wished him to
have been otherwise ; he allowed himself at times to
be passed over (as in the colonial appointments when
his party last came into power) with seeming
apathy ; but he never ceased to look forward to the
time when his due pl,ce would be conceded to him.
In the constitution of his mind the illustrative
preponderated over the logical fortifies. This wee
in
seen • striking manner during the debates in the
House of Commons on municipal reform, when it
would have been difficult to decide whether he er
Mr. ROEBUCK distinguished himself most ; Mr. Hoc. '
BUCK by his felicitous demonstration of the abstract
principle ; Mr. BULLER by his lucid and com-
prehensive illustrations of the development and
importance of municipal institutions in practice.
In the course of his public life he enjoyed ample
opportunities of informing an intellect so consti-
tuted by experience and observation. The part
he took in promoting municipal reform has already
been adverted to. As chairman of the committee
of the House of Commons on the Record Com-
mission he rendered essential service towards its
amendment. But the attention which be devoted to
colonial matters and colonisation contributed more
than anything else to advance his position in public
life. He was cognisant of all the efforts and experi-
ments in colonisation which have been made since
1830; and this it was that recommended him to
Lord Duanax, when that nobleman made him his
chief secretary on proceeding to Canada. His
sabsemint practicein colonial and Indian ap-
=before the Judicial Committee of the Privy
extended and systematised his experience.
There was no public man of the day who knew so
mach about colonial affairs, and entertained on the
whole such sound views regarding them. While he
held the dike of Judge-Advocate he evinced great
aptitude he nehmen and had a principal part in the
remodelling at the Mutiny Act. At the bead of the
poor law kerd he added to his reputation as a prac-
tical efficient statesman. Step by step he was
worthily winning his way to the very highest honours
of an Anal comer.
There is no need to mince the matter; CnARLEE
BULL'S was a party man, bat of the beet kind. He
entered parliament as member for the rotten
borough of Wad Loos. Since the Reform Act passed
he repressated the not very populous and rather
manageable borough of Liakeard. Be was an avowed
and serviceable member of the whig party. He did
not throw himself unreservedly ea Zarki he
