when the destinies of Europe are understood to hang

from whom we hoped so much—the meat servile of

there is, we fear, so doubt. In our opinion, it is r
less deer that we may blame ourselves, in grist
measure, fry the misfortune of being so misrepre-
sented at Florence, and thereby made shines in the
mischief and misery of encouraging the ruler of
Tuscany to act la. an Austrian analog his own
people. lard Nommator was helped byes to de-
ceive himself and the world. His political virtues,
being unlocked for, were crenated. We ought
to have mistrusted in him his lore of pleasure, his
inordinate vanity, his sentimental tern, and his life-
long descent from a certain robustness of character
to en ease-loving laxity. We were aware, from his
fart appearance in Parliament, of a zeelo-dramatic
tendency of sentiment and manners. We knew him
best es a third-rate novelist. We all saw that he
went upon his West India enterprise as upon a stage
where he was to win the applauses of a gazing
world. We all knew that in Ireland he was used
to fascinate the Paddies while the real work was
done by THOMAS DRI:MMOND, de idled haslet
