We announce with regret the death of Lord
Brougham, which took place at his seat at Cannes, in '
the south of France, suddenly on Thursday night.
The venerable peer, whose age is one of the most un-
certain points of contemporary history, but who is
stated with probability to have been born in the
year 17791, had been in the habit of taking his car-
riage airings every day since the fine weather set
in, and even did so on Thursday afternoon. He
returned at his usual dinner hour, and retired to
rest between eight and nine o'clock, in his usual
health and spirits. As was customary, some of
the domestics before retiring went into his apart-
ment, and to their astonishment found him dead
in his bed. The telegram received from Lord
Bronghaa's brother, who wu staying with him at
Cannes, states him to have " died in his sleep."
The first glimpse we have of Brougham is as a
student of the university of Edinburgh, and a
member of the Juvenile Literary Society, es-
tablished by the students for purposes of
literary exercise and debate. He, and his
friend Francis Homer, were distinguished mem-
bers when they were only fifteen.
About February, 1802, three of the young
company of philosophers—Jeffrey, Sydney Smith,
and Homer—had projected the Edinburgh Re-
view. It was not long before Brougham was
invited to join. He approved of the plan at
first ; soon changed his mind, and withdrew ;
changed again, and wrote those articles which gave
the Iteview the early character so well expressed
,by Hominy at the time. " The editors seem to
value themselves principally upon their severity ;
land they have reviewed some works, seemingly
with no other object than to show what their
powers in this particular line of criticism are."
In 1804 Jeffrey wrote to Homer that Brougham
had " emigrated." "So he writes me, but with
what view he does not explain." The emigration
was to London, and his view was the practice of
the law and political life. He entered parliament
in 1810, by the assistance of Lord Holland.
His first signal triumph in the house wu in
his speech on the Droits of the Admiralty,
in January, 1812. It was an important subject ;
and that sech did much to put an end to the notion
I that the Droits of the Admiralty were the private
patrimony of the Sovereign ; but what Brougham
, enjoyed was the opportunity for inveighing against
royal vices, which were quite bad enough at that
time to make it appear good patriotism to expose
them. This was a function of patriotism which
suited Brougham exactly, and he seized every op-
I portunity of exercising it. At the end of the same
year, on occasion of the trial of the Hunts for libel,
he had a fine field for his vituperative powers, and
he so applied and harped upon the words " effemi-
inacy " and 'cowardice" that Lord Ellenborough,
, the judge, lost all temper, declared that the de-
fendant's counsel was inocUlated with all the poison
of the libel, and charged the jury that the issue they
had to try was whether we were to live for the future
under the dominion of libellers. The taste for
Ivituperation grows by what it feeds on, and the
pinal= soon found that their splendid young
advocate went too far. In 1816, when there was
every chance of the ministry being left in a
minority, and going out on the question of the in-
crease of an Admiralty salary, Branham spoiled
I all by an outrageous attack upon the Rent,which
emptied the house of many of the best supporters
of opposition. He was so vehemently reproached
on that occasion that his personal friends began to
exhibit and insist upon his services to many good
causes ; and truly those services were already
great. Wilberforce called him " a labourer in the
! vineyardfll on account of his effective attacks on
I West India slavery. He denounced the wrongs of
Poland, so as to trouble the peace of the despets of
I Europe •• and be had begun that series of appeals
lon behalf of popular education which will ever be
his best title to grateful remembrance.
He largely aided the establishment of Mechanics'
Institutes, begun by Dr. Birkbeck ; and to him we
' owe the London University and the Society for
the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge.
' Ten years after Mr. Brougham had endangered
his prospects for life by his advocacy of the
Queen's cause, he received the highest
honour of his life. Under the excitement of
the French Revolution of 1830, and of the acces-
sion of a new sovereign at home, and in the joy of
having carried catholic emancipation, the men of
Yorkshire made Brougham their representative.
He said himself that he had now arrived at the
pinnacle of his fame, and so he had.
When the announcement was made the next
November that Brougham was to be the Chancellor
in the Grey administration, everybody laughed.
Much of the laughter was pleasant, with exultation
in it, as well as amusement ; but curiosity and
amusement prevailed. He had said that he would
not take office, and that he was no equity lawyer,
so the anti-reformers quizzed him on account of
his new trammels, and said it was a pity
the new Lord Chancellor had no law, for then he
would know a little of everything. His appoint-
' meat was excused only on the ground of political
exigency; but he disappointed expectation aa much
on'the political as he possibly could on the legal
ground. He was Chancellor for four years ; and
during those four years he made no available at-
tempts to accomplish any of the popular objects
about which he had said so much before he was
able to act.

His law reforms were thenceforth his only titles
to honour • and very great honour they deserve.
We owe to Lim much of the reform which has taken
place in the Court of Chancery ; he gave us those
local courts which go some good way towards
bringing justice to every man's door. It is with
, these reforms that posterity, in a mood of gratitude
and goodnature, will connect the name of Henry
; Brougham. For the last twenty. years or
more of his life he sighed for that simple name
as for a great good that he had thrown
1 away. He longed, as he said at public meetings,
and far more pathetically in private, to " undo
the patent of his nobility ;" but if he could have
become a commoner again, he could never have
recovered the popular confidence and admiration
which endeared to him the days which he had spent
in opposition.
When he was still a youth, his friend Horner
requested a correspondent's opinion of his physi-
ognomy. That singular physiognomy was soon
. familiar to all the world, in all civilised countries.
Those who saw it alive and at work could not doubt
that his faults had a constitutional origin which it
would have required strong moral force to over-
come. That moral force he had not. One of the
noblest traits in his character was his attachment to
his venerable mother. She deserved everything from
him ; and he never failed in duty and affection to
her. During the busiest days of his Chancellorship
the wrote to her by every post. Happily,
she died before his deepost dements were made.
He married a widow lady, Mrs. Spalding, by whom
he had two children—one of whom died in early
infancy, and the other, a daughter, in early youth, ,
after a short life of disease. His and
estates, therefore, pass to the family of his ther,
William Brougham, late Master in Chancery, the
former under special remainder in the patent of
creation.
