Mr. Fonblanque's utmost efforts to dissipate these gloomy
impressions- were fort considerable; time, we are told,
" wholly fruitleSs, nod he gladly' availed himself of some
excuse to seek for Mr. Charles Buller, with whom he
almost immediately returned to their desponding friend."
They afterwards dined together—his companions accom-
panying Mr. _Sheil'heme—and spending the greater part
of the next day with.him in the same manner. "It was

care and jtsdicions kindness of his gifted and Considerate
compapionF.., 014 he at length regained somewhat of his
accustomed buoyancy and self-possession." The sequel
may be soon'related. A committee, having Mr. Grote as
its chairman, was shortly afterwards appointed by the
House of Comniens, to inquire into the entire transac•
tion. •

only installed Prime Minister of Euglautt, at the bend of a
powerful and well-organised Administration. During the
three years which followed the inauguration of his ()Ai,
net, numerous and remarkable relaxations of the restric-. -
tire code were introduced, and ultimately, by an unexam-
pled act of self-sacrificing civiem, an act of matchless
daring and unparalleled magnanimity, the-once Protec•
tiouist Premier. by a single master stroke of patriotic
statesmanship, effected the triumph of Free Trade over
Monopoly in the midst of the throes rind ' contentions of
hiS own Protectionist; Parliament. Within the interval
which elapsed, however, between the commencement of
the systematic relaxation of the restrictive code in 1842,
and the final and comprehensive repeal of the Corn-lawn
in 18 ire two memorable struggles in reference to Ireland,
her agitators, and her population, attracted the attention ,
(for the time being almost exclusively) of both the English
multitude and of the English Legislature. The first of
these may be slid to have culminated on the 7th of
October„-18:3, when by the suppression of the last
of O'Connell's monster meetings, that which had
been convened by his uncrowned Majesty, the Libe•
rater, :to
.be hell at Clontarf, an end was, put to
the system called by him that of "moral force," or,
in other words, of open intimidation—and, immediately
on the arrest, some days later, of O'Connell, his son and
six other persons, on a charge of conspiracy, the famous
we might call there, more accurately nowadays the infa-
tnous, Irish State Trials, commenced. They commenced
on the 12th of February, 1814, before Chief Justice Penne-
father. Each of the defendants had his separate counsel
Richard. Shell appearing on behalf of John O'Connell.
Thus it was, as Mr. Shell himself observed in the House of
Commonslongafterwartle, that" the wi.rld beheld the leader
and liberator of-a Catholic nation tried by a jury exclusively -
composed of Protestant tradesmen who were absurdly
called his peers"--and afterwards, as the orator continued
in alluding to the course taken throughout the whole of
that iniquitous trial—" At last" said he, "the long series
of ignominious proceedings terminated in a discomfiture
of the Government, of which there was no former exam-
ple—terminated by a denunciation pronounced by the
Chief Justice of Eagland,from the highest seat of judica-
turdin the world, and in the conversion of the porch of a
prison-house into an arch of triumph, through which the
most remarkable man in Europe,, whom they hart the
temerity to call a 'convicted conspirator,' was given back
to the embraces of an enthusiastic and devoted people." The
other contest in relation to Ireland in which about this
time Mr. Sheil, as we have said, participated, had refe-
eence to the important question known up to the pre-
sent day through fanatical bickerings, still sanctioned in
all their pristine bitterness, as that Of the Maynooth En-
dowment. A sum of 9,0001. had, from the foundation of
the College of Mayuooth in 1795, been annually rated in
the estimates for its support as the nucleus of Irish educa-
tion.
Sir R. Peel proposed, in 1544, that in order to pro-
vide more adequately for the instruction of the Catholic
priesthood in the sister country, the amount should be
raised to 26,3601. per annum, chargeable upon the Conso-
lidated Fund, with a special vote at the same time of '
30001. additional to be dedicated to the repair and
extension of the great national establishment. Mr. Shell
warmly supported the propositions of the Prime Minister
throughout • and as a kindred spirit gave a partial support
likewise to etre other measure of intended conciliation intro-
duced during the same session, by Sir James Graham, that
having for its object the foundation and endowment of
what O'Connell, on the contrary. reprobated in the
strongest terms as the scheme of the three " Godless Col- -
leges," combining in that epithet the disfavour previously
pronounced upon it'by Sir Robert Harry Inglis as " a gi-
gantic scheme of Godless education."
Domestic afflictions soon afterwards compelled Mr. Shell
to withdraw awhile from the arena of politics, hurrying
him from London, on the 10th of September, 1845, in the
illusory hope that failing health of his only son might
perchance be restored under the influence of a winter's
residence in Madeira. Arriving in that island with his
beloved invalid on the 9th October, the sorrowing father -
had to see all his cherished hopes dashed to the earth on
the 10th of the ensuing month of November, when be
stood by the death-bad of the youthful sufferer, then in
his twenty-third year, and had soon afterwards to follow
his remains to their premature place of interment. This
"untimely removal" of his son, we are told by the bio-
grapher, "cast a deep and lasting shade over the remain-
ing years" of Richard Shell. The distant sounds of party
contention in England corning to him in the remote haunts
of his bereavement, at length roused him from unavailing
regrets over the young man's grave in Madeira. The cele-
brated letter written from Edinburgh, on the 22d of No-
vember, 1845, by Lord John Russell, had enforced in a
remarkable manner the declarations of a precis ly similar
kind, which actually had been previously made in Council
to his ministerial colleagues by Sir R. Peel. The temporary
dissolution of the Conservative Government resulting from
these occurrences, followed by the ineffectual efforts of the
Whig leader to construct a Cabinet, in which Lord Grey, at
the last moment, refused to take office by the side of Lord
Palmerston, seamed to promise Sheil the chance of the
speedy return of his party to power, and to open up to him
in that case, if he were only present, a reasonable proba-
bility of advancement. Accompanied by Mrs. Shell, he
sailed for Cadiz on the 22d of April, 1846, proceeding
thence by ordinary`stearner on his return to Southamp-
ton. Everybody knows the marvellous changes which had
by that time been effected by these recent events in the
Constitution of the Lower House of Parliament. The
disruption of the great Conservative party having left (Mr.
M'Cullagh here reminds his readers) its Protectionist re-
sidue without any recognisable champion until the time
when, as was wittingly observed, Mr. Disraeli in-
vented Lord George Bentinck ! At length the
ever-memorable Government of Sir Robert Peel
came to an end, the Free Trade Premier being defeated by
a majority of 292 against 219, in the House of Commons,
on the second reading of the Coercion Bill—whereupon_
as a matter of course, Lord John Russell was empowered
by the Queen to construct a new Administration. Mr.
Sheil had the gratification of learning, on the 2d of July,
1810, that the Mastership of the Mint (one of the offices
known to rank next to the Cabinet, an office, in fact, which
had sometimes been held by Cabinet Ministers) had been
reserved for his occupation. At the general election of
1847 he was once more selected as their representative by
his old constituency of Dungy roan. The subseqent events
of his history are too vividly (because so very recently) in •
public recollection to require them to be bore enumerated
seriatim. Enough if it is observed that on the 4th of
November, 1850, the Right Honourable Richard Shell
was appointed to proceed to Florence as British Am-
bassador. In accepting that high diplomatic position
he had to resign his place in the House of Commons, to
vacate his post as a member of the Administration, to
abandon altogether his eminent position as a Parliamentary
orator, distinguished among the most distinguished. But
Sheil was beginning at last to yearn for repose, his years
were falling into the "sere and yellow leaf," he was ap-
proaching the sixtieth anniversary of his birth, and al-
though his faculties were still, if not in their first bloom,
in their full and ripened perfection, he looked forward
with pleasurable anticipation to enjoying their continued
exercise thenceforth in a genial and honourable retire-
ment. Before the close of the November of 1850 be paid a
hurried visit to Ireland, in December he returned to Lon-
don, and passing through Paris on his way to Italy, ar-
rived in'Florence about the middle of January, 1851. Here
it was, on Sunday, the 25th of May, 1851, that Sheil ex-
pired, in consequence of a sudden aggravation of the dis-
ease (gout) by which he had - been then for some time
grievously tortured. His funeral obsequies, performed in
the,Church of St. Michael at Florence, livwdays after the
date of his dissolution, were repeated nine months after-
wards, on the 24th of February, 1&52, in the parish church
in Gardiner-street, Dublin, on the return of his remains in
a Btitish ship of war to Ireland—prior to their removal to
their last resting-place at Long Orchard. So lived and so
died Richard Sheil—poet, orator, patriot, statesman, di-
plomatist—beginning life as a demagogue, and ending it as
an ambassador.
The luminous pencil of Leigh Hunt has thus sketched
the appearance of Sheil as it was not very long before his
departure for Tuscany :—"I then saw before me one of
the little great men of whom . one reads so often
in history, and I thought how well in spite of time and
the gout, his conversation answered to the idea given of
hini by Lis speeches—l mean as to life and freshness—for
he did not attempt anything rhetorical. I little thought
so much vitality was about to be extinguished." Hetr,

"The committee have no hesitation in declaring their de=
liberate conviction that the innocence of Mr. Sheil, in respect
of the whole matter of complaint referred to their investiga-
tion, is entire and unquestionable."
Immediately upon the perusal of the report, Lord Al-
thorp apologised to the member for Tipperary, and Sheil
himself, rising to address the house, amidst loud criesfrom
all parts of it followed by profound silence, referred in
befitting terms to Mr. Hill's request for his forgiveness.
Subsequent events need here but a rapid and cursory
enumeration. Mr. Ward's motion, of the 27th May,
1834, in reference to the Protestant. Episeppal Establish.
ment in Ireland "carried confusion among Ministers"—
causing, in fact, the memorable secession from the Cabinet
of Mr. Stanley, Sir James Graham, .Lord Ripon, and the
Duke of Richmond. Then came the finit-, up of the
vacant offices by ,Mr. Spring Rice, Lord Carlisle, Lord
Auckland, and the Marquis of Conyngham. The difficitl-
ties arising out of the necessity for the renewal of the
Coercion Act, brought about, in the July following, the
substitution of Lord Melbourne for Lord Grey as Prime
Minister, the obnoxious measure being virtually passed in,
a new form en the 29th of that month ; but the rejuvinated
Cabinet surviving only until the 14th of the next No-
vember. The elevation of Lord Althorp to the peerage,
upon the death of his father the Earl Spenser, afforded the
King an opportunity for bringing about a total change in
the character of the Government. Than, it will be re-
membered how Sir Robert Peel—the " groat man in a
great position," was sent for to Italy, " summoned from
Rome to govern England." The dissolution of Parliament
was the inevitable consequence—'Jr. Sheil being again re-
turned, in the general election which ensued, as one of the
members for the county of Tipperary. Successive defeats
—on the 19th February in the choice of a Speaker —on the
26th on Lord Morpeth's amendment to the address—and
on the resignation of the ambassadorship to the Court of
tit. Petersburg by the late Marquis of Londonderry (a
resignation consequent upon Mr. Shen speech of the 13th
of March referring to the appointment)—failed to impel
Sir Robert Peel and his colleagues to resolve upon tender-
ing their resignation to their overeign. Nevertheless, to
the adoption of this painful course they were ultimately
driven, by the success after four nights' debate in the
House of Commons of the motion introduced on the 30th
of March by Lord John Russell (and ultimately carried by
322 against 289) in reference to the Irish Church Establish-
tnent. Three several resolutions, moved upon this sub-
ject by the noble leader of the Opposition, completed the
discomfiture of the newly-inaugurated Cabinet so effec-
tually that, after an interval of just six months' duration,
Viscount Melbourne was again at the head of his Majesty's
Governmeet--TLord John being Home Secretary, Lord..
Palmerston, Minister for Foreign Afaira, the Marquis of
Lansdowne, Lord President, and Mr. Spring Rice,'
Chancellor of the Exchequer. Then came what was
called (by a perversion of a phrase of Mr. Shell's)
the celebrated " Lichfield House Compact," meaning the
determination arrived at by the various sections of the
Liberal party assembled at the house of Lord Lichfield,
in St. James's-square, first to leave the ballot an open ques-
tion—and, secondly, to adopt the well-known appropria
Lion clause in the Irish Tithe Bill, Later on, consequently
upon a motion made by Mr. Shell on the 6th of March,
1835, the notorious Orange Society was at length dis-
solved, much to the chagrin of the Duke of Cumberland.
It is here observed of Mr. Sheil in reference to hie Par-
liamenteSey struggles, that while'" he seldom spoke of Sir
Robert Peel and the Duke of Wellington otherwise than
with marked consideration and deference ; against Lords
Stanley and Lyndhurst the arrows of his sarcasm were
incessantly directed, and rarely without effect." In tes-
timony of which, particular reference is made to that
.speech delivered by Mr. Sheil in the House of Commons
ou thc 23d of February, 1837, which was deemed at the
time his '"greatest oratorical effort in Parliament."
It related to Lord Lyndhurst's insulting mention of the
Irish people as Aliens.• We here give the illustrative com-
ments pronounced upon its c,elivery by the biographer :-
"Lord Lyndhurst was present during the delivery of this
speech, and`upon the marked allusion to his well-known
words of the preceding year, every eye was turned Upon
him. Kindling with the excitement he himself produced,
and yielding to the dramatic impulse of the moment, as he
indignantly reiterated the word Aliens,' the orator waved
his hands reproachfully towards the spot where Lord Lynd-
hurst was sitting. • The effect of the tone in which the word
was uttered, and of the gesture by which it was accompanied,
is said to have been indescribable. The whole house gave
way to conflicting emotions, and as no intelligible sound
could be heard for many minutes in the storm of cheers and
exclamations, many on both sides arose from their seats in
their curiosity to observe the expression of the speaker's
countenance, and that of the distinguished object of his re-
buke. Order was not without difficulty restored ; and when,.
-at the termination of the splendid passage with which the
orator eoncluded, ho sank back exhausted into his seat, the
enthusiasm and. applause broke forth anew, and continued
without intermission for an unprecedented time."
So impassioned at all times was Sheil's mode of delivery
that souse muttered, " It is all acting," and others asked,
half in wonder ,and half in incredulity, "How can so
much fervour be genuine, and yet under such entire com-
mand ?" Mr. M'Cullagh himself in remarking upon his
friend's style of oratory, observes :--
" His loud and vehement utterances received their fitting
plaudits. His 'looks and gestures were appreciable by all.
Though we cannot recal them, wo can imagine something of
the ernotien they produced ; but how much of the expressive
by-play is lost ? Who shall whisper for us the ' asides,'
sometimes artistically preconcerted—often the offspring of
sudden impulse—lesser, but not less lustrous, sparkles of that
light that comes not but in the irresistible concurrence of
thought and passion."
Upon the occasion of the dissolution of Parliament, imme-
diately upon the Queen's accession, Mr. Sheil was again
returned, with his colleague, Mr. Otway Cave, by the
liberal electors of Tipperary. Between the meeting of
Parliament in November for the settlement of the Civil
List for the youthful Sovereign, and its adjournment,
after the performance of that duty, till February, 1838,
the first proposition connected with office was made to Mr.
Sheil. After mature consideration he accepted the pro-
ferred post (then by good luck vacant) of the Commis-
siouership of Greenwich Hospital, and having thereby va-
cated his seat was for a fourth time returned by the elec-
tors of Tipperary, this time, moreover without opposition.
He had now therefore the opportunity at length afforded
to him of enjoying together wealth and tranquillity.
"In truth, however, that which he desired most, was
neither wealth, nor tranquillity ; his highest sense of plea-
sure was'in the exercise of that rare faculty by which the
breathless attention' of the House of Commons is enchained.
That,' he used to say, 'that is power. Cheers are nothing;
any one who is reckless enough to play for them, if he has
common tact and ability, can win them. I don't care for
cheers ; the thing that is hard to catch, and when caught, to
bold, is the silent attention of the house. When you have
s done that you have succeeded.; not till then.'"
Well did he know how—
" The applause of listening Senates to command,"
and long did he exercise the enviable power accruing to
him from that high knowledge. A signal defeat of Mi-
nisters on the Jamaica Government Bill led to the resig-
nation of Lord Melbourne's Cabinet on the 7th May, 1839,
