is gotm as Mr. Cardwell is gone, in great measure because
he is a Peelite, and a Peelite is merely nominis umbra. It
only shows what vitality there was in the policy of that
great man, that' for so long a pert- d after his death mere re-
verence to his name-could in some measure form a bond of
union amongst a knot of able and active politicians. The
lofty views of Sir Robert Peel will remain for ever on record
in our Parliamentary :annals, and the beneficial effects Of his
commercial policy will long continue to be felt by the British
people,vho owe to him so deep a elebt of gratitude, but
Peelites can exist no .more as a political party. In one sense
we are all Peelitese . We say" all," because his most invete-
rate opponents are at this time paying the highest tribute to
the value of his greet po itical achievements. We all reve-
rence. the memory of. the departed Statesman, but a political
patty cannot be heldlOgether upon sympathies and regrets.
,The rejection of Mr. Pusey for Beikshire was, perhaps, of
all, the most singularly ill-timed. If this gentleman yielded

their clever servant, and have taken e dull,one in his place,
who will be a mere fitting colleague to Messrs. Ilanbury
and
Booker. The rejection of Mr. Grantley Berkeley for West
Gloucestershire is more intelligible. The constituency was
probably sick of a private squabble between two brothers,
about which no living man, bus the Eteoclei and Polynices
of the affair, cared a single frraw. His last desperate rush
for a return by his agricultural protection motion of:1850
could not save him, or replace so ricketty a candidate upon
his legs. Had the intelligence of his resignation reached us
yesterday, we should have been inclined- to class his name
with-that of some other gentlemen of whom the House of
Commons is fairly rid. •
