LONDON, MONDAY. APRIL 12, 1852.

According to CICERO, it was BIAS who first pro-
claimed the sagacity of treating every friend as
though he were ultimately to become an enemy. A
more despicable sentiment than this was perhaps
never propounded. Yet, from an experience of up-
wards of a quarter of is century, we may assert without
fear of contradiction that it is precisely the opinion
which appears to have been acted upon throughout
his political career by Lord JoRN RUSSELL. During
the period of his continuance in office the ex-Premier
always contrived to fence his policy round with a
sort of impenetrable chevaux-de-frieze of reservations.
Within their limits the " vulgar herd" of his sup-
porters were never admitted ; and to this circum-
stance, we conceive, is mainly attributable the isolated
position in which the Noble Lord has always
found himself placed in moments of more than cus-
tomary
test the emergency.stab, Whenever a crisis arrived to
ity of ills Administration, it invariably
