Of this distinguished and somewhat eccentric
indiyidual-who of late years has been less before
the public eye than at preceding periods the Lon
don Spectator of June 18th thus speaks:
Never the indiscrimnalc culogists, we
have sometimes been the sharp censors of
Lord Brougham; but truth and Justice
compel praise from lips unused TO tlatter.
Brougham is the only man of his own
| high class of intellect in public life. lie
has, in his time, done service TO the cause
of rational government, which no one but
himself could have done, as he has at
times perillcd high reputation with a
wantonness in which no less robust a ge-
MUS could have INDUCED without utter
and irreyocable destruction. He stands
now in the maturity of his power-ripen-
ed, mcllowed by experience and time,
with all his energies unimparcd. He
stands forth omancipatcd from party tram
mcls. BY reliance on his own genius and
pcrscvcring industry, he has taught an as
sembly which cannot be expected 10 SYM

and fear. lie is regarded with a kindly
feeling, even by the most excited portion
of the democracy. He can plead the great
cause which is now depending with more
knowledge, greater variety of argument
and illustration, and more impressive pow
err, than any other living orator; he can
plead it more acceptably TO the house of
lords than any other man he can count
upon a more willing attention from the
Charllsts than will be gwen to any other.
By becoming the exponent of principles,
needless as to whether men applaud and
follow him or not, he can make himself
the champion OF the rights of industry,
TIE central point i'll which discordant wills
may meet in harmony. He can do for
free trade all and moro than he formerly
did against the orders in council, thereby
rendering a service to his country rs much
transccnding his former services as the
maturcd powers Of Lord Brougham exceed
the hayward energies OF young Henry
BrOugham. At times "spots have come
over his mortal STAR" but an opportunity
is now afforded him to enace their recol-
lection forever, and to cast light on
what may be the closing scene of his life,
stronger and scadicr than has shone on
any portion Of his previous career.

Like broad arch rose over his brain,
Where life busy stream had check d It's swift flow,
