ing thus carried out the policy which his
predecessor in Office had adopted, and
having assured himself that the Ameri-
cans were under no misapprehensions as
to our wishes or disposition, he forbore
from doing more. No good, it was evil
dent, could come from pressing the mat
ter. If Congress entertained unsound
views Of political economy, it was not
for us to instruct it; if the Americans
wished to visit us with a penalty, we
should not have diverted them from de-
sign by remonstranceS We now see the
result of such a policy on this and other
questions in a better understanding with
the United States than has prevailed since
the commencement of the war.
1t is certainly with good reason that
Her Majesty was reluctant 10 transfer to
new hands at a perlIous crisis the man
agement of relations so successfully CON
Quoted. Lord Clarendon unites in a sim
guIar degree the conditions desirable in a
Foreign Secretary Of the present day.
His experience is great and varied, his
reputation is so widely established that
his name is a sufficient warrant to all
foreign Governments, and though he
doubtless shares in that general llberaIity
of sentiment which prevails in this coun-
try, he never committed himself by Off
cious or offensive interference. Consider
alton and forbearance arc principles as
valuable in foreign policy as in private
intercourse. 1t is quite possible for Min
istries as well as friends to be too candid,
and the non-intervention we have adopt
ed in practice might be judiciously ex-
tended to words. 1t has been Lord Cla-
rendon's merit-We will not say his for
tune-to have avoided giving offence.
Under his management we have created
no enmities, and have improved all our
friendships. Where we could not APP
prove, and did not intend to interfere, we
have obs4~ined Gro~ iv.it~t;~s, whovo
differences existed, we have trusted rather
to the course of events than to expostu-
lation for effacing them. The results of
this policy we now enjoy in that peace
and security which are %unhappily such
exceptional blessings among the States
of Europe. Lord Clarendon's successor
may learn from his example that it is
perfectly possible to maintain not only
the honour but the policy Of England
without mourning odium or provoking
resentment; and if the lesson should pro-
duce its effect, as we trust it may, Lord
Clarendon will quit Office with a bequest
to his co%untrymen the value of which
they will be prompt to appreciate and
