to Conservatism as 1t vas understood thirty years
ago. SO far therefore, the elections OF lS6
will not take rank with those great elections
which changed the principles on which this
kin Rdom was to be governed. But It will be as
important as that oil 1874, when hnal appeal
TO the nation was made ov great party whose
existence was staked on the result, and whose
dissolution was the virtual consequence. Had
the Tories cone ino power In 1884, they would
not after all, have materially modified the
Wing system of admiuistration, just as, II they
remain in nov, they cannot materially modify
the Liberal system. The verdict oil the country
on the former occasion was that they would
have none of that party. The time hal not
arrived when its distinctive principles could be
useful. The fact that the Tory party no v is In
office, and was then out of Office, makes no real
difference. They are the minority appealing to
the nation to reverse its last verdict recorded in
favor of their opponents. Should their apoeal
be successful 1t will however, as in the case OF
1S4l, be merely ten porary accident, and not
iudicative of any permanent or long-matured
revolution of opinion.

text is also given; and notes are added, pointing
out such as have been noticed by the Supreme
Court No further liberty has been taken with
the original text published by authority Of the
legislature in 1875. The book is well printed, on
coed paper, and with good and apparently new
type; and it is singularly free from typographical
errors; while the value Of the work is greatly
enhanced by the addition Of avery copious index,
which the editor does not too strongly character.
