LONDoN, October 25.-The 7fDpes,
In its obituary on Lord Derby, says:
No one can be. a statesman without
statesmanllke temperament. With
this the Earl OF Derby was never en-.
doWed He was too impulsive to
resist the temptation of making allies
of enemies, both In and outTef season.
His sneer at the italian struggle will
ever be remembered as piece of his
recklessness in speaking Of foreign
affairs. 80 4AL-s1k
The Duke of Wellington beqeeath-
ed to him his influence in the H04se
of Lords, but the bequest could not
be executed. Tho mantle of the
Dukes soldier-like virtues had not
descended on his successor, great as
was his ascendency among the con-
servative peers he never gained the
confidence of his countrymen. The
Telegraph points to the fact that Lord
Derby employed his latest breath in
public to declaim, with all the sos
lemnity of an old man falling from the
world, ag4inst2R measure of justice
and necessity like the Irish Church
Bill, and adds that this shows
how much the age and the coun-
try had gone beyond him. zrsvs
The Standard predicts that while
the present generation lives lord
Derby will be remembered through
out his own province, not only
as an orator, scholar and statesman
of whom Lancashire may well be
proud, but as a magnate who ID the
direst trial, took his place as leader
In the work of relief and charity, as
the rich man who cared for the sor-
rows OF the poor, and as the great
man who respected the pride of the
lowly, not as the Premier Of England,
but as a kindly neighbor, generous
friend and Christian gentleman.
The Nel0s speaks of him as follows: /:
Lord Derby was not a great states
man, but he was a political per-
sonality. He will hold place In the
history of England, not for what he
did, still less for what he failed to do,
but for what he was. He was the
last of the barons-the latest, not the
least. He was perfect example Of
! the properly aristoeratic politician,
with the faults and virtues, the dig
nifty and fidelity of his orders. When
he seemed to desert principle, he did
so under the influence of strongly felt,
/ if erroneously interpreted, obliga
tions to his sovereign nd his political
comrades. The Marqu' ) Of Salisbury

Chancellor of the Uniye. sity of OK
