hi, most acceptable mOutbp.ece. Ho~
far he Nill lIe an effective one remain. To-
be seen. Lord Salisbury knows the
diplomaiis;s at Europe, he Is in a singu-
lar degree master Of French. and he can
meet Prince Gnrischakoff Nth sarcastic
sentences better even than his own; but
his recent career shows that his mind
takes no grip upon policy. tina: he
waivers in his conception Of ends as we'll
as means, and that he has. with tie verve
and quickness of the literary tempera-
ment, its great imprcssibility. He has
given way rs Cabinet Minister to Lord
Bcaconsfield, he has yielded as master Of
India to Lord Lytton's melodramatic fol-
lies, and he has not succeeded in making
Anglo Indians believe that his policy is
distinct.
For the present, nevertheless, his Sc
lection is triumph of skill, only sur
passed by that Of Mr.. Stanley, the heir
of Knowsley, as Minister at War. In
itself this is q good appointment. Mr..
Stanley inherits much of the brain force
of his family, he is thoroughly familiar
with the Department, and though some
what dilatory, will probably govern it
with sufficient energy and skill. He will
certainly defend it we'll in the House,
where his speeches, though scarcely no.
ticed by the public, have given him
weight, and where he will bring to the
aid of Sir Stafford Northcote-now so
hard prcssed-a much. wanted faculty,
that of summing, up a debate SO as to
leave the needed impression just before a
division. For is 1t to be reckoned among
his disadvantages that he resembles in
many respects his brother rather than his
father-the Falkland rather than the
Rupert of Debate-that he has some.

mand, and dozens of frc.eaters in Par
Lament, q man of that temper may
prove invaluable in House of Commons
whose leader, with many fine qualities,
lacks the reserved strength of colder
men. 1t was not ouly for these qualities,
however, that Lord Beaconsfield pitched
upon his new Cabinet Minister. TO let
Lord Derby 60, and then break the sword
in his hand; to quarrel with the Earl, yet
retain most of the influence of Knows
ley; to 60 his own way against the Stan
ley, yet he able to show Lancashire that
the Stanleys were still with him-this
must have been triumph as dear to his
heart as it is important to his Ministry,
and this he has accomplished. 1t is a
masterpiece of social political strategy,
and suggests that under the coronct of
Carabas still lives the fire of the old
