For Lord Derby is enormously rich-one
of the very wealthiest subjects in Europe
and his income is steadily increasing.
1t is calculated that in few years he
will be in receipt of some two-thirds of a
million per annum.
There we have the first and chiefest ex.
planation of Lord Derby's success, or
rather of the profound veneration with
which the majority of Englishmen re-
gard him. For successful he has scarcely
been, but of that presently. The second
fact to be taken into account is, that this
man of 100000 year is the head of the
Stanleys, name which has shone again
and again with singular brightness in
English history, and has been inscribed
by immortal writers in the pages of En-
glish literature. The Earldom of Derby,
the oldest on the roll excepting that Of
Shrewsbury, dates from 1885, when Hen
ry VII conferred it ON Thomas, Lord
Stanley, as the need of his treason to
Richard III. For even a Stanley may
fall short of absolute perfection.

ing committed the offense on the 7th day
of October, 1879, instead of 1878. Judge
Longworth held that the case would have
to be dismissed without prejudice, for the
defendant would have to be tried on the in.
