lam seems tardy. lukewarm. and inconsistent.
He has given us. nevertheless, q satisfactory

less satisfactory because thore can DO no

while Mr.. Saintsbury regrets that Toryism

Mics that only with tho weapons OF the pres
ont Conservative Dom ocratic party can tho
radicaism OF our day DO opposed with any
hopc Of success. That those weapons were
fashlonedb by Mr.. Disraeli and Lord Derby is
beyond dispute. md II Is probable thnt but for
tho social and political influence commanded
by the latter. Mr.. Dlsraeli would never have
obtained a favorable field for tho exhibit
ton OF his talents. and tho Conservative
party, as We now see IL. would mover

striking in Lord Derbys subsequent career.
and 10 the nature Of tho influence which he
ezerted over Conservatives. is to bU found in
tho fact that ho entered Parliame nt as u Wing.
that he held the offices OF Chief Secretary for

supported such dis.inctively Whig measures as
the first Reform bill and the bill for tho aboli-
ton OF slavery in the West Indies.
