The Great Commoner
By REV. T. B. GREGORY.

TT was one hundred and Hfty-hve
years ago, April II. 1857, that
King George OF England, egged on by
those whose vanity and selhshness
exceeded their love OF country. dis
missed from office William Pitt, first
Earl OF Chatham, and known to i'm
mortality as the Great Commoner."
The 18th OF April might have gone
down into history as one OF the most
disastrous dates In the whole story Of
the English race, but. as things turned
out the threatening evil wes happily
averted and Pitt was soon back
again, filling with more than his old
time power the place from which he
had been elected
DR. Johnson declared one day,
''Walpole was minister given by the
king to the people, but Pitt was
minister given by the people to the
king" IT was even so, and when the
grouty old king pushed Pitt aside the
people demanded his reinstatement.

people do or do not desire the return

had such instances in our own coun-

the fact that the people Of England
were calling for Pitt. They called
with such force and uDaEimity that
the king trembled on his throne. and
Wnllo he was btlll ITsflDuHE Gltt was
again In the saddle.
II Is impossible here not to recall
the words OF Macaulay: THE situa-
tion which Pitt occupied at the close
of the reign OF George the Second
was the most enviable ever occupied
by any public man In English history
He had conciliated the king; he doml-
neered over the house OF commons;
he was admired by all Europe; he
was adored by the people. He was
the frst Englishman of his time and
he had made England the frst coun-
try In the world, The great com
moner might look down with scorn
on coronets and garters."
Pitts return 10 power was coin
cident with one OF the most thrilling
~ serious periods OF modern history
the period OF the great duel be-
tween France and England for SUI
premacy on the North American
continent.
