LORD HARTINGTON'S ELEVATION.  With the death of the Duke of Devonshire last night the career of Lord Hartingtou as a member of the House of Commons closes. Many will regret this. The Radicals, as decently as they can do it at the present moment, are jubilant and rejoicing. To them the significance of the change is that it may possibly weaken the Unionist Party in the Lower House. They may even reap greater advantages. It is just possible, they say, that with the immense increase of responsibility now falling upon Lord Harting ton, his partial retirement from active political effort is not improbable. With this we cannot agree. Lord Hart ington has for too long a period been prominent in political life to contemplate retirement now, when in the very prime of his capacity and power for good. We may scout these hints as the inventions of men who write of what they could desire, not of what they think probable. But we cannot deny that the translation of Lord Hartington to the House of Peers to some extent limits the sphere of  his usefulness.
