Agents for the Grey Review Durham, November 28, 1878 THE REVIEW To Advortig>rs. | _ On examining the measures of these two | political adventurers we will find that the y( parallel holds equally good. In 1847 Mr. .| Disraeli was a candidate for election in j Buckinghamshire and is represented by | Punch as the political Cheap Jack holding Liberal opinions in the one hand and Popular opinions in the otherâ€"an ardent admirer | and protector of everything which wili | bring votes, However a few years Inter when the country showed evidences of a great revival of prosperity in consequence of the abolition of protective duties and the introduction of a free trade policy, Mr. Disraeli and his conservative friends were not so loud in their praises of the advantâ€" ages of protection, and began the policy of trimming, which is so well known and diligently practised by the Tories in Canaâ€" ada as well as in Great Britain. It was on this occasion that Punch invented the Political Chameleon for their benefit with the motto Proâ€"freeâ€"tecâ€"traâ€"tiâ€"dâ€"onâ€"e. In all this there is a singular resemblance beâ€" tween Mr. Disraeli and Sir John A. Macâ€" donall. The latter gentleman, in days gone by proclaimed himself, an out and out free trader, and denounced the Governâ€" ment of Mr. Mackenzie, when a slight l modification was made in the tariff, as attempting to _ introduce the thin edge of the protection wedge. But during | the last year he has veered round. The| depression of trade and the clamouring of | manyfacturers, led him to suppose, that a | policy of protection wauld delude a good | | many votes, and perchance, oust the govâ€" | ! ernment. _ And in this he was not misâ€"|! taken, During his recent elegtion camâ€"|| paign he catried free trade opinions mm his | ) one hand and protective tariffs in the other. | the great agitator in terms which are ,vnrcely fit to be repeated. _ Lord John Russell was told by Disrreli on one ocensiâ€" on, that he was an "infinitely small Searâ€" abmeus." *"When the foreignerlearns," say$ he, "that you are the leader of the House of Commons, he will begin to comprehend how the Egyptians worshipped an insect." A few years later Lord John Russell is spoken of by Disraeli, as a man of "strong ambition, sagacious and bold in council ; as an administrator, he is prompt and inâ€" defatigable." _ On another occasion Disraeli ‘ is lost in admiration of the geat talents and natehless foresight of Sir Robert Peel and describes himself as his humble but fervent supporter. However shortly afterwards, when Sir Robert Peel failed to see the talents of the member for Maidstone, and to gratify his ambition with a seat in the cabinet, this froth was converted into the vilest vituperation, and Disraeli never failâ€" ed to pursue Peel ever afterwards with all the malignity of which his nature was capâ€" able. Thereis an interesting article in the curâ€" rent number of the Dominion Monthly, on the Caricature History of the Earl of Beaâ€" consfield as given from time to time in the pages of the London Charivari. Punch has always shown himself to be possessed of a remarkably correct and keen insight into character, and Disraeli had not been long before the public, until Mr. Punch had fixed his eye upon him, and saw through the gaudy and outside trappings into the secret chamabers of his character. Lord Beaconsfield has been, par excellence the political adventurer of British politics, as Sir John A. Macdonald has been, of the political life of Canada,. Entering public life in the first session of the first parliaâ€" ment of the present reign, and known then only as a talented literateur, he has unâ€" flinchingly pursued the object of his amâ€" bitionâ€"which he said himself, on one o¢â€" | casion to Lord Melbourne, was to obtain the l Premiership of the House of Commonsâ€" and now has the satisfaction of knowing that he has reached the highest position which any man is able to attain under the British Crown, that of Prime Minister of the Empire and Peer of the realm. To wield power, to receive and distribute honors, to be the talk of his coterie, of England, of Europe and of the world, has been his aim and in this he has succeded, And like our Canadian political adventurer he has never been over scrupulous as to the means, but very careful to preserve the essential unity of his end. His career has often been spoken of as demoralizing to the national character, and as lowering the: standard and sims of English politics ; but: whatever differences of opinion may exist in reference to the influence of Disrael‘s career, there can be no question as to the eminently demoralizing effect of Sir John A. Macdonald‘s public life upon the public life of Canada. Passing over the Pacific Seandal, which was the culminating stroke of a long series of irregularities, we need only refer to the fixed habit which he has cultivated in the use of men and measures, of prostituting his position as first minister whenever the occasion required, for the ’ purpose of continuing his lease of office. A quarter of a century ago he branded Sir Francis Hinoks as a man accursed and "steeped to the lips in corruption," yet in 1869 when it suited his purpose, he called Sir Francis Hincks to the Cabinet and gave him the office of Finance Minister. Everyâ€" body knows how Mr. William Macdougall denounced Sir John and his cabinet as being guilty of "imbecility and treason" and what good grounds he had for so doing, vet this same Mr. Macdougall is nowelingâ€" ing to the coat tails of Sir John A. Macâ€" donale, allured no doubt with the promise of good things to come and perhaps a seat in the Cabinet. In all this Sir John‘s tacties bear a strong resemblance to those of Benjamin Disraeli, When seeking the suffrages of the electors of High Wycomie he courted the favour of Daniel O‘Connell, vet a short time afterwards he denounced Although some have tried the "hennery" business on the large seale, yet it appears from the opinions of those engaged in the egg business, that most of the eggs are reâ€" ceived from persons owning from a dozen or two to one or two hundred fowls. At tention should be él!cu‘ to the best breeds, and it nhoultx:t be forgotten that it is not desirable to "keep laying hens long but to market them and bring on the young ones. preserved, and come out sweet and fresh.

The new High School, Fergus, was publicly opened on Friday last. Future historians will be able to assign the true reasons for the extraordinary sucâ€" cess which has attended the career of thess men. ~A writer in the Fortnightly Review attributes the success of Lord Baeconsfield to personal and hereditary influences on one hand, and to the reign of a female soverâ€" eign on the other. In the case of SirJohn A. Macdonald it is chiefly due to the unâ€" scrupulous character of the man in the first place, and secondarily, to the allianee which he succeeded in forming, by the aid of Sir George Cartier, between the Tory and Orange faction of Outario and the Ultraâ€" montane party of Quebec. This heteroâ€" genous combination, although it may exâ€" ist, can never exercise the same controlling influence in the future. And it may perâ€" chance be added, that both these adventurâ€" ers have beon the ersatures of circumstanâ€" ces. They have drifted on the bosem of the tide, and have had preâ€"eminently, the tact necessary to, take ndvantage of the accidents of wind and current, as they ocâ€" curred.

Macdonald. And so also with the various reformas in the repreâ€" sentation and the election of members to the House of Commons. Disraeli, although at one time denouncing such legislation as retrogressive and revolutionary in its charâ€" acter, with his chief Lord Derby when the occasion was propitious, accepted those measures of reform, advocated by Her Majesty‘s opposition and passed them into law, remarking that this was the way in which he educated his party. In like manâ€" ner Sir John A. Macdonald has repeatedly opposed measures of reform brought forâ€" ward by the Liberal party, until further opposition endangered his seat on the Treasury bench, when there was an: imâ€" mediate change in his tacties,and his folâ€" lowers were directed to fall into line and support the obnozious legislation.

The report was to the effeci that on Sunday morning about nine o‘clock her father missed her, and upon inâ€" terrogating the housekeeper, with whom the young girl slept, he was informed that she had disappeared through the night and that the housekeeper knew nothing of her whereabouts. The services of constable Noble were procured on Sunday and armed with the necessary legal instruments he proceeded in search of hor. At that time it was still believed that she had been abâ€" ducted, but upon further inquiry good grounds were discovered for beliéving that the case was not one of abduction but of elopement, which afterwards proved correct. On Monday a warrant was placed in the hands of Constable Hamilton, for the arrest of Miss Irwin for illegally removing her wearing apparel, etc., she being only about sixteen years of age.

The rest of the party were also on deck and in good spirits, and guesses as to what hour the land would be made were indulged in.

The harbour was entered, and the voyage was ended. in eight days and six hours from Moville on the north coast of Ineland.

During the night the gale moderated, and on Tuesday morning was still decreasing until the weather became moderate, and so continued most of the day ; but the sea was heavy. Wednesday promised finely, but the Princess still conâ€" tinued too ill to leave her room. The Marquie, | however, was on deck, as he had been for the previous two days, ate with a good appetite, and seemed to have got over the first effects wf the voyage. The wind at night was moderâ€" ate from the northeast. On Thursday mornâ€" ing the wind had shifted to the southâ€"east, and was quite brisk. The Princess made a brave effort to rise and leave her room, but her great weakness still continued, and she soon retired.

Shortly after six o‘clock the vessel was safely anchored at 8t. George‘s Island in the mouth of the Halifax harbour. The Dukeof Edinburgh, who ail day had been anxiously expecting the arrival of the Sarmatian, as soon as she was signalled left the Black Prince in the Admirality steam barge, and went down to meet her. The sailor Prince speedily boarded the steamer, nnd had a pleasant interview with his sister, who was none the less glad to find so near a memâ€" ber of her family awaiting her arrival in Canada. The Princess was fatigued, and retired early, so that the popular expectaâ€" tion that the Viceâ€"Regal party would land informally in the evening, and spend the nignt on shore, was dissappcinted.
