_Since the time of Lord Burleigh no one, except the second Pitt, ever enjoyed so long a tenure of power; with the same exception, no one ever held office at so critical a time.... Lord Liverpool is the very last minister who has been able fully to carry out his own political views; who has been so strong that in matters of general policy the Opposition could extort no concessions from him which were not sanctioned by his own deliberate judgment. The present work is founded almost entirely on the correspondence left behind him by Lord Liverpool, and now in the possession of Colonel and Lady Catherine Harcourt._ "_Full of information and instruction._"--_Fortnightly Review_. Maclear ------- _See Section_, "_Ecclesiastical History_." Macmillan (Rev. Hugh) --------------------- HOLIDAYS ON HIGH LANDS; or, Rambles and Incidents in search of Alpine |
