The family of which Mr. Denison ‘is the head owes tts erigin, like that of #0 many of our leading gentry, to nuc- cessful mercantile enterprise. Its mado a for- tune ip trade—we believe at Leeds—more than a century ‘ago, and more than one of is members have honorably dietioguisbed hemuelves in the law and in other walks fn . The present proprictor of Oxsington was born in the frst year of the century, and succeeded at « very early age to the position he has since occupied. If we are not much mistaken, his first experience as a man of business was derived ‘from the systematic pu almost empirical, to the ‘and developement the resources of the soil, But while thus engaged in works of local usefulness Mr. was not insenrible tothe attractions of political life. After he had, incompany sith the present Lord 3 Labouchere, made a protracted tour through United States of America. Soon after their return each of the three friends entered Parliament, and all of them took an early interest in the struggle of parties, thea for the most concentrated on the great question of Catholic emancipation, On the accession of Mr. Canning to the premiership in 1827, Mr, Stanley and Mr, Denison were both led upon to fil sub. ordinate offices—the former as Under Secretary for the Colonies, the lator as one of the Lords of the Admiralty. By bie marriage with the daughter of the late Duke of Portiand, Mr. Denison had become closely conneeted with the family of Mr. Canning, and it ie probable that bad that ‘statesman lived his oung friend would have speedi- of grenier cial prominence. Whother r.Canning’s premature decease, or to some other cause of which we are unaware, it does not appear the member for Nottinghamsbire formed a part in any of the hberal administrations subseq formed, We have some recollection of a criticism him on the composition of the government of 1846, of which Lord Jobn Russell was the bead, the gist of which, if we re- member aright, lay in pointing out the absence of territo- rial influence as represented in the Cabinet then formed. We apprehend that the aymapthies of the Speaker elect bave always been em lly, though we are far from saying exclusively, identified with the landed interest; and it ls a somewhat curious coincidence that his elevation te the chair of the Lower House rhould come at a moment signalized by the extrusion frem Parliament of the more conspicuous leaders of the Manchester party, boy ey return of a good number of country magnates to the liberal A letter from Hamburg of April 20th notices one of Mr. Buchanan’s fret Consular appointments thus:—Mr Samuel Ricker, the new United States consul-geveral to the Hanse Towns, appointed by Mr. Prosident Buchanan, after pre- senting his credentials in the usual manner, haa received his exequatur from the Senate.
