Here in later years he spent the greater part of his time. The climate being mild and salubrious suited his constitution, enfeebled by the weight of advancing years. He greatly admired the French people, and during the revolution of 1848 sublies to the provisional government to furnish him with instructions for becoming a French citizen, The reply being that he could only become one upon resigning his English peerage be abandoned the idea, While in England his London residence was No. 4 Grafton street, his estate beiug Brougham Hall, Penrith, Westmoreland. For many years past e has only Cipro appeared before the public, most the last time being on the occasion of his in- stallation as Chancellor of the University of Edin- burg, in 1860, During our recent rebellion he was an interested and ‘attentive observer of the conflict. His lifelong enmity to negro slavery naturally led him to ninth year. The deceased was descended from an ancient and highly respectable Westmoreland family, and was through his mother the grand nephew of the well known historian William Robertson, At an early age he was sent to the High School and Univer- sity of Edinburg, where he pursued his studies with distinguished success, Unlike the majority of youths, he was an attentive and laborious student of the heavier and more profound branches of education, and was noted for his attention to mathematics and physical science. Before he had attained his eighteenth year, and something like twelve months after his matriculation in the Uni- versity, he wrote and forwarded a paper on the ‘ree fraction and reflection of light” to the Royal Society, which, after perusal and consideration by that body, was assigned a place in its “Transactions,” although the name and youth of the author were unknown, ‘The next year he wrote a second paper on the same subject, and in 1798 a third paper, entitled “General Theorems, Chiefly Porism in the Higher Geometry,” both of which appeared in the “Transactions” of the Royal Society. After leaving the Untver- sity Mr. Brougham travelled on the Con- tinent, chiefly in Prussia and Holland, and on his return to his native city was admitted to the bar in 1800, About this time also he became a forenoon, but were rescued.

It is stated that about five years al the periodical was started he became pressed for money, and wrote to the publishers for an advance. In applying for the required amount (five thousand dollars) he wrote that he felt no hesitation in making the application, “as he could soon clear it off in Wy ue Sor ihe Rdinburg Review.” The money was fd van led and, wae to romise, yas speedily repaid. So indefatigably did he labor that, with the exception of two articles, the entire contents of Volume XVII. were the productions of his pen, and one of the subjects dealt with was “lithotomy.”” We must not omit to mention that in 1803 ie published “Enquiry into the Colonial Policy of the European Powers,” which attracted much attention and won him quite a prominent position in the literary and historical world. In 1807 Mr. Brougham had already attained an en- viable reputation as an advocate. During the same year he went to London to plead the case of Lady Essex Ker, in aclaim to the dukedom of Roxburg, before the House of Lords. This case placed him 80 rominently before the people of England that he became weil known in the metropolis, and discover- ing that his prospects were likely to advance there he removed Lasiirooeapts from Edinburg, and in 1808 was called to the bar at Lincoln's Inn, and thencefor- derers was accompanied by my scorn for the folly of those who encouraged them by their applause. Accept the assur- ances of my sincere friendahip. H. BROUGHAM. A few weeks before his death Lord Brougham’s memory became weak and frequently failed him. He had attained the great age of eighty-nine years, and it was but natural that his end should approach, But few men who lived as long as he did have re- tained their faculties so long and so well. Naturally of astrong constitution, he fought death for years, and appears to have yielded only when the last power of resistance was gone. In personal appearance Lord Brougham was very singular and ungracious. He was a tall, thin man, with a pale, inexpressive face. But the most re- markable of his features was his nose, which has been happily described as ‘a miarvel—pro- tuberant, aggressive, fngutring and defiant; un- lovey but intellectual.” This feature was most un- merc! fully caricatured by Punch, and on one occa- sion he was so exasperated at the cartoon that he introduced the subject into the House of Lords as a breach of privilege. Lord Brougham married the eldest daughter of Thomas Eden of Wimbledon in 1819. The issue of this marriage was one daugiter, who died before she had attained her seventeenth year. Lady Brougham died many years ago. It is dimcult, in a brief newspaper article, to re- count all the history of the deceased Lord. No man of his was ever @ prominent actor in s0 many ment known as article fourteen; general report of the Reconstruction Committee; restoration of Ten- nessee on the bases of the amendment known as article fourteen; negro suifrage legislation for the District of Columbia and passage of the bill over the President’s veto; the several mili- tary reconstryction acts and their passage each over the veto,” incfuding” @Mlversal negro guffrage in the ten States concerned; the bankrupt, tariff and financial measures passed; the Tenure of Office act and its passage over the veto; the first Impeachinent proceedings initiated by Mr. Ashley, of Ohio, and the report of the committee, and @ great variety of personal matters, and, in addition, a humber of interesting biographical sketches. As a book of reference in relation to ail these and other proceedings of the Thirty-ninth Congress this history is convenient and valuable, especially to those directly concerned in the profession of politics de- sirous of having the means at hand of immediate proof in reference to any of the leading measures, arguments and characters making up the records of the Thirty-ninth Congress, A similar book in regard to the Fortieth Congress will be needed, however, to make this history of the Thirty-ninth compiete, and the work of preparing it is doubtless in the hands of COURT OF COMMON PLEAS—SPEGIAL TERM.

Lord Brougham was too aggressive a genius for an office that re- quires much poiitical craft and management. He ever ignored policy, and always openly expressed his sentiments whether they pleased his party collegues or offended them, His reputation as a statesman must rest more upon the great measures of reform and for the amelioration of the people that he introduced or aided to carry through, than upon ~~ act in the ex- ercise of government performed by him.

The difficultiés in the vocal execution of this vocal waltz require such an artist to give it proper effect, tune.
