This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

(An apology is perhaps necessary for even so slight a sket...)
An apology is perhaps necessary for even so slight a sketch as this of the career of a civil servant Such careers for obvious reasons do not lend themselves to biography; and Sir Louis Mallet never courted publicity himself, nor did he sympathise with the cant which sometimes attributes to an eminent official a power and responsibility quite foreign to his functions and position. But it may happen that either the possession of certain personal gifts or the accident of association with a particular school of political thought entitles even a civil servant to some posthumous notice, and I hope I am not blinded by natural partiality in assuming that these considerations apply to the present case. The pages of this volume must answer the question, and I need not further enlarge on the qualities of my fathers mind and character which marked him in the opinion of his friends as an esprit c Cilite or on his well-won reputation for commercial statesmanship of the Cobdenic (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)

Excerpt: ... NAVAL ADMINISTRATION 199 were withheld, Lord Northbrook representing on at least one occasion to colleagues who were at variance on questions of Irish policy and finance and other matters that they were "bound to see the Russian business through." His appeal was all the more effective because, as he truthfully observed, he "had himself made some sacrifices on that account." How necessary such advice was, the following graphic entry in the diary reminds us: "Hartington wrote me a note, 'We are in for. war after Mr. Gladstone's speech.' When I read it I thought it gave us the best chance of peace. Which will be right?" The vote of credit which was the occasion of Mr. Gladstone's great speech thus referred to was also the cause of the latest of the attacks on Lord Northbrook's naval administration which had helped to discredit the Liberal Government during its later months. "What with the Navy and Egypt," Lord Northbrook had written before Christmas 1884, "I shall soon be the best abused man in England;" and a little later occurs the only other personal allusion I have noticed to the agitation: "Beaumont thinks the Pall Mall attacks are doing me a great deal of harm." However little Lord Northbrook noticed or cared about the personal aspect of the matter this was undoubtedly their effect, and it is therefore necessary to inquire what amount of justification there was in his conduct as First Lord of the Admiralty for the censure which public opinion at that time passed upon him. In one particular form, indeed, the impression made by the controversy still lingers, if only in the minds of political students. It is commonly believed, to quote the assertion as it was made by a prominent political opponent soon after the fall of the Government, that whereas in Dec...

Earl of Northbrook. It has been undertaken at the request of the present Lord Northbrook and his sister Lady Emma Crichton. Much as I was honoured by this expression of their confidence I should not, with the limited amount of leisure at my disposal, have felt justified in acceding to it if I had not been assured not only of the utmost indulgence in the matter of time but also of their own active co-operation. This I have received in the fullest measure ;not only has Lord Northbrook placed at my disposal his fathers admirably arranged political correspondence and speeches his public and private papers and a series of useful newspaper extracts and appreciations, but both he and Lady Emma Crichton have been unwearied in supplying me with suggestions criticisms notes and recollections. Their cousin Sir Edward Grey, whose advice greatly influenced my decision to accept the task, has allowed me to consult him upon several points and to discuss with him the various aspects of the character I had to portray ;and there is no one among Lord Northbrook syounger contemporaries who can speak on that subject with more insight and appreciation.
