Abstract

The appointments consequent on the change of Great Britain's Government have now been completed, and the Tory Ministry may be examined as a whole. Attempts have been made to oppose the reelection of several of its members by their respective constituencies, but these attempts have failed in very case hitherto, partly because the constituencies were previously Tory in their complexion, partly because there is a general and not unnatural feeling that it is unfair to prevent a man from resuming his seat in Great Britain's Parliament just when his ambition has been gratified by the receipt of an appointment. Besides, electors have a sort of pride in being represented by a person honored by the Crown with an office, and fancy that if they want anything done for their locality they have a better chance of getting it put through.
