Disraeli, Benjamin ENGLAND AND FRANCE; OR, A CURE FOR THE MINISTERIAL GALLOMANIA. "Against that morbid desire of conquest and aggrandisement, Speech of the DUKE OF WELLINGTON in the House of Lords, March 17th, 1832. LONDON: JOHN MURRAY, ALBEMARLE STREET. 1832. * ·265.253 9(42:44)" 18" Dis jo F96-80-1003 LONDON: Printed by A. & R. Spottiswoode, ΤΟ THE RIGHT HONOURABLE EARL GREY, K. G. &c. &c. &c. MY LORD! I TRUST that this modest little volume may appear at a moment favourable to your Lordship's perusal. The spring of the political appears almost as forward, and budding, world as that of the natural. All is flourishing, and fresh, and fair; full of promise, and pregnant with felicity. Your Bill, which you described the other night as "so interesting in its nature,” — a phrase apparently borrowed from the puff of the last new novel, is at length in sight of port. |
