Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Public and Private Life of Lord Chancellor Eldon, Vol. 2: With Selections From His Correspondence Lord Eldon, on being re-appointed Chancellor, thought his tenure of the Greal Seal exceedingly precarious; yet he held it continuously for more than twenty years - taking a prominent part in an Administration which, in the midst of unexampled difficulties, skillfully conducted our foreign affairs, and, by the aid of the most consummate General who ever led an English army to victory, overthrew the power of Napoleon, and restored peace to the world. The first measure of the new Administration was an immediate dissolution of the Parliament, which had only sat a few months. This Lord Eldon strongly recommended, notwithstanding his violent animadversions on the late Ministers for dissolving a Parliament which had sat above four years. The speech delivered by him, closing the session in the King´s name, announced the object of this proceeding to be, "to afford to his people the best opportunity of testifying their determination to support him in every exercise of the prerogatives of his crown, which is conformable to the sacred obligations under which they are held, and conducive to the welfare of his kingdom and to the security of the Constitution."
