Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of the Rt. Hon. Spencer Perceval, Vol. 1 of 2: Including His Correspondence With Numerous Distinguished Persons The great men of that time have, nearly with out exception, had their biographies written. Pitt has found an able biographer in Lord Stanhope; Fox, a warm admirer in Lord Russell; Addington in Pellew; Lord Eldon in Twiss; Lord Wellesley in Pearce: Lord Liverpool in Yonge; Canning in Stapleton; Castlereagh in Sir A. Alison. The Duke of Buckingham's Courts and Cabinets furnishes us with a memoir of Lord Grenville. Wilberforce, Romilly, Abbot, live in their diaries. Of the great party-leaders Of the day, two alone - Perceval and the Duke of Portland - have never had their lives written. The action of the Duke's son, in destroying his father's papers, has probably made it impossible to supply the defect in the one case. This memoir is an attempt to supply it in the other.

The Session of 1811 was, beyond question, the most eventful period of Perceval's career. When it had opened he was generally regarded as a falling Minister, with a formidable majority to contend with in the House, and a Regent to whom he was personally and politically offensive. Before the Session was six weeks old he was more powerful in the House of Commons than any Minister since the days of Pitt; he had made himself a necessity to the Prince, who had hitherto regarded him as his bitterest enemy. The crisis had brought out powers of which only his most intimate associates had previously been aware. It had made him a party leader of the very first rank; it had gained him a reputation as the foremost Parliamentary Debater of the age. Only a few months before Perceval had been regarded as a weak Minister. He was supposed to owe his place to the favour of his King; he was supposed to retain it by compromise and concession. No one imagined that, when the prop on which he had leaned was withdrawn, it would be possible for him to maintain his position. His rule was identified with the reign of George...

Difficulties of his Position?Painful Situation of Lord Gren- ville. Parliament was prorogued on the 21st June. The Session had been more prosperous than the most hopeful of Perceval's friends had anticipated. The Ministry had survived every danger; it had been subjected to only occasional defeat. The resolution of its chief Advocate in the House of Commons, and the dissensions of the Opposition had combined to preserve it from Parliamentary peril. But, at the same time, the experience of the Session had decisively demonstrated the critical condition of the Government. Its existence depended on the support of persons who might at anymoment be driven into opposition. The small knot of men, who had allied themselves with Lord Sid- mouth, and the still smaller group who had identified themselves with Canning, were able at any moment to convert the Ministerial majority into a minority. Bathurst's defection, in the beginning of the Session, had' led to the defeat of the Government on the Walcheren Committee; Canning's desertion, towards the close, had contributed to Bankes' successive victories on the Sinecure Resolutions. Under such circumstances it was obviously the policy of the Minister to attempt to permanently attach to himself one of these two parties. Canning had been his colleague; Sidmouth had been his former leader; ther...
