BLACKIE & SON, LIMITED, LONDON, GLA.SGOW, EDINBURGH, A.ND DUBLIN. PREFACE. In the present work it has been the intention of the writer to recount earnestiy, truthfully, and without political bias, the wQnderful story of the last sixty years; to present a graphic view of a period which, perhaps, beyond any other in the history of the country, has been marked by great events, intense inquiry, and striking incidents; to comprise in the narrative such characteristic sketches of those who have been conspicuous in the arena of public life, as will vividly indicate those personal associations which are inseparable from great social or political advancea Though Mr. Gladstone's name forms the main title of the book, re.ders need hardly be reminded that the story of our time is too full and varied to be bounded by even the most illnstrious life, or to be told in a single biography. The design, accordingly, has been to depict with some colour and effect all the chief men who have aided in the making of history during six deeade.,-history, that is to say, not only in a political or legislative meaning, but in the wider sense, which includes the striking events, f)ccurrences, errors, achievements, struggles, failures, and successes that have been the stories of our national lives from year to year. It was not contemplated to make th~ book adhere slavishly to strict chrono logical sequence. A reference calenuar is not history, nor can the great drama of a country be even so much as indicated in a narrative br~ken by undue sub· semenee to the succession of dates. The major and minor events, the serious, romantic, and humorous episodes, overlap and bear constant reference to each other, independently of the particular time at which they occur. In other words, the narrative of .. Sixty Years of Social and Political Progress," consists of a number of concurrent stories in which the plots sometimes intermingle j the situations have certain points of contact, the cllaracters meet and separate, without special regard to date., except when here and there a turning·point or a crisis may arrest attention. It will be found, however, that due regard has b.e~\shown for chronological order, and that dates have been recorded in such a manner, that w~ile the reader will not be hareesed by a continual sense of broken sequence., the student will not be at a disadvantage for want of sufficient information. . iv PREFACE. It is sincerely hoped that to young mep. and women seeking to learn what has heen the history of the last sixty years, the book will be found none the less noefol because some endeavour has been made to give life and colour to the scenes and people described. It is believed that the record i. accurate, that, . the characters of the personages have not been misrepre.ented, that the reflections and observations are the results of impartial and often indeed of anxious thought. If there is one lesson more than another to be learnt from the.e pages it, is, that an intelligent understanding of the events, the legislative achievements" and the moral, intellectual, and commercial developments which together arei the measure of the social and political progress of the country,-is no longe", confined to the higher or to any class of the community. Men and women orl every station, though they may neither desire nor attain the reputation or!' n politicians," are taking a deep and earnest interest in the course _of public,; etents, in the method and meaning of the proceedings in parliament, and the':, principle. on which the government of the country is conducted. That this' interest is increasing with the spread of education is one of the mo.t hopefu~, signs of our time, and anyone who may he ahle to help in soberly and righteouslyl, ilssisting it has reason to rejoice. In this new edition the narrative has heen continued up to, and includes the early parliamentary session of the present year, 1890. THOMAS ARCHER. LoNDON, .runt, 1890. CONTENTS OF VOL. IV. .. ..

The reception accorded by the press and the public to this new edition of the lMPERIAL DICTIONARY has been such as to show that the care and labour bestowed upon It hU'e met with due recognition, and to prove that it will continue fully to maintain its established position as a standard lexicon of the English language, and as a work of the highest utility for the purposes of general reference and everyday requirement. The four volumes of the new °edition comprise a total of 3000 pages, each consisting of three columns closely printed in a clear and distinct manner. The nUMber of words now contained in the work is estimated at not less than 130,000. Of modern terms belonging to science, technology, and the arts, a very complete collection will be found in this work. The number of such words introduced in recent times, and L.OW continually ·to be met with in periodical and general literature,. is so great that a dictionary explaining such terms is indispensable. As an Encyclopedic Dictionary the IMPERIAL combines the advantages of an ordinary dictionary with those of an encyclopedia. And as there are many objects and terms of 1Vbich no adequate description or definition can be given by mere words, this dictionary does not rely upon verbal description alone, the definitions being supplemented by upwards of 3000 accurate and beautiful wood engravings.
