Book Description
Excerpt from The Right Hon. Benjamin Disraeli, Earl of Beaconsfield, K. G., And His Times, Vol. 2 Mr. Disraeli was in favour of the bill. He supported the principle of com pensation, and differed wholly from the view taken upon the subject by Mr. Bright Now I hope it will be under stood, he said (february 15, that I uphold the principle of compensation, not merely as a matter of justice to those whose property is destroyed by order of the local authority, but also as a matter of public prudence, and for the general advantage of the country. I confess that, unless I believed it to be necessary for the general advantage, I should not support the principle of compensation. I admit that those who suffer under visitations like that we are endeavouring to mitigate, ought to receive some assistance extra from that which they may acquire by their own exertions. But I must also admit that public subscriptions are the natural resource to appeal to under ordinary circumstances; and if all we had to consider were the losses of the farmers, it would be, I think, a legitimate question to discuss whether their losses should not be supplied by their own exertions, and by private sympathy and charity. But a great principle is here involved. I believe that by admitting the principle of compensation you are indirectly preventing the spread of the calamity which we are now endeavouring to eradi cate. It is on that ground I support the provisions of this bill. This view was undoubtedly based on just grounds. The farmer or squire' was not to be compensated because he had lost his cattle from disease, but because he had lost his cattle by comply ing with the orders of the government, which directed that property should be destroyed for the public good. Under such circum stances it was only fair that compensation should be tendered for the loss of valuable animals, which might perhaps have been saved had their owners been permitted to have recourse to the remedies that were then so freely being suggested.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Right Hon. Benjamin Disraeli, Earl of Beaconsfield, K. G., And His Times =, Vol. 1 In any other profession save that of politics, the success attained by the late Lord Beaconsfield would not have been so singularly remarkable. Men from the most humble surroundings have risen to the serene heights of the bench, have worn the lawn sleeves of the episcopate, have wielded the baton of the field-marshal, have been created peers for famous achieve ments. The great prizes of the bar, the church, the queen's services are open to all; and though certain social advantages have, in the different professions, their full value, yet such advantages at the best but give the candidate a good start, and by no means promise him a success positive and assured. Talent, industry, and sound knowledge seldom fail to meet with their deserts in a professional career, whilst factitious combinations only occa sionally prosper. With parliamentary life it is very different. To become the head of a great party, to command an obedient and united following, to dominate over the j eal ousies and spontaneous antipathies of the House of Commons, to be supreme in the council chamber, and to enjoy the confidence both of your sovereign and your country.
