Loi·d Melbourne a.lwnys loyal n.nd generous, with all bis fa.tal good·natu1-e and readiness to J ield to the presf:'ure of his party, used his best tnden.vo1-a,as we have aeen 1 to smooth the 'ray for those who '\'ere to succeed him in the place he had so lo'n g occupied a~ the confidential adviser of the Crown. Much use 11ad been made, to the preju<lice of the Tory partr, of their cond11ct as to the vote on the 1-'rincc's u.llowancc, and other matters, at the time of his 1nan1a.ge. Si1· Robert Peel felt that he had allowed himself to be carried away, for the n101nent, by the passion of the party, and .that the part he had taken iu apparent bos~i.lity to the '"·ishe.s of the Queen and the interests of the Prince 'might well be temomberl"d to his preju· dice. But however \vell founded such apprc· hensio118 might have been undel' former reigns, the r;pirit whicli now n~igucd in tlie Palace \Vas such a-a quickly to put all such n.pprehensions tu rest. 'l'hia is Yery cleai· from \\'hat ~Ir. l\.Ia..rtin telli:i us (p. 118), and his statement we are in a po~ition to oorroborate on the authority of one to whou1 Sir Robert Peel mo1·e than once 81)oke to the saine effect. 'Peel used tu say, that he had felt no slight emba.rra.sa1nent on first corning into official cou· tact 'vith tll.e Prince, for t11e fri.ct wa.s painfully present to hi1:1 mind, that the serious curtail· lncut of the Prince's income was mainly due t'l t.h~ pro1ninent support \\·hich he ha.d giYen to Colonel Sibtbor_p 1s motion the previous year. He \Vas, therefore, uot a little touched to .:find tha.t uot a sliadc of personal soreness could bo tr:'l.ced in the Pl'incc's demeanor. On the con· trary, hi~ com1nunicatio~B were of tba.t frank and cordial chnrnct~r,\·h1ch at once placetl the ~Iinii;ter n.thiB ea.'le, nnd made him feel a~BnreJ. that not ~uly 'vas no grudge entert~~ned, but that he 1n1ght count thenceforth on being treatcU a.a ;.i frfon<l..'
