In 1868 he became First Lord of the Treasury, which position he held also for a few months. In 1874, Disraeli became Prime Minister at the head of the Conservative Government, for the first time. Disraeli's face was inscrutable. At critical moments hun- dreds of keen eyes were turned towards that face to read, if possible, something of his thoughts, but never once, not even in the most exciting crisis of personal or political con- flict, did the face unwittingly relax, so that friend or foe cou...ld read aught there. His face was truly remarkable, sphinx-like, and unfathomable. His courage in the parlia- mentary contests in which he was engaged was of the high- est order. He was a most excellent leader. He had perfect command of his temper, and he knew how to encourage his followers and to arouse them to enthusiasm. As an orator Mr. Disraeli was, in some respects, superior to any of his contemporaries. His self-possession, which nothing could disturb ; his terse, epigrammatic replies, when interrupted by questions ; his keen, mercilessly sarcastic attacks upon his assailants when provoked ; his wonderful command of language, and fluency of speech rendered him one of the most effective parliamentary orators of any age or nation.
