Gladstone — were not in general harmony. On the contrary, Lord Palmerston disliked and habit- ually thwarted Mr. Gladstone ; and Mr. Gladstone instinctively distrusted Lord Palmerston. A year before, the two had been * in violent antagonism' on financial questions. 'For two months,' Lord Granville, himself a member of the Cabinet, had written, ' Glad- stone had been on half-cock of resignation. . . . Palmer- ston has tried him hard once or twice by speeches and Cabinet minutes, and says that th...e only way to jdeal with him is to bully him a little ; and Palmerston', GranviUe then went on to say, ' appears to be in the right.' A species of Cabinet modus vivendi was then arrived at, and had since been more or less observed ; but the two men were by nature antagonistic. Built on wholly different models, they- instinctively disliked each other. Politically, Gladstone, then a man of fifty-four and in the full maturity of his great powers, was plainly the coming man ; but Palmerston, so to speak, though a veteran close on fourscore, held the fort ; nor did he propose to vacate it in Gladstone's favour.
