RUSSELL, 1ST See also:BARON (18'29-1884) , See also:British diplomatist and See also:ambassador, was See also:born in See also:Florence on the loth of See also:February 1829. He was the son of See also:Major-See also:General See also:Lord See also:George William Russell, by See also:Elizabeth See also:Ann, niece of the See also:marquess of See also:Hastings, who was See also:governor-general of See also:India during the final struggle with the See also:Mahrattas. His See also:education, like that of his two brothers—Hastings, who became eventually 9th See also:duke of See also:Bedford, and See also:Arthur, who sat for a See also:generation in the See also:House of See also:Commons as member for Tavistock—was carried on entirely at See also:home, under the general direction of his See also:mother, whose beauty was celebrated by See also:Byron in Beppo. See also:Lady William Russell was as strong-willed as she was beautiful, and certainly deserved to be described as she was by Disraeli, who said in conversation, " I think she is the most fortunate woman in See also:England, for she has the three nicest sons." If it had not been for her strong will it is as likely as not that all the three would have gone through the usual See also:- MILL

office, whence he passed to See also:Paris. He remained there, however, only about two months, when he was transferred to Vienna. In 1853 he became second paid attache at Paris, and in See also:August 1854 he was transferred as first paid attache to See also:Constantinople, where he served under Lord See also:Stratford de Redcliffe. He had See also:charge of the See also:embassy during his See also:chief's two visits to the See also:Crimea in 1855, but See also:left the See also:East to See also:work under Lord See also:Napier at See also:Washington in 1857. In the following See also:year he became secretary of See also:legation at Florence, but was detached from that See also:place to reside in See also:Rome, where he remained for twelve years, till August 187o. During all that See also:period he was the real though unofficial representative of England at the Vatican, and his consummate tact enabled him to do all, and more than all, that an See also:ordinary See also:man could have done in a stronger position. A reference, however, to his See also:evidence before a See also:committee of the House of Commons in 1871 will make it clear to any unprejudiced reader that those were right who, during the See also:early 'fifties, urged so strongly the importance of having a duly accredited See also:agent at the papal See also:court. The See also:line taken by him during the Vatican See also:council has been criticized, but no See also:fault can justly be found with it. Abreast as he was of the best thought of his time—the See also:brother of Arthur Russell, who, more perhaps than any other man, was its most ideal representative in See also:London society—he sympathized strongly with the views of those who
