civil war, he being then juft of age; and he induced the 
garrifon of Weymouth' to open their gates to him : but 
he was difgufted by the treatment he received y the king 
having firfl made a difficulty of bellowing on him the 
government of Weymouth, and foon after taking it out 
of his hands. lie afterwards formed the party called 
“ the clubmen,” whofe objedt it was to force both Tides 
to lay down their arms, and call a free parliament for 
fettling the affairs of the nation. Sir Anthony was one 
of the mod eonfiderable perfons among thofe who were 
excluded from the houfe of commons, when Cromwell 
undertook to purge- it of fuch members as were dif- 
agreeable to him. He was extremely adtive in bringing 
about the reltoration of Charles II. and foon after that 
event was created baron Alhley, and appointed chancel- ' 
lor and under-treafurer of the exchequer. In 1670 he 
was confidered as-one of the perfons principally trufted 
by the fovereign, being a member of the celebrated 
cabal; and having refigned the office of chancellor of 
the exchequer, lie was created Lord ( Cooper of Pawlet, 
and Earl of Shaftelbury; and April 17, 1672, declared 
lord high chancellor of England. His abilities were of 
the fir It order; he difeharged the duties of his’office in 
a manner the 1110ft upright and admirable; he afted 
with great fpirit, candour, and generofity : yet he has 
been cenfured for his retreat from England, previoufly 
to the tragical cataftrophe of Algernon Sidney and lord 
Ruffel. But being difgufted with the proceedings of 
lord Clifford lord high treafurer, and the duke of.-York;, 
he conneited himfelf with the duke of Monmouth, and 
infpired him with the defign of afpiring to the crown. 
He was committed to the Tower, together with the 
duke of Buckingham, and others, for queftioning the 
legality of parliament, February 15, 1677, and did not 
obtain his liberty till the 24th' of February in the fol¬ 
lowing year. When Charles II. was defirous of forming 
a popular adminiftration, lord Shaftelbury was nomi¬ 
nated, April 20, 1679, lord prefident of the council. 
His lordlhip embarking for Amllerdain, in 1682, died in 
that city, January 22, 1683. He was the principal pa¬ 
tron of the celebrated John Locke. 
Anthony Alhley, third earl of Shaftelbury, his grand- 
fon, is faid to have owed part of his education to the 
affiduity of Mr. Locke. He was a nobleman of high 
and unbleinilhed reputation; and by his great work, 
entitled “ Charadteri flics of Men, Manners, Opinions, 
and Times,” he ranks in the firft order of the Britilh 
claffics. He died February 15, 1713.
