Lox non displayed yesterday morning t*alr of
repose, eland of lassitada, whip* usually 'glows
days of plassereoreking. But a little steer mid-day i
the stillness was hears us upon by the firing of the I
Park and Tower guns. The meaning of the salvoes
was perfretly vadentocel, though little had been
said about the riposted crest. Anchor Primus
had bees tarn to England. A "little stranger. bed .
arrived, to occupy a phase at the Inside d Baeldsg-
ham Palace which is about to be vacated by the eldest
been. 'rho intent enters uneosiscioasly into the try- '
hie cues of life, while its alder deter is looking tar-
warel—hahtirartully halthopiagly—to the untried
duties of maters-hoed. Thus slips the world away ! '
Our QUIRN premises to rival in the number of
her desesadaata her gmadihther of tractions
memory. And as far as setting an example of
moral purity in their domestic relation' is con-
cerned, the present occupant of the Throne of
England and her Royal Congaed take rank even
with that model royal husband and his Queen. The
relations of our Sovereign to her subjects are, on the
contrary, iallaitely mare creditable and eatisfadary
than those of her grandaire. The whole carter of
GIORGE 111., as sovereign, was devoted to a
struggle to exercise as nook of absolution as was
consistent with his safety. The earlier part of his
reign was spent in a coolest with his nobles—
the latter, in a contest with his people. Ills qua-
Miss he displayed in the strife were dogged obsti-
nacy. small aiming, and an aptitude for wheedling
and esteeming all (when it served his purpose),
while he cared for none. Verily he had his re-
ward. His domestic habits, his domestic
purity, won npoo the Rational sentiment ; and yet,
though he was an applauded, and even an admire' cl,
ha Can seareely be said to have been a beloved,
sovereign. He cannot be said to have trusted his
people t his issegination was too much haunted
with visions of Jacobins and Democrats. He had
to undergo the mertifloation of being beaten by the
repalliesns at America ; and though, owing to the
change of parts assumed by the rival nations in the
cause of the protracted war of the European ono-
lotion, England ultimately make off with the advan-
tage over France, the intellectual light of the old
Ring was quenched before the day of triumph
arrived. A happier lot has bee, that of his
gentler granddaughter, who has known so
admirably to confine herself within the
limit' prescribed to a constitutions' love-
reign. She has never sought to array a party
of Quaver friends" in hostility to the statesmen
designated for office by the recommendation of Par-
liament and the people. She has respected the
constitutional rights of all. And therefore has she
enjoyed the people's love, eonfidersor, and voluntary
obedience, in an age when those principles which
in her grandfather's time were deemed incompatible
with the exercise of a royal prerogative have
become the law of the land.
The instinctive wisdom of Queen VicrostA has
taught her to adapt herself to the requirements of
an age in which the English people are unprece-
dentedly jealous of their rights and conscious of their

power. To this political sagacity, combined with
her taintless domestic life, the world is indebted

ter the spoessele of matronly dignity, waited on,
fondled, and cherished by a more wilful and an-

tamed lion than ever bowed the neck in fable to the
influence of a timid virgin. The wild democracy
of England cherishes its Qtar.ft with a love sur-
passing the love of woman. It follows her with ad-
miring eye, whether she takes part in some pageant
of the State, or extends a graceful patronage to lite-
rature, science, and industrial or imaginative art;
and it glows with sympathy for all her maternal
