its consummaton, when Queen Victoria stood
rcverentially before the tomb of her countfy's
mortal enemy in the wierd torch-light which
tlickered along the walls of the lnvalitles. She
stood there as the dependent of his nephew--a
suppliant to the mercy of the Napoleonic race,
which knows no mercy for its foe--a Queen in
name beside an Emperor in fact. Did the
spirit Of Sir Hudson Lowe hover around the
scene? Did the laugh of the old guard"
which, according to the German legend, attends
the nightly reviews Of lie petit carporal on the
dreary shore of st. Helena, ring scornlaly
through the sombcr walls? No; it was but
fancy, but the vengeance Of the Napoleons Was
q reality.
The visit of Queen Victoria to Paris was
little more than a conqueror's pageant, in
which she acted the part of a distinguished
captive, which could not be endured by her for
Il moment, it single drop Of Boadiceas blood
remained in the veins of modern royalty. She
was received with magnihcence which threw
her efforts at display on the occasion of Napo-
Icons visit to London into the shade and
showed, as Sterne says, that " they do these
things better in France !" but the cheers with
