A Great-grahdm0t


= To the latter venerable condition our
Queen attained before she had completed
her sixtieth year, circumstance which
we believe can not be said of any of her
predecessors on the throne; scarcely any
of whom, indeed, lived to see their chill
dren of the third generation. There was
time-"'tis sixty years since" and
more-when the nation was confidently
looking forward to the birth of a great
grandchild of the reigning monarch and
his Queen, child who might now have
been our King had he lived: Who shall
saw that Providence has not ordered
events otherwise for the great good Of
this nation2
Who that; considers the parentage
from which she sprang can wish that the
Princess Charlotte had lived to succeed
her father? Little did those who MOURN
ed in November, 1917, imagine what
compensation was in store for all who
loved their country bestinterests, under
the rule of another Princess not born
until eighteen months later. That Queen
Victoria should have lived already to see
her eldest daughter grandmother seems
to be in accordance with those outward
signs Of prosperity which, by the rules Of
poetic Justice, such life and such q
reign as her Majesty's deserve. And
when we pray vivat Regina, we are in
clined t., add. sand may she live to be a
great-great-grandmother." In the classes
who marry early, which are the highest
and the lowest, it is not such very un-
common thing for persons to live to be
great-rrandparents.
Probably every country parish can pro-
duce one. or two specimens among the
/ poor. And in the annals of the great
and noble, carefully preserved by such
4 chroniclers as Sir Bernard Burke and
4 Capt. Dod we sometimes meet with curl
ous cases Of longevity and Ito coin {

He took her gently by the hsnd
And looked into her face 30 clever,
W bile fortune seemed to weave q oand
About them death alone could sever.
For be, in accents low and swee',
Declared she was lovely creature,
While she in language smooth and neat,
Pronounced him grand in form and feature.
They talked Of rings and wedding days
Until the town clock struck eleven
OF carriages aud prsncipg bays
And all was honey, love and heaven
Nor dreamed of aught but happiness
As they stood on the walk 8 cooipg;,
But All! how short was loves young DIES,
For DER their heads storm was brewing
He held her closely to his breast.
His lips the sweets of hers we've proving,
When something did their thoughts arrest;
1t was window upward moving.
And straight form in night gown
Far Gu. the opening wss extended,
Pouring 4 ood of wate' down
All by pitcher huge attended.
Tia water drenched the madens clo,he'.
While chagrin did her being cover;
And square upon his msssive nose
The vessel struck her youthful lover.
This mishap sealed the maiden's fate,
For ss her lover madly swore
He bolted lhl ough the garden gate,
And her ssd eyes meier saw him moro.
