rogued to-day. The Queens speech

hold anaiable relations with all foreie n
powers. Notwithstanding the failure to
conclude commercial treaty with France,
there has not been any general decline in
dealings between the two countries. She
expresses gratitude to the British and
Indian forces for their work in the Epyp-
| tian campaign. The recent events in Eoynt
enhanced her obligations in regard to its
| affairs. She will study to discharge her
duties SO as to maintain international en-
| gagements, uphold and consolidate the
privileges that have been acquired,
and promote the happiness of the people
| and the prudent development of their in
stitutions. The queen also says she will
| endeavor to avoid any measure likely to
tend towards disturbing the tranquility of
| tie East. She feels confident her aims
and the result of her counsels will COM
mend themselves to the approval of the
powers, her allies in their several relations
to that interesting region. The growth of
the revenue of Great Britain has been SEN
sibly retarded but by cause which in itself
is to be contemplated with satisfaction.

on intoxicating liquors. She anticipates
distress this winter in some parts of Ire
land. She refers with deep pain to the as
sassinations which have been rife in Dub
lin. There is a special call of duty upon

the powers with which they. are entrusted.

improvement she hopes viii be maintained.
