RESPECTING Queen Victoria, and the
high esteem which England holds for her
as sovereign, the London Lancet has
this to say:
ut is no mere figure Of speech to say the
Queen lives in the hearts OF those she rules
over. Its, therefore, not in the least surprs.
ing that tho notification Of her Majesty's
projected visit to Mentonc should have excited
much remark aud given rise to some anxet.es.
We believe we are justified in stating that
while there is need for the change, there is no
cause for concern as to the health Of tho
sovereign. II seems to have been forgotten
that the Queen is no mere nominal head OF this
Empire. Actual and heavy State business
passes iaily through her hands and taxes her
attention severely. Her Majesty has never
been In the habit OF attaching her sign manual
10 unread papers. She assembled the throne in
times OF difficulty and with strong sense OF
duty and responsibility imposed upon her, and
during the heightened period which has elapsed
since her accession the Qneen has given large
Ihare OF her attention to public business. Sue
,cssive Ministries have been formed borne the
heat Of the day and fallen, leaving their per-
sonnel to seek and find relief and recreation in
retirement, but the Queen has never been free
from the burden Of State, since first she wore
the crown. Its real burden her Majesty bears,
burden, care and anxiety, and no human
being could fail to feel the continuous strain
tho bearing Of such burden necessarily pro-
duces. These facts should not be forgotten.
The need for change of scene and climate just
now is great, but not in any sense ominous."
