Lord Bencnnileld,s pnnnrs.

Lord Rowton, who has recently re-
turned from long visit to Pau, was at
Windsor last week on visit to the
Queen, who, | hear, is worry anxious for
the early publication of the first INSTALL
ment of Lord Beaconstield's papers. A
selection from his "remains" down to
the close of 1851 might appear at once,
hut it is maniiostly impossible that any
thing Of special interest relating to the
latter portion of his life can DO published
for long time to come, at least, with
out the risk of veXatious and irri.
tating controversies. Whatever is pub
lished will, of course, be more carefully
edited, or | suspect that the Queen
would be slightly astonishod at the bit
terneSs with which MIR. Disraeli in
weighed against the court for many
years, and particularly against Prince
Albert, who greatly disliked him, and
who, if he had lived, would have done
his best to prevent him from being Prime
Minister. | wonder whether Lord Row
ton will publish the correspondence
which passed when, contrary to ali
precedent, Mr.. and Mrs. Disraeli were
not invited to the state balls and con
ccrts. London Truth.
