Tennyson's Interview with the Queen.
It was in the latter part Of 1862, the
year after the death of the prince consort,
that was conyersing with Mrs. Tenny-
son on the sudden death of a much val
ued common friend and the loneliness Of
his widow, when Tennyson, who had
been stalking up and down the end Of
the bow windowed drawing room with
his usual long strides, suddenly broke in
with, Il saw another widow three days
ago." Indeed" l replied, "and who
was that" "The queen" he replied in
his deepest tones. "She sent for me to
Osborne" 1 said that l supposed her
majesty wished to thank him for his
noble tribute to the memory of the
prince consort, and with perhaps par
donable curiosity went on to ask what
the queen had said to him. Il can't re-
member" he answered; Il lost my head.
only remember what / said to the
queen-big fool that l was!"
"What was thatg' "Why, what an
excellent king Prince Albert would have
made. AS soon as it was out of my
mouth felt what a blunder / had made.
But happily it proved to be the very
right thing to have said. The queen re-
Piled that that had been the constant
sorrow Of her life-that she was called
to govern, while he who was so worthy
Of the first place was obliged to take a
secondary position" Tennyson had lit
tie more to say Of his reception except
that, Notwithstanding the perfect calm
ness and self restraint Of the queen, and
the sweet consideration she manifested
for him, the interview was a peculiarly
trying one, and he was glad when it
was over.-Canon Venables in London

The sandrincham Funeral sermon.


The wide interest taken in the quss-
ton Of recognition in eternity was illus
trated by the extraordinary sale Of the
sermon preached at Sandringham on the
decease of the Duke of Clarence and
Avondale, the eldest son Of the Prince
and Princess of Wales.
The profits during the short period Of
six months amounted to no less than
81 800, Of which the sum Of $3.50 was
given by the Princess Of Wales to the
Gordon Bows home and $3.50 to the
British Home for mcurables. Over j0,-
900 copies were sold in that time--a sale
certainly unprecedented in the annals
of profit from a single sermon Of a few
pages.
The preacher has been heard to say
that this sale was not due to his slender
sermon, but to the touching anecdote
told by the princess, forming the prefa-
tory note, and which she gave permits
sion to be printed. The substance Of
the story is that in 1888 all the five chill
dren of the princess were with her at
Sandringham, and they all partook of
holy communion together. II gave
Eddy little book" said the bereaved
mother, ''and wrote in it,
"Nothing in my hand bring,
Simply to thy cross l cling,
"and also
"Just as / am. without one plea,
But that thy blood was shed for me,
o Lamb Of God, l come.
"When he was gone, and lay like one
sleeping" continued the princess, "we
laid a cross of flowers on his breast, and
after we had done so / turned to the ta-
BILE at his bedside and saw the little book
in which were written these words, and
l could not help feeling that he did cling
to the cross, and that it had all come

We are told regularly-periodically
told-that the eminent politician earns
his country's gratitude. We have much
to be thankful for, we little ones, but
we have indeed cause to be truly thank
full that we are not destined to earn such
gratitude as that. How many politi-
clans, say, during the past century may
be said to have earned their country's
gratitude? How many out of the great
multitude of politicians Is there one?
Is there one man Of whom his country
men are willing to say, with an even
nearly unanimous voice, 1--WE owe that
man our heartfelt gratitude; il is his;
we give it him." As they sometimes
cry in the arena Of his former struggles:
"Name. Namew
Doubtless every man Jack Of those ex-
tinct eminent politicians-for extinct
they are as the dodo, TO all practical in
tents and purp0ses-has his followers as
he had them then. And equally true it
is that he has his opponents, quite in the
good old way. What sort of gratitude
is it which consists in being set up by
one set of men for another set of men to
knock you down? Those eminent poll
ticians have handed on their wrangles
to our eminent politicians. We are
wrangling just ON the same old lines.
If we look deeply into the matter we
shall begin to doubt if we have advanced
much farther than they did. We are
making the. same old plunges in the
same old lucky bag.-All the Year
