with peremntory refusal, and her

The Queens Daily Life at Windsor.
8 Greville has left a graphic letter of
y the young sovereign's mode of life at
i Windsor, Of her regular habits, ASST
duty in work, activity, cheerfulnesS
and good nature. She rose early, and
all the morning was devoted to bust

Her majesty has always regretted
that she was not a little taller. Not !
quite tail enough for queen" she
said once or twice, and we read in
her journal that the princess royal ran
and jumped as of old. though ] fear
still little as Victoria used to do" ''Such
a little love of a queen, wrote Lady
Granville to her sister but her being
rather short does not deprive the
queen of real majesty" Before age
sard infirmities had wrought their us
JsI sad effects, her walk and carriage
were most beautiful and her manner

have not dimmed her bright. limpid
blue eyes and her smile is as sweet as

Queen.
The queens laborious habits were
encouraged and developed by Prince
tAlbert. whose sole aim in life, as he
told his father, was to be Of use to
Victoria" Her majesty has been sin
gularly fortunate in the character and
devotion of al her early advisers, and
prince Albert's influence, in her pri-
vate and official life, cannot be too
highly estima ted. The lofty moral at

the purity honesty and simplicity of
their life, were admirable examples for
the nation.
