between her and the succession; and
when she assembled the throne on June
20, 1887, the people of England felt rest
less and discouraged. But the young
rirl, whose succession was viewed with
so much alarm, developed into one of
the ablest rulers of the world. Without
being ultra-conservative, she insisted
upon the observation of every form and
ceremony calculated to inspire respect
for the monarchy, and, at the same time,
granted many privileges to the common
fought desperately by her stubborn
predecessors, the Georges. Her mar
riage, February 10, 1910, TO her cousin,
Prince Albert of Saxe-Gotha, with
whom she had long been deeply in love,
was not received favorably by her sub
iects, who did not become reconciled to
it until after the princes death, De-
ccmber IA, 1861. Then it began to dawn
upon the cordid British minds that there
might be such a thing as love, after all;
and cities, villages and hamlets joined
in expressing sympathy for their be-
reavcd queen. The noble gentleman
who, in his lifetime, had been ridiculed
and lampooned by duke and pauper,was
held up to the world as a pattern of
man and husband. The praise came too
late, however, to please the queen, who
showed her devotion to the memory of
her consort by remaining faithful to it..
During their 21 years of married life
the queen and her consort were blessed
with nine children. all of whom are liv-
ing except Leopold, duke of Albany,
who died March rs, 1854, and Princess
Alice, wife of Grand Duke Frederick
William of Hesse, who died December
II, 1878. The children still living are
Albert Edward, prince of Wales, the
duke of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha; the duke
ofConnaught; the empress Frederick of
Germany; Princess Christian of Den
mark; Princess Louise, wife of the
marquis of Lorne, and Princess Beatrice

tenberg, died recently in South Africa

The momertous political events, in
which Queen Victoria took an active
