and here we may just stop to say that
the loving care evinced by the prince

queen In every successive accouchment
In 1841 Sir Robert Peel became pre-
mler, and profiting by the advice of
her sagacious husband and Lord Mel
bourne, the queen received him in
friendly spirit accepting his decision
regarding the ladies Of her household
who were chosen from the families Of
the new ministry, and thereby Wiping
out the bitterness of her unconStitutiOn-
al act few years earlier, when she had
declined to make these necessary
changes in her household Amid the
many engagements, which 1t fell to
the royal couple to fulfill, one Of more
than passing interest was the launch
of the Trafalgar, at which some $4,000
people were present, the ship being
christened by Nelson's niece, Lady
Brdport. During this year, 1S41, the
Prince Of Wales was born.
Throughout the country there was an
increasing interest in all subjects per-

the Thames tunnel marked the COM

was born in the next year to increase
the happy family, but death had mean
time chastened the loving circle, for on
Jan. 29 Prince Albert, to his great
grief, learned of the death of his father.
For the queen, it was a year of royal
receptions; the king of Saxony, the
Tsar Nicholas, the Prince of Prussia,
the king Of the French and the king
and queen Of the Belgians, all partook
Of her majesty's courtly hospitalities,

tance from the nation. A state visit
to the city of London took place on
Oct. 2S, 1874, when her majesty opened
the new royal exchange. The next year
marked the commencement Of the Sikh
wars, which were not concluded till the
year 1S49, when the terrible battle at
Chillianwalla was fought by Lord
Cough, who had better fortune at Goo
Jerat, when the insurgent chiefs sur

Travel was at all times very favor
fte pleasure with the queen, and in the
year 1845 she had the great and senti.
mental pleasure Of going with her hus-
band to his fatherland. With the re-
V1Val Of commerce under PeePS pre-
miership, disposition to speculate, and
particularly in railroads, suddenly
sprang up.
On Jan. %, 1916, Peel explained in
an eloquent speech why he gave up
protection and proposed to bring in
free trade, and on June 25 the bill
passed the house of lords, and the
corn laws were repealed, in which
movement Richard Golden and John
Bright were the chief agents, their
energetic and untiring zeal in this very
necessary reform being the principal
means Of passing the bill. This was
PeePs last great work in the house,
for which Disraeli, among others. at
Cackeu nlm severely. On the night
when the lords passed the repeal of the
corn laws the premier was forced to
resign, Lord John Russell succeeding
him. By this time the queens feel
ings had greatly changed towards
Peel, and, having in the beginning re-
ceived him reluctantly, she now bade
adieu to him most sorrowfully, deem
ing his outgoing an irreparable loss to
the country. In these perturbed times
a fifth baby was born at Buckingham
palace (May %, 1S46) to whom the
name was given of Helena Augusta
Victoria. Meanwhile beautiful house
had been built for the queen at Os-
borne, and the grounds tastefully laid
out according to the designs of Prince
Albert, and in September the queen
dined here for the first time.
The new year opened somewhat sad
ly, and at the opening of parliament,

guerreotype. This same year has a more
sentimental interest for us in the en-
gagement OF her majesty with Prince
Albert, young man as ideal in thought
and character as the queen whom he
welded, and whose transformations and
lofty influence was eXerted alike for
good over Victoria and her subjects.
The romance of the royal lovers is g.
theme the attraction of which never
Wanes, and the match which had been
so ardently desired by those nearest
concerned, became one Of the deepest
and truest love.
The opening of the year 1840 brought
great happiness to the queen; 1t Is
true she had to suffer many annOyan-
ces from those who would not grant
her natural womanly wish to let her
husband rank next to her, and who
had struggled against allowing him a
grant suitable for his position, but
otherwise the course Of true love run
very smooth, and on, Feb. 10, 1910, this
union of love was ratified. The day did
not dawn brightly, nevertheless the
route was lined throughout by loyal
people, seeking glimpse of the brides
happy face beneath her wreath of
orange blossom. Those seeking for
auspicious omens were delighted, how
ever, to note that the clouds rolled
away, and the sun shone brightly forth
when the happy pair Set forth on their
honeymoon. For the royal lovers only
one day Of absolute solitude was per-
missible Feb. III, when the young wife
wrote to her good friend, Baron Stock
mar, There cannot exist a dearer,
purer, nobler being In the world than
the prince" From sthe moment Of
their union the queen was singularly
humble towards the man whom the
world judges so exceptionally exalted
by his marriage.
A few months later the queen was
the victim Of one of those attempts oil
her life which have occurred from
time to time, the miscreant being
Edward Oxford, a potboy of seventeen
who fired at the queen as she drove
with the prince UP Constitution hill
in an open carriage. Oxford was
seized, and being subsequently judged
guilty and insane, was duly punished.
The royal pair were still more close
ly knit by the birth Of their firstborn,
Nov. 81. During the queens GONZALES

received a government rebuke, upon
which he resigned and came back,
though his scheme was finally adopted,
and in 1910 the two Canadas were unit
ed, and allowed to govern themselves,
governor general to represent the
queen being appointed from England.
1t was in 1887 that Benjamin Disraeli
entered parliament for the first time
as Tory member for Maidstone.
One likes to imagine her majesty as
she appeared at the time of her corona
ton, twelve months after her call to
the throne, not regal in height, but
with symmetrical figure and a digni-
fled mien which caused her stature
to be unobServed; her neck and should
erS were OF particular fairness, whilst
her arms and dainty hands were singu-
larly beautiful. Her eyes, Of a clear
blue, were steadfast in expression, her
complexion delicate pink and white
and she possessed rare charm Of ap-
pearance and an engaging smile.
For year she had grown in the love
Of the people, had shown how thorough
ly she meant to be queen regnant
in the largest sense Of the term, de-
voting herself heart and soul to the
cares Of state and government, and
showing, even to her ministers at times
how absolutely she was head Of ALL
when the glorious pageant Of the coro-
nation took place.
AS the date of the ceremony drew
near, London was crowded with vis-
itors; on the night Of June 27, 1888, thou
sands Of poor people slept on doorsteps
and in the booths in the parks, erected
ready for the three days fair. 1t was
only o'clock of the golden summer
morning when the doors Of Westmin-
ster Abbey were opened, and the favor
ed subjects hidden to attend there, be-
gan to arrive early, one peeress at least
being in her place before 7. The bril-
lance Of the spectacle grew momentar-
lily greater, as the lords and ladies in
glittering uniforms and gorgeous at
tire. flashing with Jewels, filled the
noble edifice. 1t was a little past 10
when the roar Of guns in the park an
nounced the queens progress cir

floating in the air, and the passionate
acclamations Of the joyous populace,
were sufficient to excite the Young
queen profoundly before she took her
part in the great ceremony. Her keen
eyes noted everything on the route.
and seeing the surging crowds being
put aside by free use of truncheonS,
she promptly ordered the master of the
horse to tell those in command that
1t was not her wish that any such for
chile measures should be used.
Arrayed in her coronation robes of
crimson velvet and ermine over her
gown of white satin, and with brill
liants flashing on the white throat,
the queen passed from the robing
room to the Abbey the principal figure
in that most beautiful and impressive
ceremonial, of which, perhaps, the cul-
mination was reached when the arch
bishop placed the crown upon Vic
torla's head, and each peeress raised

To US, looking back on these events
nearly sixty years later, we are again
struck with the wonderful self posses
sion and good sense OF the young
queen, Who after the coronation, with
its attendant fatigues. and excitements,
had wisely determined that there
should be no eXtravagant and weari-
some banquet in the evening, though a
hundred guests were entertained by
the queen the same night to dinner,
and ball was given to two thousand

fractions of that day the queen found
time to remember Lord Role, and to
send a kindly message Of inquiry
Meanwhile, England was making
steady advances. In 1887, the first
electric telegraph was used on the
Blackwell railway, and, in the year of
the coronation ships worked entirely
by steam for the first time crossed
from England to New ork, carrying
sufficient coal for the ssentire voyage.
