Victoria assembled the throne ut an in

last three monarchs who had sat upon
our throne had done little to make
their Office easy or glorious. George III

lost us n vast colony and which might

George " had died unwept and I'M
pitied. As lie had made his dstin-
Guishcd Office scandal. AS he had
made his throne ridiculous by n deplor
able levity Of taste and conduct, so he
had forfeited the affection of his peo-
pie and alienated their sympathy long
before death overlook him. There
never was an individual" proclaimed
The Times but few weeks after his
death. less regretted by his fellow
creatures than this deceased king.
What eye has wept for him? What
heart has heaved one throb of unnec-
essary sorrow" And The Times eX-
pressed in those bitter words nothing
less than the popular judgment.
Nor can II he said that William "
graced the throne Of Britain. Loved

neatly dressed i'm black. with an air OF
extreme poverty. She told wretchcd
tale of sorrow and suffering. winding
up with the climax that she and her
little family were actually starving and
had not tasted food for two days. The
judge seemed deeply moved. He cx-
cused himself for not attending to the
case for the moment, as the senate was
nearly ready TO open.
He looked at his watch with an air
of vexation. MS IL it were not going.
and said. "Can any one tell me what
time 1t isT" His visitor pulled out

judge said. Can II he true that your
children have been without food for

point of the judges question and called
out, "You are hateful old thing" and
flounced out of the room. She was
