(GOid>bOrO AIgus.)


The good Queen Victoria is dead
She has been one of the best rulers
England has ever had-if not the
best, and the world respected her,
and millions loved her. almost s. q

was married to her cousin Albert.
Prince of Sa1e-Coburg-Gotha, who
died Decem Der II. 1861.
She was but Is years old when she
came TO the throne. and was then
known rs the Little Qucen"-in
those far off years Of three score and
more. Very beautiful the little Queen
looked in the old abbey that noon
time in June three and sixty wears
ago. the historian tells us; and one
could well believe the historian true
Tor once. She was surrounded bv

mony OF the worlds greatest empire.
and right radiant was the beautiful
bride of the State-radiant in beauty
and youth and imperial power, with

lay and had been sleeping for more
than two hundred Years: by her side.
Mary, too-she of Scots. who had
gone to the headsman when life was

In such pomp and circumstance Of
power the crown was placed on the
head Of the girl Queen, year and a

maiden-bed TO be saluted as .over-

she wandered about with her lover
under the mighty oak. at grand old
Windsor. she was as sweetheart like
as every little sweetheart of the June
time; gave similar silly answers to
similar silly questions. and the
Majesty of England became her not
half 50 well as the crown of love that
blessed her.
From the little Queen Of the long
gone June and its glad afterwhile.
she has grown to be known as the old
sorrows whom the world loves and
reverences-come at length to lie
down on sleep. while her empire
mourns. and the people Of ali nations
pay tribute Of reverent regret that
she i. dead; while the few. old and
gray now. who were coeval with her
halcyon days and happy welded life,
let their thoughts wander back to the
long lost June and the long lost
lover. and fondlv hope that the van
