the sweetness went the fatal lncapacity to say
mo" dread OF argument and of the vigorous
expression Of opposing opinion, even when ne
felt it strongly" Hyde declared that if he did
not hope the boy would outgrow that infirmty
it would break his heart. That organ Of the
great Chancellor was tough by nature and
usage. but, in the years that followed it had per
force to bear many strain; for the young
princes character did not greatly change. Moral
courage did not develop in him. though physi-
cal courage did. The blood of Darnley mingled
in his veins with the blood of Henri Quatre-a
mixture of weakness and unregulated impulse.
They say that Charles in his later years was
wont to excuse his vices the ground that
they were bequeathed to him by the soldier OF
Navarro. From his father came to the lad an
inheritance which was all that he did not spend
in those years OF exilc-a constitutional melan-
choly which, it must be confessed. he had little
chance to conquer. The tragedy that made him
King at eighteen opened to him a vista of mis-
cry and humiliation
During his fathers trial the youth strove use
lessly and pathetcally to avert the final ca
tastrophe- He besouEht the States General TO
interfere, Offering the surrender Of his own per
surety for the fulflment OF any Condi-
tons imposed by Parliament: he sought des-
perateIy for help from his French relations: he
wrote in despair an appeal to Fairfax: and at
last sent to the House of Commons "a blank
paper, signed and sealed by himself. on which
they might inscribe what terms they chose as
the price of his fathers life"
But all proved unavailing. and on February the
news Of the Kings death was broken to the prince
by DR.. GOffe who after general converse
ton, addressed him suddenly Your Majesty"
Charles comprehended instantly. and bursting into
tears rushed into his bedroom. where he INDUCED
his grief in solitude

monarch. He would have had mourning for

Of Orange, had not supplied it. More than that

companions with the very necessaries OF Ife
Thus. for many year after the failure OF the
Scottish and Irish attempts to restore the King.
Charles was to live on the charity of relatives
or brother soyereigns. who grew more and more
anxious to be rid of him. Idle, unhappy and
un!Oved, besieged by notifications. at odds
with his mother the hot tempered daughter Of
Navarro, Charles sank into a state Of dissipa-
ton that certainly went near to break the
hearts of loyal followers like Hyde. There had
been glimpses of better things in the time Of
stress following his fathers death. 1t is re-
corded that in Scotland in 1861 the youth had
displayed in gathering together new army an
untiring energy and extraordinary ability. sur
prisng to both friend and foe:
Nothing too trivial to claim his attention.
nothing too troublesome for his undertaking. and
his ready tact and personal charm enabled him to
smooth difficulties, COnciate hostile interests
and rally all to his standard with an ease and
rapidly that was truly marvellous Cromwell him

reviewer is often more amusing than discreet,
but there are times when his retOrt cannot but
excite the sympathy Of the OnlOoker. 1t Oc-
CURED to Spectator reviewer Of a volume of
Mr.. Herbert Pauls History Of Modern Eng
land to remark that "an author who
in a single year has published two volumes of
modern history, and has simultaneously pro
duced a long biographical appreciation of
great historian, cannot possibly find time for
the research which every historical writer ought
to undertake" Mr. Paul swoOps down upon
the reviewer, protesting that this is a direct
charge Of literary impOsturc," and branding it
as false. Every word Of his volume he points
out, was written, revised and printed before he
had the least idea that he should write his
biography Of Froude. 81 have never written
history with haste" he declares. 1T would be
idiotc and ineXcuSable" He goes on to explain
that one statement which the reviewer had
cited in proof Of haste embodics his deliberate
Judgment and on another point he pays his
compliments to The Spectator with equal de
ciSion All of this the journal regards as an
attack OH its good faith, adding that if such n
review as the one in question is to he regarded
as injurious, literary criticism must either
cease altogether or become purely euIogistic ="

SUNDAY, MARCH %, 1906.

Mr. Thomas Wright the industrious biOg
rapher, has recently produced life of the late
Sir Richard Burton. In the course of it he has
occasion to make some mention Of 1.-The Scented
Garden" the manuscript Of which Lady Burton
destroyed and this is part of what he says:
You are to see the old man, always ailing
sometimes in acute pain-working twenty-five
hours a day as IT were, in order to get COM
pIeted a work by which he supposed he was to
live forever. In the same room sits the wife
who dearly loves him, and whom he dearly
loves and trusts. A few days pass. He is gone
She burns page by page, the work at which he
had tOiled so long and so patiently.
OF course Mr.. Wright's account of the mat
ter has revived discussion of an episode which
we had hoped had been pigeOnholed for good
In the London Times for example, we read
that Lady Burton was affectiOnate and well
meaning viii not be denied; but that any one
not crazy with selfCOnCeit and sGlfSudicCncy
would have ventured upon such 4 course upon
her own sole authority and the counsel of an
iliterate priest is plainly untenable view"
The sober truth is that, whether self-cOnCeited
or not and quite apart from the educational
limitations of her adviser Lady Burton adopted
a course for which she must be hOnored by all
right thinking people. If the secrets Of The
Scented Garden" must be got at let them be
got at by the few Oriental scholars qualified to
dig them out for themselves.
