QUEEN'S THREAT TO ABDICATE.

NEW STORIES OF VICTORIA.

ATTACKS ON BEE HUSBAND.

Lady Frances Bolour has discharg ed a family duty to her ancestor in her "Life of George Fourth Earl of Aber- dean" (just published, Hodder and Stoughton, 2 vols., £2 2). A quarter of a century ago Lard Stanmore, ona

of the fourth carl's sons, produced a whort: Fife of bin father, in which ho ekimmed the cream off most of the documente Low pristed by Lady Frances Balfour; but the present biography will be indispensable to specialists in the history of the first half of the 19th century.

Some intereating letters from Queen Victoria, which were not printed by Lord Stanmore are contained in these two volumes. During the Crimean War there was an outbreak of cholera, and the Archbishop of Canterbury proposid that a form of prayer against the disease should be used. The Queen'e comment wás: Shattrongly objects to these special prayore, which are, in fact, not a sign of gmtitude to, or confidence in, the Almighty; for if this is to be the course to be pursued, we ought to have one For every illness, and certainly in 1837 the influenza was notoriously, more 'fatal than the cholera bos ever barn. yet no cae would have thought of baving a prayer against that.

AUNT BUSPECTED. Queen Victoria was deeply wounded by popular critici, which treated her husband, the Prince Consort, na the "if agent of the Austro-Belgian- Coburg Orleans clique, the arowed enemies of England." She wrote.to Aberdeen in bitter indignation:

Were the Queen to believe that these cuprincipled and immoral in- sinuations really were those of any bat a wicked and despicable few, she would leave a position which nothing but, her domestic happiness, could make her endure, and retire to private life-leaving the country to choose another ruler after their heart's content.

This threat to abdicate was not pressed because Lord Aberdeen perenaded her that it would be wiser to treat the whole matter with contempt and to consign it to

oblivion.'

In another Law Intter - Queen Victops complains that...

Amongst other matters there is one which the Quren is shocked at, for it is ugther. more not less than pedting her aunt, the Duchess of eldent risers of promoting Fintrigner in Rey poder the name of Mazini sand ordering her to be watch d

Some girls bon the threshold of womanhood drift into a declinain spite of all care and attention. Even strong and anally lively girls become weak, depressed, irritable and listless.
