THE TOMB OF THE YEARS.
BY STKLLA, OF LACKAWANNA.
A grave, dc-ep-scooped, on life T* swift travelled
highway,
_Yet irom its ro.ir and riot shut apart,
with (iirlous lights and shadows intermingled,
And shapes that make roe start.
Hath broken strangely on my wayward vision—
t Nor sought, nor welcome—as a special thing,
Crouching in silence where a moonless midnight
P olds its empurpled wing.
How strange it seems that the fair skies above
me
Should t>c so fair, or flowers with honied breath
Lilt their flushed cheeks to meet the loving sun
shine,
When every kiss is death !
And strange enough that human pain and pas
sion
Still barn their fires, though perished the sweet
years
That stirred the biood with life's insane ambi
tions.
To end, at last, in tears.
Oh, I remember, witli a nameless longing.
How grandly crowned the lost years came to
me.
And shook from their bright garments wondrous
Jewels.
Worth worlds like this to set
And I remember all the gems I gathered.
And how they glittered on my brow so long;
Their memory now the Prcrajicoot a flower—
The echo oi a song. « •
Unquiet lie the years where Time has laid them—
From their dim depths uplifts a mournful
swell,
Low and complaining as the murmurous cadence
Os ocean’s red-ilpped shell.
Os all the music throbbing through the valley,
Where vexed souls vainly seek an earthly bliss,
And look and long for rest that cometh never,
None yet so sad as this.
Beside their tomb, with memories greenly shel
tered,
My life has learned to linger and to wait.
Ami age, all wrecked, and youth,grown mad with
passion,
Steal through the shadowy gate:
We hear the tempest of uuuttered sorrows—
We watch the sunlight where the hope-waves
swell,
While tor the pale, dead years, we gather gar
lands—
The years we loved so well.
A KOVAL MEMOIR.
Queen Victoria’s Recollections of Prince Albert.
A Touching Story of then Married Life.
THE FIRST YEAR OF MARRI AGE.
Avery interesting chapter of this vol
ume is that which describes “The Fiist
Year of Marriage.” The demeanor of
Prince Albert is thus alluded to :
“It must be admitted, however, that
constantly, unostentatiously, and persev
eringly as he now gave himself up to the
discharge of his new duties, he was ex
posed, almost during the whole period of
his life in this country, to much miscon
ception and much misrepresentation. Not
for that, however, did he for one moment
relax in his efforts, or allow his zeal to
flag, in seeking to promote all that was
for the good of the British people. His
actions might be misunderstood, his opin
ions might be misrepresented (of which
there was more than one notable instance)
—[Note by the Queen: Especially at the
commencement of the Russian war] —but,
supported by his own conscious rectitude he
still pursued the even tenor of his way. Not
a complaint, not a muriner, ever escaped
his lips; not a single hasty expression did
lie ever iudulge in, even toward those who
were most unjust to him. He accepted
such injustice as the inevitable lot of one
placed, as he was, in high station, trusting
surely to the coming of the time when his
motives and actions would be better under
stood and appreciated by his adopted
country.
“The principle on which he always act
ed was (to use his own noble words) “to
sink his own individual existence in that
of his wife, to aim at no power by himself
or for himself, to shun all ostentation—to
assume no separate responsibility before
the public”—but, “making his position
entirely a part of the Queen’s, continually
and anxiously to watch every part of tho
public business, in order to be able to ad
vise or assist her at any moment in auy
of the multifarious and difficult questions
brought before her—sometimes political
or social, or personal, as the natural head
of her family; superintendent of her house
hold, manager of her private affairs, her
sole confidential adviser in politics, and
only assistant in her communications
with the officers of the Government.”
THE PRINCE AND PUBLIC AFFAIRS.
"It was not, however, for some time
that the position as described above was
established. For the first year or two the
Prince was not, except on rare occasions
and by special invitation, present at the
interviews of the Queen with her Minis
ters. [Note by the Queen : But this was
not from any objection on their part.]
Though taking, the Queen says, ‘great
pain9to inform himself about eveiy thing,’
and though Lord Melbourne expressed
much anexiety, ‘that the Queen should
tell him and show him everything con
nected with public affairs.’ * * * * *
‘He did not at this time take much part
in the transaction of business.’
“Nor werg there wanting those who
would gladly have kept him permanently
estranged from it, and not only so, but
who would have denied him, even in do
mestic circles, that authority which in
private families properly belong to the
husband, and without which, it may be
added, there cannot be true comfort or
happiness In domestic life. The Prince
himself easily saw the necessity of his as
serting that authority. “In my home
life,” he writes to Prince Lowenstein, in
May, 1840, “I am very happy and con
tented ; but the difficulty in filling my
place with the proper dignity is, that I
am only thp husband, not the master in
the house,” 1
THE PRINCE AND LORD"MELBOURNE
“Fortunately, however, for the country,
and still more fortunately for the happi
ness of the royal couple themselves, things
did not long remain in this condition.—
Thanks to the firmness, but at the same
time gentleness, with which the Prince
insisted on filling his proper position as
head of the family—thanks also to the
clear judgment and right feeling of the
Queen, as well as her singularly honest
and straitforward nature—but thanks,
more than all, to the mutual love aud per
fecteonfidence which bound the Queen and
Prince to each other, it was impossible to
keep up any separation or difference of
interests or duties between them. To those
who would urge upon the Queen that, as
Sovereign, she must be at the head of the
house aud family, as well as of the State,
and that her liusbaud was, after ail, but
one of her subjects, Her Majesty would
reply that she had solemnly engaged at
the alter to ‘obey,’ as well as to ‘love and
honor;’ sad this sacred obligation she
could consent neither to limit nor refine
away.
“From the first, too, the Queen, acting
on the advice of Lord Melbourne, commu
nicated all foreign dispatches to the Prince.
In August, IWO, he writes to his father:
‘Victoria allows me to take much part in
foreign affairs, and I think I have already
done some good. I always commit my
views to paper, and then communicate
them to Lord Melbourne, He seldom
answers me but l have often bad the sat
isfaction of seeing him act entirely in ac
cordance with what I have said.’ And
again, in April, 1849; “All I can say about
my political position, is, that I study the
politics of the day with great industry,
and resolutely hold aloof from all parties
(firt/ahre mich ton alien Partein freizu
alten). I take active interest in all na-

tional institutions and associations,
speak quiet openly with the ministers on
all subjects, so as to obtain information,
and meet on all sides with much kindness.
* * * I endeavor to be of as much use
to Victoria in her position as l can.
“Here we have the first announcement
of that principle by which the whole of
his future life was guided, and to which
many years later he gave the noble ex
pression already quoted, of‘Sinking his
individual existence in that the Queen.’
“Slowly, but surely, acting on that
principle, did he establish his position;
and so entirely was it recognized by the
Queen herself, so unreservediyand confid
ingly did she throw herself upon her
husband’s support, relying it. all questions
of difficulty on his judgment, and acting
in all things by his advice,that when sud
denly bereaved of that support her sense
of the loss w’hich she had sustained as
Queen found expression in the pathetic
words, ‘that it would now be, the Ijegin
ningof anew reign !’”
DOMESTIC LIFE
The ordinary life of thi Queen and
Prince is thus described .
“It has been already stated that the
Queen up to the period of her marriage,
had indulged strong feelings of political
paitizanship. Among the .happy couse
quences-of the marriage mu be included
the gradual extinction of a.** “(2. h feeling.
The Piinee h\s already j u the
discussions and correspondence respecting
the formation of his household, his own
determination to stand clear from all
political parties. Lord Melbourne now,
most honorably to himself, supported the
Prince in pressing the same course upon
the Queen. He told the Prince that he
thought the time was come when His
Majesty should have a general ‘amnesty
for the Tories;’ and on being spoken to by
the Queen, to whom the Prince had re
ported what he had said, repeated that
such was his opinion.
“On another occasion the Queen records
that Lord Melboune, speaking of tho
Prince, said, looking at him w’ith tears in
his eyes. ‘There is an amazing feeling for
him—every one likes him;’ and then adds:
‘Then speaking of Tories, against whom
the Queen was very irate, Lord Melbourne
said, “‘You should now hold out the olive
branch a little. ’”
“Levees, drawing-rooms, presentation,
addresses, great dinners, state visits to the
theatres, &e, &c., followed the marriage in
rapid succession. The first levee was held
on the 19th of Febuary, on which, as on
all other similar occasions for the future,
as well as at the opening of Parliaments,
or other state ceremonies, the Prince led
the Queen in and stood on her leu hand.—
On one occasion, the Tth of March, the
Prince received and personally answered
no less than twenty-seven addresses in one
day. He was at first, the Queen says, a
little nervous when addresses were pre
sented to him to which he had to give
answers, though not nearly so nervous, it
seems, as many ot those by whom the
addresses were presented. Mr. Anson,
who generally attended the Prince in
these ceremonies, used to tell many ludi
crous stories about them, but said that
nothing could be better or more dignified
than the way in which the Prince went
through them. The Queeu also gave
many dinners often followed by little
dances, and thv,y went frequently to the
play, of which tne Prince was always very
fond.
“Among other plays which they went
to see at this time, the Queeu mentions
six special performance < which were got
up at Covent Garden, then under the
management of Madame Vestris and Mr.
Charles Mathews, in which Charles Kem
ble reappeared in some o.f Bhakspeare’s
principal cheraeters. Thw Prince thor
oughly enjoyed and appointed Shalcsperw
and In later years took greatest inter
est in the revival of his piays, pnder the
management of Mr. Charles Kean, at the
Princes’. We may also mention here, in
further proof of this, that some years later,
when theatrical performances were got up
at Windsor Castle, two if not three nights
out of the six were devoted to Shakspere.”
COUNTRY LIFE.
The Prince ardently loved the country,
and the Queen soon acquired bis taste, in
1840 the Queen rites:
“I told Albert that formerly I was too
happy to go to Condon, and wretched to
leave it, and now, since the blessed hour
of my marriage, and still more since the
summer, I dislike and am unhappy to
leave the country, and could be content
and happy never to go to town. This
pleased him. The solid pleasures of a
peaceful, quiet, yet merry life in the coun
try, with my inestimable husband and
friend, my all in all, are far more durable
than tlie amusements of London, though
we don’t despise or dislike these some
times.”
As years went on this preference for the
country, on the part of the Queen grew
stronger and stronger, “till residence in
London became positively distasteful to
her.” Her Majesty says in a note that it
was also injurious to her health, as she
suffered much from the extreme weight
and thickness of the atmosphere, which
gave her the headaohe. Residence in
London was, in fact, “only made endura
ble by having her beloved husband at her
side to share with her and support her in
the irksome duties of court receptions and
state ceremonials. The Prince, however,
was always auxious that the Queen should
spend as much of her time as she could in
London, though the sacrifice to him was
so great.
General Grey, commenting on the duty
of the domestic life of the royal family and
the freedom of Prince Albert from the
vices of former generations of the royal
family, observes: “Above all, he has set
an example for his children from which
they may be sure they can never deviate
without falling in public estimation, and
running the risk of undoing the work
which he has been so instrumental in
accomplishing.”
THE FIRST -SOBN.
When the Princess ItfcyalVas born, “for
a moment only.” the Queen says, “was
he disappointed at its being a daughter
and not a sou.” During the time the Queen
was laid up, “his dai’e aqd devotion,” the
Queen records, “were quite beyond ex
pression.” He was content to sit by her
in a darkened room, to read to her, or
write to her. A memorandum by Her
Majesty says:
“No one but himself ever lifted her from
her bed to her sofa, and he always helped
to wheel her on her bed or sofa into the
next room. For this purpose he would
come instantly, when sent for, 'from aDy
part of the house. As years went on, and
he became overwhelmed with work, (for
his attentions were the same in all the
(queen’s subsequent confinements,) this
was often done at much inconvenience to
himself, but he ever came with a sweet
smile on his face. ‘ln short,’ the Queen
adds, ‘his care of her was like that of a
mother, nor could their be a kinder, wis
er, or more judicious nurse.’ ”
PERSONAL HABITS OF THE PBISCE.
One passage describes the personal hab
its of the Prince :
“From the moment of his establishment
in the English palace as the husband of
the Queen, his object was to maintain and,
if possible, even raise the character of the
Court. With this view he knew it was
not enough that his own conduct should
be in truth free from reproach—no shad
ow of a shade of suspicion should by pos
sibility aitach to it. He knew that in his
position every action would he scanned
not always possibly in a friendly spirit;
that his goings out and comings in would
be watched, anti that in ev< ry society,
owever little disposed to be censorious,
there would always be found some prone,
where an object afforded, to exaggerate
and even to invent stories against him,
and to put an uncharitable construction 011
the most innocent acts. He, therefore,
from the first, laid down strict, not to say
severe rules for his own guidance. He im
posed a degree of restraint and self-denial
upon his own movements which could not
have been otherwise than irksome had lie
not been sustained by a sense of the ad
vantage which the throne would derive
from it. He denied himself the pleasure—
which to one so fond as he was of person
ally watching and inspecting every im
provement that was in progress, would
have been very great—of walking at will
about town.
“Wherever he went, whether in a car
riage or on horseback, he was accompa
nied by his equerry. He paid no visits in
general society. His visits were only to
the studio of the artist, to museums of art
or science, to institutions for good and be
nevolent purposes. Wherever a visit from
him, or his presence, could tend to ad
vance the real good of the people, there
his horses might be seen waiting; never
at the door of mere faskiou. Scandal it
self could take no liberty with his name.
He loved to ride through all the districts
of London where building and improve
ments were in progress, more especially
when they were such as would conduce
to the health or recreation of the working
idasses and few, if any, knew so well, or
took such interest as he did, in "H that
was being done, at any distance—East,
West, North, or South of the great city—
from Victoria Park to Battersea; from the
Regent’s Park to the Crystal Palace, and
far beyond. ‘He would frequently return,’
the Queen says, ‘to luncheon at a great
pace, and would always come through the
Queen’s dressing room, where she gener
ally was at that time, with that bright,
loving smile with which he ever greeted
her, telling where he had been, what new
buildings he had seen, what studios, Arc.,
he had visited. Riding for mere riding’s
sake he disliked, aud said, “i& ennuyirt
mich so (it bores me so.”)
OXFORD’S ATTEMPT TO ASSASSINATE THE
QUEEN.
On the 10th of June, 1840, Edward Ox
ford made his attempt on the Queen’s life.
Prince Albert’s own account of the affair,
addressed to his grandmother, was as fol
lows :
“Buckingham Palace, Juue 11,1840.
“To the Dowager Duchess of Gotha, etc. ;
“Dear Grandmama : I hasten to give
you an account which might otherwise be
misrepresented to you, which endanger
my life, and that of Victoria, and from
which we escaped under the protection of
the watchful hand of Providence. We
drove out yesterday afternoon, about six
o’clock, to pay Aunt Kent a visit, and to
take a turn round Hyde Park. We drove
in a small phaeton. I sat on the right,
Victoria on the left. We had hardly pro
ceeded a hundred yards from the place
when I noticed on the foot-path, on my
side, a little mean looking man holding
something towards us, and before I could
distinguish what it was a shot was tired,
which almost stunned us both, it was so
loud, and fired hardly six paces from us.—
Victoria had just turned to the left to look
at a horse, and could not therefore under
stand why her ears were ringing, as from
its being so very near she could hardly
distinguish that it proceeded from a shot
having been tired. The horses started,
and the carriage stopped. I seized Victo
ria’s hands, and asked if the fright had
not shaken her, but she laughed at the
thing.
“I then looked again at the man, who
was still standing in the same place, his
arms crossed and a pistol in each hand.—
His attitude was so affected and theatrical
it quite amused me. Suddenly he again
pointed his pistol and fired a second time.
This time Victoria also saw the shot, and
stooped quickly, drawn down by me.—
The ball must have passed just above her
head, to judge from the place where it was
found sticking in an opposite wall. The
many people who stood arouud us and the
man, and were at first petrified with fright
on seeing what had happened, now rushed
upon him. I called to the postilion to go
on. and we arrived safely at Aunt Kent’s.
From thence we took a short drive through
the park, partly to give Victoria a little
air, probably also to show the public that
w r e had not, on account of what had hap
pened, lost all confidence in them.
“To-day lam very tired and knocked
up by the quantity of visitors, the ques
tions and descriptions I have had to give.
You must, therefore, excuse my ending
now, only thanking you for your letter,
which I have just received, but have not
yet been able to read. My chief anxiety
was lest the fright might be injurious to
Victoria in her present state, but she is
quite well, as I am myself.
Your faithful grandson,
Albert.
“The name of the culprit is Edward
Oxford. He is seventeen years old, a
waiter in a low inn—not mad but quiet
and composed.”
The volume closes with the first year of
the Queen’s married life; the next will
probably begin with an account of the
Princess Royal’s christening, in the be
ginning of 1841.

Practical Suggestion.— ln view of
the recent extraordinary bull of His High
ness the Pope, prohibiting all officials in
the Third District from advertising in any
but Radical journals, and as the Mail is not
a Racical paper, we would suggest as a
safe guard to our friends, the officials in
this locality, that, to avoid complications
and misunderstandings, they head their
notices with the line—“ This establish
ment does not advertise in the Montgomery
Mail.” This mode, if adopted, would not
only at once satisfy the General and show
the status of all concerned, but would be
a benefit to the Mail as an advertisement!
The Editor of the Democrat says that be
“keeps straight on.” Straight on indeed!
Why he has twisted and turned and
twisted till he looks like a liajn cork
screw. He’s fit for nothing but to draw
corks with, and, even if used for that the
chances are that he would drink up all the
liquor the moment he screwed the cork
out.—[Prentice.
