[From the Home Journal.] 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- Macon* Ga., Tuesday, August 20, 1867. 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.
