. Denkmal des königlichen Fortschritts in Schottland . SO wie die Bewohner von Edinburo-h zu ihren Monarchen in der alten Zeit zu doehren waren, andrühringly, wie jene verschiedenen königlichen Besuche besetzt während der Perioden, als sie stattfanden, ihre Erinnerung ist lang in jenen dunklen und staubigen Aussparungen begraben worden, zu denen solche alten Aufzeichnungen normalerweise verurteilt sind, Und werden erst jetzt von der suchenden Hand des Antiquars fortgezogen. Ach! Die von Königin Victoria, die uns in der Neuzeit so sehr gegenwärtig ist und unsere Herzen mit Freude erfüllt, und unsere Stimmen mit Loyalitätsgeschrei, ist bereits ebenso eine Frage der Geschichte und ebenso viel athi

Alas! that of Queen Victoria, so very recentlypresent to us, filling our hearts with joy, and our voices with shoutsof loyalty, is already as much matter of history, and as much athing past as they are. But it has a record of good feeling laid upalong with it, that will keep it for ever embalmed in the best affec-tions of Scottish hearts to the very latest generation.
