§ "VICTORIA, R.—I have received, with lively satisfaction, your dutiful and affectionate Address.
§ "The sorrow which you express at the death of the late King, and the testimony which you bear to his virtues, entirely accord with my own feelings.
§ "I return you my thanks for the expression of your loyal attachment to my person; and I fervently join in your prayer to Almighty God, that he may strengthen and direct my councils."
