Dublin, 1701; wrote hisDiscourse on the Dissensions in Athens and Romewith reference to the impeachment of the whig lords, 1701; in his visit to London, 1705 and 1707, became acquainted with Addison, Steele, Congreve, and Halifax; entrusted (1707) with a mission to obtain the grant of Queen Anne's bounty for Ireland: wrote some pamphlets on religious or church subjects; published Letter on the Sacramental Test 1708, an attack on the Irish presbyterians, which, though anonymous, injured him with the whigs- in disgust at the whig alliance with dissent, ultimately went over to the tories on his next visit to England 1710attacked the whig ministers in pamphlets, in the Kxaminer November 1710 to June 1711, and wrote the Conduct of the Allies 1711; became dean of St. Patrick's, 1713; had already commenced theJournal to Stella had become intimate with the tory ministers, and had used hi* influence in helping young and impoverished authors, Including Tope and Steele: returned to England, 713, to reconcile Bolingbroke and Harley, but in vain wrote more pamphlets, notablyThe Public Spirit of the V higi considered 1714, in reply to Steele's Crisis but at length gave up all for lost and retired to the country; left for Ireland, 1715, after the fall of the ministry and the death of Queen Anne; his marriage to Stella, un incident which still remains unproven, and also his final rupture with Vanessa (Miss Yanhomrigh. whose acquaintance he had made in London), suppo-ed to have taken place about this time; his rupture with Vanessa the cause of her death, before which she entrusted to her executors his poemCadenus and Vanessa which relates the story of their love iffair; though always contemptuous of the Irish, was led, by his personal antipathies to the whigs, to acquire a sense of their unfair dealings with belaud; successfully prevented the introduction of Wood's Halfpence into Ireland by his famous Drapier Letters 1724; came to England, 17 26, visited Pope and Gay, and dined with Walpole, for whose behoof he afterwards wrote a letter complaining of the treatment of Ireland, which had, however, no effect on the minister; broke with Walpole in consequence; was introduced to Queen Caroline, but gained nothing by it; published -Gulliver's Travels 1726; made his last visit to England, 1727, when the death of George I created fora moment hopes of dislodging Walpole; wrote some of his most famous tracts and some of his most characteristic poems during these last years in Ireland; kept up his correspondence with Bolingbroke, Pope, Gay, and Arbuthuot, and though remaining aloof from Dublin society, maintained good relations with Lord Carteret, the lord-lieutenant; attracted to himself a small circle of friends, and was adored by the people; set up a monument to Schomberg hi the cathedral at his own expense, spent a third of his income on charities, and saved up another third to found a charitable institution at his death, St. Patrick's Hospital (opened, 1757); symptoms of the illness from which he appears to have suffered all his life very marked, c. 1738; buried by the side of Stella, in St. Patrick's, Dublin, his own famous inscription, ubi steva indignatio ulterius cor lacerare nequit being inscribed on his tomb. Dr. Johnson, Macaulay, and Thackeray, among many other writers, were alienated by his ferocity, which was, however, the result of noble qualities soured by hard experience. His indignation at oppression and unfairness was genuine. His political writings are founded on common sense pure and simple, and he had no party bias. His works, with the exception of the letter upon the correction of the language, 1712, were all anonymous, and for only one, Gulliver's Travels did he receive any payment (200J.). A large number of publications appear to have been attributed to him by different editors without sufficient authority.

She was baptised, 24 June, Alcxandrina Victoria, the Brat name being after Alexander I, cxar of vho was one of her sponsors. She lived from 1820 with the DucheM of Kent at Kensington Palace. Her early education wa undertaken by Fraulein Louise Lehzen (create! Hanoverian baroness, 1827), and, from 18X7, by the Rev. George Davys, ami many tutors and mistrewe* who worked under hi* supervision. Music and art were favourite studies In 1830 the Duchess of Northumberland was appointed her governess. From 1832 onwards the Duchess of Kent nnd the prince** made extended tour* in England. She was confirmed at Chupd Koyal, St. James's, 1835, celebrated her coming of age, 4 May 1837. and on 20 June 1837 succeeded to the throne, on the death of her uncle, William IV. The queen met her first privy council on the day of the king's death, and she was formally proclaimed on the following day. On her accession the union U'twmi England and Hanover, which had existed since 1714, was dissolved She was instructed in the d-ities of he station by Lord Melbourne, the prime minister and leader of the whig party, who also undertook t lie duties of private secretary for all public business. Melbourne thus became the queen's constant companion. In private matters the Baroness Lehzen continued to fill till IKU the secretarial office for private business, which she had filled before the queen's accession. Baron Stockmar, v ho had been sent by King Leopold to direct the princess's political education as soon a* she reached her majority, was also in attendance on her. On 13 July she took up her official residence in Buckingham Palace. On 30 Nov. she opened her first parliament, reading her own speech, as was her custom until her widowhood, whenever she:itended in person. Parliament granted her an annuity of 385,UUO.,-le had in addition the revenues of the duchies of Lancaster and Cornwall (about 27,500. annually): the duchy of Cornwall, which passed to the Prince of Wale* at hi* birth in 1841, ultimately produced more than 66,OUU., while the yearly Income from the duchy of Lancaster rose to more than 6U,OUU. In 1839 the queen discliarged the debt* of her father, tlie late Duke of Kent The coronation took place on 2K June, 1838. In the early monthx of 1830 the queen was subjected to much unfavourable comment owing to her passive attitude towards Lady Flora Hastings, daughter of the Marquis of Hastings, who was lady-in-vaiting to the Duchess of Kent at Buckingham Palace, and was improperly suspected by fomc of the queen's attendant* of immoral conduct. In the name year, 183.Melbourne's -.vl.iif ministry resigned and the queen commissioned Sir Robert Peel, the leader of the conserrative opposition in the lower house, to form a government. Peel, in consultation with his friends, decided that the ladies holding the higher posts in the queen's household must be displaced if the conservative ministers were to receive adequate support from the crown. The queen, misunderetanding Peel's intentions, refused to accept hi* proposals. He accordingly declined to proceed to the formation of a eovcniment, and the whig* returned to office. In Octot)er 1839 the queen's first cousins, Prince Albert of SaxeCobu"? Gotha, and his elder brother Ernest, who had already stayed at Kensington in IBM, rUlted Windsor, u offered Prince Albert marriage. rr..- -;.:,.;-;, -....:.,, the quern guv - -,....-:.-,.-.....;,..

Melbourne and Peal WM called opon to form a ministry. On 9 Nor. 1841, the qoeen's second child, Albert Edward! prince of Wales (now Edward VII). was born. In June 1845 the queen made her first railway journey, travelling to Paddlngton. On 80 May and S July Stongh 1 and t third attempts on her life were made by Johu Francis and John William Bean. In the autumn of this year the quern paid her first visit to Scotland, )oarneying by MM from Voohv ih to Granton. Prince* Alto was born on 25 April 184S.

Nfcfl h 1 WM I Krv:. i.....,.-. BM Henry VIII appeared on the Field of the Cloth of Gold at the invitation of Francis I in 1520. Prince Alfred was born 6 Aug. 1844. Louis-Philippe returned the queen's visit in October 1844, this being the first time that a French monarch voluntarily landed on English there*, The queen opened the new Royal Exchange, London, 28 Oct. 1844. In the autumn of 1845 she visited Germany for the first time, and stayed at Bosenau, Prince Albert's birthplace. In 1845 the state of agricultural distras* which prevailed throughout the United Kingdom forced Peel to advocate the repeal of the corn laws, a.-top which be and his party were pledged to oppose. The queen firmly supported him, but Peel deemed it just that the opposite party, which bad lately championed the reform, should carry it out. He queen sent for Lord John unable to face difficulties chiefly arising from the distrust in which Palmerston was held by the queen and many members of bis own party. Peel resumed power, and on 26 June 1846 the corn-law bill passed its third rending in the Lords, but on the same night the government was defeated on the second reading of a coercion bill for Ireland, and Peel's resignation followed. Lord John Russell formed a new ministry, and the queen, with much misgirimr, agreed to Palmenton's return to the foreign office. In the meantime the Princess Helena was bora, 25 May 1846. In 1844 the queen bad purchased the estate of Osbornr. in the Isle of Wight; the foundations of her palace there were laid in 1845, and the whole was completed, 1851. In 1848 the queen leased Balmoral House, and purchased it in 1862, when Balmoral Oastle was begun: it was finished In 1854. Here a part of every spring and autumn was spent during the rest of the queen's life. In June 1849 the queen made her first vfeit to Ireland, going by sea from Cowcs to the Cove of Cork, on which she bestowed the name of QuceiiKtown. Subsequently she stayed four days in Dublin. Her third sou, Arthur, waa born on 1 May 1850. Meanwhile the breach between the foreign minister, Palmertton, and the crown had been growing wider, and in 1850 the queen was compelled to state definitely tar demand* in regard to his future conduct. Kite required, tir.-tly. tliat he hhouU inform her distinctly of hi* pro. posed course of action in any given ease, and, secondly. that be should not arbitrarily modify or alter any measure which had once received her sanction.

The conservative leader, Lord Stanley, afterwards Lord Derby, declined to form a In this year the queen threw herself with great uplrit into the menu connected with the Great Exhibition. The removal of Palmerston from toe ministry followed at the end of this year, and WM a source of relief to the queen. On I Deo.

Palmerston, however, expressed his approbation to the French ain!a~sador Walewski, without communicating j either with the queen or with his colleagues. lrd John. who proposed that for the present Knirland should rxu-nd to Napoleon the coldest neutrality, summarily demanded Palmerston's resignation. The seals of the foreign office were accordingly transferred to the queen's friend. Lord Granville. Early in 1862 a militia bill occasioned tindefeat and consequent resignation of the ministry. Lord Derby formed a conservative government, with Disraeli as chancellor of the exchequer and leader of the House of Commons. A general election in July left the conservatives In the minority. The Duke of Wellington died on 14 Sept. In December Disraeli's budget was rejected by a small majority, and Lord Derby resigned. A coalition ministry of conservatives and liberals was formal by the queen's wish by Lord Aberdeen, the foreign and home offices being taken respectively by Clarendon and Palmers ton. An alliance between England mid France became inevitable kite in 1853, owing to the position of affairs in eastern Europe. In the autumn Russia pushed her claims to protect the Greek Christians of the Turkish empire with such violence as to extort from Turkey a declaration of war. British popular opinion demanded the immediate intervention of England in behalf of Turkey. Napoleon offered to join his army with that of England, and the king of Sardinia promised to follow his example. But other foreign sovereigns endeavoured privately to influence the queen in favour of peace. Her attitude to all her continental correspondents was irreproachable, but the rumour spread that she and her husband were employing their foreign intimacies against the country's interest: and as the winter of 1853-4 progressed without any signs of decisive action on the part of the English government, popular indignation burst in its fullest fury on the head of Prince Albert. The tide of abuse was temporarily checked when, 27 Feb. 1854, the queen announced in the House of Lords the breakdown of negotiations with Russia. War was formally declared next day, and France and Sardinia renewed their promises of alliance. The queen evinced great personal interest in the progress of the Crimean war, and initiated or supported all manner of voluntary measures for the comfort of the troops. In January 1855 the government was defeated on a hostile motion for inquiry into the management of the war, and the queen reluctantly bade Palmerston form an administration; subsequently, however, she gave him her full confidence, and when the treaty of peace was signed, 30 March 1856, she acknowledged that the successful issue of the war was mainly due to him. In April 1855 the Emperor Napoleon visited the queen at Windsor, and was dissuaded from his intention of taking command In person of the French troops in the Crimea. In May the queen distributed with her own hands war medals to the returned soldiers, a function that had not previously been performed by sovereigns. In August the queen and Prince Albert visited the emperor at Paris; this was the first occasion on which an English sovereign had entered the French capital since the infant Henry VI went to be crowned in 1422. In June 1856 the queen instituted the Victoria Cross for acts of conspicuous valour in war, and herself decorated the first recipients on 26 June 1857. On 26 June 1857 the queen conferred on Prince Albert the title of prince consort. During this year (1867) the progress of the Indian mutiny caused the queen acute distress. In February Palmerston resigned on the defeat of a bill making conspiracy to murder, hitherto a misdemeanor, a felony; this bad been introduced in consequence of a plot hatched in England to destroy the emperor and empress of the French by an explosive bomb which was thrown in the Opera House in i-iris. Lord Derby formal a new ministry. In August the queen visited Napoleon at Cherbourg, and afterwards made an extended tour in Germany. On 25 Jan. 1868 her eldest daughter, the princess royal, married Prince Frederick, afterwards Crown Prince of Prussia. While the Indian mutiny was in course of suppression the East India Company was abolished, ite territories and powers transferred to the crown, and the administration placed in the bands of the secretary of state, who was assisted by a council of fifteen. The scheme for the actual reorganisaf the Indian government, in which the queen was deeply interested, received the royal assent, 2 Aug. 18W. The queen's tranquillity of mind was at this time greatly disturbed by the part Napoleon was playing in European polities. He had threatened to join the king of Sardinia in an endeavour to expel Austria from Lombardy and Venetia. The prospect of war between France and A ust ria gave the queen peculiar anxiety owing to Austria's proximity to Prussia, with vlio-e reigning lions her daughter had recently become allied by marriage. Austria took the initiative by declaring war on Sardinia, and Napoleon immediately entered the field in behalf of Sardinia. The queen was successful in dissuading Prussia from interference. The prompt triumph of French arms brought hostilities to a close, but the queen's fears of tinsequel were increased by a change of ministry, whirl* brought Palmerston into power as premier, and Russell as foreign secretary. Palmerston and Russell agreed in a resolve to serve the interests of Italy at fche expense of Austria. The queen, however, contrived to persuade her ministers to adopt a policy of strict neutrality. In May 1859 a volunteer force was called into existence, und in July 1860 the queen personally inaugurated the National Ride Association as a complement to the volunteer movement; ii the same year she instituted the queen's prize (250Z.), which was thenceforth awarded annually. In September 1860 the queen and prince consort made a second journey to Coburg to visit Stockmar. who had lived there in retirement since 1857. On 4 Feb. 18(51 the queen opened parliament in person; this was the last occasion in which she delivered with her own voice the speech from the throne. On 16 March the queen's mother dial at Frogtnore after a brief illness. In the later mouths of this year the health of the prince consort gradually failed. Early in December he persuaded the British ministers to adopt a conciliatory attitude towards the United States respecting the Trent affair, and on 14 Dec. he died. The sense of desolation which the queen experienced on her husband's death never Vholly left her. She long remained in retirement, and never ceased to wear mourning for him. In the two years that followed her bereavement she lived in complete seclusion, but engaged assiduously in official work. General the Hon. Charles Grey, a younger son of the second Earl Grey, who had been since 1846 private secretary to the prince consort, was appointed to the same post in the queen's service, and continued in this capacity until his death in 1870. His place, was then taken by General Sir Henry Ponsonby, who died in 1895, and was succeeded by Colonel Sir Arthur Bigge, who survived the queen. On 1 July 1862 the queen attended, in deep mourning, the marriage of Princess Alice to Prince Louis of Hesse. At the close of this year it was proposed to confer the crown of Greece upon her second son. Prince Alfred. The offer caused her much perplexity. The crown was finally given to George, son of Prince Christian of Schleswig-Holstein-SonderburgGlucksburg (who became king of Denmark on 15 Nov. 1863); he was brother of the affianced bride of the Prince of Wales. The marriage of the Prince of Wales took place, 10 March 1863. The queen visited Germany in the autumn, and while at Coburg had an interview with the Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria, who was returning from Frankfurt, where a conference of German sovereigns had been held to consider a form of confederation of the German states, which seemed likely to exclude Prussia. The queen endeavoured to influence the emperor of Austria in behalf of Prussia. Towards the close of 1863. the queen gave close attention to the struggle brought about by the conflicting claims of Germany and Denmark to the duchies of Schleswig-Holstein. Her 93'mpathies were with Germany, while those of her ministers and people were with the Dane-!. J U February 1864 hostilities broke out between Austria and Prussia on the one hand and Denmark on the other. The Danes wcrr promptly defeated. The queen succeeded in enforcing oi her government a policy of strict neutrality. In June the German allies occupied the disputed duchies. Meanwhile a feeling had been growing throughout the country that the queen's prolonged.seclusion was contrary to the nation's interest. She replied guardedly tothe popular outcry in a letter to The Times newspaper (1864), stating her desire to meet the wishes of her subjects so far as her health, strength, and spirits might allow. The queen was acutely distressed at the deaths of Palmerston on 18 Oct. 1865, and of King Leopold oi 10 Dec. Palmorston's place as prime minister was: by Lord John Russell.

On 6 May Disraeli announced in parliament that the queen had decided, on her own responsibility, to reject bis resignation, and to dissolve parliament as soon as the arrangement* for appeal to tbe electors, newly enfranchised under the reform bill, v, r. complete. Disraeli's action in giving the queen tlie choice of two alternatives excited hostile comment. In August she paid lier first visit to Switzerland, travelling incognito under the name of the Countess of Kent. In a general election at the close of this year Disraeli's government wa* defeated. In December Gladstone became prime minister. The first measure wbi-b be introduced wu tbe bill for the disestablishment of tbe Irish church, and despite her disapproval of it the queen recogni.-ed that its adoption was inevitable. Accordingly ehe exerted, through Archbishop Tait, her influence against the opposition of tbe House of Lords, and the bill was passed (June 1869). hi 187U the queen watched with close attention the struggle between France and Germany, and when, in .;ioleon declared war, she regarded his action as wholly unjustified.

Princess Beatrice. lu June the government was defeatel on its budget proposals, and Gladstone resigned. Lord Salisbury at once took office as prime minuter, but the fSMMl elwtiou which followed the dissolution iu November loft the conservatives in a minority, and in January 1S86 Salisbury's government was outvoted. Five day* previously the queen had opened parliament in person, as it proved, for the last time. Gladstone resumed power, and at once committed his party to the policy of home rule for Ireland. The queen disliked the proposal, and Gladstone's Home Rule Bill wa* decisively rejected by the House of Commons (7 June). At Gladstone's instance parliament was dissolved; be resigned without meeting the new parliament, where his party was small, and Lord Salisbury for the second time formed a government. In this year (1886) the queen manifested great interest in the Colonial and India exhibition at South Kensington organised by the Prince of Wales (afterwards King Edward VII). On 21 June 1887 and the following days she took part in the public ceremonies in celebration of her jubilee, and on 6 July abe laid the foundation-stone of the Imperial Institute, which wan erected by public subscription to commemorate the fifty years of her reign. In March 1888 the queen for the first time visited Florence, anil afterwards proceeded to Charlottenburg, the palace of the dying Emperor Frederick. In March 1889 she stayed at Biarritz, and thence visited the queenregent of Spain at San Sebastian. This was the first occasion on which an English sovereign had visited that country, though Charles I and Charles II went thither as princes. In July the approaching majority of the Prince of Wales's eldest son and the approaching marriage of his eldest daughter compelled the queen to appeal to parliament on the question of suitable provision for the third generation of her family. Precedent justified public provision for all children of the sovereign's sons, and the queen agreed to forego any demand in behalf of her daughterschildren. The matter was settled, with Gladstone's assistance, by a grant to the Prince of Wale3 of 36.000J. annually for his children's support. Gladstone's intervention was always remembered by the queen with gratitude. In August 1889 she welcomed her grandson, the German emperor, William 1 1, on his first visit to England since his accession to the throne. The emperor caused the queen to be gazetted honorary colonel of his first regiment of horse guard-, on which he bestowed the title of Queen of Englandt- Own. In 1802 a general election returned a majority of home rulers, and Gladstone filled the post of prime minister for the fourth time. In September 1893 bis Home llule Bill, which had passed through the House of Commons, was rejected by the House of Lords. In March 1894 the queen accepted Gladstone's resignation and chose Lord Kosebery to succeed him. In this year the government made further changes in the war office, which strictly limited to five years the tenure of the post of Commander-in-chief, and thus finally disposed of the queen's cherished fiction that the head of the army was her permanent personal deputy. The ministry fell in Jane, and Lord Salisbury resumed office as premier and foreign secretary, with Mr. Chamberlain as colonial secretary. In the spring of 1895 the queen was at Cannes, in 189C and 1897 at Nice, and in 1898 and 1899 at Cimiez. On 22 June 1897 she took part in a state procession through London to celebrate her diamond Jubilee the completion of the sixtieth year of her rule. During the closing years of her reign the queen gave close attention to the numerous expeditious in which her armies were engaged, and she was gratified when the rebellion in the Soudan was finally crashed at the battle of Orndurman, 2 Sept. 1898. On the outbreak of the Boer war in 1899, when she was convinced that the peace which she was always anxious to preserve could not be maintained, she exerted her utmost energy to urge her ministers to conduct hostilities with all possible promptitude and effect. To encourage her soldiers he went, in the spring of 1900, for tlie fourth time to Ireland, whence the armies in the field had been largely recruited. She held her last drawing-room in Buckingbam Palace, 4 May. She gave her assent to the Australian commonwealth bill, 27 Aug. In October a general election was deemed necessary by the government, and on the return of a conservative majority Lord Salisbury remained prime minister, but resigned the foreign secreteiysuip to Lord Lanado-.vne, formerly iaiaiter of war. Throughout the summer the queen experienced acute distress at the accounts of suffering which reached her from South Africa, and her personal sympathy with her troop* Wai intensifiedby the death of her grandson, Prince Christian Victor of Schlcswi-Holstoin, from enter, c fever contracted in active service. In the autumu of 1900 the queen showed signs of general physical decay, and on 22 Jan. 1901 she died. Her body was conveyed with military honours from Osborue through London to Windsor, and was placed (4 Feb.) in the mausoleum at Frogmore, which had been completed in 1868, and already contained the remains of her husband. On the day following her death her eldest son was proclaimed King Edward VII. Among the most notable portraits of the queen are paintings or drawings by Sir William Beechey, R.A., 1821; Sir George Hayter, 1833 and 1838; Sir David Wilkie, 1839; Sir Edwin Landseer, 1839 and 1866; F.
