Abstract
THERE has been one feeling in the minds of the inhabitants of Britain, and of Greater Britain, during the last week, which has thrown all others into the shade—a feeling of intense patriotism and loyalty to the Queen, mixed with a deep reverence for her personal qualities. It is this feeling which has brought representatives to our shores from every part of the greatest empire which so far the world has known; which has organised the stupendous ceremonial witnessed on Tuesday in the metropolis, a celebration to be worthily crowned on Saturday by the review of the first line of the armed force of the nation.
