Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Leaves From the Diary of Henry Greville No danger was apprehended at first. She was joined by Canning on the 10th, from which day she got gradually worse (making, however, a slight rally of short duration), and sank rapidly at two in the morning of the 18th. Canning seems not to have been entirely prepared for the 1)low, as on learning that a was over he fainted. On the 19th she was buried in the Garden of Barrackpore, a place she was fond of, and under a banana tree she had often sketched. Yesterday all England was in real mourning. Prince Albert was consigned to the tomb. I am told that London never displayed so much outward sign of grief. Every shop was shut. Bells tolled the whole day. Minute guns were firing; and nearly everyone wore some sort of mourning. The ´Times´ is full of minute details of the ceremony, and puts forth an admirable article on the subject. Nothing can have been more sad or more solemn than the ceremony, which is described in all its detail most graphically. There is no decided news from America, but what we have heard and know is more in favour of peace than war. The appalling state of the finances of the Federal Government which has been disclosed to Congress, tends that way; as also a very strong despatch from the French Government to the Federal Government denouncing the Trent Affair as an intolerable outrage, and as entirely at variance with the ordinary rules of International law, and advising them to accede to the just demands of the British Government.
