You don't say that _you_ sympathise with me in my present heavy trial,[66] the heaviest I have ever had to endure, and which will be a sad heartbreaking to me--but I know you do feel for me.

I am quiet and prepared, but still I fell very _sad_, and God knows! very wretched at times, for myself and my country, that _such_ a change must take place.

But God in His mercy will support and guide me through all.

Yet I feel that my constant headaches are caused by annoyance and vexation! Adieu, dearest Uncle! God bless you! Ever your devoted Niece, VICTORIA R.

One of the postillions was (not dangerously) hurt.] [Footnote 66: _I.e._, Lord Melbourne being succeeded by Sir Robert Peel as Prime Minister.] [Pageheading: DEBATE ON THE ADDRESS] _Viscount Melbourne to Queen Victoria._ SOUTH STREET, _24th August 1841._ Lord Melbourne presents his humble duty to your Majesty.
