There was English blood in the veins of Eugenie, and English traits adorned her character. It is not too much to say that she was universally admired in the court of St. James. The London journals of that day were full of expressions of admiration. It was said that Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle were never honored with the presence of a guest more truly queenly. In purity of character, in sincerity of Christian faith, Eugenic and Victoria must have found mutual sympathy, though one was a communicant of the Church of England, and the other of the Church of Rome. Eugenie loved England. Her grandfather was an Englishman. Many of her dearest relatives were English; much of her education was English.

ith singular excellence. In this piece, and in Shakspearean plays, Mr. and Mrs. Kean fulfilled a round of engagements in the principal cities of the Republic, with equal fame and profit. In the summer of 1847 they returned to England. Thenceforward, as before, Ellen Tree shared the labors and the fortunes of her husband. She had no separate career, nor did she desire it. In 1848 Mr. Kean was appointed by the Queen of England to be conductor of the Christmas theatrical performances at Windsor Castle, instituted by that sovereign and her lamented consort, the late Prince Albert, with the double design of benefiting the drama and relieving the court of the care and ceremony incident to state visits to the public theatres.
