A Long Felt Want.

An American once went to Windsor castle and insisted upon seeing Queen Victoria. He was told that ‘t was quite impossible, as an audience with the queen could be had only by appointment. Still he persisted, and then they told him flat-footed that before seeing the queen he must ‘ state the object of his visit. He said he wanted to shew her a new piece of furniture, a throne bed —a perfect throne by day and a perfect bed by night.
