The latter view rest on the well known fact that the Q ieen has been receiving ever since the death of l'rince Albert the s hole of the income calculated at her accession to support the i-is'iises of tlie court in the u-ual degree of splendor; that her Majesty has, however, lived during this icriod for the mot part in retirement, and that the cost of draw ing-room levees and other royal pageantries ha, in fact, fallen upon the l'rince and Princess of Wales, whose incomes have been unequal to such a biydt-n. The existing debts, or a considerable part of them, have, according to thf theory, lieen incurred in the discharge of these duties, and hence it i urged that the Queen, who has had and kept the money given her by the State for such puritoes, ought to pay theui.
