urs to soothe the distress she felt as
having been the unintentional cause of the loss. Information was
immediately given at the Police-office, but none of the property was
ever heard of, excepting the trunk, which was found empty in a field
by the road side.

In Sweden the name of Saumarez will be for ever spoken of with
gratitude and respect, and all strangers who visit that country are
sure in their memoirs to mention the services which he had rendered.
In Mr. Lloyd's book we find:

To the good understanding which existed between Count Rosen and
Sir James Saumarez, our admiral on that station, may be
ascribed the flourishing trade which was afterwards carried on
during a period of nominal war, and the re-establishment of
peace between the countries which soon after followed. Of Sir
James Saumarez the inhabitants still speak in the highest terms
of respect and regard, for his mildness and moderation in
command, and for the attention he invariably paid to their
numerous applications and wants.

A tourist in Sweden writes as follows:

Stockholm, 22nd Jan. 1832.

To-day I shall again have the honour of dining with Count
Wetterstedt. Many, many inquiries were made after the health
and happiness of the gallant and amiable Lord de Saumarez,
whose name is beloved and respected throughout the whole
kingdom. I landed at Christiania and travelled by land within
fifty miles of Stockholm, and even the peasantry are familiar
with my Patron's excellent name and character, the great friend
of Sweden.

In October 1834, Lord de Saumarez received the last mark of Royal
favour from the King of Sweden, who sent him a splendid full-length
portrait of himself, which was forwarded with the following letter
from the late highly respected Count Wetterstedt, then Minister for
Foreign Affairs at Stockholm:

Stockholm, le 7 d'Octobre 1834.

MILORD,

Depuis longtems le Roi mon auguste Souverain vous avait
destine, Milord, son portrait en pied comme un temoignage de
son estime des services signales que vous avez rendus a la
Suede dans les annees 1810-12.

Divers incidens en avaient retarde l'expedition, d'autant plus
regrettables au Roi, que sa Majeste avait appris l'interet que
vous aviez attache a ce souvenir de sa part. L'occasion
opportune qui se presente maintenant de pouvoir embarquer ce
