Not long after this, Lord Grey, and also the Archbishop of Canterbury, acquainted Mamma that the country, having been accustomed to hear me called Victoria, had become used to it, _enfin_, _liked it_, and therefore, to my great delight, the idea of a change was given up.[18] I was sure the death of old Charles X.would strike you....
I thank you much for the _Constitution de la Belgique_.

Those attacks on you are infamous, but must not be minded; they are the language of a _few jealous_, _envious_ people.

_En revanche_, I enclose a paragraph from a speech of O'Connell's[19] I think worth your reading.
Pray, dearest Uncle, say everything most kind to my beloved and dearest Aunt, and thank her in my name for her kind letter, which I shall answer on Friday.

I am happy she and the dear little man are well.
Believe me, always, your most devoted and affectionately attached Niece, VICTORIA.
[Footnote 15: Prince Ferdinand was appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Portuguese army on the advice of the Duc de Terceira, then Prime Minister.

The appointment was highly unpopular; riots broke out, the army mutinied, and rose against the authorities, with the result that the Queen of Portugal was compelled to accept the Radical Constitution of 1820, in the place of Dom Pedro's constitutional Charter of 1826.
