OUR LONDON LETTER.

» (FROM OCR LONDON CORRESPONDENT.) London, April 6. ueath of John Brown. JOHN Bbown, the Queen's personal atten dant, is dead. His name was better known throughout the civilised world than that of many a renowned general or scientist, and he will go down to history as the prime court favourite of Her Majesty's reign. Brown was suffering from a cold when he went, at the Queen's request, to inspect the scene of the attack on Lady Dixie, and staying out too long in the d&mp aggravated it. Erysipelas supervened and ou the 26th he was dead. The Queen is said to be terribly grieved, quite prostrated in fact. • The "Court Circular" con tains an obituary notice of ths dece»sed servant, said to be inspired by htr, Afier describing Brown's rise to the position of personal attendant, the "Writer says : — "During the last eighteen yt ars and a half he served Her Majesty constantly, and never once absented bimsilf from duty for a single day. He has accompanied the Queeu in her daily walks and drives, and on all her journeys and expedition?, as well as personally waiting on her at bauquets, &c* An hone3t, faithful and devoted follower; a trustworthy, discreet acd straightforwaidman,and possessed ot strong tense, he filled a position of great and anxious responsibility, the duties ot which lie performed with such constant and unceasing care as to secure for himself the real friendship of the Queen.'' Lord Lonsdale and " Mie World." The action for libel brought by Lord Lonsdale against Mr JEdward Yatcs, of "The World," comes on al most immediately, and promises to create a very big sensation indeed. The journal istic fraternity arc scandalised at Mr Yates (jiving up the name ot his contribute)] (Lady Southedcn), and if he should have to go to prison ho will obtain little or nc sympathy from the Press. Coming up from Liverpool after the Grand National Steeple' chase, I travelled in the same carriage as Sergeant Ballantine, the famous barrister who was on his way home fro a America. We gossiped pleasantly most o: the jonrney, and amongst other things th< sergeant gave it "s his opinion, that if the ".World" case cornea to Court, Yates wil be convicted, and go to prison for fully : twelvemonth. " And I know at least tw< Judges who will be delighted to sentenci him," he added, grimly, Lord Southeden had no idea till the other day that any connection of his had aught to do with the Lonsdale eselandre He is a very dogma ie, lay-down-the-lav sort of person, and when dining out a Lady Vivian's about a fortnight ago, re marked authoritatively that if a woman of title was indeed the writer o the libel in the "World" about Lore Lonsdale, she ought to be tatred ant feathered. The observation was receivec by the company in amazed silence, for a it happened, Lord fctrathedeu was (be onlj person present who hid . not hsord Ladj Stratheden mentioned as the author of the fatal paragraph. The Queen's Household. It is a sign ot the times that the expense! of the Royal Household are this seasoi being most rigorously looked into and cur tailed. The chief faultfinder, moreover, i; not, as most people would imagine, a "pestilent radical," but the youngest sor of England's most Conservative Duke, Lore Randolph Churchill. During a recent debate, Lord .Randolph was as vigorous as the sternest economist of the Manchester school in his attacks on the Palace items, and cer< tainly, without explanation, they do seen preposterous. • Surely the nation oaght not to supply the royal family with coals and greengrocery as extras. "We shall soon,': says the '' Referee," commenting on the matter, " Have a Royal Highness ordering a bottle c>f soda water at the club, and telling the waiter to put it down to the nation." This may sound a mean way of looking at the question, but really, it does not seem right tor au immensely wealthy Prince like- the Duke of Edinburgh to "sponge" on the country, even for his coals, More (ibout John Brown. The society papers" paWi'su obituary no tices of the late John Jirowo which are ihe reverse of flattering. The following ffoni "Truth" is said to havo created a terrible stir at Wimisor, and caused Her Majesty to vow all forts of rash tixiugs. The tiste ineata are cettainly very daring. Mr Laboucberc says :—"lt had for some time been predicted by persons .who knew John Brown that h's first serious illness would kill him. The fact is, he died ot his prosperity, Jf'or the first forty years of his life he existed principally in the open air, and took an enormous amount of exercise, while his manner of living was not luxurious. Of late, however, he has taken little or no exercise, and every whim had been indulged, so that he was not in a condition to resist the malady with which he was attacked. If he had remained a gillie or a keeper, be would probably have lived to be a very old man ; but the ener vating life which be had led for several years was about aa suitable to him as wonld be the sand of Arabia to a reindeer, or the snow of Lapland to a camel. A. brougham; a dog-cart, and a riding horse were always at John Brown's disposal. He had his own suite of rooms at Windsor, Csborne, and Balmoral, a separate table was kept for him, and be was waited on by obsequious servants appointed to his service, nc had the ex clusive right of shotiting in the extensive, well-stocked covers on the Oaborne Estate; ho could shoot at Windsor and Balmoral when di.«p sed thus to amuse himself, and the salmon-fishing on the Queen's Water on thy Dei- was alto under his dominion. In the Queen's household John Brown's word was law, and from Sir John Goweil down to the housemaids, it was the primary object of every official or tervant to stand welt with him, or, at least, to keep dear Of offending Mm. For anyone that fell under bis displeasure was sure to come to grief; if a servant, his promotion was stopped ; and if an official he was worried and harried, and everything that he did was wrong. Except by his own friends and his parasites, John Brown was exceedingly disliked; indeed, one might use a stronger word. This would be the case with almost any magnified menial, but John Brown did not conciliate. The fortiter in re was the only method with which he was familiar; and he was both truculent and tyrannical. The manner in which he si.oke to the "ladles and gentlemen" of the Court was frequently most offensive; but it was hopeless for any one to resent his freedom.. Indeed, as Major Pcndcnnis, from living so much, with Lukes, came at last to feel like one, so " J. 8." had quite the air and sentiments of a Royal personage of, say, a hundred years ago. In his love for strong language, he greatly resembled the late revered George 11. One of hia " fads" was a violent hatred of the Press. John Brown was at various times employed by the Queen to conduct inquiries of a confidential nature, and his knowledge of the private affairs of a number of distinguished personages might at some future period have proved ex ceedingly inconvenient. He was treated with the ntmo3t consideration by all the members of the Royal family, wiih the ex ception of the Duke of Edinburgh, who made htm no presents, and. who always appeared to regard him with infinite dis dain-a feeling which probably arose from hia Koyal Highness having been ordered to apologise to him for having shot in a deer forest specially reserved for his use. The Crown Princess of Prussia's resentment at the prominent position occupied by Brown, led to a series of differences between H.R.H.' and the Queen, Lord Bsaconsfield al ways shook hands with this faithful and powerful retainer, and addressed him as " my good friend," invariably trealing him with oriental courtesy. The : detailed notices of John Brown which have appeared in the daily papers are simply for the most part a farrago of nonsense. He"was a faith ful servant, and a discreet, sagacious man, but. nevertheless, be was exalted out of his oiivn proper place in a very preposterous way. : Of all men that ever lived the Prince Consoit I would least have approved of this sort of j thing, as bis idea of the relation between master and servant was so intensely Ger man Court-like, that "unless owing t* special circumstance?," lie rarely spoke to any domestic, except through an equerry or other attendant, the only exception to this rule being his German valet, who is now in the Queen's service." ■ " ■

I vend no slaughtor or victimising lines, but every line advertised will be found having Its ; true oonnterpart In the Tea tendoreu to par-' ohaaer-whether to ohlld. adult, or by letter.'.

My aim for the yeara I have buen before the Auckland public has been to publish what Good Tea con gists cf, so tnat the oonsumer might be my j urtge. Those who would that lgnoranoe shonld prevail ooneidor a man foollßh for h's pains, but I have been more than compensated by the golden opimins Df hundreds of people for hundreds of miles round Auottlftnd, ana* as in timated, many of my customers 1 have not soon.

I suspeot that Medals fo • Packet Teoa, it put to tho teat through the Cvlunlos, wonld turn out much like the London Bakers whon Dr. Letheby waa about to repoi:t on bread befote a Committee ot the House ot Commons. Many wanted their partloultr bread reported on, but the wily doctor Bald. "Oh, yes, pro vided you pay £60 to any charitable institution I name if at any fati.ro tlma I find you soiling an inferior artlole." Judge his astonishment whon only two In all luandon would abide by the teat. Mow, I distinctly affirm that If any committee ef any loosl exhibition In New Zea land, or elsewhere, have given Gold Mcdaln for PaoketTeas, without distinctly conneotlng tbe grower therewith, they wore fairly cauiht nap ping.
