TitleLetter from Queen Victoria to Lord John Russell
Date16 June 1848
WriterVictoria, Queen
AddresseeRussell, John, Lord
DescriptionQueen Victoria asks if Lord John Russell directed Lord Palmerston to write such an ill-tempered note to Lisbon as a caution to Sir Hamilton Seymour [Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the Queen of Portugal] not to mix himself up with party intrigues to upset a particular ministry. She thinks this a mockery of Lord John, the Cabinet, the country and herself, which really cannot go on so.
