Description
Queen Victoria approves the appointment of Mr. Scarlett [the Hon. Peter Campbell Scarlett] to Greece. She refers again to her grief, mentioning a poem which greatly moved her.

She suggests England should have no future dealings with the French in view of their disgraceful conduct 'everywhere'. She sends Lord Russell a recent photograph of herself taken by Prince Alfred.
