once returned the salute in the usual frieudly way. Hervey calls this "a m,ble instance of spirit which well deserves to he com- memorated." Campbell considers it "a circnmstance worthy of immortal rcmemhrauce, and one would think too of imitation." l'hilip hmded at Southampton on July 19th, and the manqage tooIt 1,hce at 5Vinchester ou the CSth of the same month. On August lth. the royal pair made their public entry into London, amid the harely repressed disgust of the greater part of the nation. Philip remained in England only until ,qeptember, 1555, and did not revisit the country, save for a short period in 1557; yet he was not without influence upon its policy; and his accession to the throue of ,qpain, upon the ahdicatiou of his father in January, 155;, enahled him to involve Englaud iu disastrous wars with France and Scotlnd. IN'or, iu all prohahility, was he entirely irresponsible for the supercession, on February 10th, 1557, as ord High Admiral, of Howard of Erringham hy Edward, Lord Clinton; although, no doubt, Howard's devotion to the Princess Elizabeth was the ostensihle redsou why the change was made.

The French campaign opened well. 5Villiam Herbert, Earl of Pemhroke, with seven or eight thousand men, and in co-operation with Spanish troops, contributed to the victory of St. Quentin, in Picardy, on July 7th, 1557 l'but there was soon a gre;t misfortune to he set off against this somewhat useless success. On January 1st, 155, Francis, Duke of Guise, suddenly appeared at the :Bridge of Nieullay, close to Calais] and surpqsed the tiefences there. Next day, l)'Andelot de Coligny" seized Fort 16shah on the sea front; and on the 5th, the citadel was carried hy assault. On the 7th, Lord Wentworth, the governor, who had hut five hundred men at his disposal, c:pitulated; and so, after upwards of two hundred years of English occupation, this important strong place was lost, owing to the culpable indifference of the English Govermnent, which, although it was war time, had failed to provide it with necessary Illell and supplies? On Januakv O0th, Earl Grey de Wilton had to surrender Guines; and presently there remained to England not a single foot of her once splendid dominions in France.
