The Queen is said by a contemporary to have just made a new will, by which Princess Sophia of Prussia is to bonoflt largely. This is quite untruo, for Her Majesty's will (which I was "Bottled" by n moat omiuent counsel) was mticlo in 188-1, a few months nltor tho death of tho Duko of Albany, and it is tho highest dogreo improbable that sho will ever cancel it in order to uiado anothor. It is ho aooret that tho Duko of Connaught and Princess Beatrice are to be the Queen's principal heirs, but Her Majesty's private fortune is so immense that it will afford almost aniplo provision for all tho younger members of hor family, Princess Sophia certainly needs no assistance from her grandmother, as sLe has n vary handsome . incouio from tho Prussian Stale Fund,'andhershare .of tho Emperor Frederick's personal property will ultimately amount to at least 1,120,000, to say nothing of her expectations from .the Empress Augusta, with whom she is a favorite, I believe that the Queen has lately added a codicil to her will, which relates exclusively to, the Jubilee gifts, the value of which is very much greater than most people suppose, They have now boon collected at Windsor, and there aro nearly eleven hundred of them altogether.
