His Highness Said Pacha, the New Viceroy of Egypt - from an original sketch, 1854. 'His Highness visited this country...about two years ago, and it will be remembered was graciously received by her Majesty the Queen...while in this country he carefully inspected our dockyards and other important public and private works with an intelligent and inquiring interest...His Highness is well versed in astronomy and naval science generally, and takes a great interest in all the mechanical inventions which distinguish the present age, and this country in particular...We feel confident that Egypt, under the administration of his Highness Said Pacha, will attain that prosperity which its natural position and resources so clearly indicate for it, and which historic records show that it has more than once so largely and prominently enjoyed'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854.
