lowing telegram, dated Prague, August 18 :

here to-day with great pomp. The archbishop

imperial authorities were present, but the
Prussian Generals Vogel. Von Falkenstein,
Herwirth, Von Bittenfeld, and Erich, with
their staffs. Before mass, the Prussian
General Falkenstein passed in review order the
different corps of the civic guard, thanked them for
the services which they rendered in preserving
order in the city, and promised that the guns which
had been taken from them on the entrance of the
Prussians would be restored. The national hymn
was sung three times at the theatre during the
evening."
