• The Emperor of the French put in a claim for
rectification of frontier on the German side of ble
empire. This demand excited in Germany a uni-
versal feeling of consternation and indignation, and
the Cabinet of Berlin showed to his Imperial Ma-
jesty that they had no choice in the matter—that
they could not accede without facing a people
roused to the highest point. The Emperor having
put forth the feeler, and seen its effect on
both France and Germany, quickly took in the
whole position, and in a few sensible words
an-
nounced to the Prussian Envoy his object in making
the demand, and his reasons for withdrawing it.
Whether foiled or successful Napoleon is alwar
master of the position. What would have brought
down a storm of indignation on any other man
produces little effect on the mighty reputation of
the Emperor of the French. Whatever intriguers
may say France is well aware that the honour and
influence Of the country are in the best hands, and
that there is no nation in Europe, or combination
of nations, as long as the Emperor rules, that dare
excite the just pride and wrath of the gallant Gaul.
At first some fears were excited by this demand, but
people soon settled down to the confident belief
that the Emperor would not press his claim to a
war with Germany. Happily for all parties than
was no doubt what the result would be. The Ger-
man mind spoke out at once, and the whole natiello
united, declared their minds on the subject. The
question, therefore, got out of that drift which tenl
so often to add complication to complication, an,
ends by exciting the liveliest feelings of anger 513 k
