left his son, who has similar tastes, but
little to throw away in turn, saying that
as his son was fool he might as well
expend his means, as it would not last
long when his son should succeed him.
The King is marrisd to sister of the
Gar of Russia, 9 woman far pfettier
and more queenly than Eugene, much

tunnel pierces directly beneath its, cen
tire. Afine opportunity foe one with d

lodge to dine. his own carriage proceed

other indispensables. Among them was

courtesy and politeness, returned my
