The birth Of Francis Joseph's daughter, the infant
Archduchess has Afforded occasion for the renewal
| Of an Old World folly. worthy only Of the Middle
| Ages. The 0vernowng Joy Of the Emperor-King's
heart has moved him to confer upon his subjects on
both sides Of the Letha the blessing of letting loose
Q number OF criminals upon society, among whom,
| by the way, is hero named Sandor sometimes
called the Hungarian Robin Hood and believed to be
one Of the most finished highwaymen and chivalrous
cutthrOats living. Another and better act Of amnesty
is that which restores their pensions to those Of the
officers Of the imperial army who lost their right to
the same in consequence of their having fought
the popular national Hungarian side in 1S4s or
1s49.
In reply to the deputation from the Reichsrath
which waited on the Emperor-King to present their
congratulations on the happy family event, the
sovereign said:-'Let us march forward, quickly
and resolutely. on the road we have entered upon,
that may the sooner arrive at fruitful and bene-
fetal results"

The club Of the cote 0aache has been visited by DR..
Breste and two OF his colleagues, and interpelated

OF the club, and the opinion that there ought to be
no more incislve act Of national bankruptcy than
that already proposed by the ministry prevailed The
doctrines upheld In the subcommttee's report were
not approved by this portion Of the deputies
Still decision has yet been come to by this club In
favor of the property tax and it known that the cote
droft are unanimously opposed to it and that they
will vote with the subcommittee. Thus the pros
poets OF the property tax are as black as ever On
the other hand the wholesale reputation doctrines
of Deputy Skene find no favor There is, indeed a
proposal to tax the interest the public debt at the
cent as proposed by the Ministry, and this is re-

The other great question Of the day, the leading
one In Hungary is that OF the reorganization Of the
Count Taafe, of the West Austrian Ministry have
been for the last ten days at Pesth in consultation
with the HUNGARIAN Ministry upon this subject. The

best to postpone treating OF this grave constitutional

In 1865 Kossuth received from Italy, not five mil

he has accounted to Secretary OF State

to say upon this delicate money question M. Irayni

OF insane arrogance and vanity. But as there Is not

Percze Is not overgfted with the sense OF modesty
is not disputed even by his friends.
The projected naval expedition TO be sent from
Triesteo the Chinese and Japanese waters has been
delayed by the reluctance of the Hungarans to con-
tribute the thirty per cent which is asked of them.

may be interesting 10 observe how the German
Austrans take the King OF Prussias speech on the
assembling OF the Zoll Parliament. After noting the
rcserve'' which claracterizes he royal Speech the
OF to-day says:-This reserve Is dictated both
by the partcularist State right attitude of the
South German governments. well as by the dis
trust which France exhibits towards the union OF
Germany. On these grounds the King gives only
very prudent expression TO the joy he doubtless
feels az seeing around him the representatives of ali
the German States Herein we find new proof OF
the cleverness Of the Prrssian government We are
the more bound 10 make this Acknowledgement to IL,
"a such an attitude subserves primary interest
that Of the preservation OF the peace OF Europe.
The King moreover, gives expressive utterance to
his hopes Of the preservation OF peace and
proudly adds that Germany, united as it Is
by the offensive and defensive treaties be-
tween North and South Germany, is one OF the
stirest bulwarks against the storm OF invasion. on
this ground we have never opposed the unity of Ger
many In spite OF the events OF 1896, however much
our German national feeling may have been hurt
thereby. In the speech from the throne the
representatives OF the whole nation are addressed.
This appeal to the treaty OF Prague seems natural
enough even 10 the German Austrians. as it
comes from Prussan lips. However. King Will
liam mentions Austria In n more sympathetic
manner than he has for some years. He recon-
mends the treaty ofcommerce between the Zollverein
and Austria with the remark that Austria is a land
united To Germany by ties of and by material i'm
