BERLIN, March AT the session OF
the North-German Parliament yester-
day, King William opened the proceed
ings with a speech. He said the first
duty of the North-German Confedera-

" relations with the other powers OF
the earth. All the other nations Of
Europe had shown disposition for
peace, and the result of the Conference
at Paris had demonstrated that there
was general desire for peace. The
King closed with the following: A ma
ton saving its strength, and having g
will to respect the independence o.
others and maintain its own, can surely
count on peace, as foreign powers will
not modest il, and the domestic enemies
of order are powerless to prevent 1T.
