THE veteran .Perley' is thus impressed
.y President Arthur: lie is the most manly
and dienified incumbent of the Office since
MIlsrd Fillmore, and his courteous manners
have not been equaled since Franklin Pierce.
TIL .huilt. with broad shoulders and
an ample chest, he maintains dlgnifed a.
t,tud. without being reserved or formal. lie
does not attempt to amuse visitors by telling
cr,oked stories, or by INDUCING in long,
hypocritical harangues; neither does ne put
hi, arms around his acquaintance and hug
them by way Of compensation for not grant
Ing their requests, but his conversation Is
s.nsible. somewhat reserved perhaps, but 10

The Emperor,s Speech

| Inc emperor SPCcSn.
BERLIN, November 1S.-The Emperors
speech alphabetically points out that social
evils are not to be remedied by repression
alone, but rather by the concurrent promo
ton of the welfare Of the working classes.
The Emperor says he will look back on all
his successes with great satisfaction II he can
bequeath to the Fatherland new and lasting
guarantees for continuous peace at home and
abroad.
He rejoices the more to be able to express
his entire satifaction with State and foreign
politics. At no time during the last two
years could the maintenance Of peace be an
ticipated so confidently rs at present. The
meetings at Gaslein and Dunlzeig were ex-
pressions Of close personal and political rela-
tions between the Sovereigns and their en-
pires. The confidence thus existing between
the three Imperial Courts Is q trustworthy
guarantee of peace, which is identical In
their policy.
The speech Concluded as fellows: s.Our
relations with all the Powers are most
friendly. The belief in Germapy's royal
and sincere desire for peace has gained a
hold with every nation. We regard 1t as our
duty to God and Fatherland to strengthen
and justify that faith"
Two hundred Deputies were present dur
nc the reading of the speech. The decision
that the Emperor should not open the Reich
stag In person was reached this morning and
was in consequence of the advice of his pbysi-
clans. The decision made necessary some
verbal alteration in the speech.
BERLIN, November 18.-The Liberal press
unanimously express regret that the august
person Of the Sovereign has been put for
ward in opposition TO the majority of the
nation In favor of socialistic and political
puppets, for which Bismarck ought himself
10 assume the sole responsibility. The ex-
element caused by the message yesterday
vas great. All kinds Of sensational rumors
were aaoat, including even The report that
the Emperor had abdicated.
BERLIN, November lS.--The Liberals are
disappointed at the Emperor utterly ignor-
ing the Liberal majority. The people are
astounded at the Government taking this
mode Of declaring what is considered war
to the knife.
