PASSED A GOOD NIGHT.
BERLIN, April is The Emperor had
better day yesterday. He coughed and
spit less than usual, and there is now not
so much fear of pneumonIs, the bron-
chitis being limited. Though the fever
increased last night there are no other un-
favorable symptoms.
NOT MUCH CHANGE.
BERLIN, April lS-A consultation held
| by the physicians this morning showed
the Enperor's condition to be less salts
factory than it was yesterday morning,
but better than lest evenings feyerisn
symptoms indicated.
The physicians have sgain sounded the
Emperor's lungs and found that they are
not affected. This strengthens the opin-
| ion that an abscess has formed IN The
| trachea.
Up. m.-The condition of the Emperor
is slmest the same as it was yesterday
The fever has lot left him, but his
strength is satisfactory. The physicians
held a consultation this morning. Prince
Bismarck visited the Emperor at II
O'Clock. The Emperor arose at $3.50 and

NO WORSE NOR BETTER.
BERLIN, April Is, 1880 P. M.-The En-
peror's condition is no worse nor better.
Intense excitement prevails. Although
the doctors bulletins do not mention
such thing, the opinion gains ground
that an abscess has formed in the!trach es.
The Emper received the Grand Duke
and Grand Duchess of B Sden this after
noon. His Majesty afterward slept for
two hours and arose at O'Clock
when he walked to his study and went
with the Empress to the window OF the
room. His appearance at the window
was the signal for enthusiastic acclama-
ton by the crowd outside the castle.
Mackenzie sends daily @ long CIPHER
telegram to Queen Victoria. Precautions
have been taken to insure the utmost
stiffness in the neigaborhood Of the castle
in order that the Emperor's repose may
not be disturbed. Carriages stop a. q
distance from the castle instead of driv-
ing into the court yard.
PRINCE WILLIAM.
Public interest will now be centered in
the grandson of the Kaiser, and son of the
Crown Prince, Prince William. From
his character the probable ascension
to the throne is viewed with feelings
of no illfounded alarm by ell OF Europe.
Though q mere boy, being in his
tWent y-eighth year, yet he has
chiefly distinguished himself IS repre-
sentative type of the Prussian military
younker. He is the pride of the military
party and the hope of Prince Bismarck,
who, as is we'll known, has no love for
the Crown Prince. The Prince was 8
great fayorite Of the Emperor, who, with
the great Chancellor. instilled in him the
prin iples Of Frederick the Great.
He Is ayoung man who hates every
thing thst is not German, and many say
that when he becomes Emperor there will
| be war.
HIS EDUCATION.
| His training has been most excellent.
The best professors have alwavs been at
bis command in the colonies, mathe-
matIcs, physics, religion and classics.
He was sent to the university at Cassel,
where he held high position in his class,
passing his examinations with ere tit. HIS
compositions at Cassel were mostly on
military subjects, one Of them being upon
Alexander the Greats expedition to H.
dis, in which he lsuded effusively the wild
monarch of Greece. The Prince WAS after
ward a. Bonn, where he was very popu-
lar with the students. He wes
fond of botanizipg, mountain climbing
and all sorts of sport, Among the HON.
eric heroes Hector WAS his favorlte. The
Prince was skillfuI on skates and fine
swimmer.
| While at Bonn he translated some of
the odes of Horace and wrote several
plays, one of which, "Chsrlemsgne in AK
Ia Chspelle," was performed by his fellow
students.
HIS MILITARY TRAINING.
In 1877 he was placed In the military
service as Premier Lieutenant of the
First Regiment of Guards. When he en-
tered upon his military duties the old
Emperor his grandfather, delivered him
this remarkable address;
| You have learned from study Of his
tory that all the Kings of Prussia have,
together with their duties as regents,
always paid chief attention to the army.
The great Elector gave mighty example
to the hosts by his own personal courage.
Frederick I. knew very well when he
placed the crown upon his hesd that he
would be compelled to defend this
step. He knew well, however, inst his
troops tried in battle would enable
| him to do so. FREQ erick William in
the garrison, which you now enter, and
which has been well called the cradle Of
the Prussiau army, laid the firm POUNDS
ton to its organization by the strict dis
cipline which he introduced, without
which no army can exist. And his spirit
still lives. Frederick the Great, possessed
of natural talent as commander, took
this firmly built organization as the basis
of the army with which he made
war and fought battles thst made him
