 Picture of Gladstone in Ireland.
 LONDON, Oct 19-Lolxl Salisbury has at last deemed it advisable to return to the foreign office and ascertain what business can be of such importance as to occasion daily visit from the German ambassador. Lord Salisbury came in from his country seat at Hatfield in response to 0 letter from Count Won Hatzfeldt, and the two had prolonged interview It is understood that Count Won Hatzfeldt formally complained to the Eng fish premier and foreign secretary of the publishing in England of the fac simile of Emperor Frederick's complaint of Dr. Berg man. This complaint was written by the late emperor on a slip of paper, which he handed to Dr. Mackenzie, but which, though the latter did not publish in his book, he ex- hibited to numbers of his friends
 The paper, with a fac simiie of the late em- peror's handwriting, was printed ill London. Lord Salisbury, however, it is stated, repudi- ated all complicity in it's Publication in behalf of himself and the English royal family The German ambassador then inquired as to the truth of the report that Prince Alexander of Sattenberg and Princess Victoria of Prussia were to be married shortly at Windsor. Lord Salisbury declared that he had never heard any such report, but promised to make in quiry in the matter. It is evident that the relations between the British and Prussian courts are becoming critical, and that the English premier will have his hands full in making explanations and smoothing matters between the queen and her headstrong grand son.
