riage of his daughter, Princess Victoria,
10 Prince Alexander of Baltenberg have
not been successful. For this reason
there are no longer any grounds for q

Owing to comments based upon a

The Emperor you so faithfully served for
twenty-seyen years is gone to his rest
and the paQple are cheering the present
ruler, who shared in founding the great
ness Of the fatheTland. Your Highness,
ike us all, will serve him with the same
old German manly royalty. To use a
military Illustration, will compare the
present situation with that of regiment
