MoRIER FREDERICK's FRIEND.
The BerLiRer TdgebldL publishes a long
letter quoting from pamphlet on Ireland,
written hy Sir Robert Morier, in which he
refers to the agrarian legislation of Prussia.
The pamphlet was issued in 1870 by the
Golden Club. The T'dgebtdH says it is easily
understood how a man oil Sir Roberts intel
ligence and veneration for the great men
of Prusssian history should have been a
friend of Emperor Frederick. 1t is difficult
to comprehend that he BETRAYED Germany
in her hour of difficulty to the son of man
whose treatment Of Baron Steen SIR
Robert in his pamphlet characterizes as con-
temptible.
The VosSische Zeitung says that the letter

ex-Empress Augusta, to Counsellor Rotten
burg. denying that in 1870 the contents of
secret dispatches to Empress Augusta from
tae Prussian headquarters were impaired
to Sir Robert Morier at Darmstadt, and
saying that at that time ex Empress Au-
gusta was ia Berlin is a bitter, but well
merited reprimand to those who, by excit-
iug the puolic against Sir Ro5ert, sought q
eventually villify the memory of Emperor
Frederick.
