marck last night gave diplomatic din
ner at which Count Schouveloff, the
Russian ambassador; Herbert, the
French ambassador, and other heads of
legations were present During the
course of the evening Count Herbert ,
speaking TO Count Won HatZfeldt
German minister TO England, promised
under request of the emperor to exon
crate Sir Robert Morier, ambassador to
Russia, from any charges connected with
the BaZaine incident. This result was
communicated to Morier, who ex-
pressed himself as dissatisfied. He
says that as the official prints
make the charges there must be
an official withdrawal. Lord Salisbury
in personal communication to Prince
Bismarck asks him to order a direct
statement that the charge is absurd.

The landtag is convoked
for the 14th inst A measure will be
presented increasing the kings civil list
by 900 200 marks, this sum being adj
ditiOnal to the amount requested from
the reichstag. Semi-official papers argue
that the allowance should be more, that
according to the feeling in Berlin it
ought to be double the amount
asked. The loyalty of Berliners toward
the emperor has led to caution
from the North German Gazette against
croWding upon the carriages of the i'm
perial party when ont driving. The Ga
Zette says: Repeated ovations recently
given to their majesties while out driving
have more than once given rise
to Inconvenience. Crowding too near
the carriages and especially running
before them is apt to make the horses
FESTIVE. Moreover, when persons in
cautiously approach carriage they often
run great danger. Apart from accidents
arising from these causes, too impetuous
crowding upon their majesties is incom-
patible with that
FEELING OF DUE RESPECT
which ought to be shown to them and the
absence of which deprives a demonstfa-
ton of the character of a genuine ova-
ton With regard to the throwing of
letters and petitions into the emperor s
carriage, it should be known it is better
to deliver such documents at the court

The Reicnzanzeiger publishes a rescript
from the Emperor William to Prince Bis

fresh strength to enter upon the new

Wilhelm Herr Won Blicher, vice-presi-
dent of Prussian ministry, will press the
report asking an increase in the civil list
The king proposes to raise it from u =
900 200 to 10 900, 900 marks apart from
the reichstag donation, which Prince
Bismarck will personally announce.
The papers to-day generally comment
on the Morier affair. Vossiche Zeitung
remarks the impression that perusal of
the letters leaves is painful. Incidents
such as those can only serve to trouble
the relations of the two countries con-
nected by kindred and affinity
