ALL IN FULL UNIFORM.
These German officers were all attired in
the full uniforms of their respective CORPS,
and presented a somewhat strange and un-
usual appearance in the halls of Bucking-
ham palace. The emperor received his SOL
| diers as cheerfully and pleasantly as he had
previously received his citizen subjects and
| exchanged few words with each officer in
the deputation, having something to say to
all in regard to their regiments, brother off
GERS in Germany, changes in the service and
the like.
A deputation from the anti-slavery
society was next ushered in. Again did the
emperor hsten patiently and agreeably
while an address Of the usual dry order was
read to him. The emperor, in replying,
showed that he had good knowledge of the
subject, and referred TO the inhumanity Of
the Arab slaYers and the suffering of the
! slaves.
THE FIsHMoNGERs.
| Hardly had the anti-slavery disciples left
the palace when delegation from the old
and important fishmongers' company was
| introduced, blushing and bowing, aud again
| did the German emperor courteously stand
the fire of a long winded address as if moth
ing in the world gratifed him as much as to
|
fshmongers' company, as recently drawn up
for his special beuefit in FtshmonRers' hall.
The diplomatic corps in full uniform was
next received.

his second appearance on Rytton Row.

mounted upon one of his own horses, brought

on the row, and from them the emperor re-
ceived general Salutations.

and that of the Prussian Royal Dragons,
