MADAM
1t is my official duty to offer to Your |
Majesty congratulations on your accession |
TO the throne. in accordance with the pro- |
visions Of the Constitution of your King |
dom. Turning from the funeral scenes |
through which We have just passed, 1 ad-
dress Your Majesty words of hope as to
the future of your reign. Standing on the
borderland of Death and the future world,
of which We have been SO solemnly re-
Ilinded by what has just transpired in our
midst, and reverent towards the Supreme
God, to whom all are accountable, the
Minister of the United States expresses his
earnest qualification that Your Majesty
has taken the firm resolution to aid in
making your reign a strictly constitutional
reign, 70 maintain the constitutional right
of your Ministers to administer the laws,
and always to acknowledge their RESPONSE
bility to the Legislature in the performance
OF their sworn obligations. In the wish
thus to respect the supreme authority OF
the Constitution and the Laws, Your Ma
jesty places yourself in the exalted rank of
the best Soyereigns of the world, and thus
will avoid those embarrassments and per-
plexities which have so often disturbed the
peace and crippled the prosperity of coun-
tries not blessed with free and enlightened
constitutions. 1t is my earnest prayer
that Your Majesty may be able to carry
out your noble resolution, and thus have
full time and opportunity to discharge the
duties which Your Majesty justly regards
necessary to the success of your reign. and
beneficial 20 your whole people. In en-
deayoring to make good these suspicious
promises, Your Majesty will have the full
sympathy and the good wishes of the Gov
eminent which l have the honor to repre-
sent at this capital.
