MADAM -
1t is my official duty to offer to
Your Majesty congratulations On
your accession to the throne, in ac-
cordance with the provisions OF the
Constitution of your Kingdom. Turn
ing from the funeral scenes through
which we have just passed, | address
Your Majesty words Of hope as to the
future of your reign. Standing OF
the borderland of Death and the flu
ture world, of which we have been SO
solemnly reminded 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 earn
est qualification that Your Majesty
has taken the firm resolution to aid
in making your reign strictly con-
stitutional reign, to maintain the con
stitutional right Of your Ministers to
administer the laws, and always to
acknowledge their sponsibillty 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 Majesty places yourself in the
exalted rank of the best Sovereigns Of
the world, and thus will avoid those
embarrassments and perplexities
which have so often disturbed the
peace and crippled the prosperity of
countries 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 to your whole people.
In endeavorng to make good these
suspicious promises, Your Majesty
will have the full sympathy and the
good wishes of the Government which
| have the honor to represent at this
capital.
