A Sad Want of Originality.

The Crown Prince Of Denmark fu:-
nishes curious example Of the no.
menclature practiced by royal famil-
les. The rule in Turkey was that
Amurath should succeed Amurath,
and in England that George should
succeed George or Henry should fol-
low Henry. In Denmark, however,
the rule has long been that Frederick
should succeed Christian and Chris
tian Frederick.
This is confusing enough to write
intelligibly, but it is still worse in
practice. Nearly every Danish king
is named Christian or Frederick, and
so the difficulty Of distinguishing be-
tween them is great.
The present king Is Christian the
Ninth. He was the son Of Frederick
the Seventh. He will be succeeded
by Frederick the Eighth, who in turn
will be followed by Christian the
Tenth. The mere fact that the pres
ent Crown Prince is known us Fred
erick, and that If he died before his
father he would be succeeded in his
rights by his son, Prince Christian,
is nothing at all.
All the sons OF the royal house Of
Denmark are Christian aud Freder-
lex, and therefore, from the point Of
view OF mere nomenclature, it does
not matter which Of them succeeds
to the crown. The next two lots in
crowned heads in Copenhagen would
be labeled Frederick the Eighth and
Christian the Tenth, under any cir
cumstances.
In many princely German families
every male who is born is christened
by the hereditary name. The result
Of this peculiar custom may be illus
trated by the fact that in the reign
ing house OF Reuss the Eenrys run up
to Henry the Sixty-ninth.
