office OF Governor General OF Courland. where he
distinguished himself by his success in Russian
izing the German population of the province

OF the brutality and tyranny displayed by his
brother Governors OF the other western provinces

may be regarded as constituting the best guaran-
tee OF his honesty and incorruptibility. That he
is of liberal and progressive views is evi-
dent from his intimacy with Grand Duke Con-

the Radical OF the Imperial family, and certain
