elapsed since the day when his majesty,
our grandfather, now resting with God.
answering the appeal of the German
princes and free towns, and the desire
Of the nation, assumed the dignity OF
| emperor, we have decided to celebrate
the memory Of this remarkable event.
which brought a final and brilliant
fulflment to the aspirations which the
German people entertained SO long
| and afforded the restored empire the
position to which it was entitled
among the nations Of the world
by its history, it's development and Gull
ture. For this purpose, we have sum-
moned the plenipotentiaries OF our
mighty allies and the representatives OF
the people, and also those men who at
that great epoch prominently con-
| tributed to the works Of the union of
the German people.
Bismarck's Services Acknowledged.
His majesty then thanked Providence
that the past rs years had bestowed
blessing upon the empire, and declared
that his grandfather's VOW to protect
| the rights of the empire and preserve
peace had, so far, with Gods help, been
fulfilled.
The emperor also alluded to the work
achieved by the German nation for the
past % years, under the direction Of
Its great emperor and the advice OF its

The emperor then appealed to all

support him in promoting 1.-The great.

Fatherland."
"He added: 1--WE shall then be able
to oppose unitedly and solidly any at.
tacks upon our independence. and de-
vote ourselves undisturbed to the cult.
walton Of our interests.
But the German empire is far from
being in danger from other states, and,
always enjoying the respect and con.
fdence of the nations, will continue in
the future as in the past, q strong pillar
of Deace."
