WILLIAM l TO BISMBRCK.

HIS TRIBUTE TO THE MAN WHO BROUGHT ABOUT
THE GLORY OF GERMANY.
After the recent speech OF William II at the
banquet of the Diet OF Brandenburg, giving
his grandfather, William 1. all the glory in
the re-establishment OF the German empire,
Bismarck's reply was looked for with much
interest. 1t has just now appeared indirectly
in the fourth volume of the life of the ex-Chan-
cellor by Herr Horst Kohl, in which William
is himself put upon the witness-stand. This
volume contains series of letters from the
old Emperor to his Minister aud among them
is The following In his own handwriting:
BERLIN, April l. 1883
AS usual, send you nv cordial greetings on the
anniversary which MARKS the day when the AL
mighty, In his wisdom and good ness gave You 10
the world and 10 me! May this year pass by for
you with less bodily pains than afflicted you dur
what poor health is have felt it seriously during
the last few weeks, when was unable to commu-
nicate with you, except Indirectly, but ALWAYS
thank God, In perfect accord. This Is also the
reason why / am com PEELED 10 take up my pen to-
is not very far from u.s. send you, as a sou
venir of your blessed festival Of to-day the inev
table egg which bears the eagle that you restored
to life. May Its fl ght be glorious in the futureI
Your faithfully devoted and grateful
WILLIAM
On the 4th of October, 1883, Immediate,
after the inauguration of the Germania 1t atue
Al iederwald In honor OF the German vic
tories, on which occasion Bismarck was alb
sent on account OF illness, William / wrote to
him as follows:
Your absence on the occasion Of the ceremonies
of the inauguration Of the monument of Nieder-
wald caused me great pain espec, ally after the
happy of that festival. 1T Of the
most successful that ever witnessed in its order,
the manner n which 1t was conduct d, the impos
ing character of tie monument ITSELF tho unex-
pected sunshine, and. above all, the sentiments
with whio The com BAT ants in those battles and
victories which the monum ent is consecrated
were imbued. Now, you stand In the ont rank
among those men-you who brought q bout those
mighty events and conducted them to their
iect, q glorious peace. 10 express to you once
more publicly my thanks and my gratitude would
have been a task dear to my heart. But that was
not TO be. Nevertheless, thought Of you more
than once.
Immediately after the appearance of the
volume IN question, the Hamburger Nachrich-
ten pu bills he'd brief article. evidently co M
municated, in regard to the vast number of
dis patches that were received by the eX-Chan-
celior on the centenary of William ], and al
most at the same time Count Herbert Bis
marck, speaking in the Conservative Congress
of Dresden, uttered these bold and bitter
words:
Bismarck is still to-day the object of many
enmities on account of his national policy,
but he regards the grossest insult with the
calm, light heart Of a philosopher. His per-
sona1ity is historically consecrated, and, even
though he may not have his monument in
Berlin, that city in its entirety stands as his
monument"

AUSTRALIAN FEDERATION.

1t is altogether likely that the most
notable event of the sixtieth year that
Victoria has reigned over the British en-
pire will be the accomplishment of the
federation of the Australian colonies.
The creation of united Australia, which
has been under consideration for long
time, is row in fair way to be attained
and there are prospects that it will be re.
allied during the coming summer.
The convention to which was com.
mitted the task OF formulating a plan OF
union and drawing up a constitution for
the new federation has completed its
work in manner that seems to be fairly
satisfactory to the people of all the COLO
MES. The work performed by them has
been submitted to the Parliaments of the
various colonies. not for amendment or
