London, (by maiD Feb. 11.-Some Of
the pamphlets which were secretly cir

admitted and deprecated by the Ger

phlets Struggled out of Germany, has
reached the Liverpool Daily Post, which
gives a literal translation, which in
part follows:
When Germany is ready for it, and the
time is approaching.
1t Will come when Germany has
learned h lesson OF the war.
"The hour of peace will strike when
Germans no longer heed the makers
OF war; when they despise and hiss the
apostles Of militarism and jingoism.
Peace will come when the Germans
say to the emperor: You have been
loved n obeyed; you for whom we
have sacrificed ourselves and our dear
ones: you. who have not spared even
u ideals and beliefs and traditions
we nave sacrificed all to you-and
what have we in return? Nothing. but
hunger and cold and nakedness. disease
and death, ruin and restitution.
Never before in the history of the
world has there been sacrifice so great
or so willingly made. Before our heroic
deeds the armies of Napoleon shrivel
