On April II. 1713, was signed at
Utrecht in Holland a treaty OF peace
which closed a war that had been
raging for twelve years-the War OF
the Spanish Succession; known on
this side Of the water as Queen
Anne's war. The question at issue
was who should be king of Spain.
Leopold of Austria, emperor of Ger
many, claimed it for his grandson.
Trance had become a mighty power
and the nations viewed with alarm 4
Bourbon prince who might become
king of France on the throne of Spain.
At once vas formed the "Grand ALI
ance" of England, Holland, Austria
and Germany, and, later, Portugal.
Frances allies were Bavaria and the
Guchies Of Modena and Savoy. Spain
sided with France but lacked money
and men. This war brought out the
splendid military genius Of MARI
borough and the scarcely less remark-
able genius Of Prince Eugene OF
Savoy; and the victories of Blenheim,
Families. Oudenarde and Malpldquet
humbled the pride and broke the pow
err of France.
Colonies Bore Brunt of War.
In this country the northern and
southern colonies bore the brunt of
the war. The Carolinas, then one
colony extending to Spanish Florida,
sent a force which captured st. Au-
gustine but retired upon the arrival
Of a French army. Further west a
Carolina expedition fought its way to
the Gulf Of Mexico. The French and
Spanish fleets attacked Charleston,
but were driven off. In Massachu-
sets. Haverhill and Deerf1eld were
burned by forces of French and In
dams and in the heart of the state
the people were kept in terror for
years by prowling bands who burned
and killed. A New England force,
| aided by an English fleet, captured
Port Royal in Nova Scotia and a
colonial army invaded Canada only to
retreat.
In Europe the allies had invaded
France and the English had taken
Gibraltar. The emperor, Leopold, and
| his eldest son were both dead and the
| German claimant for the Spanish
throne had become German emperor.
England, only anxious for the bal
e.nce Of power, M3w saw a greater
taenace in Germany than in France.
A French priest, who had been liv-
ing in England, went to France and
asked one of the kings ministers
'Do you want peace? I have come to
| offer you the means Of treating fOr
1t :" which, said the minister, twas

long and dangerous disease If he

Of Emperor Alexander of Russia was
preparing an alliance the plan Of
which was conceived on the most al
truistic lines and which, he fondiy
hoped, would bring eternal peace to
the world. 1t was not only to be a
league to enforce peace between the
nations, but vas to lay down certain
principles which should insure peace,
and prosperity within the borders Of
the nationss This was the Holy AL
lance.
Emperor Alexander at that time was
under the influence Of a mystic. 1t
seems that there was an occult party
about the Russian throne then, just as
there was in the recent days of the
late Emperor Nicholas. Emperor Alex
ander declared that there should be an
alliance Of nations founded upon high
