condition of Ihirope The kaiser returns

The most Impoitant incident of his journey
was , peihaps , the toist of the Grand Duke
Vladimir After the speech of the emperor ,
spoken in Gel nun at the official banquet ,
Giand DuKe Vladimir , who was seated bo-
blde Mine Billet , the wife of the Flench
ambassador , slid in a loud tone-
"I di ink to the piosperit } and glory of
} our beautiful counti } "
All those at the t iblo hcird the sentence ,
w hich pioduced a great effect Tlio sentence
was spolten by command of thoczir , in
older to prove in a unnner differing from a
diplomatic note , that nothing had been
changed as Iho undcislanding between
Tianie and Russi i
'lilt' } Ulhcusdcd ( .eiirnillttes.
I have been able to lew. fiom a source
absoluteh ccitain.lh.it the subjects of the
Inlervlcws between the ompetor and the
pope were con lined to generaltlles on Ilia
pirt of both , each deslilng to avoid any
thing that might oblige them to speak on
binning topus The euipeior was very
ih.ii'iilng , as he knows how to bo when ho
wishes Hn told tlio pope that ho was filled
with icspoi t foi him ami was ulvv.is ready
to follow his counsels The pope called him
at Hist "sire , " b'lt at the end said "my sou , "
although It is not his custom to so address
piotestants Ho said
"Ono of the duties of the church Is to di
rect the labeling masses , " and ho added :
"Ono of the duties of sovereigns Is to ba
conceincd about the greatest good of the
greatest number , and to try and better tlio
condition of unfoitunato , which Is moro im
portant than lo increase the number of the
army corps "
Tlio ompoior then spoke of war and of the
ncccssit } of monirchles to naturally pro
tect cadi other Ho declined lhat tha
lilplo alliance was not an Instrument of at
tack , hut a means of defense , and added
that if the tiiplo alliance should bo do-
sliocd the pope might lun risks.
The pope lophed : "I offer tills posslblo
trial as a saciillcc to the good of Cluis-
tians. "
I.'iich Impressed the Other.
The speakers made a profound Impression
on each other The emneror was visibly
moved. On his depailure the pope spoke a
longtime of the emperor with hlspiclatea
who smrounded him , and said "It Is
stiango how monarchy Imvo fears of jvar. "
' 1 he Impression on the prelates who saw
the pope after the Interview with the cm-
pcior , and after the audience gianted to
Baton Maish.il von Bibcrsteln is that the
polUical situation in nuropo Is graver and
moro uncertain than over. But 1 repeat ,
the greatest impiesslon from the Roman
celebrations on Huropean dlulonuCts is duo to
the language of Giand Duke Vladimir.

otheis tend tow ml idealism , but there Is no

ono new effoit of genius U would bo a vrry
