HIS COURTSHIP AND MARRIAGE.

a

(@. Von Bunsen in Harper's Magazine.)

The visit of the Crown Prince (now Frederick I11., of Germany,) to England, to take part in the ing of the first ional exhibition of 1 was not

only journey undertaken during the tudent life of 1850-2. Yet it remained the Best important. He had occasion there to hear hisown stern father qxpatiste, and

assem bling hundreds and thousands of people without any military precautions, a policeman visible, and yet

ithout disorder of any kind, the sole con- «i ion being that they should feel thorough- contented. If memory serves me t, the ne er that ‘* Peace Fes-

” (as Queen Victoria aptly calls it) was

the first known in London when no suigle oe police courts. No acci- had occurred among 700,060 persons assembled outside the exhibition build- ing. The young prince was struck with the - loyalty of a free people. He observed with growing admira- tium the restless and unseltish industry of the Prince Consort. He felt attracted by the air of perfect domestic happiness pervadirig the heart and core and focus of the greatest empire the world has yet seen. It was then too that, standing before a picture of Titian, he observed to his com- =: *Ts there not a strong likeness een that saint to the left and the Princess Royal?’ Perhaps this question was intended to convey the im ion that he too, like so many others, given a first and willing ht to the fitness of af alliance with’ the daughter of such a

country break the. silence. “The first words—and not even a word bat a suggestion upon that wish of and ina manner which reminds one of last century :

the Prussian envoy, my father, in 1

ing a visit to London of “cao Empress of rmany. had been undertakea

+ mow .

Prnssia appeared he had been looking the famous picture of Waterloo with the farmhouse of La Belle Alliance in the

known, the Prussians have affectionately aamed the historic battle. He observed various portraits of the Princess Royal and of Prince Frederic William lying about the room. Placing them with some precipita- tiom one of each over the large engraving of the battle he quitted the table to bow to the august personage on herentrance. His movement had, however, been ebdserved. The Princess, advancing to the table, per- ceived the two bonny youthful countenances smiling at her from out of the engravings, ‘ and underneath nothing but just these mo- mentous words La Belle Alliance. A rapid glance was exchanged, but nothing said. This little scene remains, I think, typical to the present day. For the purpose which these two true-hearted and experienced persons had striven perseveringly tor, viz., a solid understanding among cognate races --peace and good-will between England and Germany, and that good-will sealed and cemented by every token of brotherhood capable of enhancing sentiment. and of preparing a better future—that parpoze must continue to hold a high place in the feelings, and, I would venture to say, the duties, of statesmen of either nation as long as they exist.

At last the year 1853 came, and with it (January 25) the marriage of those two young people so different in temperament, and yet so eminently fitted for eace other. His frequent visits to the royal family of England had strengthened first impressions. The Prince must have been blind indeed had he not observed that the queen and her husband were attached to their eldest child, not with blind, doting fondness, but as to a person of very rare gifts and of unbounded promise. “{ hold her,” said the trusted friend of that family, Baron Stockmar— **T hold her to be exceptionally gifted in many things, even to the point of genius.” Is there another example in history of a well-planned systematic education in poli- tics having been commenced so early in life as Princess Victoria’s at the hands of her eminent father? He made it a rule when walking with her in the gardens of Buck- ingham Palace, or of Windsor, or at Bal- moral, to tell herthe contents of letters from his politieal correspondents in various parts of E , and how each would be replied to by hi Next day he would let her read the letters and the answers there- to. And this was a girl of from thirteen to fifteen years old! A girl, toe, occupied with the ordimary lessons of her age, and having to master, when the daily tasks were done, some strange new science, such as national economy, of which she had for her instructor during several years one of the most thorough-going economists and educationists of his or any other age, the late William Ellice. ‘* Vicky is also v busy,” writes her father in 1855. ‘‘She now comes tome every oe Mee in order to give precision to ideas 2 her work out certain subjects by herself, and bring me the results to be revised. Thus she is now engaged m writing a short compendium of Roman history.”

QUEEN VICTORIA’S JOURNALS, epitomized into that most delightful book, Martin’s Life of the Prince Consort, have told the world all about the weoing and the winning of the Prince, her eldest son-in- law. The reader fancies that it is his own life-story that is told. How he asks his father’s and mother’s consent before pro-

im 1855, ‘“‘and the purity,

chiefly promiment qualities are great straightforwardness, frankness and honesty. He appears to be free from prejudices, and pre-eminently well-intentioned.”

Semanal From time immemorial no foreign ele- rent had found its way into the Prussian court. It isnot surprising, therefore that she was not weleomed by what one calls “*society” in Berlin with the same unbounded joy as by the middle and lower strata of the population. If she was proud of her British habits and descent, so were they of the power that Prussia had obtained in =— the world, owing not a little to their prowess and fidelity. Her references, bowever casually made, to English maniers and custama, were construed as criticisms of those in her new fatherland. This habit of fault-finding among the upper classes it has taken a quarter of a century to smooth over, whilst the lower orders have found her throughout exactly what they had ex- pected hev to be when Ame, viz., a person of truly high-br Mmplicity, of warm sympathies for all the sorrows and joys of her fellow creatures, of gentiy win- ning ways, a friend ef the ignorant and a believer in man’s immortal soul.

(Boston Sunday Herald.)

Between the ethical and the practical as- pects of prohibitory legisiation- there is a wide distinction, and one whick no one, except the prohibitionist, in the usual sense of the word, can fall to discern. No one will think of denying that the excessive use of spirituous liquors as a beverage, is an unmixed evil; a vice without a single redeeming feature ; an offence without ex- cuse and without palliation.

Thus far all reasoning persons must ac- company the advocates of prohibition. But when those advocates take the next step, and demand that the use and manufacture and sale of suck: ‘iqnors shall be absolutely forbidddn by law, a new element is at once introduced into the question —that of prac- ticability—and the subject of prohibition out of the domain of pure ethics into that of sober, matter-of-fact, every- day business ; and they whe do not favor this kind of legislation are entitled to ask those wh do to show the beneficial effects of prohibitory laws, and to demonstrate, if possible, the success of the kind of legisla- tion upon which they so strongly insist. The opponents of prohbibitory legislation say, with entire reason, that.an a priori argument has an application to a case of this sort ; that noone is competent to say in advance what the effect of such a law will be, and that the only valid argument that can be used to convert the opponents of prohibition must be derived from actual experience and observation in some com- wunity where such alaw has had a fair trial.

There is, in the United States, such a place. In the State of Maine the advo- cates of prohibition hare been given every possible assistance by the Legislature for over thirty years to suppress the liquor traffic. Civil and penal statutes have been enacted, and carried out as. thoroughly as human instrumentalities would permit, and now it is fully time to inquire into the results, with a view of ascertaining, in the

ness, whether this legislation, extending over a third of a century and embracing an entire generation, has succeeded in destroy- ing the liquor traffie in that State and in crushing out the evil of intoxication. If it has not prehibitory legislatiun caanot be claimed to be aa success, for certainly no other law whieh had been tried for more than thirty years without accomplishing its purpose could be called anything but a failure.

It is not enough to say, if it is said, that there is less drunkenness in Maine now than there was thirty years ago. That is true of the whole United States, whether in the cities or inthe country. Habits have changed materially im that respect,

°TY | and Maine cannot be declared an exception.

The question is: Is the State of Maine pre-eminently notable for sobriety and ab- stinence from intoxicants? and this ques- tion must, it is feared, be answered in the ve. eases 2 home has taken the place of drinking abroad and in public; and it is asserted as a fact, and a very solemn fact, too, that the keeping of liquor in the house has led the sex which would not drink in a saloon or at a public bar into private indul- gence, and has actually made only too fre- quent that most horrible uf all created things, a drunken woman. Again. the secreting of intoxicants at home has led to
