"His excellency would have pleasure in seeing you take up the ps, ps, ps the thing." "He told you so?" "Ask the governor if he did not heard it like myself."
You say you adore Truth, and you ask a brother if he possess Truth, while you hide the fact that you have already sold him!" During Benedetto's speech, the Minister's friend himself an Excellency, but of lower rank had raised his head from the couch at last. He seemed to be only now beginning to consider the man and what he was saying worthy of attention.
"How fond these Germans are of titles," thought I. Remembering that in Vienna every one is "his grace," I thought it might be Bavarian politeness to call every one his excellency. "You have not been presented, I believe?" "No," said I; "but I hope to take an early opportunity of paying 'mes homages' to his majesty."
"We hesitated to lay this declaration earlier before Your Excellency, because we were afraid that as long as the advantage was on our side, and our Army had in their occupation positions of defence far into the British Colonies, such a declaration would have hurt the feelings of the English nation; but now that the prestige of the British Empire may be considered to be restored, through the capture of one of our armies, and we are compelled by this to sacrifice other positions which our armies occupied, this difficulty is removed, and we can no longer hesitate to tell you, in the face of the whole civilized world, why we are fighting, and on what conditions we are prepared to make peace."

Madame had a grateful thought for the governor, and she regretted that she could not express it aloud. He had changed the current from a dangerous channel.
'We trust that the efforts of our worthy superintendent towards promoting our welfare under trying circumstances will be appreciated by Your Excellency. We are happy to state that the spirit of loyalty is daily increasing in this camp, and that the majority of the male refugees have taken the oath of allegiance. Mr.

A deputation, consisting of more than nine hundred persons, called at Government House to present one of these manifestations of popular sentiment.
The general winked, and replied: "Elise Isembourg declares that he is, and that he gave her the document." "He, of course, denies it?" "He knows nothing as yet," said His Excellency. "I have issued orders for his arrest to-day, and have given instructions for the court martial to be held here, in Petrograd." The evil monk laughed gleefully. "Ah! I see," he remarked.
