A silly business on all sides. The surgeon, who attended us both, loudly admired our mutual delicacy in sparing arteries and vital organs: but a bullet cuts a rougher pathway than the neat steel blade, and I was prostrate when the prince came to press my hand on his departure for his quarters at Laibach.
Croatia and Carniola, like Bosnia, Herzegovina, and the previously independent Montenegro had already combined with Serbia to form a great Jugo-Slav kingdom stretching from north of Laibach to the south of Monastir, and from the Adriatic to the Danube.
To P. T. Anthony Slomshek, Prince Bishop of Laibach. Long Island, State of New-York, June 13th 1859. Reverend Bishop!
The Laibach river rises twice from the limestone rock, and is twice again swallowed up by the earth before it makes its final appearance and is lost in the Save. The Zirknitz See or Lake is a mass of water entirely filled and emptied by subterraneous sources, and its natural history, though singular, has in it nothing of either prodigy, mystery, or wonder.
After my having searched two years in the library of the monastery, I became Professor of Biblical Literature in Clagenfurt, and in that city I became acquainted with you, you having been there Spiritual Adviser of Students of Divinity. During the ten years of my Professorship I had opportunity to examine many points, which I would never have had opportunity to examine in the Diocese of Laibach.
But the Neapolitans were not satisfied with any vague promise of a constitution, and before allowing their king to depart for Laibach, held him pledged to the observance of an impossible condition, the maintenance of the Spanish constitution of 1812.
As deputy Klofac put it at a meeting in Laibach on August 15: "Henceforward the Czechs will refuse to hold any negotiations with Vienna, with whom any compromise is now out of the question.
In the evening a porter brought her trunk, and at this she seemed touched but not repentant. Leuzica supped with me and again shared my couch. The count left Trieste at day-break. As soon as I was sure that he was gone, I took a carriage and escorted the fair Leuzica two stages on her way to Laibach. We dined together, and I left her in the care of a friend of hers.
After my having been six years secular priest of the diocese of Laibach, I entered the Benedictine Order of the Monastery of Saint Paul in Carinthia, for the purpose of obtaining more time and opportunity in that order which furnishes learned professors, than in my native country for a continuation of my investigations for the peace of nations.
The war may stay with us like a schoolboy caller, because it does not know how to go. The Italians said as much to me. "Suppose we get to Innsbruck and Laibach and Trieste," they said, "it isn't an end!" Lord Northcliffe, I am told, came away from Italy with the conviction that the war would last six years. There is the clearest evidence that nearly everyone is anxious to get out of the war now.
