12 SEPTEMBER 1891, Page 1

A great deal has been said of the cordial reception

given this week in Munich to the German Emperor, but it does not amount to much. The Bavarians do not like the Prussians, Hohenzollerns included; they detest the cruel German dis- cipline, and they want to retain all the Home-rule they can. They are, however, fully sensible of the protection and pres- tige which the Empire secures to all Germans, and are willing to submit to all sacrifices, even that of being expended a little too liberally in the field. The cordiality of the Hun- garians displayed at the meeting of the Emperors at the Austro-Hungarian raancetivres, ending on Monday, is more important. The Hungarians were supposed to be less pleased with the Triple Alliance than the Austrians ; but they now see in the German Army their buttress against the Slay. At a State luncheon at GOffritz on September 6th, the aged Arch- duke Albrecht warmly expressed his sentiments in favour of the German Army, and the Emperor William replied that it gave him " true pleasure to stay among brave Austro-Hungarian troops." The Chancellors, General von Caprivi and Count Kalnoky, accompanied the Emperors to the meeting, and it is supposed that the new incidents arising in the East were fully. discussed: What is more certain is that the two dynasties and their peoples are at present in warm accord.
