According to a Reuter telegram published in Thursday's papers,. King
Ferdinand, in a Speech from the Throne at the opening of the.Sobranje, has been boasting of his achievements. Ho gave orders to the Bulgarian Army to invade Serbia in order "• to [liberate our brethren, and establish the union of our nation." Backed by the Germans and Austrians, -they 'completely defeated, in less than two months, "-the perfidious :enemy " and .drove him out of his own territory. " They •then performed: something still more glorious. The- troops which two Great Towers—France and England, • to the disgrace of civilization- and of their own countries—had. sent against the 'tortured Bulgarian nation in order to maintain Serbian tyranny veer it, are ,chased out of Macedonia." For the present King =Ferdinand 1st:welcome to boast as much as he likes of his defeat of the French and British troops, but unless we are :greatly mistaken he will some day deeply rue his mendacious insolence.
