There has been a good deal of angry feeling excited
in Prussia against Austria by the Hanoverian dinner to celebrate the King of Danover's silver wedding,—many of the Hanoverians present having had Austrian passports. The King anticipated his return to Hanover " as a free King." " His ancestors had been compelled to leave the country, but found upon their return a larger Guelphic kingdom." He hoped as much for himself. The Austrian official .journal, the Abendpost, denies that the Austrian Government had any knowledge how the Austrian passports,—many of which were old,—were obtained by the Hanoverian exiles. And Baron Beust ,positively answers for the accuracy of the statement in the Abend- post. Perhaps it was a mere blunder. But these are the sort of blunders which, when they are multiplied, bring about revolu- tions or wars.
