Frederick, in fact, had an extremely low regard for his son’s mental equipment and ability, and it is frankly set forth in a letter written to Bismarck, September 28, 1886, from Porto- fino, Italy, and which has just been made public. | William's principal defects at | that time, as his father saw them, were “his habit of making snap judgments in a manner tending to xageration,” lack of “actual learn- ing’ which was “still full of gaps,” and “an inclination to conceit.” Here is the text of the letter: | “My son, Prince Wilhelm, has | without my previous knowledge ex- pressed the wish to His Majesty | (Wilhelm I; Frederick then was still the crown prince) to becom» better acquainted with the opera- tions of our ministers during the coming winter, and I learn that iv is intended to employ him in the Foreign Office. “Inasmuch as I have received m official communication to that ef- | fect, I am compelled to turn to | you in confidence to learn what ‘heifers donated to the cause by the stockmen of the west and which will be clasified, judged and sold in cat | load lots, will contribute approximate- ly $150,000 to the great work ot| mercy. At the same time Denver will be the mecca for a host of organiza. tions whose interests lie in the per-| petuation of the livestock industry and the many problems it presents on the eve of the great reconstcuc- | tion period.

For in view of the import- ance of the tasks to be entrusted to the prince, I consider it impera- tive that he shall first of all thore- ly learn the internal conditions of his own land and have the feel- ing that he understands them thore- ly before he, with his habit of mak- ing snap judgments tending to ex- aggeration, busies himself with politics. “His actual learning is still full of gaps, and at the same time he lacks the proper foundation, and for this reason it is absolutely nec- | essary that his education be im- proved and completed. If he coula be assigned to the office of a ci- vilian advisory official, and if he could later be connected with, or even be given a post in one of the administrative ministries, it would serve this purpose. But, in view of the immaturity as well of the in- experience of my eldest son, and also of his inclination to conceit, I am compelled to declare that it 1n absolutely dangerous to bring him into touch with questions of for- eign _ poli at this time.

Exportation of printed music from Italy is so great, and the opportunity for clever spies to utilize it asa means of conveying information to the enemy so unlimited, that Italy organized an entirely separate cen- sorship for surveillance of all expor- tations of music, The work was car- ried on in three Italian cities, that at Milan censoring all music and musi- {cal manuscripts destined for Switz- erland; that at Genoa performing the same functions .for the American market, and that at Bologna having the censorship of music for all the ‘ other neutral countries.
