From the St. James Gazette, London, ‘We were ourselves, once upon a time, exceeding- ly unkind to tne prince consort, and we ought to Temember this when we criticise our neighbors.

Two things are ‘singular in the real or supposed Ls the empress arse that she should be upbreiaca for being too English, whereas the most vutonic Of princesses could scarcely be more entirely Ger- man in blood, She has had, we may say, in her genealogy three English-born and English-feeling ancestors; her great-grandfather, George II (ius first of " our Hanoverian kings who had the least pretension to be fish), her grandfather, the Duke of Kent, the son Of German mother; the queen, tte daughter ofa German mother, while the Leg hed herself is the daughter of a German father. It would be dif ficult to find an affiliation less mixed, Her in| rial majesty has spoken German from her cradle; she has been surrounded by German servants and governesses, On our side, were it not for tbe pres- ent complete feat f and warm and general sentiment of home regard and possession which the royal family enjoy among us, it might easily be that we should upbraid the house of Guelpi with being too German, Granting the royal neces- sity for a foreign consort, which it seems impossi- bie vo surmount, no less “foreign consort than the empress 1s could have been imagined. To be sure, ‘hat has been no less a necessity In Germany than, anywhere else in the worid. German princesses have always abounded for all the purposes of state, ‘SUll a princess of Great Brivain and Ireland (not say a princess royal) differs in some degree from. @ Mecklenburg or a Hesse, ‘Then there is the odious insinuation that the empress has introduced a strain of unhealthiness among the rovust Hohenzollerns. Whence this sistent and prevailing slander comes it is very Bara Ww say.
