Excerpt from Berlin Society The Emperor William is, without contradic tion, the most popular prince among his people in our time. Apart from his military successes, he is a man very amiable, very benevolent in appear ance, very paternal in his kindness. Without being of remarkable intelligence, he has quick perceptions, and possesses the talent of discover ing people capable of becoming useful to him, of pushing them forward and supporting them in the face of all opposition. He has no vanity, dis appears when it becomes necessary, efi'aces him self behind his Chancellor, and whatever he may suffer from the latter's imperious will, he has too much dignity to allow the world to perceive it.
