A good instance of a neat #plomatierejoinder in embodied in story regarding Cant Herbert Bismarck on the occasion of the German Ein 'peror's visit to Rome hat year. It appears that át thé railway station Count Herbert, who is not renowned for the suavity of his› manners, pushed rudely against an Italian dignitary who was watching the proceedings. The dignitary was greatly incensed, and remonstrated very forcibly against suck-unceroïncalous treatment, whereupon Count Herbert turned rand haughrity and said, “I don't think you know who I am. I am Conat Herbert: Kismarak." "That," replied the Cislian, bowing politely. "as an excuse le insufficient, but as an explana tion it is ample.”
