The Empress Frederick of Germany left Paris this morning. No unpleasant feature marked her departure. The gravity of the situation, however, can be judged from the fact that, acting under advice from high quarters, the Empress changed her toute for fear of being insulted. It was publicly announced yesterday evening that the Empress Frederick intended to leave for Calais at 11.30 a.m., but she left two hours earlier and was driven rapidly to the Gare du Nord, where she entered the train for Boulogne. The Empress, however, will not embark for England at that port, but will proceed from there to Calais, where the royal yacht is awaiting ber. In spite of the precautions several hundred people were gathered about the Gare du Nord and were civil and quiet, the majority of the men taking off their hats as the Empress passed. There were no insulting cries of any description. Empress Frederick and party arrived at the depot in three landaus. Police officials had taken every precaution to protect the Empress, a body of 500 policemen belag at the depot. The Empress was accompanied by the whole staff of the German Embassy and Count von Munster.

Quite a sensation was caused by the report of a quarrel between the Queen and Prince of Wales at Portsmouth yesterday. It appears that the Prince head, through the Foreign Office alarming accounts of the position of ex-Empress Frederick in Paris. He decided to go and bring her away and wired bis sister to leave immediately if she could not wait for him. He also telegraphed to the Queen. When he joined the Queen at Portsmouth her majesty was greatly excited, and was heard to say to him: "What do you say? Turn my daughter out of Paris?" The Prince replied in a low tone, but the Queen, visibly enraged, repeated that it was impossible that any insult could be offered her daughter in Paris. She blamed the
Prince for his injudicious coarse and threatened
to countermand his telegram. He protested earnesify and finally, the Queen giving ta, et another ciphertelegram to ex-Empress Frederick, expressing his own and Queen's wishes.

An interesting question is, Does the Pope desire the establishment of a republic? He is waiting, but expects nothing from the monarchy. Many Catholics hope that the republic will come sooner or later and that it will grant liberty to the Holy See. The monarchy is condemned by its very existence to prevent any solution favorableto the Pope. The settled conviction in ecclesiastical
