"ACILIA,"

THE KING OF SPAIN AND THE

POPE.

HIS MAJESTY'S MARRIAGE,

INTERESTING LETTERS.

When the young King of Spain resolved to ask for the hand of Princess Esa, says the Catholic Times, ha wrote an autograph letter to the Holy Father informing him of his inten- tion. King Alfonso wrote —

Holy Father-The time having arrived at which from motives which cannot escape your Boliness's exalted wisdom, i must thlak of choosing a wife, my heart has felt an irresisti ble incliantion towards a young Princess of royal lineage who, from her attractive natural gifts and the personal virtues by which she is Adorned will, I believe, be a faithful companion to me in life and in every way worthy to`share with me the throne that my illustrious and ominent predecessors have occupied.

The excellent lady to whom I refer la her. Royal Highness the Princess Victoria Eugenia, of Battenborg, daughter of Prince Henry and of her Royal Highness the Princess Beatrice, and granddaughter of the late Queen Victoria 1. of England, Empress of India.

Born outside the Catholle fold, she could not be instructed in the mysteries and the precepts of the true faith, but very soon her conversion will be a fact, and very soon on! Holy Mother the Catholic, Apostolic, and Roman Church will count another daughter amongst her children. A faithful and loving daughter, because it is not her affection for me, much less violent compulsion or a reason of State, that causes ber to abandon error; she is led chiefly by a súre, instinct springing from the heart and decided strength of will, to give effect to such a happy decision.

For this important not preparation is being made by my promised brids, where entrance into the bosom of the Church is formally and of necessity to precede the solemn and official suit for her hand,

To bring the projected union to pass I can count upon the good will of my august and be loved mother the Queen Dona Maria Christina ofustria, to whose vigilance and good exam ple I owe the happiness of bejpg In works, words and wishes as Catholic as a King of Catholic pain should be; I can also count upon the explicit approval of the noble mother of my fiancee and I likewise can count upon the adhesion of my people who sco in their future Queen a pledge of peace and prosperity for time to come.

All that is wanting to'us now is your Holi news's blessing, which is the blessing of God; a blessing of our good intentions; a blessing for me who solicit it with all the fervour of a Christian soul that looks to its salvation in all' the vicissitudes of life.

Deign, then; your Holiness, to grant it to me, confident that I shall receive it as a gift that comes from Heaven for the happiness of what ever shall always try, as Į shäll, to be woriby પર્યાં.

I am, Holy Father, Your humble and devoted son,

ALFONSO, The Holy Father's reply was as follows:- Beloved Son,-Your Majesty's confidential leller, which has been delivered to me to-day by your kind-hearted ambassador, written to

redecting the Catholic and Alially devoted inform me of your approaching matṛinga with Princess Eugenia of Battenberg, and so nobly

sentiments of your Majesty towards the Apostolic See, has afforded me special comfort and joy.

Although of those sentiments, deeply rooted in your Majesty's heart, I have already had many and abundant priols, I rejoice at this new testimony given in extraordinary cir Cumbiances, To sea that your Majesty freely opens your soul to me as a ton to i father is a still greater consulation, and who have always fell for your Majesty a great and entirely paternal affection, am pleased to be able to assure you that I am over and on all occasions ready to help and favour you in all the vicissitudes of life.

Will extreme gratification, then, do 1 bserve that your Majesty, being about to contract matrimony, has understood the gravity and importance of so vital an act, upon which your happiness will depend and which will be cinsely associated with the welfare of [569 the Spanish nation. As your Majesty bas not chosen a Princess born and educated in the Catholic Faith, undoubtedly tha conversion of your future consort to the Catho lic religion assumes a high degree of importance which cannot be ignored and which your Ma jesty's latter shows that you rightly appreciate.

Your Majesty intimates to me that the Prio cess Victoria Eugenia of Battenberg is about, to embrace the true Faith, moved thereto not by exceptional circumstances but by a proper understanding and a firm will, that the conversion will be an accomplisted will, assuring ma fict before the trquest

officially made. All this inspires the hope that your Majesty's choice will be bountifully blessed by with the hearty God and that it will meet approval of your Majesty's Catholic subjects whose dearest religibus sentiments will, ba satisfied as well as the fervans of the Catholics of the world, entirely in accord with the special interests of the Catholic King.

Captain Schülke, having arrived from the above Ports, Consignees of Cargo are hereby requested to send in their Bills of Lading for countersignature by the Undersigned and to take immediate delivery of their goods from alongside.

Optional Cargo will be forwarded unless notice to the contrary be given before TO-DAY.

Any Cargo impeding her discharge will be landed into the hazardous and/or extra hazard- nus Godowns of the Hongkong and Kowloon Wharf and Godown Co., Limited, and stored at Consignees' risk and expense.

All Claims must be presented within ten days of the weimer's arrival here after which date they cannot be recognised.,

No Claims he admitted after the Goods have left the Godows, and all Goods remaining undelivered after the 231d instant, will be subject to rent.

All broken, chafed and damaged Goods are to be left in the Godowns, where they will be examined on the 23rd instant, at 3 F.M. No Fire Insurance has been effected.
