The Premier is replying thanking the Association for its cordial and courteous invitation, ami expressing regret that it is not possible at present for him to make the visit.
The policy of England hps beon tho same for tho last three centuries. In order to triumph King Edward has only to obey tho voice of an hereditary instinct. Germany does not know yet what politics are, and belioves seriously that the whole art of.'diplomacv consists in a paraphrase of the words of Charles VIII.: "Give, us what wo want or mind our batteries.
