KAISER AND HIS TENANT.

Some further details of the settlement of the dispute between the Emperor and his Cadinen tenant are contained in a telegram from Elbing published in Berlin a few weeks ago. The negotiations are said to have been conducted on behalf of the Monarch by the chairman and secretary of the West Prussian gChamber of Agriculture; while Herr Sohst, who refused to treat in person, was represented by his brother. This gentleman Was informed, at the instance of the Civil Cabinet, that the "Emperor regretted the insults he had passed upon Herr Sohst. and would not have made his remarks at the meeting of the German Agricultural Council if he had been properly informed." It was further proposed that the Civil Cabinet should write a letter to this effect, and that Herr Sohst should receive a title or decoration. The negotiator on the other side thereupon declared that the reparation offered would sufficiently rehabilitate his brother's character. Writing on this matter, the Berliner Tageblatt says: —"Herr Sohst and his affair would have had less interest from the German public if it had not, and unfortu with good reason, been convinced that, also with regard to weighty matters and the general sentiments of the people, theJEmperor for the most part receives only biased and incorrect information, dictated and incorrect information, dictated by caste and party interests." Other papers express themselves in a similar senae.
