KAISER AS COPYIST

PAF.EKAS CORDIALLY INVITED Mr Gerard says that in the private departments in the castle at Posen he noticed a saddle on a sort of elevated stool in front of a desk, and was told by the guide that the Emperor when working always sits in the saddle. We question whether this is a habit of the Kaiser's; it has never been mentioned before. It is more probably an imitation, such as the Huns are inveterately give nto Among Pitt relics at Walmer Castle there used to be shown just such a seat on which he-sat in the saddle at work. The great Minister found this was convenient when he was Warden of the Cinque Ports and keeping guard, with consuming energy against the foe who dreamed of invading England.
