The Zaiser is clea.c1 Elope ror William of Germany d ies ou Friday morning, A BERLIN DESPATCH STATES THAT EMPEROR WILLIAM DIED ON FRIDAY MORNING. TILE LATE EMPEROR. The late Emperor, bad he survived till the 22nd inst.,would have attained his 91st year, having been born on March 22nd, 1797, at a moment when ' the French revolution had begun to triumph over its many enemies, in- cluding the King of Prussia, The hmperor's grandfather, Frederick Wm. II., nephew of Frederick the Great, was still nix the throne, but died soon after, leaving his kingdom to the Emperor's father, Frederick William III. The first nine years of William's life were among his hap- piest. His mother, the beautiful and accomplished Queen Louise, daughter of the Duke of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, took personal charge of the lad's .education. DAYS OF SORROW. The year 180G,with its cruel changes, destroyed this lovely idyl. Through ";is vacillating course in dealing with the Emperor Napoleon, King Frede- rick William found himself suddenly isolated from the rest of Europe and a prey to the conqueror. The battles of Jena, Auerstadt and Saalfeld de- cided the fate of his kingdom, from. which Napoleon sliced off 27,000 square miles with a population of 5,- .000,000 souls. On no one did this blow fall more heavil y than on the Queen. Her flight after the Prussian defeats was attended with much mis- ery and suffering, and her poignant sorrow failed not to awaken a respon- sive echo in her children's hearts. Nor were her exhortations unheeded. "Children," cried the great-hearted, patriotic woman, "upon•you will tall the duty some day of retrieving this terrible disaster to our beloved coun- try. Be men, and let not the de- • generacy of the present day make you • its victims. Be the worthy successors of the great Frederick, and if it is be- yond your power to re-establish the country's independence die in defence of her honor as did Prince Louis Earnest at the battle of Saalfeld." William first " smelled powder" in thel campaigns of 1813 and 1815 against France. In 1840 he was ap- ointed Governor of Pomerania, and ;held that post until the revolution of 1848 broke out, when he sought re- fuge in England. In May, 1848, he was elected . a member of the Con- stituent Assembly, returned to Berlin and took his seat in that body June .8th, 1848. He was made Commader- rin-Chief of the Prussian Army acting against the revolutionary forces of Baden•in June, 1849, and when his brother's mind gave way in 1858 Prince William, as he was then term• ed, was created Regent, immediately dismissed the aristocratic party and adopted a liberal policy. 1.ix° or Pars8LA.` a rederick William 1``.,his brother, dying without issue Jan. 2nd,1861, he succeeded to the throne under ins ='- title of William I., placing tha crown on his own head at Konigsberg, Oct. 18th, at the same time emphatically asserting the doctrine of the " right diyine of kings." Immediately upon his accession to the throne he began a contest with the Chamber of Deputies, which became more and more critical until after Count Bismarck-Schoen- Eausei had been appointed Prime Minister In 1682t a civil war threaten- ing to convvlse the country. But the aggressive:war ou Denmark, in which . Prussia and Austria were jointly en- gaged, serued to divert the attention of the people from internal troubles, and since the close of that war the firm attitude of the sovereign has en- deared him to his loyal subjects and made him dreaded by his enemies. But bis youthfnl training for the career, of arms prompted him to pre. pare to draw tbe sword and assert Prussia's supremacy. Military pre- parations were made on a large scale, and early in 1866 his trusted lieuten• ants pronounced the scheme ripe for execution. A n alliance was concluded •with Italy, an ultimatum sent to the smaller States irfNorthern Germany, war was. declared against Austria June 17th, 1866, and headed by King and Royal Princes a large army was •setin motion and the bloody' battle of Sadowa compelled Austria to bend to the dust and conclude a humiliating peace. In this campaign the merits of the " needle gnu" or breech loader were first fairly tested and the re - mills achieved caused consternation throughout the military world, and set the powers busy at work upon the reorganization of armies. The King of Prussia became the head of the North German Confederation in j867, ,comprising twenty-two States and re- presenting a population of about 30,- 000,000 souls. The part played by King William in the war known as the Franco-Prussian war of 1870-71 is a matter of history, and kis not necessary to touch upon it at present, but the result attained was the war- -rior-king's dream -a UnitedGermany. EMPEROR OF GERMANY. On January 18th, 1871, King William of Prussia was proclaimed Emperor of Germany within the palace of the French Kings of Ver- sailles, in the historical Hall of Mirrors, and surrounded by the stern soldiers composing the army he had led in triumph to the capital of France. That moment was probably the most gratifying point of Emperor William's career,but the grim warrior bore the honors showered upon him with kingly dignity and true soldierly bearing. The meeting of the Emperors of Germany, Russia and Austria took place at Berlin in the autumn of 1872. In October of that year the Emperor William gave a decision adverse to England on tbe San Juan boundary question, submitted to his arbitration by the British and Ameri- can Governments. Ile visited the Czar at St, Petersburg in April, 1873, _7ad-in-October of the same year .v_isit- ed the Emperor of Austria at Vienna, The correspondence between the Em- peror William and the Pope relative to the prosecution of the Church in Prussia was published at Berlin, Oct. 14th, 1863. Since then and within the last year or two, the Emperor has made his peace with His Hclinea,.. ATTEMPTS ON HIS Llr[i. Two attempts have been made to assassinate the F.m erer, OUP Nal 11th° lett' while ii€' wail diving in I3erlhn, A young Socialist named Emil Hoedel fired two shots at him from a revolver. but neither of them hit the mark, the Emperor standing up in his carriage and calmly asking if the shots were fired at him. Hoedel was eventually executed. The second attempt was on June 2nd, 1878. His Majebty was driving in Unter den Linden, when two shots were fired from the window of a house, wound- ing him in several places. The would- be assassin was a Dr Nobling, who, after attempting to commit suicide, was secured by the crowd,removed tb the hospital and subsequently died there from the effects of the wound he had inflicted upon himself, Wil- liam I. married June llth, 1829, the Princess Augusta,daughter of Charles Frederick, Grand Duke of Weimar. They have two children — Prince Frederick William, born Qct. 18th, 1831, and the Princess Louise Mary, Grand Duchess of Baden, born Dec. 3td, 1838. Emperor William did nr t smoke or take snuff. Neither did he -wear spectacles. When reading and writ- ing ha used an eye -glass, although he never wished to admit that his sight was growing weak. His Majesty, up to a short time since, slept as soundly as the healthiest of youths, and never took a rest during the course of the day. He is survived by the Empress, who as a Princess of Weimar. remold- bers the glorious epoch when the genius of Goethe illuminated that little capital.

It insures aetivity, certainty•, and uni- formity of effect. Ayer's Pills contain Tin metallic or mineral substance, but the virtues of vegetable 8f:medies in skillful combination."
