Nev Enterprise is for the following muat be takea with grains of doubt when it is remembered that American matrons and maidens are not in the habit of compromising their reputation even with royalty It any such letters are in existence they are most likely the productions of We do not know that the following story in relation to the Grand Duke Alexis and his late tour in the United States has ever been published It was related by the Grand Duke himself while in Japan to a gentleman whose name were it mentioned would be fam- to the most of our readers No sooner had the Grand Duke ded in the United States than he was flooded with all sorts of letters from all sorts of people on all sorts of subjects Embraced in the epistolary hurricane were hundreds perhaps thousands of letters from the tion of impertinence and dishonesty and many more the prompting of grant and criminal immodesty All classes seemed to participate in this folly without reputation and with nothing to lose as well as ladies of wealth and respectability prepared to sacrifice everything Many of those ters were glanced over merely and but a large number were with pardonable vanity in the young Grand Duke retained for future ex- amination after he had finished his els These letters embraced in no Jess than five packages were intrusted to an orderly for conveyance to St Petersburg while the Grand Duke continued his journey eastward In due time Alexis received a letter from his august father announcing among other matters that four sealed packages hal been re- from him but the messenger was missing Alexis at once surmised that one of the packages had been stolen by the orderly whose purpose was to make them public Unwilling to have the reputation of many ladies of ity thus compromised through his lessness Alexis promptly telegraphed to the Emperor to arrest the orderly at any cost and seize the missing letters All the police appliances of the Russian Empire were invoked bat the orderly could not be found within the vast inions of the Czar He was at length discovered in a small town m Belgium where he was serenely engaged in king up the letters in an attractive ume of 300 or 400 pages and the book was on the point of being issued for the fellow had made good use of his time No time was to be lost But what was to be Russia had no extradition treaty with Belgium and the Belgian authorities although willing to accommodate the Czar did not see bow the publication could be suppressed Czar threatened to invade Belgium at j once with a powerful army utterly reckless of the peace of Europe unless the culprit was surrendered Alarmed at this extraordinary threat the King set about finding some pre- text upon which the orderly might be arrested It was finally ascertained that he was printing his book without the usual license and he was promptly ken into custody With his unfinished volume and stolen letters he was hurried across the Belgium line into Prussia where the agents of the Russian ment were ready to receive him He was soon in St Petersburg and in twenty-four hours after was on his way to Siberia under sentence of a life servitude in the mines The next letter from the Emperor informed Alexis that his missing letters partially printed had been recovered and the young man was admonished to be a little more careful of his love missives in the future Had these letters been published a found flutter would have been created among the fairest if not the best of the great cities of the East and the ume would have met of course with a prodigious sale The erring ones will appreciate their narrow escape when they learn that they were saved through the menace of a general European war and the lesson should serve them through life ESTATE TRANSFERS BY TELEGRAPH
