the first triumph of Bismarck’s policy secured. The Danish Duchies were
stolen by Prussia, and, as my old friend M. de Massignac had foreseen,
the foundations were laid of a navy which up to that time had been a
dream in Cloudcuckooland. For the shameful abandonment of Denmark we are
now, fifty years later, paying the just penalty.

divide the day of 24 hours into 12 periods, each of which had its sign,
something like the sign of the Zodiac.

Alexander.
[20] The craze for absolute uniformity was exemplified in the Kurros
(snub-nosed) Grenadier Regiment of the Emperor Paul. Not only was every
nose in the regiment tip-tilted, but the meter-like brass shakos of
the old pattern seen in Hogarth’s pictures—“The March to Finchley,”
for example—each has a bullet-hole exactly in the same place. This
was to commemorate an attempt on the Tsar’s life. The bullet missed
him, but found its billet in the shako of one of his guards. Whether
the snub-noses and the shakos still exist I know not. They were very
conspicuous in my time.
