-- FRIEDRICH MAKES AN EXCURSION, NOT OF DIRECT SORT INTO THE.
CLEVE COUNTRIES.
King Friedrich did not quite keep his day at Wesel; indeed this 24th was not the first day, but the last of several, he had appointed to himself for finis to that Journey in the Cleve Countries; Journey rather complex to arrange.

He has several businesses ahead in those parts; and, as usual, will group them with good judgment, and thrift of time.

Not inspections merely, but amusements, meetings with friends, especially French friends: the question is, how to group them with skill, so that the necessary elements may converge at the right moment, and one shot kill three or four birds.

This is Friedrich's fine way, perceptible in all these Journeys.
