THE DUCHY OF BRUNSWICK TO BE SWAL
LOWED UP BY PRUSSIA.
Tlie name of Brunswick, which for
nearly one thousand years lias played
so conspicuous apart in the history of
Europe, is about to disappear from
the lust of independent States, and.to
be incorporated with Prussia, which
has already swallowed up Nassau,
Hesse, Holstein and other States
whose ancient greatness and impor
tance have departed. AV hat is known
as the Duchy of Brunswick was form
erly a powerful State.
tinder Henry the Lion, it entered
upon the terrible struggle which shook ■
the German Empire to its foundations j
in the time of Fredrick the Second. 1
and which gave rise to the 'long and |
bloody conflict between the Guelphs
and Ghibellines. Its princes have al
ways borne conspicuous parts in the
history of G rmany. After the sepa
ration of Brunswick-Lun eburg from
Brunswick-AVolfen buthel —the former
of which, in 1723, became an appen
dage of the British crown—the latter
was ruled by Dukes noted for their
military talents and their singular ec
centricities.
One of them was a favorite general
of Fredrick the Great, and was many
years afterward signally defeated by
Napoleon at the buttle of Jena, where
he lost his army, and after horrible
sufferings, his life. His son was the
heroic leader of the Geman rising
against Napoleon in 1809, and fell
gallently, six years afterward, at Quar
tre-Bras.
The next Duke Charles, was igno
miniously driven from his principality
in 1830, and has since led a roving
life, being noted as a collector of cost
ly diamonds. His brother, William I,
the present Duke, is a childless old
man, of misanthropic habits. He
was born on April 25, 1806, being the
second son of Duke Fredrick William,
of Brunswick, and the Princess Maria,
of Baden. On the flight of his brother
in 1830, he undertook the government
of the Duchy provisionally, and finally
ascended the Ducal throne, on April
25,1831. ,
Duke William wished to bequeath
the crown of Brunswick to the son of
Ex-King George of Hanover, and af
terward to the Duke of Saxe-Coburg,
whose heir is Prince Arthur of England
ko that Brunswick might remain in the
bands of the Guelph family. The
Prussian Government, however, refus
ed to sanction this arrangement, and
another was made by which the Duke
consented to abdicate in the course of
a few months, when 13runswick will be
incorporated with Prussia.
The Duchy of Brunswick, as at pres
ent constituted, is situated in the
northwestern part of Germany, and it
formed the twelfth State of the Ger
manic Confederation as it existed pre
vious to the war of 1866, being requir
ed to furnish a quote of 2,096 men
for the federal army. Present, its ar
my. on a war footing, consists of 4,857
infantry and cavalry, 12 guns, and 502
artillerymen. The area of the duchy
is 2425 square miles, and its popula
tion 304,401. The principal city and
capital of the duchy is situated 35
miles southeast of Hanover.
It has a population of 51,000 and
contains many objects of historical in
terest.
