Excerpt from The Two Chancellors: Prince Gortchakof and Prince Bismarck During the last few years various highly interesting publications have revealed to the world many of the most hidden secrets of diplomacy. The historian is forced to collect these testimonies, and to extract from them their teachings; although conscience, as well as State reasons, cannot but condemn these much-to-be regretted revela tions, which compromise, in so striking a degree, every principle of authority, and every law of international relationship.
