in 1790. and as sooo as he was
capable cf serving, jeoined the Au
Irian Army, in wricb: after variaus
services he atuioed the rank of Lieu
tenant Colonel. It is asserted by no
other thin the ere at Napoleon himseli
that he lolicited from him the place of
aid dectmp, and it was merely acci
dental that he did not obtain it. A
very different fortane had in that case
awaited him." The post of aid, though
it was sometimes step t the further
favors of the French sovereign, gen
erally " laid on the shelf its unlucky
occupaot.
Luckily Tor Leopold there was too
great crowd of German princes who
where also applicants for fliers of the
tame character, to be all gratified by
the household arraoremcnts f th-
Tuileries. lie therefore remained
somewhat in obscurity until 1814,
when he followed the allied sovereign
1 1 London. 1 be events that followed
this visit were of a different character.
The poor German prince, whose oe-
cciiueaiuJ alraej j)iaaioo.4hrnsy4
for his subsistence soon became " the
cynosure" of British eyes. The Prin
cess Charlotte was 18 years of age,

mind and a most -rouble heart, - The
Prince met her 4iVi good tocitty?
and their acq laintance toon termina

was at this very time destined to be
the wife of the heredi ary Prince of
Oranqe. This personage wai a great

the preliminaries to the marriage. It
is said that when one of the English
ministry called upon her to arrange
some of the details of the settlement,
she remarked there was a want of lib

to her, chat she was " heiress to the
