The accession of Prince Otho to the throne of Greece

seems to be somewhat doubtful, after all that has passed on the subject.. One reason assigned for the selection of the Bavarian Prince is said to be the father's wealth ; which, it would nosy appear, he is by no means disposed to throw awayan so hazardous a speculation. lf, therefore, the embryo King cannot contrive to raise funds by way of loan for his new establishment--his intended subjects being far more likely to take from him than to give to him—them is a fair chance of the whole scheme perishing. If the Prince do go, it is understood that Count D'Armensperg will go with him to look after him—to act the King until the Prince himself is old enough be, take the character.
