Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Attaché in Madrid, or Sketches of the Court of Isabella II: Translated From the German

The translator of the following pages has attempted nothing more than to render the original German textninto English. The work, if we may judge from its general aspect and strue ture, was not at first intended for publication, and when it was finally prepared for that object, it underwent but slight modification. At all events, what was doubtless its original form - that of a series of rapid, but sincere and earnest notes, made by a young German diplomate in the whirl of fashion, and amid, the agitations of political and social revolution at _madrid, during the recent changes there - was still preserved, and-a multitude of fashionable phrases, chiefly French, were permitted to stand. These the translator has not deemed it well to alter, as they are generally current among intelligent readers of all countries, and more truly express the ideas of the writer than any translation could do.
