The life of Bismarck, private and political;. 1847,Herr Otto von Bismarck celebrated his wedding at Keinfeld, inPomerania, with Fraulein Johanna von Putkammer, and then en-tered upon a journey with his youthful wife by way of Dresden,Prague, Vienna, and Salzburg, to Italy, meeting his sovereign,Frederick William IV., at Venice, and finally, returning throughSwitzerland and the Ehine-Province, fixed his residence at theancient hearth of his ancestors at Schonhausen. It was a short but happy time of rest, passed in rural retire-ment.
