A German diplomat and novelist; born at Gardelegen, Oct. 10, 1830. He was for many years engaged in the consular and diplomatic service of Switzerland and Germany. His principal novels are: "Robert Ashton" (1877); "Liquidated" (1877); "Good Company" (1880); "The Flirt" (1894); "Silence" (1895). Some of his stories are perfect works of art; all of them mirror with rare fidelity life in the four quarters of the globe, as seen and studied by a man of very extensive travel.
