WHO IS TO BE BLAME?

The Standard remarks it may be that the King of
Prussia and his Minister did. not seek war, but it is cer-
tain that they offered no concession to avert it. No
doubt the declaration of the Duke de Gramont was a pill
not easy to swallow, but it had been called forth by a
candidature which no French Government could possibly
accept but at the cost of a resignation of all influence
in Europe, and which the King and his Chancellor
were perfectly aware it could not accept save at that
cost. Under the circumstances, if they really had de-
sired the maintenance of peace they would have showed
some anxiety to satisfy the not unreasonable irritation of
France; and they might easily have found some expedient
—say in the mediation of foreign Powers—by which they
might have given that satisfaction without any apparent
I humiliation. But they would, according to their own
account, listen to nothing. They shut themselves up
behind the ridiculous contention that they could not in-
terfere. They treated the French ambassador after a
style unheard of in these later times, and being possibly
quite right have done their utmost to represent them-
selves as quite as wrong, at the least, as their antagonists.
That Prussia might have averted the war by concessions or
assurances, consistent with her own dignity,the Standard will
not pretend to say; but it is certainly clear that she made no
offer and that she refused all concession, and it becomes
but too evident that if France seized hold of the Hohen-
zollern candidature as a pretext for war, Prussia, which
was privy to that candidature, knowing that it would be
felt in France as a hostile act, was eager to accept the
challenge, and made no effort to preserve peace.

THE BRIDGE OF KEHL.

The bridge of Kehl no longer offers the amusing spec-
tacle it formerly presented. The sentinels who mounted
guard at each end of it are no longer in. ther places.
It was curious to watch them pacing up and down their
own share of the bridge. A line traced across showed the
precise spot which neither might pass ; and so the two
marched along—the one with the vivacity of the French-
man, the other with the placidity and phlegm which be-
long to the German. The sentinels often met in the
middle of the bridge ; the Frenchman looked at the Prus-
sian, and the Prussian looked at the Frenchman, and
each, without saying a word, retraced his steps. Indeed,
there is no example of these slaves to discipline having
ever offered each other a pinch of snuff. One evening last
year, says a French paper, the Prussian sentinel was sud-
denly heard calling, To arms !" The frightened by-
standers ran up and found that the French sentinel had
accidentally placed his foot beyond the line of demarcation,
and thus invaded Prussian territory.—Pall Mall Gazette.

THE WESLEYAN CONFERENCE.

The chapel committee review met at Burslem yesterday
morning under the presidency of Dr. Jobson. The report
which was read by the Rev. John Bedford, shewed that 360
cases had been before the committee, involving an outlay
of £220,724, being an increase of eleven chapels
and £18,838. This is the largest number of
cases ever sanctioned. During the year £228,256 has been
contributed, which was the largest sum ever raised.
£769,133 of debts have been paid off during the last six-
teen years. The Rev. Charles Prest moved the resolution
adopting the report, which contained a large number of
details, mostly satisfactory. The resolution was seconded
by Mr. Radmall, of London, and carried. The second
resolution was moved by George Knowles,
_Esq., of Bol-
ton, who regretted that several chapels had been built
irregularly, and he urged that all should conform to the
rule. This resolution was seconded by Dr. Rigg, and
supported by Mr. Robinson Kay, J.P. of Bury. The
latter spoke of having been one of the first who, with the
late Dr. Bunting, set on foot the present movement for
the reduction of chapel debts. The mayor of Gates-
head spoke of keeping the buildings within the estimated
cost. Resolutions referring to the importance of sustain-
ing the chapel fund by subscription from trust, making
better provision for poor and new places, and forming a
society for insuring chapels and other trust buildings,
was spoken to by Dr. Waddy, Mr. Pocock, the ex-presi-
dent, and others. Great satisfaction was expressed with
the work done by the chapel committee during the year,
and with the general prosperity of the department, which
showed that Methodism was doing a great work in the
country.

THE LATE SIR R. HARVEY.

An inquest was held yesterday upon the body of Sir
Robert Harvey at Crown Point, near Norwich, by the
county coroner. The jury returned a verdict of temporary
insanity. Evidence shewed that Sir Robert's family was
liable to insanity. The revolver was found at a short dis-
tance from the body. It was proved he was not rational
after the event. Youell, Lacon, and Company, of Yar-
mouth, will open a branch bank at Norwich in a few days.

THE PANIC IN THE CITY.

The Telegraph, speaking of the panic in the Money
Market, says --Enough has transpired to make it clear
that war and political complications would have effected
comparatively little harm, had it not been for elements of
mischief already in full play. If no extraneous sources of

trouble had been at work, the first consequence of the re-
cent war news would naturally have been a depreciation in
the value of those particular properties that were threat-
ened with material injury in the prcgress of the contest.

Something else than war must be invoked to explain the
precipitate and universal tumble which has lately befallen
even the safest stocks, and the cause is, unfortunately,
but too obvious. Had no war happened, we now know
that we should have witnessed a sharp reaction ere long,
simply as the result of over-speculation. Two months
ago, plenty of unemployed money, with revived enter-
prise, and prospects of peace, beguiled even the shrewdest;
and men who were neither shrewd nor rich—who
had no }Sliminess to speculate, because they had
neither the heads to use prosperity rightly nor the purse

to meet a reverse—" went in" with the old unconquerable
notion, that they were buying exactly at the right time,
and that every difference must be a profit. The game

required just two conditions of success : one, that the
movement should go on for some time in the direction
which a sanguine gambler desired ; the other, that he
should have the self-control to know when to back out.

The second of the two if that which is most ccmmonly
wanting ; and recent events have proved ho exception to

the rule. His calculations were, on the whole, excellent,
but they were spoiled by the cardinal blunder of making
no [allowance for the unforeseen—the very thing that
always happens ! So, when, on one very black Thurs-
day, about a fortnight ago, the unforeseen made its
appearance, there was first a pause, then a tremor, then—
the deluge.

IN RUSSIA AND AUSTRIA.

The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Eastern Budget
writing on the 15th inst. , says that the Russian Government
had not then declared itself on the Franco-Prussian were
conflict, but there was reason to believe that its sympathies
with Prussia. The semi-official Journal de St. Petersbourg,
which is usually extremely reticent, pleads strongly on
behalf of Prussia, and the Foreign Telegraphic Agency,
which is entirely, under the control of the government,
and whose head-quarters are at Berlin, withheld all
its telegrams on the subject from the private press,
so as to give the Journal de St. Petersbourg a tarst.
The Russian press got the first news of the crisis from
the French and German papers. The general feeling in
Russia has not hitherto been very favourable to Prussia
on account of ber aggrandising tendencies. The Journal
de St. Petersbourg, it must be added, has within the last
few days remarked that the Spaniards might elect Prince
Leopold king notwithstanding his withdrawal from the
candidature.

The Vienna correspondent of the same paper, writing a
day later, says that for the time being even the proclama-
tion of Papal Infallibility, which must lead to serious
conflicts in the Empire, has been thrown iuto the
shade by the interest excited by the war. The
sympathies of the several nationalities are rather with
France than with Prussia, even in the German provinces
where the events of 1866 are still fresh in the popular
memory. The Poles in Austria are neutral, and even
the Czechs are determined to stand aloof. The intern a
disputes between the several nationalities are forgotten
in the common object of securing peace, and Austria is at
least likely to be strong enough to mediate between the
adversaries.

THE HUNGARIAN PRESS ON THE WAR.
The Hungarian newspapers unanimously recommend
that Austria should remain neutral during the war. The
Pesther Lloyd says that politically, what Austria desires
most is the maintenance of the status quo in Germany ;
for if Prussia were thrown back into the position which
she occupied before 1866, there would be a danger of
Austria's policy again aiming at the acquisition
of influence in the Fasherland, whereas if Prus-
sia were victorious, and the whole of Germany
became subject to her, Austria would have a gigantic
military State on her frontier. Thus, whatever may be
the result of the war, it can only be disadvantageous to
Austria; and all her efforts should therefore be directed
to the localisation of the conflict and the restoration of
peace as soon as possible. Austria's real policy is neu-
trality, even if Denmark and Italy were to appear in the
field. She can only take an active part in the war

MARITIME LAW.

The following is the text of the declaration which was
agreed upon by the Powers assembled in Congress at Paris
on the 14th April, 1856 :
The Plenipotentiaries who signed the Treaty of Paris of
the 30th of March, 1856, assembled in Conference—Con-
sidering that maritime law, in time of war, has long been
the subject of deplorable disputes ; that the uncertainty of
the law and of the duties in such a matter gives rise to
differences of opinion between neutrals and belligerents
which may occasion serious difficulties, and even
conflicts ; that it is consequently advantageous to
establish a uniform doctrine on so important a point ;
that the Plenipotentiaries assembled in Congress at
Paris cannot better respond to the intentions by which
their Government are animated than by seeking to intro-
duce into international relations fixed principles in this
respect ; the above-mentioned Plenipotentiaries, being
duly authorised, resolved to concert among themselves
as to the means of attaining this object; and, having
come to an agreement, have adopted the following solemn
declaration :-1. Privateering is, and remains, abolished.
2. The neutral flag covers enemy's goods, with the excep-
tion of contraband of war. 3. Neutral goods, with the
exception of contraband of war, are not liable to capture
under enemy's flag. 4. Blockades, in order to be bind-
ing, must be effective ; that is to say, maintained by a
force sufficient really to prevent access to the coast of the
enemy.
The Governments of the undersigned Plenipotentiaries
engage to bring the present declaration to the knowledge
of the States which have not taken part in the Congress
of Paris, and to invite them to accede to it. Convinced
that the maxims which they now proclaim cannot but be
received with gratitude by the whole world, the under-
signed Plenipotentiaries doubt not that the efforts of their
Governments to obtain the general adoption thereof will
be crowned with full success. The present declara-
tion is not, and shall not be, binding, except between
those Powers who have acceded, or shall accede to it.
The declaration was signed by Buol-Schauenstein'
Hubner, Walewski, Bourqueney, Clarendon, Cowley,
Manteuffel, Hatzfeldt, Orloff, Brunnow, Ca,vour, De
Villamarina, Aali, Mehemmed Djemil.

THE CARLISLE COLLISION.

The adjourned inquest on the parsons destroyed by the
late railway accident at Carlisle was resumed yesterday.
Mr. Jackson spoke to being on the goods engine by the
invitation of the driver. The train was going at four or
five miles an hour. Rowell heard thh whistle of the pas-
senger train, anp said unless he could draw up there would
be mischief. He tried to stop. but could not. Witness
tried, and also failed, and the collision followed. James
Henderson, guard, described the going out of the train,
and said Rowell told him he could have stopped in four or
five yards more. John Simpson, guard, spoke to the train
at Canal Station, only one man being on the engine.
Michael Shinlds, guard, was knocked out of a waggon by
a jerk. He saw the danger signals, red and green, and
knew he ought not to pass. The inquest was again
adjourned.

MELANCHOLY COLLISION IN THE CHANNEL.

ARRIVAL OF THE EARL AND COUNTESS OF
DERBY AT KNOWSLEY.

Shortly after three o'clock yesterday afternoon the Earl
and Countess of Derby arrived after their bridal tour at
the Edge-hill (Liverpool) Station of the London and North
Western Railway, having left London at ten o'clock a.m.
A carriage and pair awaited the Earl and Countess at the
station, and they immediately drove off to Knowsley.
As the hour at which they arrived was earlier than wa
expected, few persons were at the station, but upon the
entrance of the noble pair within the precincts of the
Knowsley demense the tenantry took the horses from the
carriage. The tenantry were regaled in marquees on the
ground, and the whole demense was thrown open to the
public, all classes of which availed themselves of the
privilege in great numbers.

THE CENSUS OF NEXT YEAR.

The bill making provision for taking the census
next year has been published. It states that one of
her Majesty's principal Secretaries of State will
superintend the taking of the Census. Registrars'
sub-districts are to be formed into enumerators'
divisions, according to instructions to be prepared
under the directions of the Secretary of State, the
enumerators themselves to be appointed from persons
selected by the registrars, subject to the approval of
the Registrar-General. The schedule to be left at
the: dwelling-house of every occupier to be filled
must contain entries giving particulars of the name,
sex, age, rank, profession or occupation, condition,
relation to the head of the family, and birthplace of
every person who abode in the house on the night of
Sunday, the 2nd day of April, 1871, stating also
whether any are deaf, dumb, or blind. The
enumerators are to take an account of the
occupied houses, of the houses then building, and of
all uninhabited houses. In the book into which the
schedules will be entered the enumerators must dis-
tinguish the several parishes and places maintaining
their own poor, and also those places and parishes
within the limits of any city or borough returning or

A PAINFUL STORY.

A curious case lately came-before the Warwick
Assizes. A. labourer named Thomas Chapman was
charged with the murder of his wife. They had
been married five years, but lately the prisoner had
given way to jealousy, and his suspicions caused a
great deal of unpleasantness in the family. The
strangest part of the story is, that he de-
livered himself up to justice as the mur-
derer of his wife. He first informed his
father that ne had pushed her into the canal
because he could not endure his jealous feelings any
longer. His clothes were wet, which circumstance so
far confirmed his statement. He subsequently pro-
ceeded to the police-station, where he repeated his
confession and the woman's body was found at the
place he indicated. It seemed that he had had a
narrow escape from drowning himself, as the unfor-
tunate woman had caught hold of him and he ex-
tricated himself with great difficulty. Some doubts
were entertained as to the sanity of the prisoner, but
upon the evidence of the medical witnesses he was
found guilty of manslaughter and sentenced to penal
servitude for life.

AUTHOR'S RIGHTS IN AMERICA.

The United States Court in South Illinois gave a
decision lately with respect to the right of an author
to his productions before publication, and the Su-
preme Court of Massachusetts has just given a still
more important decision on the subject. The pro-
prietors of a Boston paper were sued by a would-be
contributor, who had sent various articles in prose
and verse for their approval. These selections
did not find favour in the eyes of the
publishers, and as the • author had not
sent stamps in case of rejection, they de-
stroyed his manuscripts after the lapse of some
time. The court decided, however, that unless
bought and paid for, the author possessed some rights
in his contribution, and the jury, in accordance with
this view, awarded the plaintiff the liberal verdict of
fifty dollars besides costs. According to this view
of the case, it would not avail the publishers to insert
a printed warning that manuscripts could not be
returned unless prepaid. The interests of the
tribe or litterateurs seem to be jealously guarded in
the United States.

THE LATE LORD JUSTICE GIFFARD.

A. feeling tribute was paid to the memory of the
late Lord Justice Giffard by the Lord Chancellor,
when taking his seat in the Court of Chancery the
first time after the announcement of the death of his
lamented colleague. It would, he said, have been
more consonant with his feelings, and with those of
Lord Justice James, to have closed the court for the
day, but they both felt that the colleague whose loss
they deplored would have been unwilling to ocoa-
sion any needless inconvenience to suitors. Twice
within one year, said Lord Hatherley, had
he been called upon to lament the death of a coad-
jutor younger than himself. He had before acknow-
ledged the graceful act of self-denial by which Lord
Justice Selwyn ceded the position which was his due
by seniority of appointment, but he made another
reference to it on this occasion. With regard to the
legal abilities of Lord Justice Gifford, the Lord
Chancellor observed that none but those who had
had the responsibility of judicial decision
could adequately appreciate the advantages
of a concise, complete, and vigorous argu-
ment, in which his late colleague excelled. " On no oc-
casion," he added, " had we the misfortune to differ.
Had it been otherwise I should have had just reason
to doubt the soundness of my conclusions. We
could claim the common advantage of the training
and the traditions of the same public schools, as well
as those of our common profession; and our principles
of thought and action were thus more completely
brought into unison." Suitors have also reason to
regret the loss of a judge so thoroughly in harmony
with' his colleagues.

GOLDWIN SMITH IN THIS ITNITIZI3 STATES.

Professor Goldwin Smith has been enlightening
the students and visitors of Cornell University on the
condition of Europe. He was not, of course, aware,
when speaking on the 29th of June, of the new and
startling phase upon which European politics were
entering, but he found a good deal to say, neverthe-
less. The (Ecumenical Council was, he thought,
part of a great crisis, which would result in the
abolition of the standing armies, and the establish-
ment of Liberalism. Garibaldi and Mazzini received
high encomiums, and a great career was, he believed,
open to Gladstone and his followers in England. On
the next day the grand commemoration was kept at
Cornell, Ezra Cornell in the founder's chair, occu-
pying the post of honour on the right of the Presi-
dent of the University. Orations were delivered,
and prizes and diplomas awarded, according to the
regular University custom, but no honorary degrees
were conferred. The President, however, announced
that the Regents of the University of the State of
New York (in which Cornell University is situated),
had allowed him to confer the degree of Doctor of
Letters upon Goldwin Smith. This intimation was
received with enthusiastic applause, but it was
noticeable that no Latin was used either in the
ceremonies or in the distribution of the diplomas.

AN IRISH PARLIAMENT.

The idea of an Irish Parliament is certainly gain-
ing ground, and the arguments in its favour at least
obtain a patient hearing from English audiences.
A large public meeting, called by the Irish and
English Association, has been held at Birmingham,
at which addresses were delivered on the subject.
Resolutions were passed with unanimity and enthu-
siasm, declaring that while the meeting could not
entertain the idea of any separation between Eng-
land and the sister country, its members were
anxious to see Ireland's oft - repeated wish
for self - government gratified by the estab-
lishment of a Federal Parliament, with
full power to regulate all her internal affairs, and
control her resources and revenues, leaving to
the Imperial Parliament the power of lealing with
all questions affecting the government of the empire
at large. The meeting also rejoiced to hear that the
national movement for an Irish Parliament had
already produced more harmony among the
various creeds, classes, and parties than had
been known in the present century, and they
desired to add to that auspicious union the
good wishes of Englishmen. The meeting at
Birmingham, therefore, declared its readiness to
assist by all moral and constitutional means the
securing to Ireland of that federal government which
has already resulted in peace and prosperity in
Austria and the dominion of North America.

RED RIVER AFFAIRS.

Letters from Fort Garry, to the date of June
11th, say that the expedition is welcomed by the
mass of the Red River people. The journal entitled
the New Nation declares that the Red River people
have always been loyal, but that they have always
been misunderstood. The Provisional Government
are disposed to accept the Manitoba Bill, 'and Riel's
organ states that the bill seems likely to grant their
demands in all cases of material importance. News
from Thunder Bay up to June the 20th says that
the starting of the expedition may be delayed
through a check that has occurred in the pas-
sage of the boats to Shebandowan. There is no
news of tho Fenian, but should they attempt any
" filibustering," they will all be disposed of by
Indians. It appears that the first detachment of
boats which was sent to make the passage of the
Shehandowan River has come upon a series of rapids
with high bluffs on either side.

ENGLISH TROOPS IN BELGIUM.

Among the canards which have recently been set afloat
is a statement that the Cabinet have been considering the
propriety of sending a body of troops to Antwerp, in order
to protect the neutrality of Belgium ; and that orders
have been given to hold a sufficient detachment in readi-
ness for the purpose. Frahce and Prussia have announced
their intention to respect Belgian neutrality, and the
British Government is not likely to take any step which
proceeds on an assumption at once of-bad faith on the
part of those Powers, and of the insufficiency of the pre-
parations of the Belgian Government for the maintenance
of its own neutral position. Our readers will be amply
warranted in entire disbelief of these rumours. —Daily
News.

THE MASSACRE OF CHRISTIANS IN
CHINA.

The Russian Government have received the following
telegram, dated Troitskossovsk, July 6 :
"News from Tien-Tsin, dated June 9 (21), announce
that the Chinese populace of that town, irritated against
the Roman Catholic missionaries, have massacred the
Consul of France and his secretary, all the Roman
Catholic priests, nine sisters of charity, two merchants
and their wives, and two young Russians. The French
consulate, the Roman Catholic church, and the hospital
for the sisters of charity, have been burnt down. The
other Europeans were unmolested. On the next day order
bad been re-established by the authorities,"

of the defendant in working upon the affections
of his victim to induce her to obtain for him a sum
of .£3O from a young man she was engaged to, and to the
miserable cowardice and wantonness displayed by the de-
fendant when he found Miss Davis was pregnant, in en-
deavouring to induce her to lay the blame upon her lover,
her brother-in-law, and others. The defendant subse-
quently attempted to pursue a similar line of conduct
with reference to the second daughter.—The jury could
not agree, and were discharged.

A GENERAL INDIAN WAR.

The Indian war has commenced with a vengeance,
Red Cloud's men taking part, enthusiastically in it.
When they drive the ringbolt of a waggon through a
white man's heart, and take out the tendons down his
spine for bowstrings, as they did recently, we may well
presume that the wrath with which that blood-thirsty
warrior left civilization has no wise abated. There is such
a general movement all through the Indian countries that
more available troops, which were long ago demanded by
the aspect of affairs, have been hurried from Eastern gar-
risons to reinforce General Sheridan. Some of the Sioux,
of Winnipeg Territory, have crossed the line and are
depredating on American soil. It is reported also that the
marauders, when hotly pursued, take refuge in their
reservations, where they have supplies enough laid up
from the rations granted them bythe general government,
and where, too, they are safe under the treaties from the
vengeance of soldiers or settlers. These facts show that
the savage is extending his operations in securing the aid
of his Winnipeg brethren, and is improving on the savage
art of war in holding his reservation as a base, while he
has forgotten nothing of the science of torture as it was
taught and practised by his ancestors in Wyoming Valley.

THE FRENCH AND PRUSSIAN CRISIS.

There remains little doubt that France means to oppose
the elevation of a German Prince to the Spanish Throne.
The French Foreign Minister officially announced to the
Corps Legislatif that France would not permit a German
Power, meaning Prussia, of course, since there is no
no longer any German Power, to place one of its own
princes, even though he is a blood relation of the
Emperor Napoleon, on the Spanish Throne. Royal
blood in Europe is not much thicker than water,
especially when it is the blood of a Bonaparte ;
and Napoleon, who knows this as well as any
man in Europe, is not prepared to trust to his relation-
ship to the proposed Hohenzollern—uncle or nephew, it
does not yet appear which—to counteract the influences
of political intrigues and alliances which Bismarck may
concoct. Hence he has energetically opposed the choice
of a German Prince. And it now appears that, as
that design has been persisted in by Prussia and by
Prim, Napoleon as energetically acts to prevent its
consummation. On Tuesday the Prussian Minis-
ter was served with a note by Minister 011i-
vier, which the telegraphic despatch describes
as firm and energetic, and which subsequent
events leave no room to doubt was a protest against the
evident design of Prussia. On the same day the Prussian
Minister left Paris. On Wednesday the French Minister
was recalled from Berlin. It appears that the former left
for the purpose of conveying the note of the French
Minister to the Prussian Monarch at Ems, and it does
not appear that the French Minister was recalled pre-
paratory to actual hostile operations. But the indications
clearly point to an immediate suspension of the peace-
ful relations between the two countries. There would
seem at first to be no great danger that the two Powers
would precipitate a war on a question of this seeming
insignificance, but we must not overlook the fact that the
Rhenish frontier and other disputes yet remain unsettled,
or at least are only temporarily arranged, to the evident
dissatisfaction of Napoleon. further and more definite
news may dissipate, as we hope, the present warlike
aspect, but it is vain to attempt to conceal that the peace
of Europe is seriously threatened by what was at first an
apparently insignificant intrigue.—New York Tribune,
12th July.

CHARGE OF BIGAMY.

At the Ryde Borough Police-court on Tuesday, James
Justin Morgan, a bandsman residing in London, was
charged with intermarrying with Sarah Jane Linington,
his former wife, Catherine Morgan, being then alive.
The first marriage took place at St. Michael's Church,
Limerick on March 4th, 1868. The prisoner was then a
bandsman on board H.M.S. Frederick William, and the
parties lived together till May, 1869, when the prisoner
left his wife, and she last heard from him in the following
August. On the Ist of January, this year, he committed
the act of bigamy at the Registrar's Office at Newport,
Isle of Wight. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and was
committed for trial at the Winchester Assizes.
