The visit of the King of Prussia to Compiegne is
' the subject of a lot* article in the Constitutionnel,
which commences by observing that the time has
gone by when Europe encompassed France with a
kind of moral quarantine, and when foreign princes
only ventured to enter the country for a few hours
and in the strictest incognito, on the condition of
not interchanging a salutation with any one. The
article then goes on to remark
" In the course of the last 10 years almost all the
Sovereigns of Europe have come officially, in the
face of Heaven, to contemplate the singularly in-
structive spectacle of a great people rescued all at
once from the intestine quarrels which were ex-
hausting its force, and replaced, almost by miracle,
at the head of nations. Kings and princes had, up
to that time, learnt to their cost how revolutions
begin, and it was natural that they should wish to
see how they finish under the prudent and firm hand
of a moderator and a chief. Imperial France, on
her part, has received these Royal visits without
pride, but with legitimate satisfaction. She has
only seen in them what was to be seen—not the
coalition for a temporary object of two contrary
principle's, not even the possibility of a wretched
compromise, but the hope that the interviews would
remove much prejudice, animosity, and hatred ; that
they would put an end to the costly apprehensions
which for 50 years kept European nations with arms
in hand and face to
"face; in short, that with the
Sovereigns learning to esteem and understand each,
other, the' populations would end by understanding
and liking each other. Ann thed,at :reproachingtlienrotmri visits
rnent
"France eees nothingelso i
of the King of Prussia and the-King of Holland."
The case is not, however, exactly the same in Ger-
many, the writer observes, and a certain disquietude
in evinced there at the presence of King William in
France. The Paris journal declares that such
anxiety would excite surprise were it not that lately
the Cabinet of Vienna, soliciting the alliance of
Prussia, sustained a check at Berlin ; and yet, ac-
cording to reliable information, the conditions which
Austria proposed were altogether unexpected, being
nothing less than to abandon' the direction of the
Germanic Confederation, and even to make a sacrifice
of all her remaining influence in Germany, Prussia
would consent to afford her a support sufficient to
consolidate her position at home and overcome the
resistance of the nationalities which claim from the
house of Hapsburg their self-government. The
French writer theft inquires whether Austria, when
strengthened in her situation, would have kept her
promises. Prussia was unwilling to ran the risk of
a trial, and her journals remarked with undisguised
bitterness that Vienna was accustomed to place in-
gratitude in the very first rank of her political
virtues. They consequently strongly dissuaded the
Prussian Government from entering on any such
alliance, even if paid for by greater concessions
than were then proposed. The Austrian jour-
nals raised a cry of alarm concerning the King's
visit, and. insinuated the possibility of certain poli-
tical arrangements of a ' nature to alarm the patrio-
tic sentiment of Germany. The Prussian press, so
resolute in face of the promises of Austria, mani-
fists at present less firmness, observes the writer—.
who is no other than M. Grandguillot—and stam-
mers out that the visit is only one of simple cour-
tesy ; that as the Emperor had carried his card to
Baden, King William is about to leave his at Com-
piegne. The writer expresses his disbelief that two
such powerful monarchs could meet merely to ex-
change some every-day acts of politeness. " You
imagine," says the article,
" That the presence of the King of Prussia at
Compiegne is anything but a political event. In
fact, it is more than a political event, and, if an
abusive employment had not been made of the ex-
pression, we should say that it is a social event ; we
confine ourselves to saying that it is, at the very
least; an economic one. During the last two years,
40 la klit/WII, ...cot 40tive negotiatiown bovn
carried on between Potsdam and the Tuileries to
obtain the lowering of the barriers of the Zollverein
and to open respectively the German markets to
French productions, and French markets to German
productions. Such a matter, is no doubt, in the opi-
nion of certain persons, only a seconi.ary one, but
in our eyes it is of great importance. Political trea-
ties only reconcile Governments, but commercial
treaties reconcile nations. The former, however
sincere and fair-dealing the governments are, may
be broken by the slightest circumstance; the latter,
however imperfectly they are at first established,
provided only they be based on a true principle,
triumph over all obstacles and end by dominating
the former. Let the English aristocracy, and in par-
ticular let the Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, be
asked what they think and what they expect of the
Rouher and Cobden treaty. King William, as we
have already more than once had the proof, is one
of the princes who know how to understand both
their country and their epoch. The firmness and
uprightness of his character are proverbial ; he is
of the race of those piinces who boldly declare to
their peoples that 'they place under foot unjust
prejudices and shortsighted hatred ; that they dis-
dain an ephemeral popularity, and only seek for
the impartial approbation of posterity.' "
A letter from Paris says :—The Royal visit is
more than ever the subject of interest and comment.
It has thrown everything else into the background.
All the papers have 'leaders on the subject, and
criticize those In all other papers, French, English,
and German. The whole press seems to have agreed
to welcome King William and the Prussian alliance.
The official papers are warmer in their feelings
than any of the others—yesterday the Coastitu-
tionnel, to-day the Patrie. The latter, like the
former, sees more than an act of high courtesy in the
visit; it sees .a political and patriotic inspiration,
calculated to put an end to misunderstandings and
prejudices, which are not the consequence of a natu-
ral hostility of the two races, but which result from
their respective positions, as produced by certain

Alliance. She found herself in a struggle for in-
fluence with Austria, her hereditary enemy, and be-
tween the rival pretensions of England and Russia.
The friendship of France alone can free her from
those bonds and restore her her liberty. Prussia is
at the head of the aspirations of Germany, and what
Power would-show sympathy for such a revolution ?
Not Austria, who is threatened herself by such a
revolution ; not Russia, who must dread a powerful
barrier in the West; and not England, anxious to
keep up the present state of things. After this ar-
gument comes the following mysterious passage :
" There would remain but France, and France

terestsp ast

a peril of what without

The passage about open frontiers reminds one a
good deal of the disavowed hint about the sponta-
neous guarantees offered by Italy. The article con-
cludes with a hope that all the past will be forgotten.
The pamphlet " Le-Rhin et la Vistnle" appeared
yesterday. Friday seems the day destined for the
appearance of pamphlets which have the mission to
make a noise.

As you 'will see from the copy you received, the
resume I sent you a few days ago is tolerably cor-
rect; torero is, however, one passage to which I
must draw your attention.

After proving that the incorporation of so large a
r,roup of Germans as dwell on the left bank of the
Rhine would be a cause of weakness to France by
imperilling the homogenity of the nation, the
pamphlet continues:—
Nevertheless, it could scarcely be maintained that
our frontier in the East must for ever remain such
as the diplomatists of 1815 lave traced it. With-
