AIDED.
LONDON, April 5. Trustworthy accounts from st.
Petersburg state that the is very unpopular
amongst the mercantile classes and that in conse
quence of this feeling order had been issued for
bidding the assembling in the streets of groups of
over two persons.
Reliable accounts from Berlin state that the Cars
letter to the King of Prussia contains tangible

Russia, and concludes the intimation that fthe West
tern Powers desire peace they should obtain from
Turkey redress for the wrongs of which he complains
Advices from Montenegro state that courier from

THE WAR IN EUROPE The Arctic brings confir-
nation of the rapidly gathering tempest of in
the East, and by the next steamer may hear that
at least of the allies has already come into COL
lision with the Russians. Both Austria and Prussia
stand aloof and it that the Car asks nothing
but neutrality from either. Meanwhile lhe is exct-
ing the warike tribes of the border countries in OPP
position to Turkey, and energetcaly increasing and
training his forces for the approaching struggle
BY the same steamer intelligence reaches u.s. upon
which full reliance can be placed, that the revolu-
tionary element is already actively at work. 1.-The
canker of long peace has greatly enervated those
monarchies that not affected by the troubles
which began in 1913. On the other hand, the
elements which produced the overthrow of Louis
Philippe, the risings in Hungary and Italy, and the
outbreaks in Germany, have proved to be no ordin-
airy schools to the of able and daring spirits
that always look forward to the downfall of old dy
nasties 1t is true that many of these leaders have
within two or three years, been expelled from the
chosen of their early efforts, but they have
not been idle in their reluctant exile London has
been the headquarters of the nsurrectionists. If
Victor Hugo cannot print his politics in the streets
of Paris, he prepare for agitation on the
British side of the channel. Kossuth has not slept
-Mazzini has not folded his arms-Ledru Rollin has
not wasted his time. They have all been working
for the hour at hand, and they will soon be in
the midst of the fray.
A war like that which has now been inangurated
cannot fail to involve the whole of Europe We saw
how the troubles Of 1913 extended from nation to
nation-Russia and Turkey alone standing out
harmed and Indifferent, and England kept quiet only
by the utmost vigilance and vigor At present, the
theatre has been so enlarged to include all who
were not involved in the tumults six years ago. We
shall be surprised it does not extend itself to every
government in Europe, and nearly affecting Asia
itself ultimately. Washington Union.
