The organ of the British Prime Min
lister deems it proper to give contradic-
ton to the rumors of growing GOODNESS
between France and England on the sub
ject of foreign policy" 1t afirms that
" the fullest confidence and concord exist
at the present moment between the two
governments, and that there is nothing
to warrent the supposition that they cam
not act together, or have any secret de-
sign of acting apart upon any European
question" The Post admits, however,
that they may not be united on every
small matter of foreign policy, and i'm
putes to Austria a desire to isolate Eng
land. On the Italian question, France
and England understand each other, and
are united; but although England has
no desire to stand alone, she can do so if
necessary" That is what Lord Palmer
sion wishes Austria to understand.
The Sound dues question is pretty
much in the the same state as it was three
months ago, the consent of Lord Claren-
don TO the capitalization of the dues hav-
ing been given only in general terms.
HOLLAND AND BELGIUM.
An international philanthropic Con-
gres was opened at Brussels on the 18th.
It's objects are thus stated,
"The object Of this Congress is to in
quire into the means of rendering the
poor less poor-the unhappy people more
happy. It affects philanthropy, but its
business has obviously a reference to pc
litics. Divided into sections, it eontem-
plates the following o6ject;-1. Subsis-
fences in connection with agriculture. 3
Snbsistences in connection with political
and charitable economy. 3. Subsisten-
ces considered in connection with science
and industry; machinery and inventions
calculated to facilitate manual labor, TO
improve the sanitary condition of trades
and professions, and to prevent accidents
the amelioration of the workmen's habi-
tations, Of their furniture and their cloth
ing"
We lave no account of the proceedings
of the Congress.
The question of slavery is causing
some excitement in Holland as we'll as in
this country. A correspondent referring
to the fact that the kings speech dealt il
vague generalities respecting the slave
question, says;
"Whether the nations-now wrought
up into an Uncle Tom fever respecting
slavery-will allow itself again to be
temporized with on this matter, is very
problenatic. Forty thousand slaves, il
the Dutch West Indies, await with fear
ful Impotence the measures which the
Dutch Legislature may adopt for theil
emancipation. France revolutioniseG
Europe; Kansas may rouse to energy
and resistance the slave population of tht
West Indies"
