days later advices from Europe. The
contents of the news are unimportant.

between England and France may be
disturbed. The London papers have con-
strued paragraph of the Moniteur into
a menace, and harsh replies have been
made by the Times; and in the Morning

ment. Public rumor no longer hesitates
to say that an Anglo-Austrian alliance
is necessary to counteract the threaten
ing alliance between Russia and France.
