THE NEUFCHATEL CoNTRovERsY.-One OF
the subjects of principal interest in European
since "entiente cordial'' has been |
restored between France and England, is the
claim of Prussia upon the little principaiity |
of Neuichatel, one of the smallest of the
Swiss cantons. 1t existed as an independent
State, governed by its own sovereign, till about
the year 100, when the direct line Of Dukes
became extinct; numerous crowd of pre-
tenders appeared to claim the vacant throne,
and among them the king of Prussia, who by
bribery, secured the title of Prince Of Neuf-
chatel, and nominal authority and a right to
a small tribute. The principality retained
the privilege to make its own internal laws.
and remained one Of the menbs of the
Swiss confederation; and the kings authority
was limited principally to the appointment Of
a Governor. During the French revolution
and Napoleon's reign, it fell under the control
of France, and was disposed of by the Empe
ror as best suited his policy. At the general
peace Of Europe, it was restored to the Hell
veto Republic, without detriment to the an
cient right of Prussia. 1t remained in this
condition till the revolutionary outbreak OF
1913, when the people renowned all allegiance
to Prussia, and elected their own Governor
No attempt was made to bring them back in
to subsection till recently. Last September a
domestic faction. in the interest OF Prussia
excited rebellion, with the avowed purpose
Of restoring the Prussan authority. The
movement was quelled, and the ringleader.
were arrested, and have since been tried and
condemned. Prussia has interlered and de
> manded the unconditional release of the pri
soners, and re-asserts her former sovereign
! rights. The Swiss confederacy persists il
treating the prisoners as rebels, and avows it
determination Of Furnishing them. Prussi;
threatens to march an army into the Swis
territory, and seize portion of it as mate
rial guarantee. Both parties have appealed t.
the great Powers to determine their respective
rights, and the quarrel will be a subject to b
settled by the Congress at Paris. 1t is report
ed that Prussia has offered to forego her pc
litical pretensions, if the Swiss will yield tn
prisoners.

THE Hoe CRoP.-The conviction that the
crop of hogs is to be materially short this sea-
son, is spreading as the returns of receipts at
the various points are made. At Cincinnati
the receipts are slightly short of what they
were lasc year at the same date. Around the
Falls and Louisville the indications are that
the decrease will be 25 per cent. At the
minor points to the Northeast, the reduction
is greater The falling off is accounted for in
some measure, by the increased numbers sent
over the railroads alive, to be slaughtered at
the East The increased shipments by rail-
road of live hogs, is estimated to be so per
cent. more this year than last.
