Prospects OF "a European war,

The Paris correspondent Of the Boston Post
thus allddes to the political prospects of Eu-
rope. lie says:
You may remember predicted longer
and more completed war, last year, than did
take place. That complication has now ar
rived and very few here anticipate any thing
but general European war within a few
months, Louis Napoleon Is determined TO have
the banks of Rhine, or, at least, the Western
bank; and Russia is equally determined TO have
u large slice Of Turkey and passage TO the
sea by way Of the Bosphorns and the Dardanel-
les Every thing seems in the most favorable
position for combination Of the powers Of
France and Russia OF course in this pro
gramme Spain will throw all her weight with
France Sardinia will also fight with the Gal
lie cock, and poor Austria, poor Naples and,
alas poor Turkey will be tho victims and
Prussia will have to struggle for her Rhine
provinces, Coblentz and Ehrenbritstein, with
her iron-bound wall We shall see, but no
one expects England and France to be at
peace many months longer

Lincoln as he Is.

from the Chicago Press and rrbune-''with yaria-
tons"
"Mr LINCOLN stands six feet and four inch
es high in his stockings and not quite so
high without them His frame is not mus
cular,' but is made up of flesh and bones like
others In walking he puts one foot be-
fore the other and steps deliberately as if
thinking what Horace would say of him in the
next Tribune In matters Of dress he is by
no means precise, yet he has never been
known to pull on his brooches over his head
and the hickory shirt in which he made rails
"is Railways clean if not fashionable. His
slightly Roman nose, wdc-cut mouth, and
dark complexion with the appearance of hav-
ing been weather beaten is said 10 indicate
in him the kindly sentiments which women
love, and this is saying great deal more in
praise Of the cOuntenance than of the taste of
the women His head sits well on his shoul-
ders, which would render it easier to drown
him than to take his life in some other man
ner beyond this it defes description" except
that it sticks out generally all round and is
covered with black, wiry hair
''Mr Lincoln is as simple as a child" yet
until the nomination he was always allowed to
run about alone, and the same privilege will
undoubtedly be accorded TO him after the cleo
ton "He never drinks anything stronger
than ginger beer,--of this he is particularly
fond and on Fourth of July or general train
ing "goes in on it largely He never uses
profane language. A friend says that once

Of votes Seward got on the first ballot, 'he
was heard to say dog on ii, but beyond this

guage is chaste and classical in the extreme,
His enemies may say that he tells Black Re
publican lies but any one who knows how
absurd it is to imagine that such thing ex
lists as a Republican lie, will know this al
once 10 be base SANDER.
IF Mr. Lincoln is elected President he will
carry but little that is ornamental to the
