A Soldiers correspondence of Berline
maintains that the policy Of the French
government has not taken a decided

Gazette, says the French Ambassador at

The London Morning Post declares that
there is no present cause to fear any dis
turbanee of the peace. The Cabinets of St
Petersburg and the Tuilleries are acting
together on the Schleswig question, and
are holding same language at Berlin. The
true cause of general distrust is the resto-
ration Of the French army to what is called
its normal footing. What we feel about
our naval power, France feels about her
military prestige. In like manner France
is agitated on finding that she is no longer
the first military power of Europe, and will
have to make great exertions to hold her
own. Notwithstanding the uneasiness ex-
hibited by our neighbor, there is as yet no
question upon which an angry dispute may
exist, or upon which quarrel could be
fixed.

France is leaving no stone unturned to
secure the cooperation of Austria in eaus-
ing war with Prussia.

tory members made speeches, from the
reading of which, one would suppose
ireland the happiest country in the world.
Mr. Mcguire declared that the legisla-
tive neglect of Ireland had aroused the
bitterest possible feeling against this
country in the United States.
Chancellor of Echequer agreed that the
state of Ireland was Emost unsatisfactory,
but that it arose not from the acts of the
present or last government, but from efforts
on the exterior agency. He proceeded to
declare that the governments efforts at
legislation for Ireland had met with no
support, and he held out no hopes of more
being done.
Two hundred .Hannoverian refugees have
applied for permission to establish them
selves in Switzerland. The federal Cabi-
net referred the matter TO the central gov
eminent. A telegram fron Berlin states
that Denmark declines to entertain the sue-
gestion. She should give special guaran-
