The Luxumburg Question Excit-
Ing Renewed Interest.
Danger of a General European
War.

New York, May 9.-The n. Y. Herald's
special dated London, May s, says; :.
The first session of the peace congress at
ter its organization in this city yesterday was
not merely a formal meeting of the great
mowers represented, but one at which the
Luxemburg question was discussed with
desire to bring the difficulty between France
and Prussia to speedy close. --..s so,
The proceedings are to be kept secret till the
close of the congress-. This mach however Is
known that France is willing to accept the neu-
tralization of Luxemburg and the dismantling
and DESTROYING of the fortress so that it may not
remain as menace Prussia is not disposed to
consent to this unless all the great powers now
represented in the congress give guarantee OF
the settlement. The giving of this guarantee
would bind them to engage in war against the
future designs of either France or Prussia seeking
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT in this direction.
England hestates to give such guaran-
tee and fayors the idea of the people of Lux
emburg for annexation to Belgium.
The session was adjourned to Thursday to
| to enable the representatives to have tele-
graphic communication with their respective
| governments. Meantime, pending the issue
| of the deliberations of the peace congress,
| great war preparations are going on on both
sides, notwithstanding official denials to the
| contrary.
! France is buying arms both in England
and Spain, and the Prussian troops of the
| regular army are being held in readiness tc
support the garrison in Luxembourg.
| The n. Y Herald's special dated Berlin
May 8, says:
Count Bismark, in conversation on the as
pect of affairs on Tuesday, declared that the
situation is now more seridus than ever be
fore.
The general opinion on the continent il
that the maintenance of peace depends OF
the action of the London conference.
Fears are entertained that the failure o
the representatives there assembled ma.
bring on general European war.

ALEXANDER II. STEPHEN

1t will be noticed that Mr.. Stephens says
almost daily, applications of the most urgent
and distressing character are made to me
for food. The greater number of applica-
tions are by the colored peple."
Though the suffering is, no doubt, very
general, it falls chiefly upon the colored
poor, and this is an extra reason why our
radical friends should show, not only their
zeal to save the lives of their peculiar
friends, but also their philanthropy towards
"whole communities dependant upon charity
for the scanty fare that keeps starvation from
their doors"
Like our neighbor of the Union, ",ce are
in favor of making an effort, y and we respect
fully urge the Mayor to call public meeting
for that purpose.
