A question Of such moopItude and far.
reaching and lmportant eonseouopoes as this
rumorcd trlule alliance sug0ests oannot ho
dlsmlssed and placed among Tho sensational
canards of tho day without n further word
neither can Il be consigned to those eph ems.
raj. ilIusory stories which thu professional
and pensloned Bohemian of tho press perpe-
tratcs to startle the. auid nuncs and shake
the weak nerves Of tho old foeles In politics,
statesmanshlp and finance.
Let US look for moment to the origin Of
this cable telegram. II may DO o eanasd.
We so thought aud 80 said yesterday. In
stating what VIC did In Yesterdays Issue we
simply reported tho precise state Of public
feeling In the boat In formed circles here In
regard to the thon estimated reliance which
il was deemed proper to repose in tho truth
fitness of the dispatch. As has been already
stated, the telegram was special from Lon.
don to the New York Tribune, and is known
to have been sent over the wires by that
most reliable OF correspondents, George W.
smalley, than whom more Impassiyc aud
unimpulslyo man cannot DO found In the
newspaper fraternity. He Is no sensational
list, no manufacturer of canards, and do
spises all Sorts of Dohemlanlsm as he de-
spises fraud, rapinc, murder and blood.
Mr.. smalley Is the London correspondent
Of the Tribune, q gentleman of extensive and
ripe culture, and ono who possesses the outrs
to the best circles In Europe. He Ia an init.
mate friend and correspondent Of Bismarck,
and probably knows as much rospecflnp
European politics and the movements Of the
governing classes there as any American
gentleman can know; and besides, no could
moi be Influenced nv any such miserable and
disreputable pretexts as Tins tn pive firth
n dispatob to enhance or dcprcss thu prico.
