Duration of the War.

According to present Indications those who
expect an early conclusion of the French
Prussian war will be disappointed. At this
moment f RAJ ce finds herself very much in the
position of our Northern States after Bull
Kun Its army has been outwitted ana whip
ped, and panic has seized the capital Of the
Empire. Napoleon is not likely to sue for
peace under these circumstances Peace
would be as utterly destructive of his DYNASTY
as the subj ngation of France itself He is not
Hfely to hesitate between the chances Of pro
tracted war and the chances of humilating
suspension of bostilities
The resources of the two nationalities, more
over, are too nearly balanced to admit of tie
presumption that the prowess of Prussia is
equal to the subjugatiou of France Nor does
Prussia desire the subjugation of France The
German people wisely prefer to limit their
conquests to the recovery Of their original
sovereignty on the either side Of the Rhine.
Indemnity for the past and security for the
future" is their just claim This i. a claim
which mankind is always prepared to recos-
nize in quarrel of this kind
we are to remember, also, that every POWER
In Europe is an Interested spectator of the
passing conflict Armed neutrality is a diplo-
matte phrase signifying qualified intervention.
1t means neutrality in the field but actual in
tsrvention as to all the practical results of the
war. In the Rhenish provinces King William
contends alone with France But by the time
the Prussian army thunders 1T the gates of
Paris, Bismark Will find himself compelled to
q combat with every prime minister in Eu-
rope Milwaukee News.

Ohio Politics-Signs Of the Times.
The Cincinnati Commercial, hitherto
prominent and leading Republican o-gan,now
defines its position as follows:
II the Republican party is for high tariff
system, which intends TO rob the people that
a few interests may be enriched, il Is not Re
Iui ican. II the party should decide to deny
to the Chinese al civil and political rights
conferred upon other foreigners who shall
chance to become citizens Of the United States,
n is net Republican II the policy Of govern
ing The reconstructed States, us illustrated by
governor Holden of North Carolina, is endorsed
by the Republican party, as II seems to have
been by the president then the Commercial Is
not republican. If it be its policy to vote
away its public lands to vast corporations and
to squander its public money in enterprise OF
annexation and territorial ACKNOWLEDGEMENT,
then it is not publican If it be locally the
policy to put forward candidates for places OF
trust men who are the tools of corrupt rings,
if not members of them themselves, and to
insist upon sustaining them because they are
labeled Republican by packed convention, tien
the Commercial is not republican. 1t has no
claims upon the party, and the party nole
upon it. and it will not fail so far as III 1t lies,
to speak the truly of men and measures with
out fear OR favor, whether they be Republican
or democrat.

How Prim Received IeOpold's

How Prim Received Leopold's
Refusal Of the Crown of Spain.
Prlm was greatly discontinued on learn
Ing OF the refusal of Prince Leopold to ac-
cep. the protfered crown of Spain. A
party assembled at his reception rooms, in
Madrid, were playing cards, when, at
about III: 80 clock, dispatch was handed
ed to HIM, acquaintlng him of the with
drawal. He was visibly annoyed a. the
receipt OF the dispatch, and could not be-
lleve 1t. HIS first Impression was that
aome one was hooking him. He turned
the parer over several times, read 1t again
and again, and said to friend, handing
him the dispatch: See how misfortune
follows US. | had sert off by post letters
TO the deputies to beg them to assemble on

piled that it would be better to wait until
the news was confirmed, and then lay the
matter before council Of ministers.
Bah, " rejoined Prim; instead of going to
take waters at Carlsbad, we shall 90 to
Vlchy. No, word of this to any one.
We shall see what is to be done to>mor-
row." Toward IL o'clock, the Marchio.
ness of Castlllejos, Prim's wife, was still
playing at cards, but paid little attention
to the game, being curious to know what
was going on. She said to the ex- Minister
Of Foreign Affairs: well. Mr.. Minister,
shall we soon go to take the water at
Vichy?" To which his excellency re-
replied: II believe, Madame we shall
remain in Madrid The Marchicness re.
joined that no news could be got from d.
