hasreceiyed formal declaration Of war from France.
The Bavaran Chambers have granted the Govern
ment credit of % 600 600 forms.
In the House Of Lords, tonight Earl Russell in-
qulred what were the views and purposes of tho
Government in the present situation on the CONT
nent, and Lord Cairns asked especially if steps had
been taken to enforce the Neutrality laws Earl
Granville promised that the documents concerning
the war would be laid before the House az soon "a
they were copied. After the dispatch of some local
business the House adjourned.
In the House of Commons Mr. Harcourt made an
inquiry touching the for the preservation
of English neutrality. Mr.. Gladstone said the in
quiry was premature, coming before declaration Of
war had been made. While the Premier was thus
speaking, dispatch from Lord Lyons was handed
to him, announcing that the formal declaration Of
war had been sent by the French Government to Ber
lin. Mr.. Gladstone then replied that all the papers
would be submitted as soon as possible, and that a
measure looking to the preservation of neutrality
was in preparation. Particular attention would bc
paid in the to the status of belVerent ships
in British ports. After discussion on the strength Of
the army, during which Mr.. Osborne asserted that
the Government was unable TO put $1,000 men in tue
field, the Commons adjourned.
The rumor of Russias participation in the war be-
tween Prussia and France has caused an agitation
from which the stock market has not recovered at
the close of the day. The report has not yet re-
ceived confirmation. The panic peryaded all tho
markets in Liverpool, also, and many failures OF cot
ton dealers are apprehended tomorrow.

Two of the Corps Commanders of Belgium are the
subject of comment in the French papers, The
Figaro in order to show why France distrusts Bel
GUM mentions the fact of Gen. BriOhnants appoint
ment to the command of corps, and of Chazel to
another.
The former served in the French army many years
ago and held other offices of trust under the French
Government, but resigned on account of difficulties
with his superiOrs and left the country. Gen. Chazel
has recently been conspicuous in urging the con-
formity of the caliber of the Belgian cannon with
that of the Prussian. Both these Generals command
on the French frontier.
The official press of Berlin assert that Benedeti
lately French ambassador to that city, courted insult
by repeatedly waylaying and addressing King Will
liam after he had received Prussias ultimate answer
and renewing his insolent demands. 1t is said that
Benedict was not recalled by the French Govern

matter altogether foreign to the question at ISSUE

out shadow Of excuse or justification, plunges
Europe in war of which no person living may see

SIGNIFICANT WARNING FROM LONDON
PARIS Monday July is, 1870


PARIS. Monday, July Is, 1870.
Various opinions expressed in Paris respecting
the neutrality of Russia. In London a panic arose
in the stock market from the ru1nor that the En-
peror of Russia has pronounced in favor of Prussia
and has modified the Russian army and all trans
actions were paralyzed. There was a similar rumor
in Paris.
The London Morning Post to-day declares that "any
violation of Belgiums territory ends Engand's neu-
trality."
The Gaulos asserted a readiness on the part Of
Sweden to join with Denmark and France; but the
positive announcement from Stockholm is that the
Government of that country has assured France Of
its neutrality. That of Norway, it is said is also
assured. Switzerland will maintain an armed neu-
trality. The Chambers have voted plenary powers
to the State Council to raise money and troops.
The GGuIois says that the English Government has
instructed Lord Lyons to communicate with the
Duke of Grammont on the subject of the neutrality
Of Holland, which England wishes stipulated. There
is no doubt that France will willingly guarantee this
Among the most important decisions concerning neu-
trality viii be that of the South German States 1t
is said that France has required from them decision
by noon to-day.
