The news from Europe continues to look war
like, not 20 much because there 10 any real occa-
SOD for war, but because the two great powers
France and Prussia, seem inclined to make the
hohenzollern question the occasion for the CON
test to settle the championship Of Europe. This
contest must come sooner or later, and Nspo-
leon evidently thinks II may rs well be fought
out now rs ever. His preparations are on
the same scale as on previous OCCASIONS
when he meant war, and not dipiom acy.
His navy and army have been concen-
trated. his reserves ordered up, his troops
recalled from Algeria, and the immense mill

consequent upon the war news from Europe.
IL absorbed the speculative interest of Wall
street and lett the markets dull and inactive
i he opening price was liz. from which there
was an advance to 112a. by one O'Clock, but as
the cable kilograms at that hour reported
nothing new, and rs the bank statement was
expected to show a large gain in specie, there
was relapse TO 1l2 again. But here the market
became strong and feverish on dispatches an
nouncing q less pacific state or affairs. and
when, later, II was announced that rentes had
fallen to 69.5o, and that the Paris Bourse was
greatly excited, the price eventually ro-s to
li2h-eertainly a small advance considering
the influence at work upon the market. The
hrmness Of United States securities in the

OF the really uihing rise in gold A few
years ago, says the Herald, such news
would have electrified the Gold Room and sent
the premium dancing up one or two per cent. at

A NOVEL reformatory enterprise is in
nrorress in the Idaho Territorial Prison. The
nr;soners have formed Bible-class, and
snend part of each day in reading and COM
menting on the Scriptures, and in the per-
formance of religious services. Two prison.
ers, who were pardoned in the latter part Of
last month, left the institution with great re-
luctance, as they regard its moral atmos-
phere as Of far higher tone than that of the
rest of the Territory. One of the inmates,
who attempted to rob an express wagon train,
is now studying for the ministry, expecting to
preach the gospel when he is set at liberty.
On the occasion of breaking ground and be
ginning the foundation for the Idaho feni-
tentiary, on the second instant, the citizens OF
Boise city were invited to be present at the
ceremonies; and the views of the inhabitants
of that city upon such subject may be in
ferred from the terms of the potice, which
says: "a general attendance of every age
and sex is requested, in order that ali may
view the commencement of an edifice that
may some day be their home." Such possi-
bility is delightful to contemplate, where life
and society in such institutions is so far SUI
perior to their outside surroundings.
