g'uis De La Vallitte, am basador from France
n England to Earl Tranville, In reply to
Bismarck say that dispatch was received
in Parliament with general distrus,.
There is no doubt but what every Mon
days debate in the House of Commons will
reveal England in attitude of resolute
hostility to designs from every quarter at
fecting Belgium. Caution of the government
canno. be maintained much longer without
being regarded as temsrity. 1t supporters
will com pei streight forward declarations.
D'israeli's purpose is known in advance to
commit the country to the policy which shall
| force France to let Belgium alone or con
| front England, but there is no policy lives
| that will be drawn on this questi on at the
| present crisis.
The Daily News of to morrow will say
| let there no longer be opposition. Be
unanimous" Parliament will recognize
bat one party, and that OF the country with
out distrusting good will either of France or
Prussia, it does not do to depend upon
either, England must defend herself

New YORK, July 30.-A special cores
pondent of the Tribune, under date of the
| 9th, writes from Fra nkfort: All civil
ians in Berlin are obliged to decide either to
| leave on Saturday or remain until further
orders for fortnight at least. After Satur
day ell railway transportation. except that
for military purposes, will be experienced
with great difficulty, sc hours being requlrsd
to reach Frankfort, instead Of ii hours. The
| whole country is occupied with war prepsra-
tions.
In journeyiug By military train, the cor
respondent encountered Polish soldiers,
conspicuous by their patriotic manifestations
and vehement hatred of the French people.
OF the peasantry throughout Prussia, only
landed proprietors and priests are hostile.
No outbreak is possible in Polish Prussia.
Without the concurrence Of the Russian and
Austrian Poles, France need hope for no
assistance there. Everywhere on the road
good order is shown and the soldiers are
cheered. The beginning of strategic move
ment are at hand. The German programme
is not "inaction." A great battle is immi-
nent. The French is said to have been
continuously Strengthening the Notifications
of Mayence with men. The secretary of
!. war declared a few days ago that the forti6-
cations were incapable of resisting a sudden
attack, but could stand siege and may
serve as base for Offensive operations.
