aHOMICIDE THROUGH IMPRU-
DENCE"

IF RICHARD FIcKEN of Philadelphia were
Frenchman and a member of the Imperial
family, he would probably be tried upon the
charge of ''homicide through imprudence,"
which is the novel title that has been invented
by the French officers of justice for the crime
of Prince Pierre Bonaparte in shooting Victor
Noir 1t will not be difficult to foretell the re-
suit of trial based upon such charge, and
the pleasant anticipatiens of Rochefort that
Bonaparte would be the successor of Traupp-
man under the axe of the guillotine will
scarcely be realized. There is saying in the
United States navy that it is practi-
cally impossible to convict an
Admiral before court-martial, and
that it is almost as difficult to acquit COM
mon sailor so in France the conviction Of
Bonaparte for the 'imprudent homicide" of
a journalist who had abused the imperial
family would be q phenomenon even greater
than the acquittal of journalist for offenses
against the press laws. While the indict-
ment against the assassin of Victor Noir is
equivalent to an acquittal, or at least that he
will at the most only be obliged to undergo
nominal punishment, the prosecution and
conviction of editors who dare to say what
they think are being carried on with relent-
less vigor. Yesterday the cable furnished us
with a considerable list of journalists who
had been sentenced to fine
and imprisonment, and to-day the
same despatch that informs us of the exact

making preparations on IA large scare, as if "a
conflict was imminent, bur it is hoped that a

England, moved by the threatening cOndi
tion of Russian affairs, has interferred once
more in the French war and proposed an arm
i~fice recognizing the government at Tours
for this purpose. The Engli~h proposal is in
the nature of compromise. Prussia demands
Al>ace and Lorraine, and France has already
refused to consider terms looking to their ces-
sion. England now suggests that they shall he
neutraIlzed-neither contestant gaining it, end
and, further, that the great Powers snail guar

time, while France pays the German war cost
and RACES the frontier fOrtreSSes She also
wants Congress convened to arrange the de,
tails of this settlement and take cogniz,nce eff

Italy will not join any diplomacy hostile to
Russia. The French government approved
these conditions before they were offered to
Prussia by England. Austria goes with En-

The WAR News from Europe, for the past
week has been ci the most exciting character.
Not 70 much the 0ciuai war now existing bo
tween France and Prussia, as the threatened
war between Russi, and England, which NAV
involve the whole European Continent in a
fearful struggle. The quarrel has grown out
of the Eastern question: which Ia an old quar-

Russia has made formal demand for a
modification or the abolition nj those articles
of the treaty Of 1856 forbidding the Russian
feet from entering the Daldane les and the
Bcsphorus from the Black Sea, limiting the
Russian feet in the Black Sea to ton small
steamers, and prohibiting Russia and Turkey
from maintaining on the Black Sea coast any
military or marine arsenal In other words
that she will no longer observe the treaty of
1856 touching the neutrality of the Black Sea.
This intelligence at once created popular
clanor in England. as well as throughout
Europe, and Lord Granville has informed The
Russian government that England could mot
give her sanction to the uncerenenious abroya.
