Although the course of events rendered it I'M
necessary for US to resort to open warfare to
avert the dangers with which he threatened
us, we cannot avoid chasing him among the
most insidious enemies of our country, nor
escape the conviction that wrongs against the
United States as well as against Prussia will
be avenged by his downfall. While he was
intriguing against the Union, Germany was
purchasing a large number of our national
bonds, and rendering immense assistance in
the hour of our greatest need-so that graft
tude on the one hand, as we'll as a lively recol-
lection of actual and threatened injuries on
the other, prompts Americans to favor the
Prussian cause. Aside from all these con-
siderations, we believe that Prussia typifes
the cause of progress and civilization. Slower
to adopt modern and liberal ideas than
France, she holds fast to all that she acquires,
and promises to advance as steadily as Eng
land from absolutism to a constitutional mon
archy, and froma constitutional monarchy toa
republic. Many of her citizens have been
trained in the art of se~lf-government, and if
they can once consolidate a union powerful
enough to protect them from outside aggres-
sion, they will quickly develop a complete
system of internal policy hat will admirably
combine liberty with order. They will have
within themselves every element that has
given power, dominion, prosperity, and great
ness to the Anglo-Saxon race; and if they are
fully rescued from the possibility of assault
by the mercurial Frenchmen, a long career of
peaceful industry and wonderful advance
ment will be opened to them. For centuries
a cry for German unity has gone up from
their midst. The want of it has inflicted
untold misery upon their race, and now that
Napoleon has made a remorseless attempt to
crush their natural and just aspiration, we
cannot wonder at the unanimity of American
feeling in behalf of their Fatherland and
against their desperate and wicked antagonist.

u WAR NE WS.

ME following telegram from New York,
dated yesterday, possesses an interest for all
who are DESTROYS of being kept fully posted
on the great struggle now pending in Eu-
rope:-
81. w. Simonton, General Agent of the Associ-
ated Press, before his recent return from Europe,
closed contracts for a five yea's' alliance with the
Reuter- Telegraph Company Of London, the CONT
mental Telegraph Company Of Berlin, and Hayas,
Berllier & Co.'s agency OF Paris. Under this
arrangement the Associated Press obtains exclusive
use in America of the netos Of the three European
Agencies named, and the services OF all their sub
ordinate agents in every part of Europe and Asia,
including India and China, Africa, Australia and the
Islands Of the Pacific, On the other hand the Asso-
ciated Press shall place it's exclusive services in
America at the disposal Of the European parties to
the contract, who control the only organizations of
any importance for the collection OF news in the
Old World"
In addition to this, it may be stated that
the North German Government has recog-
nized the Continental Telegraph Company of
Berlin as its official reporter, and that its
war bulletin, for the making up of which
every possible official facility will be fur
nished, is to be regularly posted throughout
Germany.
The EVENING TELEGRAPH is the only after
noon journal published in this city which
receives the dispatches of the New York
Associated Press, and it will therefore be the
only afternoon journal oohSch eoM contain the
.fuN and reliable dispatches receiged from
tie three great European agencies a5Ooe
named. Since the first symptoms of the
European war our columns have borne daily
testimony to our purpose Of giving the read
ers of The TELEGRAPH a complete and
varied assortment of news bearing
upon the struggle, outside of our
telegraphic columns; and it is our intention
to continue in this course, affording our
readers the latest, fullest, and most reliable
advioes of the progress of hostilities, both by
telegraph and mail, promptly, illustrated and
explained by carefully prepared original ar
ticles bearing upon the different questions,
localities, and men that come uppermost.
The war between Prussia and France is the
live topic of the day, and the readers of The
EVENING TELEGRAPH will find its columns, in
the future as in the past, taxed to their ut
most capacity to supply them with informa-
ton concerning its fortunes.

TIE EMPEROR AND THE WAR.

THE EMPEROR AND THE WAR. {.
The address of Napoleon III to his army is a
bad imitation of those remarkable documents
with which bis uncle was accustomed to excite
the ardor and fatter the vanity Of the soldiers
of the Republic and the Empire when lead
ing them upon a career of victory. The first
Napoleon was q perfect master of what we
in more modern times call buncombe, but
then he was accustomed to supplement his
high-sounding words by deeds hat proved to
the French army and the French people that
there was something more in them than mere
sound. That the present Emperor is but a
pinchbeck sort of Napoleon after aH-it is
asserted with considerable plausibility that
there is not a drop of Bonaparte
blood in his veins - is nowhere
more palpably shown than in the address to
his army which came across the cable yester-
day. The fne-sounding sentence, GAIL
France follows you with ardent prayers, and
the eyes of the universe are upon you"
sounds like a feeble echo of the words uttered
by the first Napoleon o n July 21st, 1898,
previous to the battle of the Pyramids
Soldiers, from those SUBMITS forty oentu-
ries look down upon you" But the first
Napoleon was agreat general, and his soldiers
knew it, while the third Napoleon is no gene
raj at all, and nobody is better aware of the
fact than the armies that he now proposes to
lead against Prussia. In this address, as well
as in his other utterances, and those of his
Empress, since the breaking out of the war,
an oppressive sense of the strength of his ad-
versaries and the magnitude of the
task before him is almost painfully
apparent, and serves to more than confirm
the suspicion hat he has entered upon this
contest with extreme reluctance, and as the
only means left him to regain his prestige
and to insure the darling idea of his life
the transmission of the throne to his son.
The address expresses a certainty of victory,
but the careful enumeration of the obstacles
to be overcome, the illusions to the strength
of the enemy, and above all the unlucky
reference to Mexico, seem to indicate that
fears of defeat predominant in the Emperor's
mind above his hopes of victory. The Next
can campaign was perhaps the most
serious blunder that the Emperor
committed during his whole reign, and his
disgraceful failure to establish a Latin en-
pire on the Western Continent, combined with
the manner in which he was compelled to
withdraw at the dictation of the United
States, will make the name of Mexico any
thing but an inspiration to a French army
about to enter upon the most infamous war of
the century. The French Emperor has been
agambler with fortune all his life. For twenty
years past he has been a winner; but of late
his luck appears to have changed, and the in
dications are that he is playing his last
stakes, and that a defeat will be total annihi-
lation.

AMERICAN SYMPATHY FOR PRUS-

GA.
The American sympathy for Prussia is mar
yellously unanimous. 1t is cherished by all
classes of citizens, except those who imagine
that neutrality must be carried to the limits
of indifference, and one element of our popu-
lation which is strongly disposed to favor
France. Thu Irish and the French have had
for centuries a fraternal regard which is
evinced now in the popular sentiment of the
cities of the Emerald Isle and in the feelings
of a large proportion of the Irish-Americans.
This attachment is based on similarity of race
or origin, similarity of religion,
and friendly associations. Irish
men have repeatedly fought in
French armies, and Frenchmen have in
turn assisted the vain efforts of ireland to
destroy English supremacy. Catholicism
continues to be the dominant faith of both
countries, and Celtic traits are perceptible in
the individual character of both Frenchmen
and Irishmen. Besides, Ireland has never
surrendered a vague hope that she might gain
substantial military aid from France in the
event of a war between that nation and Great
Britain. These motives are sufficient to
account for the prevailing disposition evinced
by Irishmen, in their native land and abroad,
to sympathize with the Emperor.
Independent of this Irish element of tue
population of this country, a few Seandina-
VANS and Frenchmen, and the politicians who
are devoted to Irish interests, America is
scarcely less unanimous than Germany herself
in favoring the Prussian cause. The motives
which incite this feeling are various and pow.
erful. An unimpassioned and unbiased
Judgment on the merits of the controversy
~inclines intelligent readers to cast their sym
pathies against Napoleon, on the ground thai
he is a wanton aggressor. We cannot easily
forget or forgive his desire to interfere il
our own war, and his attempt to establish al
empire in Mexico. He wished to open a Wild
field for French ambition on this continent
and if the loyal States had been unable t.
crush the Rebellion he would hay'
endeayered to seize q large por
~son of American territory. Hi
Mexican expedition was based on the grand
loouent idea that he was to become tn
protector of the Latin race in North America
and tho founder of Kingdoms which woul
have been a standing menace to our republic

WArERBuRY.--Our correspondent gives an in
teresting account of Mr.. Carswell's graphic tenn
perOnce address on Saturday evening, for which
we have no room.
The Green Mountain Seminary at the Centre
is said to be receiving fair degree Of patronage
the present number of scholars exceeding that Of
the Winter term about thirty, though not 50 large
as that of the Fall term, A still greater increase
is anticipated 1t is very desirable that all the
friends of this Institution should make strong
and united effort to give it a high rank among
similar Seminaries. May We not hope that any
" unpleasautness which may have caused tenn
porary doubts of its entire success, may pass out
of mind, when the efforts and sacrifices shared by
80 many are remembered. The good will and cor
dial cooperation of the community will be found
al-important to the perfect success Of almost any
literary institution.

An Explanation.

CABor, Feb 90, 1870.
Msssrs. Poland There was a piece printed
in the Argus of Feb. 81, about one Roswell Laird,
Oyerseer OF the Poor of Cabot, being very
economical man-saying that he went to Danyile
to move one Collins to Cabot, and the day chosen
was stormy and cold, and that | sent Collins
boys with the cow that Collins told me that the
boys had had nothing To eat that morning, and
were too thinly clad and againt all the remon-
STRANGE of Collins, turned deaf ear that when
humane people of Cabot heard the boys were on
the road, there was large force went in pursuit
of them, and when found, the COW was lying
down and the boys standing by her that the boys
were carried to Cabot that one was badly frozen
and the other badly of: all Of ehich is un-
true. The boys had their breakfast that morning.
Collins told me the boys could take the COW over
as well as man, and neither Collins nor his wife
said one word about their being thinly clad, or
having no breakfast. II was warm and please mt
when we started, and until we got to Danville,
but it turned out to be stormy. When we got
10 the town with the family and goods, Mr..
fancy, the man ON the farm, went to meet the
boys, and Francis Knapp overlook him. That
was all the force there was after them and when
found they were in Cabot Village, opposite The
ron IAnce's house When asked IT they were
cold, they said no. Mr.. Knapp took them and
carried them to the town farm, when they found
ono of the boys had frozen his toe, but he has not
been confined to the house with it for one day.
The boys are well.
Now if the gentleman that put that piece in
the Argus will make himself known to me, he
shall he suitably rewarded.
