War Rumors from Europe-Cuba's
Fate Involved in the Result.

WASHINGTON, July u. = Diplomatic
circles in this city appear to be pretty
well shaken up by war rumors from Eu-
rope, and il is the subject Of conversa-
tion hourly among them. 1t is easy TO
perceive the general belief is that hos
tilities will speedily follow the threaten
ing attitude of France and Prussia.
Many foreign representatives who were
Off rustieating have returned here in no
little agitation.
Baron Lebrer, Austrian Minister, and
Baron Geralett, Prussian Minister, had
an interview with Secretary Fish to-day.
and encountered each other amicably at
the State Department. Berthmey, the
present French Minister, shrugs his
shoulders and says very little on the sub
jeet. In the threatened clash Of arms
in Europe, Cuba's fate is considered to
be involved in the result.
Rear Admiral J. A. Dahlgren, OF the
United States navy, died this morning Of
heart disease, at his residence 10 this
CITY.

A More Peaceful Aspect.

PARIS, July II, p.m.-The political
developments to day are of more peace
full nature.
An informal reply of King William of
Prussia 10 the protest Of France has
been received. He consents to with
draw from Prince Leopold the sanction
of his claims as head of the family of
Hohenzolleron, but not as King of
Prussia, The French Cabinet intimate
that this CONCESSION Is insufficient. Leo
pold himself withdraws from tho candi-
dature of the throne of Spain.
A peaceful solution is now possible,
unless France asks the execution Of the
treaty Of Prague.

of the State The convention was con-
frolled by men independent OF politics.;
conservatism Of speech and action pre-
vailed, and the result is ticket which
the Avalanche can indorse warmly
We'll, unblushing effrontery is no name
Cor his cool impudence The Avalanche
used its utmost endeayors to kill the
convention in its bud, and had the ten
der nurses Of the Republican Banner,
Jackson Wing, and some Others of the
same sort, to aid in the euthanasy Of the
ill-starred bantling. Up to the last 1t
struggled to convince its readers that it
was simply secession move got up by
some hot-heads, and would inevitably
fall through. 1t made great mistake,
and has not the manliness now to own
it, but adopts the ticket as if II were OF
its own making, and abuses those who
were instrumental in getting up the Con-
yention that has terminated SO triumph
antly, in this incorporate language:
A few extravagant, hot-headed, I'M
thinking. rampant secession and destruc-
tive Democratic persons in this city had
the peurile audacity to mark out Tor the
delegates from Memphis what they were
to do. and what the convention was to do.
The men were irrevocably fixed, and the
State was to have Supreme Bench com,
posed of Democratic John browns,
men that never learned anythingin their
lives and never forget anything.
Now, everybody who knows anything
of the Democrats here, is aware that
this is as wide of the mark as inten-
tional error could get There are no
such Democrats in the city as are here
represented, and no such programme
was chalked out as suggested by the
Avalanche. 1t is useless to follow the
eccentricities of a crazy politician any
further; but if the independent journal
do not have lucid intervals, it will be
well occasionally to revert to these gems
sufficient to form coronet for a very
prince of modern independent journal
ism.
For the present, it is some satisfaction
that the Avalanche is pleased with the
Democratic Judicial ticket, and may
forego some of its intended blows at the
Democracy itself We are perfectly
content. 1t is such q ticket as we an
ticipated, and although Mr.. Ewing sub
mitted his name to the Convention, it
is not upon it, Col Pete Turney being
preferred instead. The harmony of the
