Fru's'@s Military Prsparations-Earope
Anticipation OF War.

rrussia's Military Prspara,ions-Europeaa
Anticipation OF War.
A HERALD special telegram from Berlin
wbich appears in our columns to-day supplies
matter for anxious comment, not only on the
subject of the existing state Of the relatiops
of North Germany towards France. but
equally as to the prospect of the speedy
initiation OF another war in Europe.
Prince Bismarck is the directing IL not
the controlling, power which moves the vast
national leverage Of his country In the direc-
ton of military conflict. We are assured that
the German Premier engages himself in advo-
eating continuance of the preparations for
war in the Prussiau capital. The recent Par
liamentary vote for the according to the
Prussian government o prolongation Of the
war budget estimate for the space of three
years, without legislative supervision as to
the application of the money, renders Bismarck
sort of Jupiter Tonans In Europe, in addition
to his being the first councillor OF the Kaiser's
Cabinet. Prussia is TO have an army of regu-
lar troops numbering nearly half a million OF
men. The bolt may be hurled against
France. The French democracy may have to
endure still further the penalties which attach
to the sins Of former Imperialism, combined
with the anticipatory infiction of chastise-
ment intended as warning to the members Of
the International 10 the surrounding coun-
tries. Bismarck, as we are told, c0ntemplates
a military reoccupation Of the six departments
of France which were hostaged to Germany at
the close of the late war. People inferred
that the Prince has become convinced that
Theirs tenure of Presidential power in France
is Of very precarious nature. Perhaps he ID
well informed on the subject. He may thus
be anxious to pit his power against the Euro
pean democracy at its most hopeful centre.
A Bonapartist demonstration has just taken
place In the streets Of Paris, with
out let or hindrance from the authori-
ties. This must be watched also. The man
who inherits even the ''gloom OF the glory" Of
Jena and Austerltz may become dangerous
again. Hence Bismarck remains watchful;
watchful of Frances anxious concerning the
propagandism Of the radicals in Europe.
President Thiers is, perhaps, provident in
originating the project of new French loan.
He may require all the four hundred millions
of francs, and many more hundreds of mill
lions, for the preservation of the very life Of
the renewed republic Of France, or he may
want them for the purpose Of checking Russi-
fcation In the Baltic.

Tho Herald's Ship News Reports -vnluc
Of tho Steam Yachts.

Of tho Steam Yachts.
To show the value Of the HERALp's shin
news reports to our merchants, we may say
that in the last three days the following arri:
walls have been reported ahead of those jour-
nails which claim to be commercial exclu-
sively:-Ship Chancellor, from Liverpool; the
ship British viceroy, from Calcutta; the ship
General Mcclellan, from Liverpool the bark
Carleton, from Cadiz; the bark Mia Madre,
from Marseilles; the briggs Callaja and X.
B. Cove, both from Havana the brig A. M.
B., from Cape Breton, and the brig Alpha, from
the West Indies. Can anything be palmer from
this exhibit than that the HERALD possesses
more value to those who are interested in ship
ping than any other paper9 We think not.
And 1t has been the case for years past-since
the present organization Of our ship news de-
partment-that our marine reports have been
fuller and much moro reliable than those OF
any paper In the country. When an arrival
Is reported in the HERALD 1t can be depended
upon. Our steam yachts take nothing for
granted, as is often done by those who profess
to be accurate marine reporters. They do not
return vessels as having arrived because they
have been spoken hundreds Of miles Off shore.
They do their work thoroughly. They 60 to
sea for that purpose, and when they bring tho
news to the city that vessel is below, the
owner or consgnee may believe IL to be 50

THE RIoToUs AGITATION RENEWED IN BEL
GIuM.-The cable kilograms from Brussels
which we publish to-dsy go to show that
the Belgian capital remains deeply agitated
in consequence of the public opposition to
recent government appointment. Parliament
was excited indoors, the people inaamed and
almost uncon srollable, yesterday. A member
of the Legislature who supported the nomina-
ton of N. de Decker to the control of the
Educational Board in very prominent man
ner was mobbed in his dwelling and great
damage done to the mansion. The aspect Of
riot was renewed and maintained in Brussels.
The tocsin of municipal alarm was sounded at
one moment during the day and the civic
guard mustered in great force The exist
ence of such condition of affairs even tenn
porarily must be cause of heavy pecunlary
loss to an industrial, productive and trading
nation like Belgium, where labor is subdivided
most infinitely and the profits of individuals
small. The exciting cause of all this trouble
has not, perhaps, been shown on the surface
with any degree of distinctness even yet.

AUSTRIA AND THE CIsLEITHAN CABINET -
The Austrian empire has experienced the
consequences of another ministerial change.
The construction Of the Cslcithan Cabinet
was completed yesterday. Prince Adolph
Auersperg assumes the portfolio of President
Of the Council. or his colleagues in the
different departments Won Plener and Herr
Streymer are the only persons who are known
to distinction by their political exertions and
public services in the past. The others are
new men. The continued existence of this
dual system of Cabinet rule under executive
attempts for the maintenance Of imperial
Capitalization has become exceedingly de-
moralizing TO the different peoples who are
subject to the authority Of Austria, as well as
being highly detrimental to the interests of
the country at large. The nationalities re-
quire the full right of selfgovernment, and
they must have 1t by some means or other,
constitutional or otherwise.

THEIRS LESSON TO THE CHNEsE.-Presi-
dent Thiers Impressed" the members of the
Chinese Embassy by his words and action
during an audience which he accorded to
them on Thursday evening. The truth is, as
will be seen by our cable telegram, that the
President OF the French republic frightened
the Celestials by his fervent Christian denun-
citation Of the treatment which the Church
missionaries OF France have received in the
Central Flowery Kingdom. The disciples Of
Confucius were confounded by the vigorous
simplicity of the aged statesman. Their i'm
perialistic ideas were also "taken down" con-
siderably by the personal animation Of the
head Of the young republic which possesses
such valuable inter ests near TO their own ter
ritory in Asia. They have, no doubt, made
o note Of the event, and will thus be ena-
bled to speak Of the indestructbility Of the
outside democracy, when they get to Pekin.

fraud and corruption. If 1t had been
necessary to publish the accounts of Irgersoll,
Garvey and Keyser before payment the
wholesale plunder Of the city treasury to
which we have had to submit could never
have been undertaken. The forgeries COM
mitted upon Keyser and others would have
been at once detected. II the publication of

before one Of them could draw his money the
people would not have been called upon

which this proposition is subjected-the

vide carefully against any future squandcr-
ing of the public money upon obscure
sheets, printed for the sole purpose of robbing
the city, or upon political organs kept alive
at the expense Of the taxpayers, and the cost
of publishing the department accounts aud

The Popc's Position In Rome-iaibrnltar

The Popc's Position In Rome-bibrnltnr
Rock Of Ages.
We are assured by cable telegram from
Rome that Cardinal of the Church has just
asserted positively that the Holy Father will
not leave the Eternal City unless he is COM
PEELED to do so by force and violence. As
this contingency will not arise, it would appear
as if the Pope is certain to remain in the
Vatican to the moment of his death. On the
o:her hand, we have report from Madrid
which states that England is disposed to
restore Gibraltar to Spain after the conclusion
of favorable negotiations on both Sides
Placing our two dispatches in juxtaposition,
the contents of one may serve to explain the
intelligence which is conveyed in the other.
The Holy. Father will not be forced from Rome
Perhaps he could be coaxed to go voluntarily,
and to make his future residence in Gibraltar.
Here he would realize in his own person
the infallibility of the promise OF the
tn es Petrus, and stand forth on
rock as the visible representation of
the Church which is built on the Rock of
Ages. King Amadeus of Spain could aid in
the crowning work, his father, the King of
Italy, be reconciled to the hierarchy by the
performance of penance, and Charity and
Hope radiate from the Mediterranean all over
the world. Gibraltar-the Rock.
