ALondon despatch throws some moro
light upon the recent meeting of.tho
Car of Russia and the Emperor William
ut Berlin. There is no doubt now that
Europe was seriously threatened with a
terrific struggle, on the ground of Prus-
sia's jealousy Of France, resembling very
much the insane jealousy which ancient
Romo had for Carthage, and which, In
that case, ended in the destruction of
the latter power. Bismarck is perfectly
aware that in few years France will
have SO strengthened herself that she
will be in n measure impregnable, and,
therefore, he was desirous of throwing
her back to the situation of 1871, before
she had time to gather strength. The
French are perfectly we'll aware Of his
views on this subject, and the lMoniteur
Official pnper) expressed itself thus not
long ago:
''The legitimate causes Of war are:
The violation of the fundamental laws of
Siaie; foFoiblo deposition; and, finally,
an assault of the foundations on which
the order and right of humanity are
known to rest. EUery other ,odr is an an
righteous one. And where, indeed, wero
the law of nations, If the apprehension
simply of q danger remote would suffice
to disturb the peace of the present? And
if Germany could be persuaded that
France would commit on act of. hostility
because it had healed, say in ten, fifteen
or twenty years, the wounds it received
in 1870 II, what security would the other
powers have? Germany may say, to-mor-
row, that, by way Of necessity, its own
defence calls for the incorporation of the
Dutch hnrbors and colonies. Again, it
may demand Trieste and the Italian
Quadrilateral, under the pretense that,
by uniting the North Sea with the Adri-
alto, itprotects its frontiers against in
convenient neighbors, and to recover the
historical boundary lines of the old Ro-
man. empire, ra this what they desire?'
as atatealiA the dispatches. the Car,
with an eye to. his Asian advance sue
ceeded in cooling the hot blood of Prus.
sia, and war is stayed for the present in
Western Europe. ~l '.-

Napoleon met one day an old soldier
with one arm; he stopped and said to
him: Where did you lose your arm?'
''Sire, at Austerlitz," was the reply.
"And you were not decorated2" asked
the Emperor. "No. sire; I was forgot
ten" "Then." rejoined Napolesn, "here
is my cross for you; I mako you Cheva-
lier." "Ah, SIRE" exclaimed the soldier.
"Your Majesty names me Chevalier be-
cause have lost one of my arms; what
would your Majesty have done if had
lost them both?" II should have created
you officer of the LEGION" answered
Napoleon. Thereupon the soldier in
stnntiy drew his sword and cut off his
remaining arm.

fact is the action Of the Brooklyn Board

RIGA, December 8, 1862, when, by the
sudden confngration Of the cathedral
during crowded service. 1000 women n
mnids and matrons, including the very
flower of the city, perishcd horribly. 1t
was at an evening service, when the
church WIS densely crowded. A cam
phene lamp, used in transparency on
the altar, set fire to the hangings, whence
the flames spread instantaneously along
the elaborate festoons of gauze and
drapery that covered the walls and cell
ings, among which 10000 candles and
camphene lamps were burning. In O
moment, the whole interior was bon
fire, and rain Of blazing oil and burn
ing cloth fell upon the crowd below.
The one door Of the church opened in.
wards and was soon chokcd. In less
than quarter Of an hour, 1000 persons,
including very few men, had perished.
The Chilian Legislature forbade church
illuminations for the future, and ordered
q sufficient number Of doors to be put
into all churches.

A New York letter, of Monday, says:
ga great stir has been made among the
foreign importers by the seizure Of the
store and goods of Philip Schulofr Il Co.,
by the Custom House officers, on account
of alleged under-valuation of invoices of
Grape, ribbons and silks. The ware
houses in Laight street were kept open
to-day for the purpose of facilitating the
examination of the seized goods and
bringing the matter to q conclusion as
quickly as possible. This extraordinary
haste, it would seem, is not without rea-
son. There are several other prominent
firms supposed to be implicated, and it
is the desire of the customs authorities
that they should be proceeded against ut
once, before opportunity is given tho
guilty parties to make way with their
goods. All these cases are understood to
be directly or indirectly part of the Law
renee operations"
