from Prussia. Existing establishments are
forbidden to receive new mem bers, and their

bodies engaged in the work of education, which
may prolong their existance four years, and of
those whose object is the care of the sick, which
may continue their organization, but are liable
to dissolution at any moment. Associations
thus optinued are to be su biect to the super
vision of the Government on cials. The prop
erty of converts is not to be condscated, but it
will be temporarily administered by the State.
The Com mittee of the Prussian Diet have
prepared q bill declaring old Catholics entitled
to participation in the use of Catholic Church
es, cemeteries and revenues, according to their
number.
APPREHENsIoNs OF ANOTHER GERMAN WAR
IN FRANCE.-The Paris correspondent of the
London Times telegrapbs that great uneasinesB
prevails in well-intormed circles owing to the
impression that peace or war depends upon
the approaching interview between the EN-
peror William and the Gar of Russia. No one
denies that powerful party in Germany, COM
prisipg the military element, feels that the
late treaty Was too lenient: that indemnity
has already returned to French Golfers that
the possession of Belfort by France is danger
GUS to Germany that France is recognising
rapidly enough aud will eoop be able to fur
nlsh formidable army to any alliance with
any other nation that Germany is no richer
than before the war her finances aud social
organizations cannot long support the expense
OF the present ornaments, and she cannot dis
arm In the face of France. 1t is necessary, they
say, to march on Paris and take up a position
Where new peace can be signed, which takes
Belfort from the French limits her active
army ana exaots ten milliards in twenty years
Pans could be attacked if France refused to
sign all the powers have confined themselves
10 timid, friendly representation with regard
that to finish with France now is a duty to
Germany, and humanity. Europe will never be
tranquil while the blunder of the treaty
which leaves France ready to revive and re-
enter the struggle, is unrectihed. What may
be promptly executed at insignificant sacrifice
