LONDON, May 6.-The Paris correspondent
of the Times telegraphs that uneasiness pre-
walls in well informed circles in Paris. The
most serious minds believe that danger is inn
pending; politicians from abroad, as we'll as
those claiming to be we'll informed at home,
assert that peace or war depends on the ap-
preaching meeting OF the Gar and German
Emperor.
No one denies that q powerful party in
Germany, comprising entire military element,
feels that the lac treaty was too lenient; that
the indemnity has already returned to French
Golfers, that the possession of Belfort by
France is dangerous to Germany; that France
is recognizing rapidly enough and will soon
be able to furnish formidable army to any
alliance with any other nations; that Germany
is no richer than before the war; her finances
and social organization cannot long support
the expense OF the present ornaments and
she cannot disarm in the face of France.
The military party in Germany are con-
WINGED that never was there q moment more
propitious than the present to secure for
their country q long era OF prosperity and
peace. War ought to be promptly under
taken. It is necessary to march on Paris and
take up position where q new peace can be
signed which takes Belfort from France,
limit her active army and exact ten milliards
in twenty years.
Paris could be attacked if France refused to
sign: All the powers have confined them
selves to timid, friendly representation with
regard to the Belgian notes, which only shows
that to finish with France now is q 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 unrectifed.
What may be promptly executed ct an in
significant sacrifice would two years hence
cost oceans of blood. Russia must be con-
WINGED of this necessity.
The Times correspondent adds it would be
untrue to say that these arguments are &C.
cepted even in Germany outside of par
ticular party. It would be equally untrue to
cay Ln0C tQe6o menRceS are Oestlueu w Oo re-
allied. The diplomatic world, even in Ger
many, declares she can not fight against an
enemy who declares for peace.
Honest Germans scout the suppositions. The
Emperor has scruples but the party of i'm
mediate action urge it as duty to sink all con-
siderations in order to save the country They
insist that France be made to accept reissu-
ing treaty, if she will not fight. Germany,
in order to have the right to reproach France
as the cause of uneaSiness, must solemnly
disclaim the above theories.
The Times, in its editorial columns, scouts
the apprehension raised by the alarmists
and the alarmed in Paris.
LONDON, May 6.-In the House of Com
mons, tonight, the Marquis of Harrington
lsked when the debate on the privileges of
he House would be resumed and the budget

strangers, that division be taken to decide
whether the galleries shall be cleared.
The government was charged with wasting
lime over the question Of pri vileges, but OPP
position to the peace preservation bill was
,he real obstruction. The Irish members were
justified in opposing it, and the government
