cannot be denied that "the present indi'
cations Of the year 1876 being a peaceful
one are not very strong" 1t says; "The
great nations are all preparing for war,
= not for peace. England has at length
taken stand which will render it al
mos, impossible for her to pre-.
serve neutrality in the event OF
collision between the Continental
powers. Her new interest in Egypt,
whatever may be said in its favor, un-
dOubtedly exposes her to some new dan.

the interest she has acquired in the suez
Canal. Sometimes the general anticipa-
tiOn Of war has the effect Of preventing it,
and We hope 1t will SO turn out in the
present instance. But it is not the less
certain that the political atmosphere OF
Europe is Mt this moment heavy with
black Clouds"

NiOn.

BosroN, January 3.-The jury in the
inquest on the body Of Mr.. Kemp, who
was killed by the South Boston gas ex-
plosion, rendered a verdict this afternoon
10 the effect that the explosion which

who had charge OF the drip cocks; also
that the laying Of the gas pipe in the
manner which It was laid was culpably
defective and dangerous; and that the
pipe on the Boston side Of the bridge be-

as follows on the subject OF Spain, Cuba
and United States: l have been furnish
ed with what purportS to be the substance
OF the American and Cuban note. l do
not pretend to give the exact language

out the concurrence Of other Powers,
including Spain. The continuance Of the
attempt 10 govern Cuba from Madrid,
will be fatal 10 all hope Of the restoration
OF peace. Nevertheless Cuba belongs to
Spain, and great share Of the popula-
ton are opposed to the separation. Under
these circumstances the solution OF the
question might le found in establishing a
confederation :: the West Indies resem-
bling the Canadian. Cu"a and Porto
Rico might be constituted i confedera.
ton, with local, independent rights, and
a Governor Genera! appointed by Spain.
The Powers are asked TO join the United
States in proposing st h confederation
and aiding Cuba TO establish it. The
abolition Of slavery would, however, be a
necessary condition, and such pressure
must be brought as would make the in.
surgents cease their warfare. This would
be difficult, but it could be accomplished.
Secretary Fish is emphatic in denying
that the United States desire the acqujsi-
tion Of Cuba. They only Tish peace re-
stored, slavery abolished, aLd commerce
allowed to resume its course. The Pow
ers are asked to express their opinion
upon the proposed means OF accomplish
ing the desired result.
Aspecial from Berlin says Arch Bishop
Lederch Owski's imprisonment terminat-
ed on the Sd OF February. The Catholics
Of Germany propose to celebrate the day
in an appropriate manner. Deputations
from Reichstag and Landtag will wait
on the Arch Bishop and tender their con-
gratulations. II Arch Bishop Lederch
Owski persists in his refusal to acknowl-
edge the jurisdiction OF the new ecclesias-
tical court, or the validity Of its deposit
ton it is expected that the government
will intern him as it did the Bishop OF
Paderborn, unless he prefers to quit the
country.
The whereabouts OF the Arch Bishop
OF Cologne are still secret. The pdtes-
.situng invites the diocesans desiring. 10
present him with their New Years felic-
itations, to leave their cards at its pub
fishing office for transmission.
