Elects of the Cars Speech.
The Standards dispatch from Berlin says
the Cars speech has produced q most
alarming impression in political circles
there. 1t has depressing effect on the
Stock Exchange.
The Pail Mall Gazette this afternoon in
its leading article says: Once more dark

news that comes both from st. Petersburg
and COnstantin0ple gives us warning that
what is cslled feeling may yet conquer
wisdom, and that certain degree of insa-
liability already threatens to creep into the
judgments Of those upon whom depends
the tremendous issue Of peace or war. The
speech of the Gear is not the most alarming
incident of the time, but it is far from pleas.

it an evil if not fatal precedent to accept

government, and if it be correct it is need
less to dwell upon the seriousness of the
news. No comment could enhance the
gravity of 80 critical o situation as it re-

in this naughty message is really dominant
at COnstantinOple, the prospect is gloomy
one, indeed.
