SAMOA Ann CoR.rrrroN.

For two or three days the telegraph
has been advising us of a suspicion of
a "Babcock" meddling in the affairs of
Steinberger's little island kingdom. II
is we'll known that Steinbsrger, avow-
eddy in the interest of the United
States, has for some years been the
controlling power with the islands, and
under the title of Premier has welded
the supreme authority. At the time
of Steinberger's assumption of place 1t
was generally understood Throughout.
the country that the organization OF a
kingdom in the Samoan Islands was
undertaken by our Government in the
interest of our commercial and naval
necessities. A great deal of fun was
poked at the Administration on ac-
count of the affair, especially by the
illustrated papers, but the general
of the country recognized the adj
visibility OF our securing a naval sta
ton in the South Pacific. During the
time that has elapsed since Steinberg-
er's departure for Samoa not syl-
liable has been uttered by the Admin
istration, or by the papers repre-
,senting the Administration, casting
any discredit upon his mission.
But now ome the news that some
unknown person has made known
that Steinberger's appointment was
bought for money from Babcock, the
latter communicating directly with the
President. Right upon the heels of
this ruinor a communication of
Hamilton Fish to the House of Rep
resentatives, i'm which be denies that
Steinberger eve had any official status
at Samoa. If such was the case, why
was Steinberger, without contradiction
from our Government, permitted for
years to appear as an agent OF our Gov
ernment? And why is it that only
after years have elapsed an official de-
NAL of the general understanding is
promulgated? We submit that the
reports of the Presidents connection
with and sympathy tor Babcock are
so numerous and prima facie, 70 we'll
founded, that a decent regard for the
honor of the Executive requires a con-
vincing and an authoritative denial.

THE TURKISH QUESTION.

our IOEeISu OlSpaCcu6S luulCStte u
growing dissatisfaction between the
great Powers on the eastern Ques-
tion." Austria, it would appear,
threatens an armed Intervention in
case Servia should declare war against
the Turk. Based upon this threat it
is reported by the Czech-that is the
Bohemlan-journals that Russia has
assured Servia Of her protection in the
event Of Austria's Intervention. The
cloud of war is daily growing more
threatening. Despite the friendly"
interposition of the three Emperors, the
Herzegovinan instruction will not
down; and the insurgents are aided by
the sympathy, and ere long may be
reinforced by the material aid of Ser
via, Bosnia, Croatia, Roumania and
all the kindred Sclavonic provinces Of
Southeastern Europe. Should Aus
tria, as is implied, intervene in favor
of the present status, and Russia in
terpose in behalf of her Sclayonic
cousins, the Insurgents, a clash of farms
between the two great Empires will be
unavoidable. England could mo- re-
main passive in the presence of such
a struggle. The integrity OF her high
way to the East, the very existence OF
her Indian Empire, forbids a Russian
control of the Mediterranean, and in
such a quarrel the result of a single
handed contest between Russia and
Austria could but be the establishment
of a new st. Petersburg It CONSTANT
nople. England would, in self lefense,
stake her last dollar and her last
mar to avoid such a contamination
and the red cross of st. George would
again wave over thousands of worthy
successors of Nelson and Coliingwood
in a struggle to maintain the ancient
freedom of the seas. France and Ger
many might remain neutral, but it is
hardly possible that the mighty Ger
man nation, craving after unity, co uld
view with Indifference an opportunity
of restoring to German rule the Ger
man-speaking people of the lower
Baltic, now under Russian rule; anc
on the other hand, France, already
restiye under E%ngland's purchase OF
the Suez canal. and chafing under her
late defeat, would be- only too ready to
fly to arms.
On the whole it appears to us that a
spark dropped by Russia Or Austria
upon the banks of the Danube may
kindle an European war with Russia,
Turkey and France, allied against Aus
tria, Germany and England.
The results of such a conflict it would
be impossible to foresee. 1t would
indeed be a conflict of the giants, and
might change the face of the political
world. or one thing we in America,
and particularly in S%ilverland, may as
sure ourselves; and that is, first: that
a general European war would not
only restore to the United States her
ancient commercial supremacy, but
would assure to our mercantile marine
the entire carrying trade of the world;
and, second: thgt a war between Rus
STA and England would so disturb the
existing status in India as to assure Ne
