EFFECT OF THE RECENT ATTEMPTED AssAss1-
NATION.
LONDON, June ga Berlin dispatch to
the Times says: "The subject OF the con-
gress has become matter Of Indifference,
and even the Grosser-KurfuTst calamity IS
hardly spoken of in the presence Of the at
tempted assassination OF the Emperor. The
country literally trembles with the shock,
and the disgrace is deeply felt everywhere.
That the Socialist ranting should lead astray
a Hoedcl is ineligible enough, but that
doctor Of philosophical intelligent, highly
cultivated individual. and scion of 4
respectable family-could have been
deceived by the absurd philosophy
OF the commune, and stimulated TO
force his individual madness upon the COM
pected. The people were not prepared for
this extreme result OF theories rife in their
midst. II sober, intelligent individual-a
man OF some position. in society, and as
Dirine to scholastic honors-could be be-
trayed into lifting his hand against this kind
hearted old man-the venerable sovereign
of his people, and the living impersonation
of their long. designed unity-there must be
an infection in these doctrines which no one
would have attributed to them 4 few days
ago."

THE THUNDERER" on ENGLAND'S DipLo-
MATIC TRIUMPH.
LONDON. June 5.-.Ihe Times, i'm an edto-
rial article, says: "Seldom has 4 more
honorable triumph been won by diplomacy,
or rather craftsmanship, by any country
than that which, as recorded in the invita-
tons ito the congress, has been definitely
achieved by England. The great Powers
are summoned to Berlin by the German
Government, not to consider few details
OF the treaty of San Stefano, but to discuss
the whole treaty in its relations to sub
sisting engagements, and thus practi-
cally to review the whole position
of the Eastern question. The hasty
generalization and reckless outlines
OF General Ignatieff will be keenly criti-
cised, and it will prove Il very different
thing to draw map OF Bulgaria at San
Stefano, with no critic but pashas in hourly
dread OF the occupation Oh Constantlnople,
and to justify such map before the I'M
partial critscism Of the most experienced
statesmen in Europe"
