There is disposition to snarling between the Paris
and Berlin journals which would be disquieting but
for the utter absence OF reasonable pretext for
quarrel II began with the provocatory allusions to
France made by N. dc Bismarck the debate ir the
German Parliament on tho pending law against tho

very friendly to Germany; but, as regards tho
Paris mission, his sympathios, one way

policy OF France regard to Germany
is clearly defined and generally understood and
approved OF by tho nation that external pressure
short of positive aggression could induce tho govern

NJ de Beust at Paris is likely to BIO as innocuous
