France and Her Neighbors.

Germany, Russia, Italy and England regard in characteristic ways the dis satisfaction of France over the difficult ties of the Grecisn settlement. German prints have noticed in their own way the fact to which we called attention several days since, that on the two important points of international interest France is directly supported by Germany, and by her only. They infer that this isnot an accidental coincidence of the imperial policy with the wishes of France, but that the Chancellor has deliberately sought to put himself side by side with France through sympathy with her gov ernment. Italy catches up the gibes of some English journals over Frances in- terest iu the Greeks, which is idle non- sense from such quarter, for it is indis- putable that the growth of French in- huence in that direction is one of the facts that would be least palatable to Italians. Russia has bitter word which indicates her soreness over the fact that France supported at Berlin the policy of Lord Beaconsfeld, and England grum- bles over France's susceptibilities. But meantime France in Greece and Russia in Bulgaria are the two nations likely to be regarded as friends in the new world that is growing up in the East on the ruins of the Ottoman Empire. .--M r Herald.

ITS SWEET TO THINK.

lis sweet to think, that where'er we rove. We are sure to find something blissful and dear,
 And that, when we're far from the lips we love We've but to make love to the lips we art
 nearl
 The heart like tendril, accustom'd to cling Let it grow where it will, cannot flourish
 alone,
 Bnt will lean to the nearest and loveliest thing It can tWine in itself, and make closely its
 own.
 Then oh, what pleasure, where'er we rove, To be sure to find something still thatis dear And to know, when far from the lips we love, We've but to make love to the lips we are
 near.
 fwere shame, when flowers around us rise, To make light of the rest if the rose isn't
 there;
 And the worlds so rich in resplendent eyes, Twere a pity to limit ones love to pair. Loves wing and the peacock's are nearly alike, They are both of them bright. but they're
 changeable too, And where yer anew beam of beauty can strike, 1t will tincture Loves plume with different
 huel
 Then oh, what pleasure, whereer we rove, To be sure to find something still that is dear, And to know, when far from the lips we love, We've but to make love to the lips we are
