-Bismarck's resignation of the Chancel
lorship, q disconnected account OF which
we have received by kilograms, is causing
more than ordinary interest to be taken
European affairs. Since 1S47, Bismarc
has taken an active part in all that pertain
cd TO tho German States. A law-graduat'
b distinguished parliamentarian, successf'
diplomatist and talented author, his abil
ties recognized by the powers, be succeede
In attaining eminence aud notoriety
once to be epvied and dreaded. His III
aim seems to have been, and oil his effor
were directed to securing, what he
pleased to term German Unity, which j
terpreted means the harmonious organic
ton of ell the German-speaking people In
one grand whole. He cannot be classed
of the Ultra m ontane element. Ultra mo
tame doctrines found in him no sympath
and In this particular he has become mo
widely celebrated than be would perha
otherwise have been. Between Church al
State he discerned line which he endea
ored To draw, and to that end devoted
time, energies and talents. Education
him was civil and not religious MATE
His successes and defeats are known to
who have heard his name. Bismarck
name 10 one revered by many, although,
all men truly great, his enemies are not
few. Should bis resignation take effect
present, the war between Germany and
val Europea, powers will doubtless
precipitated. None Of the European stat
men are to be better regarded than b
narck, and his resignation from positi
10 prominent may we'll cause fear In
heart of those who care for the welfare
the German Empire.
