ing article, says: sWhen the army of Arab

shall have to make cure the difficulty may
not occur in new form. Egypt Will be 10
our hands. 1t will not be open to Us to re-
tire from the country and leave events to
take their own course. This is the resolve OF
England, and when it becomes ne sAry 10
seek the sancIion of the other powers FOR the
result, the concert of Europe Will be invoked
in sense very different from that with which
we have lately been familiar"
eERMANY's ONLY OBJECT.
BERLIN, August 12.-The Graaz5oten, an
officially inspired organ, says Germany can
not risk the loss of the good will of the other
powers by paralyzing or counterscting their
policy, unless she is absolutely forced 10 do
so. Sue has neither the wish nor right to
play the part of European censor. She will
neither give mandate 10 England to act on
the Nile, nor hinder her from doing what she
may think necessary for British interests.
The interests of Germany have not been
menaced. If they are menaced hereafter she
will have plenty OF time to make her resolu-
tions. Her only aim is European peace,
which viii be m maintained.

of the opinion expressed TO me some time
back by the French minister of foreign
affairs that Psnislsmism is less terrible than
it is painted"
at is impossible to deny that there is un-
fortunately much fanaticism in Egypt" re-
piled Ismail. "I think it has been exag-
gerated. 1t would be deplorable for my
country if anything so retrograde as religious
fansticism should be encouraged. Egypt
needs civilization and the light of education.
She should go forward TO show the world
that Mohammedanism is not incompatible
with modern progress. While / ruled in
Egypt all my efforts tended in this direction,
and it WIS TO thisthat the country owed the
prosperity which it enjoyed"
l then asked Ismail Pasha what would, in
his opinion, be the result of the landing of
Turkish troops in Egypt, but be proiessed
not TO have sufficient data on which to base
an opinion. sIt il SO long," he remarked,
'ssiuce ! was in Constantincple, and my
views would be vaFneless unless were in
the confidence of the Turkish and British
ministries. All l know is that great misfor-
tunes have overcome my country, and trust
that they may soon pass away"
''Do You think it probable" continued,
e'that the present struggle will affect the
French possessions iu Afries?"
Il do not" answered Ismail, and the con-
versation taking non political turn I soon
afterward departed
