PARIS AND THE LEGITIMsTs.
The family souabble at Frohsdorf arose entirely
from the rudeness of the COmtesse de Chambord.
Her husbands death enabled her to gratify her
bfe-lonp hatred against the Orleans branch. The
Conte de Paris maintained an attitude of approved
dignity. self-respect and prudence. The result Will
rndoubtsdlv be advantageous to the Comte de
Paris's claims, as only very few irreconchaoie
Lecitimists support the Comtesse de Chambord's
conduct.
All accounts agree as to the mutual forbearance OF
The Comte de Paris and the French Government
Neither is likely to precipitate quarrel The Comte
de Paris will certainly not do anything to JUSTIFY
his sexpulsion, but will likely await the development
ofeyents hoping to become the next President. The
first big disaster to the republican Government Will
afford hun his chance 1t is possible, however, that
the Legislature will vote for his exclusion from
France on the ground of his being Pretender.
THE GREAT EASTERN QUESTION.
King Altonso's VISIT to Paris has afforded N. de
Bowtz another opportunity TO air bis remarkable
egotism in The Tmess Paris telegram. Even Amer
lean journalists must yield the palm to him as the
prince of lnterviewers His opinion confirms the
general impression that Spain lis following Italy,
tacitly to Join the Austro-German alliance. -his
expectation in some measure accounts for the IN
trigues credited to republicans against Spain and
Italy.
Considerable interest is manifested among
foreign politicians respecting the nature
of the intervie between Bismarck
and Kalnoky at Salzburg. These, with
Serya, and what is still more remarkable Roumanla
Joining the German alliance, and the prospect Of
Spain following suit after Italy aud keen rivalres
between the representatives of the great Powers in
tie petty Balkan States presage renewed trouble in
Eastern Europe, possibly even before Turkey col
lapses.
These considerations give point to a certain an
noyance that is felt because Lord Harrington in his
Sheffield speech once more endeavored to Tx time
for withdrawing the troops from Egypt. Such an
attempt is njudiclous it paralyzes English reforms
aud discourages the natives who work usefuliy
With the sojourners. The Spectator is very angry
toward Lord Harrington.
MADAGASCAR.
His remark that it is mistake to suppose that
che release of Mr. Shaw removed all differences
between England and France attracts attention. III
Mr. Gladstone had not ex planned that the Pakenham
incident had virtually closed. the public might sup
pose that that phase of the dispute referred to-
II almost appears that England is objecting to
other branches of French policyin Madagascar, and
the publication of the official correspondence is
once more snxiously looked for.
HOME POLITICAL REFORM.
Lord Hsrtington's warning that political leglsla-
ton early in the next session would be inevitable
points to new Reform bill, respecting which Mr..
chamberlan's letter to the Battersca Radicals i'm
plies that the Government has decided to separate
the county franchise from the redistribution. In
one respect this arrangement would be unsatisiac-
tory it would deprive of its strength the growing
movement among English and Scotch members to
eurtail the Irish representation. THIS coup Is
Damocles's sword, which many English constitu-
sncies hope the Government will have courage to
ht fall upon the heads of the Parneltes.
The moderation Of Mr. ParnelPs opening Of the
hlsh campaign has been swept aside by Michael
Davitps artful indictments to outrage. Simulta-
neously we have the fruit of such encouragement
IN the dastardly poisoning of the laborers on O
-boycotted" farm, under even more revolving cir
eamstances than the hooking of innocent cattle
MISS ANDERsoSs TRIUMPH.
Mary Anderson has created a great furore at the
Ayceum Theatre, to which many critics and play"
Eoers have returned from distant holiday resorts.
