A European War Sensation.

LONDON, August 23-The Times
commenting on the Berlin North Ger.
man Gazette's art Gle referring to at.
tacks Of French journals on Germany,
and declaring that France alone
threatens the peace of Europe, says
the irritation shown by the latter paper
signed, as the French press, upon
the whole, has been very moderate
in regard to Germany. The article is
rather an expression of the general i'm
patience at the conduct Of the French,
and ought to convince them that their
expeditions in various parts of the the
world do not add in the smallest degree
to rAeir influence in Europe.
The article of tie North German Ga
z't'e startled Paris, alarmed Europe,
and caused prices on the bOurses of
Paris, Vienna and Berlin to fall. The
press everywhere express surprise at
the GaZette's attack on France, and
wCnder as to what its object is. The
Fench papers repel the charges con.
tanned in the article, and intimate that
France is better prepared now to say
that Prince Bismarck is seeking a
preteXt for Il quarrel or for the imposi-
tion of fresh army burdens.
The Austrian press ask if the article
means war. The English journals think
that the warning was overdone, and
Thar he cause for it was Insufficient
IL w"n,d not be wise, they say, 10 at
tach 700 much significance to the ar'i-
clr.
sPARIS, August 23.-The Temps points
out he coincide nee in time OF the publ
cation of the North German Gazette $
ar icle and the summoning of the Reich
stag, which, 1t says, will probably be-
asked to vote fresh military credits.

The usual mOnotony of mo cases
was broken at the Municipal Court this
morning, by miserable native OF sunny
Italy who was In the dock, having been
arrested yesterday by officer Tihbett as
a tramp or vagraDt. The man could
net speak word OF English, and Officer
Tucker was sent to pet the Italian who
keeps IA stand at Sixth and Market
streets to act as interpreter. Hereturn
/ ed in few minutes with the word that
the man said he could not come, as III
had no one to attend to his business.
City Solicitor Turner advised tht
Judge TO issue Il subpoena, but he re-
piled that he did not wish to bring hin
against his will. Officer Tucker started
out again and soon returned with an
Italian, who after talking in that Ian
guage with the prisoner for few
minutes, informed the Court that his
ZANE was Michael Antonio, and thai
he wanted to get work. Officer ribbett
stated that the man had been begging
from house to hous" in the eastern part
of the city for some time, and the
Judge committed him for 40 days.
City Solicitor Turner filed an infor-
nation in the case Of William Bacon,
who is charged with maintaining a

Ifnext Sunday is clear day there +
no doubt but this city will b. filled Mil
colCred people, many Of whom MIL
come from u distance, and the questj@|
arises what provision Is there Tor tha,
accommodation? There will no ,ous

where they can 70 and obtain "A llr

TO goto hotel where they can be pns
erly accommodated, and it is "a fact tL,,
there Is no such place In this city.
Sometime ago, when application WA
made for license for theFOuntain hons
on French street above Eighth, it WA
said that the intention OF the proprIgn
was to provide respectable plas
where colOred people, strangers In Thu
city, would be accommodated in frs
class manner, and several represent,
tive colored men of this city complain
that no attempt has been made Oh III,
part of the proprietor to fulfill then

lies. II is about time that some or.
started hotel for colored people in this
city, and if it had been understood
when Fountain applied for his license
that the place was only TO be kept as
har-room, it is probable there would
have been IA remonstrance againS
granting it, as there are two churcAs,
in the immediate neighb rhood.
1t Is said that the basement at hi,
house is uuoccupied, and that wheua
person applied to Mr.. Fountain for the
use OF it next Sunday, for the purpose
of selling eatables, he told him that i.
could be had for a $40 bill in advance
and one half of the profits, terms which
of course he could not comply with.
1t is probable that a determined resis
tance will be made at the November
term of Court to renewal of the licensr
unless some different arrangements are
made.

CLOSE OF CAMP.

held before and after night preaching,
in St. Paul's and Sloan tents, the first
led by Rev. Joseph f. Smith of Mt Sa.

meetings were continued until midnight
and even after that hour many lin.
gered and engaged in singing spiritual
hymns.
The usual form Of closing camp
meeting by marching around the
grounds was rot adhered to, buta num-

preacher in charge, and Father Hancr,.
complimented them with a serenade Of
spiritual songs in front of their tents

Negotiations were in progress all tl'
afternoon for lease Of the grounds
for another series of camp meetings by
the Wilmington Methodists, including
st. Paul's and Union circles, with tbr
privilege of all others who may desire
to unite with the association JudTH
Clayton was on the ground and drr"
up the lease, which was signed in tue
evening by both parties The lease Il
tor five years, with the privilege OF 'A'
tending it for five years more If fdeslrr''
1t is the intention of the Wilmington
people to fix up the grounds and tents ID
first class style, and to make 1t the sur
cesstul rival even of Chester Heights
for purely camp meeting purposes. II
is said that the cd lessees of the gro'lhu
and the Chester Heights people were
opposed to the lease, but as only the
Wilmington people and Mr.. johnson
the owner of the grounds, were cor
cerned the opposition amounted 10
nothing.
1t was noticeable in the evening, how
ever that the Chester Heights and 81
loan people were conspicuously abSelI''
after the lease was cOnsuminated
The Wilmington people are .iubilal',,
as they have for number Of years hHa
practically no say in the arrangements
for camp to which they furnished the
principal support. Now the case Is r.
