Opelousas, Sept Ia, 1884.
The Great Creator and Father of the uni

Companion was companion indeed, and Ope'

A Foreign Horoscope.
N. o. Times.Democrat.

n. O. Times. Democrat
A very ugly aud acrimonious feeling
prevails between England aud France,
and this is rendered serious and signi-
hcant by the strong appearance of Il
concert of action between France and
Germany. The evidences as to. this
concert are numerous and genuine.
There seems to be no doubt that
the wounds of Sedan and Gravelotte
are healed and that the two
great gladiators are shaking
hands over Alsace and Lorraine.
The alliance is sinister and formida.
BILE one With Germany must go Aus
tria and Italy. The tripartlte agree
ment is based upon conditions too
serious to admit of a rupture and even
were it otherwise, there is a common
bond which must hold them together
in any event-the jealousy of England's
power and resentment of her aggres-
sive tendencies. Holding Gibraltar
and Suez, commanding the Mediter-
ranean as though it were some trivial
estuary, controlling lines of commune
cation between Europe and Asia and
supervising the barbors of France,
Italy, Austria, Turkey and Russia,
England has grown so great as to Eu.
initiate 10y her mere existence every
one of the great nations of the world.
The pressure of her supremacy must be
an iutolerable affropt to France. Rus
STA, Austria, and Italy. Her diploma
cy has deprived Russia of navy and
has converted Turkey and Egypt into
taxing districts. 1t seems the interest
of all of them to cripple Great Britian's
dominating influence in European af-
fairs.
Should this be the situation, this
trouble in China promises to furnish
the pretext for q demonstration. The
English press has been very hos
tile and very acrimonious In it's criti.
cisn, of French proceedings, and very
soon, If the war continues, there is.
likely to be some act Of England's
which will furnish an opportunity.
England will always interfere to pro-
tect or aggrandize her commerce, no
matter how Insignificant it be at the
moment. Commerce is proverbially
cruel, aud England's mercantile Cruz
saders have ever been ruthless. Europe
knows this the world knows it and
these sneers and complaints against
the inhumanity of France in China are
not calculated to soothe a temper al
ready rasped to the verge of endurance.
We may be mistaken mistaken In
supposing that anything will come Of
it-not in the statement that the causes
are all at work but it is none the less
d fact that Europe is at this moment
upon volcano, the rumbling of which
can be distinctly heard.
