London. Jan. A." The Pail Mail Gazette 10
fsrring to the correspondence between Count her-
bert Bismarck and Sir Robert Morier tie British
Ambassador 10 Russia, in reference to the charges
that the latter sent information to Marshal Bazane
of German military movements during the war OF
1870 saws it regrets that Count Herbert dld noo
profit by the chance Sir Robert Moner gave MN
20 behave like gentleman and a man OF honor.
sThe Globe says: Count Herbert Bismarcks
rstort was as rude a one as ever one statesman
made to another. He probably desired to emu
late the example Of Mr.. Bayard, but his imlta'oh
was clumsy and without motive. He is efther
statesman lacking the necessary manpers to apoio-
eize for allowing himself to Dc
errcQiously befooled, or his credunty
deliberate and he secretly approves Of uhe rumor
no started and finds enjoyment in insult at the
expense of anybody who Is known 10 nave DeeH
Emperor Fredericks friend
"The Star" says: Every Englishman will un-
h.<,tatincly scaut Sir Robert Morier OF the ohare'
AGAINST him and which has caused him to %
subected to absurd and odious insult Pr'hce
Bismarck, it says, is incensed because the pup
Hcation of Emperor Frederick's diary robbed him
of his glory
aTbe Daily Telegraph after expressing re-
eret that Count Herbert Bismarck is unable 10
give a better answer to Sir K ID. Morler, says
II there there is no way of repudiating calamnles
AGAINST our Ambassadors which pretend TO DC
official q way ought to be found or made to deitnd
them from the kind of journalism represented Dy
the Cologne Gazette"
The Daily News says: Perhaps Sir L.
Mcrier's letter displays rather more irritation
than it is good for diplomatist to show. On the
other hand, Count Herbert's reply lacks apprecla-
mon of Morier's position and extreme provoca-
ton. ~
"Tbe Standard says: We can say little Tor
tho discretion of Morier and still less for the
sense of honorable obligation entertained py Oouhl
aIbe Times SAYS: We regret the result OF
Morier's appeal to Count Herbert Blsmarch. ine NE
responsibiiity for calumny so gross ougnt 10 pe
either manfully assumed or frankly repudlated
There is no reason to disbeleve Delne In conse-
ouence of Bazaine's testimony, which can be oniy
ttoo.od as worthless We may take the liberty
of pointing out to Prlnce Blsnarck anu Ms you
national intercourse is not facilitated by the adop,
tion of barrac room manners apparently copleu
from the worst days of Napoleon, when ne was
tfampling upon Prussia. ~ ..;,o
The Tlmess" Berlin correspondent says ne tnlnks
g. probable that third person in London I'M
narfed the news to Marshal Bazaine without
Moricrs authority. ,,.., -.
ferring to the Morer affair says that Count Heroer,
Bismarck, in the interest OF Germanys hohor' VIII
be obliged to step out of the Official hmi's n'poseu
upon him. 60 ;,;.

attache at Vienna is personal aid de-camp OF the
Emperor He is now in Berlin, and recently took
luncheon with the Emperor. Delnes nTst report
is dated April 1886, and his second November,

Geffcken affair.
