The uncertainty i'm the political affairs OF
Continental Europe is very clearly Illus
traied i'm the report that it has been sug-
gested by Austria that conference Of ihe
Empcrors of Austria and Germany and The
King of Italy be held at once, to allay the
profound anxiety now prevailing in Italy
and Austria as 90 the effect of the rcsigna-
ton Of Bismarck upon the policy Of peace
that has hitherto been pursued by the Ger
man Empire.
The roueatcd assertions Of the German
Emperor since Bismarck's retirement into
private life that he would maintain peace
at any cost have produced no real impress
sion upon the public opinion of Europe.
There is a feeling abroad from one end OF
the continent TO the other, that a war may
Doe precipitated at any moment by the
restlessnoss and the ambition of William.
His determined action with reference TO
Bismarck. which shows as much resolution
Of character as any step that has been re-
corded i'm the histories Of monarchs as young
as himself, is "a sign that cannot be ignored
that he is q man with definite purposes and
with the answering energy TO carry them
10 their iurthest conclusions. IL only rec
mains 10 Doe seen whether De has the hu-
mainly and the,patrotism TO abstain fromhis
plunging his country into war except for
reasons which the most pacific and conser-
yatiVe King could not overlook.
1t is stated that the Emperor has notified
Austria and Italy that the triple alliance
will not be disturbed by the resignation Of
Bismarck, but it is not probable that this
declaration of intention Will carry very
great weight in the minds of the people
whose interests are most intimately in-
y0lyed. II is clearly recognized now by alb
that the peace of Europe is dependent upon
the viii Of young prince who is lacking
neither i'm ability nor force of character,
but who is headsirong, rash. resolute. im-
patient Of advice, and with the strongest
taste for military affairs.
Who doubts but that if war were 90
break out, William would assume at once
supreme military command, and lead his
armies personally into the field in the hope of
riyaling, if not surprising the glories Of The
Great Frederick. The mere prospect #
such career must hold ont Infinite tempta-
ton to one of the German Emperors tenn

protext to declare war, and 20 rush his ar
