BEII IN, sept. 2.-SeQan DAY was cele
brated according to custom, with school
fetes, services in churches, parades of
veterans and dinners to the soldiers at
the garrisons. The principal monu-
ments were decorated with wreaths
and the public buildings were covered
with flags. A large imperial crown
wrought out of copper, surrounding the
dome OF the new relchstag building, was
exposed to view for the first time. The
crown forms an imposing ornament,
and drew admiring crowds.
The papers concur in regarding the
situation as grave one. The Reichs-
anzeiger says: With reeollections of
T Sedan is bound up feeling of gratitude
Ter the spirit of self-sacrifce by which
Such brilliant results were obtained ana
satisfaction at the progress since made
IN the sentiment of solidarity leading us
to VOW to hold and protect the blessings
won.
Error in Discrimination.
The Post says: 1t is great error to
dissimulate on the fact that the position
is becoming worse and worse. We cele-
brate the victory that saw arise the au-
rora of the German empire. In recall
ing Count Won Moltke's saying that Ger
many must remain fifty years under
arms In order to keep what she had won
at Sedan, we have no desire to trouble
peace, but ii others provoke war, Ger
many will be reSOlute and will fight as
courageously as twenty years ago, con-
fident in Gods aid.
The Kreuz Zeitung says: If war is
inevitable, it will be struggle Of which
the world has never seen the like. Our
splendid army and generals of proved
| capacity, and the courage and energy of
| the emperor, give us confidence in the
result, which will involve the very ex-
istence of Germany. If we are beaten,
it will be fms Germania.
The Freisinnige Zeltung says: Ger
many unified after Sedan will remain
one In spite of the difference between
the German factions. All are resolved
~ maintain what was got at the cost of
/ much carnage.
Pastor stoecI1er.
in letter to Das Voll1, says: 1.-THE men
of Germany may soon be summoned to
defend the privileges won on the bloody
fields of 10 and to fight for unity, honor
and liberty. At the critical moment,
Catholics, socialists and all Germans
will do their duty"
The National Zeitung says: "Never
before have our minds been so much
filled with the possibility Of being COM
PEELED to fight to retain our winnings OF
1870"
The Tagebatt says that the internal
agitation in Russia is one of the few Sc
curities for peace. The agitation IN
Poland has increased enormously, and
the only hope of the Poles is in the
kaiser, a movement of whose hand will
gather around him all the most desper-
ate patriots.
Apropos of the departure of Emperor
William tonight for the scene of the
Austrian army amaneuvers, the North
German Gazette says: The en-
peror will again bear testi-
mony to the serious import
| attached to the consolidation OF the alli-
ance between Austria and Germany.
The meeting ought to be welcomed as
a sign of the indissoluble nature of the
alliance, and should reinspire the hope
that peace will be maintained.
VIENNA, Sept. 2.-The Deutsch Zei-
tung says: Since the visit of the French
| fleet to Cronstadt the international sit
uaton has been greatly modified. The
German emperor no longer seeks to
visit the car. Uneasiness pervades
Europe. The meeting of Emperor
William and Emperor Joseph has thus
a greater import than 1t would have
had. The official Abend Post sees in
| the presence of Empeor William and
the king of SaXony at the Austrian
| maneuvers continued proof of the firm
ness and security of the dreiOund, and
says that the meeting ought to make
