Tht Rimori of War la Europe. From the Time The warlike (lespatilies from Burlin, piib linluxl a f'w days since by several of oar Jmleniporaries, are not confirmed by later tele- rams from that quarter. To say nothing of l ho unlikelihood that a note from Count BIs ( nark to the Emperor Napoleon, demanding (lis reasons for arming, and aeking the immo Jiate cessation of warlike preparations, should lie dirulged before it reached the French Cubi jiet it i marvellous that mi oh a demand, if wade puMic, should not have had an unfavor able eil-H't upon the money market. Financial ( irdes are notoriously sensitive, nud are not puppo-d to have a penchant for war. Yet biiiji- then consols have advanced and the stock jnarketa were generally linn. This, iu the faoe of news which must huve been known if cor ject is mimst runarkablu circumstance. It cannot lie that credited warlike news has lost JU t-lleft upon speculators; and yet the sub stance of Ui l'.erliii despatch must have been known in Kuroj long before night through inquiries aeiit from this side. It is also pass ing strati' that recent despatches contain jioth'mg confirming the report. There are other grounds for discrediting the despatch. We will not undertake to say that Count Jii.Hinark has not sent to Napoleon a iHirewptory request to disarm or fight, but only that su. h a step would be very unlike the policy hitherto pursued by the great Prus sian statesman, l'.ven on the supposition that ho wished to make war on France, we cannot Relieve that he would commence by delibe rately insulting the whole French people, and forcing all parties to make common cause with the Fniperor. However divided on questions f domestic policy, Frenchmen are always united upon France. Among no people is there a stronger sense of obligation to country. The leaders of the opposition in the Corps Icgislatif base their attacks upon the Imperial policy on the ground that it has been injurious to France, and that it leads to tho aggrandize ment of Prussia. Tho people of France are divided on this question, and are, moreover, dissatisfied with the Kmperor's scheme of mili tary reorganization. As it would be for the interest of Count Hismark to foment these differences, it is hardly credible that he should deliberately take a step which would at onoe nuite all parties, silence M. Thiers and all the lest of the opposition, and send every French man an eager volunteer into the ranks of the army. Tho reported summons to disarm would be tantamount to a demand that Franco should confess herself defeated before drawing the Fword. Such coercion is sometimes exercised by powerful States upon weak ones, but rarely, upon an equal. The boy who declared that he wouldn't take any sauce from fellows Smaller than himself, acted on tho principle that governs most nations when they want to fight. Thus England tamely submits to the Xamirande Insult from France, but is terribly bellicose towards Spain. Besides, Count Bis- jnark has always kept in mind, in dealing with foreign nations, that "forewarned is fore armed." Up to the very beginning of the late war, he contrived to puzzle not Austria only, but all the rest of Europe, in regard to his de signs; and when the time came for striking, the blow fell without a moment's warning. The military movements alluded to in con nection with this rumor could doubtless bo explained on other grounds than that llismark is preparing for war. Itastadt was au old Federal fortress, from which the Prussian con tingent was withdrawn at the commencement f hostilities between Prussia and Austria. That contingent is now sent back, probably in accordance with an agreement with Baden, in Whose territory the fortress stands. Prussia is already in full possession of Lux embourg; and the people of that Duchy are said to be strongly opposed to being sold to France. Under these circumstances we see no reason to doubt that the steadiness of the European stock markets is to be accepted as an indication that the reported demand of l'russia upon France is untrue, and that the class of persons most likely to be well informed iu regard to international relations are con fident of the preservation of peace. Sharkey's Doctrine. ) Prom the Tribune. J The Supreme Court decided to cousidor separately the Mississippi bill 'of injunction against the President and General Ord, ex- 1 eluding the motion made in behalf of Georgia, i The main ground taken by the Attorney- General is that the President cannot be made a defendant in any court; that he is, in his i official capacity, answerable only to Congress i for his acts, and that the Constitution, by giv- ! ing Congress the power to impeauh und try him, refuses that power to any other branch of the Government. After hearing the argu ments the Court decided to hold the motion under advisement. A well-known gentleman from Mississippi, supposed to be a factotum and familiar of the President, appears as the ostensible head of the new opposition to Reconstruction. Mr. Sharkey has fixed his teeth in the Military Government act, and the Government must, at least, go through the ceremony of making him let go his hold. There is just a suspi rion that Mr. Sharkey is biting a tile; but we let that pass. We must bear in mind the ravenous affinity on the subject of Mate Eights existing not only between Mr. W. L. Jjharkey and Mr. Johnson, but also between the ex-Provisional Governor of Mississippi and a few of the judicial old men of the sea who make un the inveteracy of the Supreme Court. Mr. Sharkey has evidently calculated his chances for presenting a respectable, if not a formidable, issue; indeed, he imagines that he is going to win. At the worst, he is bound to put the fate of State Eights to the test, "or win or lose it all." lie is both desperate and eanguiue; and is in the condition of a man Who must either become a millionaire or go to State prison. That Mr. Sharkey can be san guine appears from the fact that when Mr. JKeverdy Johnson some time ago refused to undertake an application for a mandamus to compel the admission of Mississippi into Con gress, he urged the matter, declaring that ho had thoroughly studied it, and that it must result in success. Thus, like other superfluous politicians, the itinerant Mr. Bharkey is still floating his powerful mind in the Bjirituoua doctrine of State rights. He wanders from Mississippi to Washington, and back again, and again for ward, but will never give it up. Other men ar accenting facts, and grasping them. Such facts are th shovel and the hoe, rioa-ueld find cotton-fields, labor and franchise; and the old lumber of State rights may well be thrown put in the wilderness, if only Alabama and Georgia can work to their best advantage. It is unfortunate that any of Mr- Hhrkty.'s brethren should feel themselves shank loi by the consciousness of this terriLle doctrine. No coiiimmiitr oan- proceed prosperously when troubled by a contictioa that it has a right to be lazy when it ought to work. Labor under such circumstances becomes as penal as breaking stone, with the accom paniment of ball and chain, and thus tho delusion of Stato rights may be a moral slavery of the worst sort. State Uights are the old chivalrous gauds, and trappings, and dandyisms with which the South became vain enough to rebel; but on no account can it aU'ordto wear such braveries now. Better work in plain homespun than mope like the lazy cavalier in his garret. State Rights are not going to' appreciate labor and property, and rebuild tho fortunes of the South. A hearty acceptance of the situation certainly I will, and so think the shrewdest men of that section. Ono can do without title to sove reignty when all the kingdom he owns is a farm, ami all the treasury he has is what he i earns. Under these conditions, we submit j that it is better to dig potatoes than to be j noisy over State Rights. Governor Jenkins, of Georgia, follows ex- ' Governor Sharkey, of Mississippi, in a legal j protest against what he considers the uuconsti- j tionality of the Reconstruction act. Both of ) these gentlemen became Governors by a pro- ) cess in direct opposition to the Sharkey doo- j trine or state rigius, me open and Indiscrimi nate violation of which by President Johnson enables Mr. Sharkey to set up the contrary with the greatest show and pretense. As an index-mark, the people will not be slow to learn the signillcauoe of such a straw as Mr. Sharkey. He is a Union man of long sulfur tug, one who fouud nothing- to do in the Re bellion, and, we fear, has been rather useless out of it. He belongs to tho extra-class of politicians the gentlemen who are now acting the part of political resurrectionists. It is not a live business: it is only bringing the corpse of State rights to the dissection table. We are no wise alarmed. If the Supreme Court delivered a decision like an earthquake, so that even Mr. James Buchanan should be wakened, we are not sure that it would pro duce any more than a very dreadful shaking of dry bones. Probable War In Europe The Dynasties and Their Dvbl.it In Danger. Fi-om the Herald. Our latest telegraphic news from Europe tdiows good reason for the war panic, of the existence and prevalence of which wo had been previously informed. The situation is suffi ciently alarming. It will not surprise us if the next message should inform us that hostilities between France and Prussia have actually commenced. Plucky as ever, Count Bismark is fully prepared and not unwilling to stake the future of the new Germany which he ,has so recently called into, existence, anil which as yet is by no means consolidated, on the chances of a war with France. Should it come to au actual collision, it is impossible to predict w here or how matters will end. It is not France or Prussia, it is Europe which is in danger. Disorder, in fact, is general. At no previous period since the birth of the States system in Europe, has there been such general and com plete disorganization as exists at the present moment, sot some generations, with the ex ception only of the period of the first Napo leon, a species of family compact gave at least the appearance of unity to the various Euro pean nations. That unity is no more. Dis organization is the order of the day. Not only are nations not agreed with each other, they are not agreed within themselves. Internally and externally disorder reigns. Among the various powers entente eordiH there is none. Within the limits of tho various States, con tentment there is none. At the present mo- inent, what European power of the first class j tail be said to be in alliance with any other of its peers f If we except Russia, what power can be said to have peace and contentment leigning within its borders? Take England, with her Feniauism and reform; France, with her factions and her army reconstruc tion schemes; Prussia, with her newly acquired but still grumbling provinces; Austria, with her various aud conflicting nationalities; Italy, with her eternal Church question and chang ing ministries; Spain, with her stupidity and her struggling but dying Bourbonism, to make no mention of the unfortunate sick man of the East and say which of the European States is at rest within itself. For all this disorder there is but one possible cure the nations, one and all, must be made self-forgetful. Their thoughts must be directed outwards. Mothing can so effectually accomplish this re sult as war. The needed ventilation can be found through no. other chaunel. If we may judge from the war clouds which now loom portentously on the horizon, the requisite remedy may soon be applied. In the midst of all this disorder and confu sion it is felt to be a relief to allow the mind's eye to rest on the composure and dignity of llu.ssia and the United states. Like rocks in mid-ocean, they sit serene and lofty, un allected by the surging billows which roll iu foam and fury all around thein. Busy with numerous internal improvements, Ilussia, with one foot on the Baltic an I the other on the iliack Sea, looks hopefully towards Constanti nople, nnd sees, in the not distant future, the ilay when she will sit in pride on the shores of the Bosphorus, and when her flag will tloat in triumph on the water of the Mediterranean. The big pear w hich she has long been anxious to pull is ripe, very ripe. If Kussia will but have patience, it will soon, we promise her, fall into her hands. The United States, on the other hand, so far from being on the verge of financial ruin, aud about to break iu pieces troin its own weight, as some of our Old World triends would fain believe, startles the world more than ever by the dash ami boldness of its enterprise, ut only not contented with a territory whirh certainly is large some think too Urge but eager to obtain aud able to utilize more, we propose to purchase from our big neighbor Kussia that immeuse tract oi territory on the orth American conti nent which has formerly acknowledged her sway. "What w ill we do with it.'" smneeagerly a.-K. I se it, we answer, "ana turn it to good and profitable account." Thus the United States grows, and must grow more and more, until the entire 2oith American continent, with all that properly appertains to it, comes under her authority. Our neighbors, how ever, need take no alarm. We have no in tention of imitating the barbarous examples of the past, by making might the test of right. We wish to hold our laud by a nobler tenure. We discard all idea of conquest. We mean to maintain ami extend the great lie public on a grander principle. What we want we are willing to pay tor; and what we do acquire, we mean to acquire by honest means, and to retain on fair and honorable terms. It is fitting and proper, necessary for the times, and worthy of our history, that we should read to the world some such noble lesson. There is oue reflection which Is Irresistible from Uuu view of the political affairs of the t i .... . Old World and the New security and con fidence are certain to gravitate westward. The old dynasties are doomed, and the day is not far id'istant" i when their debts must be re pudiated. A revolution similar to that which swept over France in 17H!) threatens at an early day to devastate the entire European continent, the adjacent islands of Great Britain, and Ireland not excepted. PROVIDENCE. Betmon Delivered by Key. J. A. Betas, D. !., at St. John'. Lutheran Church, ! Last Kvenlna;. SPECIAL BEPORT FOR TUB EVBNIN0 TELROB Aril. j The Young Men's (Jlirlst Inn Association have, for some tlmt- past, requested tho orthodox clergy of our city to d. livei HiuuUy evening lectures, under tlielr auspices; and nlnoo the lnnuijurntlon of this system there has not been one lecture thnt has ever fulled to draw a large congregation 01 uoirs people, and from their nature and docp Interest, connected with tho subjects and tho manner of their delivery, the youthful clnsses have been gathered In, when otherwise they would not have Ret foot within God's house. Last evening, by the request of this Association, tho Kev. J. A. Selss, I). D., of St. John's Lntheran Church, on Race street. above Fiftb, delivered a sermon, taking as his subject, "God's overruling Providence, whereby lie guldeth and sbiinol li events to Ills will and for His glory." At the opening of tho services the large cdillce was fllltd, and throughout tho evening services, and the delivery of tho sermon, the congregation wna rftpi, i atteu Hon, and impressed by the truths which fell from the speaker's lips. I The preacher took for his text: "I thought it good to show the signs anil wonders that the limit uoa mull wrovum toward nm. , How great are Missigns, and how mighty are lLs wonder." Daniel lv. 'i. 6. These words are from one of the subllmest of this world's monarchs. lie was the golden head of the Image of earthly power, and to which all other dominions are only as silver. ibruHK, iron, and cluy. lie was the ruler of the world that then wns, the centre of its authority and power. Wheresoever the children of men dwi-li his kingdom exieuuea As Ihuiiel lias said, "lie was ruler over them all !" And iu addition to his earthly greutucss, lie was also vtsieu wuu iue spirit 01 prophecy, lie. like most men blest wilh worldly elory sometimes forgot Goii, uud In his pride and i vanity am wicueuiy. or uns ne was iniracu ously rebuked und severely punished. Having senthis his wrnth upon certain Hebrew youths who would not worship his image, lie cast them into a furnace hen ted to whiteness; he was made tosee them preserved lu ono heated with Hi e seven-fold, and saw them como out with not a thread oi their garments singed. It was so marvellous ami expressive a miracle that he Iclt uouiui to acknowledge tho hand or (jod in it, and cout'esbeil to all Ins vast empire that the God.of Shadrueh, Meshach, and Abeduego Was the only Ood, and that lie alone was to bo wor shiped throughout his realms. It was to this und such-like marvellous manifustatlousof the Divine power of the Godhead that he referred in the text: "Signs and wonders, great and mighty, which the high Ood hath wrought towards me. hut wo are not to suppose that this wns an Isolated case in relation to these deeds. It is a mistake to look upon God's doings with the people of tho world us if the same Divine luter lercnce in the nihil rs of men was no longer what It then was, Jehovah's hand is Just as really at work now in' what Is transpiring everyday us in the wonaers that Nebuchad nezzar experienced. What it did then, lie does still for t bo. Mini o ends. Those miraculous interventions olteu related In the Scriptures were not meant simply to excite the wonder of those who saw them or of the after ages; but in illustration of Divine government, from which to leurn how thines are governtd and conducted continually. They were simply to show how Uoil is dealing with men all the time. Ordinarily we see things coming after wards In a uniform and settled order, uud we forget that God has charge in its coming, us in deeds rare and miraculous. We see Him putting forth the divine hand to call Saul to the kingdom, David to the throne, Isaiah to the prophet's cnalr, and Jonah to he missionary in Nineveh just that we may know and see how the same hand is employed in seeking and setting up every earthly ruler, and in commissioning every preacher of right eousness who appears in the world. We may he slow to learn the great lesson, and still slower in taking it toour hearts, but It is never theless true mat uoa w in everyuung. Men devise, but God disposes. His hand Is in the election of a President who is to rule, as much as it was in the calling of Moses from the burning bush. Ills providence has as much chaise of the meal-chest of every family as in the cruse of tho widow at Scrapta, or in tho feeding of Klijah by the ravens iu the moun tains. He is us much in the troubles and dis tresses of families and nations now, as he wns in the miraculous judgments which ufllicted the King of Egypt, or iu the band that wrote Belshuzzar's doom upon the wall of Babylon's royal banquet house. As much in every vineyard and every harvest Held as In the miracle of Cana, or in the produc tion of the manna which rained into the camp of the pilgrim Hebrews, As much in the pul sations ot each heart as in that life-thrill which brought dead Lazarus from his grave. As much in every death as in the stroke which smote down Kai'ab or Ananias, or In the chariot of fire which took up the ancient prophet in triumph from earth. As much in every cir cumstance in life as in the hand which took up Ezekiel by bis hair from Kedar's banks, or preserved the Hebrew children lu Nebuchad nezzar's furnace. Neither can it be matter of material moment for us to understand to what intent and with what moral purpose God has thus dealt with men. Of the effect It has there cun be no doubt. It Is agreeable to reason, and it is alllrmed and reaffirmed In revelation. It is traceable In all human history, and Is manifest in every one's own experience, if man will look closely. Indeed, from the very nature of things, it cannot be otherwise. God Is with everything that He has made, even in the most minute particulars numbering the very hairs of our heads, and in suffering not even a spar row to full without His will. The exact pur pose which God has in particular circumstances 01 His more marked deulings with us, we are not alwavs able to underKtsiml. Thev rlnubl- less are manifold, complicated, aud, in some de gree, lnscrutalile. "Whohatu known the mind of the Lord? Unsearchable, are His judgments, mid His ways past lludlug out." Bat we are ma ieit iu totui ignorance, biuce the tail iu Kileu, It tias ever been one of the greatest fail Ihkh of mankind to excel lu outward thliis. without due recard to the BDirituiil und divine. l'eople ure prone to rest contented without penetrutiuu sulllciently into the things of that iuvlsible and hidden world from which out ward thine take their rise and shape. There Is need that Uod should discover to man, aud discover man to himself; nnd out of these dis coveries to lay afresh the foundations for a spi ritual and pious life. To efl'ect thin is, peruaps, the first aud subllmest design of God's varied deulings with men. It is plainly traceable in nil the great transactions to which the Scrip ture refer. It was in them that the eternal soul and spirit Of thlnL'H liroku trntn Its kiiluinl nnveriUK, nnd thraw oil' in part the musk of secrecy to show the duty unto man, and demonstrated our true relation to Htm. For this the dry rod in Moes baud became a movlnii serpent; the river turned suddenly to blood; the dust became living aud animal; the clouds were transmuted lntomnguzlues or death and destruction; the air shook putretactlon from its dewy wins, and the' majestic tea became obedient to mau; the Mount shook like a thing of life; and from its summit a flame gave out -it great builder's words; tlie dark rock Kve out cool stream In the desert; the hover lug cloud ituided the pilgrim hosts, aud tho very sun stood still at the command of Joshua, and the moon lu the valley of AJalon. so that ull w ho saw could know that there 1 a Ood in nature "whose signs are uieat aud whoso won iierareiulghtT,'T What Ood did to them by Interfering with the rogular order of things He does still in the regular owler of things. Ho every day, every hour euacting events as wondrously as ever He did to the pilgrim Hebrews by repulsing Vharouh, or to the won dering Nebucliadnez.ar. We sometimes wish that we could see ft miracle; that we could witness a repetition of senna of those greut exhibitions of the Godhead that the ancient world beheld. We think it would help our faith, it would settleour doubts, eonuriu our piety, aud make our devotion stronger, Uo.1 w hat , we all tua miracle M Modes' time compnred with the ten thousand forms of life whle.h sprlnit up nil around T We are astonished at the dolnus of dentil amonn t he cattle nnu sunem, i-oue oi iwypt, ana yei more people arid creatures Ho every hour now that) leu unuer finguca ui taut puriou i W v'ilv'tibould we think It the greater exhibi tion of the Godhead to obscure, eclipse, or stop tl e (-un, innri to si ve me nun power 10 ron us (ioUleii chariot tnrouen miu-neaven every any, W IthOUl Bioppiu, " ..miiju ( ncaiRu that thengeof miracles Is past, and yet every Ihinu is full of the power of miracles, preaching God as eloquently ss In tho anrleiu deeds of tho A 1 in lull I V.

It was so with Nebuchadnezzar. and it is so general that to humble this vain uud wicked loftiness of man Is, therefore, the next great luientoi tue Almighty's Divine ad minislrution concernug us. It was so in the case of the undent idolutors, iu which we have un example of what Is true in gencrul. All history shows that It is God's pur pose to bring down whatsoever exulteth Itself unduly. Jur ijorcl uauisneu Adam from 1'ara dise but for the reason that he was proud, when Halau told him ho was God. The lloods swept over the world, leaving it almost teuantless. because the people refused to acknowledge u higher ruler than their laws.

Yet the minds ot men could never learu the lesson. but continued banding themselves up in pride together, to set themselves up, and tilling the world with nou.su ul imaginings and raise glories all giving the glory ono to another, aud ex halting self into the Creator of things and honors. Hence came the fearful doings of God among the idols of Kgypt and the people of Canaan, when fharaoh lilted himself up, saying, Who is the Lord, that I should obey Ills voice?" And from the guileless babes doomed to de struction one was picked out to smite the hauuhty blasphemer, und call down Judgment ufter Judgment upon him, till all thegraudeur took wings from t he bright empire, and the waves of the Ked Sea closed over the lost of Egypt's glory. . l'haraoh, Nebuchndnezznr, Cyrus, Alexander, Ctesur, and others of other kingdoms, have, one by one, come down from their nigh elevations like some great pines of the forest overthrown by their own gigantic growth in struggling to reach as high as heaven. -'J he reverend gentleman pursued this great theme of God's provideutlul exercise of His power through all its varied phases in life, aud the manifold wondrous events whioh have come over this earthly abode, showing how His htnd guldeth all tilings aud shapelh events, which will redound to His great glory as the sublime and holy creator of all.
