ABUSE OF ENGLAND BY TUE BELLI-
LIE HE NTS.
From the London Saturday Review.
The Time lately published in the saino
eolnmn, under the title "Diiflaulties of Neu
trality," two abusive letters respectively ex
pressing the irritation of France and of Ger
many at the neutrality of England. Any
Englishman who desires further to study the
spiteful remarks which may bo made against
hia country may gratify his morbid curiosity
with the aid of almost any file of American
pnpers. The New York Timet justly regarded
as one of the ablest and most respes'able of
the daily journals, has once or twice a week
eiDce the commencement of the war devoted
an elaborate article to the denunciation of the
egotism, the meanness, and the woakue3S of
English neutrality. It is true that interven
tion on either hide would have been censured
with equal bitterness, and that for move than
ninety years the conduct of England in
peace and in war has been with uninterrupted
consistency condemned by American critics;
but in this instauco, although tha unfriendly
feeling is generated at homo, the changes and
the arguments are imported from Germany
and from France. There is no doubt that in
both countries England is at present regarded
with an angry contempt, unconsciously tinc
tured with unvy. The satisfaction with
which the epicurean poet regarded from the
shore the labors of the sea-tossed sailor is
naturally not reciprocal. At present tlio
complacent contrast is not so much felt by
the spectator as it is imputed to him by the
irritated fancy of the sufferer. "Why," he
may be supposed to ask, "did not that com
fortable idler prevent me from p itting to
tea in bad weather ? and at loast ho
might run out the life-boat."
The most planhible of the Genu m com
plaints is that the English Government ne
glected the opportunity of preventing the
wnr by the menace of taking part against the
aggressor. Lord Granville, it is said, almost
seemed to sanction the original demand of
the French Government; and when, in defe
rence to his remonstrnuces, the llohenzollern
candidature was withdrawn, he ought to have
given notice to the Emperor Napoleon that
in prosecuting the quarrel further he would
find England on the side of Germany. It is
not improbable that such a representation
would have been effectual; and later expe
rience has shown that, if the threat had been
followed by a rupture with France, England
would Lave reaped any advantage which
might have accrued to the ally of the stronger
belligertnt.
Forty or fifty years ago such a course
might probably have been adopted, because
it was understood that every great power,
and especially England, was bound at all
times to guarantee the peace of Europe and
the balance of power. The progress of
opinion has greatly facilitated the outbreak
of war, by practically securing aggressors
Against the intervention of impartial Dystand
ers. Prussia profited by the modernd'utrine
or practice in and assuredly no German
statesman expected the aid of England ia the
present war. If governments were exclu
sively influenced by a sense of justice, the
union of the community of nations against
every wrongdoer would discourage war. In
two conspicuous modern instances the ag
gressor has been wantonly and undeniably iu
the wrong; and yet England has abstained
from joining Prussia in 1870, as Prussia had
abstained from joining England in 1n.I.
Nicholas 1 would even more cer
tainly have yielded to a European coali
tion than Napoleon III to an alliance of
England with North Germany. It is well to
remember that all pretexts for war are not as
frivolous and one-sided as the protended
squabbles about the Holy Sepulchre or llo
henzollern; and it may have been better for
North Germany to fight out its quarrel single,
handed than to invite every power in Europe
to join the side which its real or supposed
interests might induce it to prefer. Sweden
and Denmark avowedly sympathized with
France; and Austria perhaps regrets her
adoption of a benevolent neutrality. Those
who hold thai England was bound in August
last to declare war against France are com
mitted to the opinion that the Governments
of the eighteenth century were in the right
when they made neutrality a rare exception
o their habitual policy.
If England had attacked France, with the
certainty of reviving during many genera
ions an enmity which was becoming obso
ete, the fortune of war at sea would proba
bly have been the same on land. Havre
might have shared the fate of Strasburg, and
Cherbourg might have been exposed to jeo
pardy as well as Paris. At this point of the
struggle, if not sooner, the wishes of the
allies would have begun to diverge, for neither
would England have desired aggrandizoma nt
for herself, nor would she have been pre
pared to aid in the dismemberment of
French territory for the benefit of Germany.
A peace concluded under pressure from the
English Government would have been fol
lowed by a deeper resentment thin that
which now leads to the use of contumelious
language. In the probable contingency of a
separate prosecution of the war by Germany
after the withdrawal of England, an animo
eity would have been provoked which
might not impossibly have ended in an open
rupture. It is true that all the conditions of
the discussion would have been changed if
England had been a great military power, or
if, as in former wars, a deficiency of troopj
had been supplied by subsidies. Strength
affords the only real security against inter
national unfriendliness and injustice. It is
because England is unarmed in the presonco
of the vast military establishments of the
Continent that in diplomatic! controversies,
in the talk of foreign barracks aud clubs,
and in the columns of newspapers, her per
fidy, her selfishness, and her cowardice ore
popular topics. The abuse which is lavuhod
on the Government for its neutrality is only
rendered possible by the assumption that
England is no longer entitled to adopt au in
dependent policy. The neutrality und the
silence of Knssia are regarded with compara
tive respect, because the force of the army, and
the number and quality of the artillery.are not
prscisely known. Englishmen are conscious
of a disinterested regard both for peace aud
justice; but they are also accustomed to be
misunderstood in Europe and misrepresent 1
in America. As long as they are unprepared
(or war it is idle to attempt to disabuse
foreigners of the impression that no motivo
except cowardice restrains them from mur
dering and robbing their neighbors. The
German protest against the exportation from
England to France of arms and munitions of
war is less reasonable than the complaint that
the war was not prevented by a timely
menace. Count Bernstorff, indeed, seeing to
have convicted the English Government of
an inconsistency, if it is true that Lord
Granville required from him proof of the
exportation of arms, before he defended the
lawfulness of the trads; but he has not an
swered the argument which is derived
from the writings of jurists and
from the practice of nations.
The Americana, notwithstanding their
astuteness in devising complaint against
England, never objected during their own
civil war to the exportation of munitions of
war from England to the Confederate States.
Trussia supplied Russia with arms during the
Crimean war; and the English Government,
on the advice of its law oillcers, deliberately
withheld the remonstrances which it had been
inclined to make against the trade. Count
I?ernstorff's warning that the resentment of
Germany against EiiRiaud will be permanent
may perhaps be well founded; and it is
equally probable that the Patrie of the same
date witn the North German Ambassador's
note may accurately represent the
opinions and feeliugs of Frenchmen.
The Whig Cabinet,'- according to the
writer in the litrii "manifests towards
Franco the most hostile disposition, and in
this it is in harmony with the Queen, whom
tho ties of relationship render exclusively
favorable to Prussia. It is then
necessary to admit that the Euglish Cabinet
is blinded by a feeling of pitiful jealousy, and
that it assists with a secret joy in producing
the ruin of our influence, and the humiliation
of a rival whose prestige has always wounded
British pride." It is scarcely possible that
both charges can bo true, but both nro credi
ble to those by whom they are respectively
preferred, and Franoe and Germany will per
haps at the end of the war be equally alien
ated from England.
At present there is more excuse for French
reclamations than for German abuse, if only
because impatience is more pardonable in
sicknops than in health. Some of the French
complaints against England are natural and
unavoidable, because they are founded on a
difl'erenco cf character which makes the ways
of thinking of the two nations in some
respects mutually unintelligible. Thus M.
Louis Blanc, before his departure from Eng
land, remonstrated against the habit of be
lieving the German despatches and disbeliev
ing the official reports of incessant French
victories. French Republicans practically
adopt the theological dogma that faith is an
operation, not of the intellect, but of the
Bisections and the will. As it had never
occurred to M. Blanc rhat credence ought to
depend upon credibility, he naturally attri
buted to unfriendly prejudice the preference
of truth to falsehood; and his opinion has
probably not been changed by the fact that all
the German successes were actually attained,
while the French triumphs were deliberately
manufactured in Paris. Another cause of
annoyance is the insular dulness which fails
to understand how France and Paris came to
be more Bacrod than any other country or
capital city. It must be taken for granted
that M. Victor Hugo's rhapsodies find ad
mirers outside the walls of the French Bed
lam or Ilanwell; but to Englishmen they
seem merely explosions of effervescing non
sense,as insipid as they are flatulent. Neverthe
less, regret for the disasters of France is uni
versally felt in England. In the early part of
the war it would have been criminal not to
sympathize with the cause of justice, main
tained by unparalleled wisdom in council and
valor in the field. The quarrel of Germany
hns not censed to be just, nor has the supe
riority of German arms been disturbed; but
it is a grievous misfortune that such a city
as Paris should be exposed to the horrors and
the hazards of war. Tho majority
of Englishmen would prefer that the Gor
man victors should content them
selves with the recovery of Strasburg, and
with the proof which thoy hive afforded that
their territory is not to be attacked or threat
ened without ruinous consequences to the
aggressors. If sympathy afforded any conso
lation in the midst of misfortuue, the French
would have no reason for complaining of the
coldness of their neighbors. Siuoe the cheap
commodity of good-will is not unnaturally
rejected as worthless, England has nothing
more at present to oifer. Tho Germans may
possibly be harsh in their use of victory, but
they have not thus far exceeded their rights.
Paris only suffers the fate which every
brawler in France destined for Berlin at a
time when Germany had given no offense ex
cept by becoming united and powerful. It
would be needless to appeal to the candor and
justice of either belligerent; but Englishmen
may perhaps wish to assure themselves that
they are not monsters of iniquity.
A Cumors Custom. Sir John Lubbock,
in his recent work on the "Origin of Civil
isation," epeaka of a curious custom very
widely spread among savages of all regions,
by which on the birth of a baby the father,
and not the mother, is put to bed and nursed
like a sick person for several weeks. This
custom was almost universal among the In
dians of South America. Dobritzhoffer, the
old Jesuit missionary to Paraguay, tells us
that "no sooner de you hear that a woman
has borne a child than you see the husband
lying in bed, huddled up with mats and skins,
lest some ruder breath of air should touch
him, fasting, kept in private, and for a num
ber of days abstaining religiously from cer
tain viands; you would swear it was he who
had had' the child. I had read about this in
old times, and laughed at it, never thinking I
could believe such madness; and I used to
suspect that this barbarian custom was re
lated more in jest than in earnest; but at
last I saw it with my own eyes among the
Abipones."
Brett, in his account of the Indian tribes of
Guiana, says he saw a man whose wife had
lately been delivered, lying in a hammock,
wrapped up as if he were sick, though really
in the most robust health, and carefully nursed
bv women, while the mother of the new-born
infant was engaged in cooking and other
work about the hut.
Traces of this custom were found in Green
land, where, after a womau is confined, the
husband must forbear working for some
weeks; and in Kamskatka, where for some
time before the birth of a baby the husband
must do no more hard work. Similar notions
are found among the Chinese, among the
Dyeks of Borneo, and what is still stranger is
that they exist to this day in Corsica, iu the
North of Spain, and in the South of France,
where the custom is called fa ire li eouvade.
Max Muller, in his "Chips from a German
Workshop," tries to account for it thus: "It
is clear that the poor husband was at first
tyrannized over by his female relations, and
afterward frightened into superstition. He
then began to make a martyr of himself till
he made himself really ill, or took to his bed
in self-defense. Strange and absurd as the
coumde appears at first sight, there is some
thing in it with which, we believe, most
mothers-in-law can sympathize." Sir John
Lubbock, however, prefers to accept the
arib and Abipone explanation, which ia that
they believe the infant would be injured in
some way if the father engaged in any rough
work cr was careless of his diet.
Juliet Austin, of Milwaukee, has returned
from Berlin, where her muelcal studies were
finished, and has created a great sensation iu
her Dative village by her vocal charms.
