Several events have recently been reported in the cable despatches from Europe whioh may exercise great influence upon the final issue of the war between Germany and France. Up to this moment the latter power has derived no assistance whatever from other European nations, but the probabilities of a diversion, if not of direot intervention in her behalf, are steadily increasing. The Empire was a standing menace to Europe, and the nations which had suffered by the arrogance displayed by her Napoleonic rulers for a time regarded the humiliation of Franoe with ill-concealed satisfaction. Austria was not unwilling that the victors of Sadowa should punish the people who overthrew her armies at Solferino. Italy, although partially reunited by French assistance, re membered how long her thorough unifica tion had been postponed through French jealousy. Spain could not forget that the present war was precipitated by unwarranted French interference with her choice of a sovereign. England smarted under the con viction that she had been cajoled by the ex-Emperor and under the threats repeated from time to time that Waterloo would yet be avenged, and Russia was fitting by the recollection that French armies had checked her designs against Constanti nople, and humiliated her armies at Sevasto pol. Although these things had been done by the empire, the parties offended held France, as a nation, responsible for them, and they were by no means certain that her aggressions might not be increased by the substitution of a republican for an imperial government, t'p to a certain point, therefore, they were willing and anxious that France should be punished for what they considered past offenses and shorn of the strength necessary to inflict future injuries. But at the same time they are not blind to the danger that German dominance may prove more inoonvenient and damaging than French ascendancy. France served, in their judgment, as a useful cheok upon the growing power of Prussia, and the course of events is now forcing us to gravely wonder whether they can safely afford to have this check completely destroyed. They were anxious to see France badly whipped in a two months' war, but they wore not pre pared to see her reduced to a low and uninflu ential rank in the scale of nations, to have her territory disintegrated, her towns and cities burnt, her provinces devastated, and her proud capital demolished. Caring nothing for France, for Republicanism, or for the general interests of humanity, but intensely anxious for self-protection and self-aggrandizement, the unexpected completeness of the German victories and the continued weakness of French resistance are now in citing in their bosoms many active hopos and fears. The military activity displayed by Russia during the last few months is explained by her formal demand for an abrogation or revision of the treaty of 18.'iU. She is determined to embrace the pre sent opportunity for destroying the siok mm of Turkey and getting a free outlet to the Mediterranean. Now that France is no longer able to resist her ambitious designs in that (garter, the bids defiance to England, and England, in turn, is tortured by the fear that German acquiescence in the Russian policy will be purchased by the transfer of Russian ports and the Baltic to the triumphant Ger mans. This programme would involve a double menace to Great Britain. It would vastly increase the power of Russia to hams her possessions in British India, and at the same time make Germany more clamorous than ever for free sway over the Baltio aud for control over its outlets to the ocean, France had a common interest in checking these designs, and her humiliation will rob Great Britain of Iier only effective ally. British statesmen are therefore becoming intensely anxious that peace should be established before Franoe is irretrievably ruined. Austria, too, has lately displayed an intense desire for the conclusion of the war, and it is reported that a feeling of deep hostility has sprung up be tween Yon Beust and Bismarck. If Franoe is thoroughly humbled, Austria fears that she will be more completely than ever at the mercy of Prussia. Whither these fears and jealousies of England and Austria, and their common interest in pre venting the prostration of Franoe, will lead to Armed intervention in her behalf remains to be seen, but there can be little doubt that they will give France all the diplomatic) assist ance in their power, and if protests and pro tocols prove utterly unavailing, the day may be noar at hand when they will extend mate rial aid. Meanwhile, the French Lava at last won a victory of respectable proportions, and if this is followed by one or mora similar achievements the 1 long-Iooked-f or uprising may come at last, and a fait show of French strength at this juncture would have a power ful influence la attracting f oro-'gu assistance. LEAGUE ISLAND. Am opposition that may now exist in Oon. gresa with regard to the transfer of the Phila delphia Navy Yard to League Island and the establishment there of a great naval depot can scarcely arise from anything but the dis content of the advocates for other sites, but as Congress has acoepted League Island from the city of Philadelphia, and its fitness for the purpose cannot be disputed, all farther controversy with regard to the proponed transfer should be at an end. Leagne Island is the one plaoe of all others upon the Atlan tic seaboard that is pre-eminently fitted for a great naval establishment such as the Govern ment must possess if the navy is to be maintained at a proper state of efficiency. It is sufficiently near the open sea to allow all the advantages that are desired in that particular, while it is far enough away from the water to be pro tected from any sudden attack of an enemy. It is surrounded upon all sides by fresh water which is deep enough to float the largest ves sels, and that will furnish for the iron-clads all the protection they need. It is large enough to accommodate all the machine shops, store houses, ship houses, and other structures required for a great naval esta blishment, and, perhaps more important than all, it has advantages for obtaining coal and iron in any quantity direct from the mines such as so other place In the oountry pos sesses. It is not creditable that sectional jealousies should have thus far prevented the work of preparing League Island for the pur pose to which it has been devoted from being commenced by the Government, especially as the proceeds from the sale of the old Navy Yard site will certainly eover a large portion if not the whole of the expense. The navy never can be kept in that state of effi ciency tht is absolutely necessary if we are to be prepared for the emergencies that are constantly arising, so long as the present system of small yards, with their necessarily incomplete appliances for doing work, is maintained. One such establishment as is proposed at League Island will be worth all the navy yards in the country, and it will enable the Government to have its work per formed, under the direction of its own offi cers, better and cheaper than it can in any other manner. ' The establishment of a school of naval engineering, which is highly essential to the efficiency of the navy in the future, U another important consideration that ought to influence the speedy improvement of League Island. Such a school as this cannot be carried on properly in connection with the Academy at Annapolis, but it must be situ ated in the midst of large machine-shops, where the young engineers can have all the requisite facilities for learning in the most perfect manner possible both the theory and the practice of their profession. This is a subject that has not as yet attracted the attention it deserves, but it needs but a moment's reflection to de monstrate its vast importance, and the Phila delphia delegation in Congress ought to in troduce it and urge it with the utmost per sistence as soon as the session opens. With proper management on the part of our repre sentatives in Congress, the opposition to League Island ought to be quieted during the coming winter, and a bill authorizing the improvement of the site should be pushed through both houses as rapidly as possible, so that there may be no further delay. The citizens of Philadelphia are, of course, deeply interested in having the Leagne Island Navy Yard in active opera tion at as early a day as possible, but it is of much more importance to the nation at large than it is to us, and there ought to be enough members of both houses who are not specially interested in other 6ites to overoome all opposition. If we 6hould suddenly become involved in a foreign war, the people of the country will suddenly discover that a great naval depot ought to have been established long ago; and as there is no telling what a day may bring forth, should to be no further delay in putting the only first-class site for the purpose in proper condition for the performance of all kinds of naval work. TI1E AUSTRIAN PREMIER. Count ton UriDt and till. Trouble with Bis marck III. Cureer us a mule. man. Bismarck aud Von Beust are the representa tive men of the two great parties Into which Germany has teen divided biuee the outbreak of the war of lbi'.li, Bleinarck representing G.rmau unity and Prussian ascendancy, and S'on Beust representing the integrity of the pctty.Germaa States and the supremacy of Austria. During tbe present war the Prussian Premier has natu rally and necessarily regarded Von Beust as the meet dangerous enemy of bis plans, and several times it has been reported that un open rupture between them wai Imminent. Theso rumors are again rife, and it is possible that a serious complication may arise from them. Frederick Ferdinand, Baron von Beust, was born at Dresden, Saxony, on January 13, lsOt). He pursued his studies at (Jottlnsron and Lelpsic, and after completing them entered the Foreign Ollice. lie held for a time the oJtice of Assessor of Land Survev, and in lh3i he made a tour through Switzerland, France, and England, of two or three years' duration. la S3d he be came the Secretary of the Saxon Legation at Berlin, and iu 18'W held the same ofliee in Paris, lie wae also Charged Allaire? at Munich la 1&41, held an ofliee In London in 1816, and was Am bassador to the Court of Berlin in 1843. In February, 1841), he became Minister of Foreign Affairs for Saxony, and In the following May received also the portfolio of the Department of Agriculture. In the discussions preceding the treaty of 1853 he took an active and prominent part. In 1853 he was made Minister of the Interior, and on taking possession of that post resigned the office of Minister of Agriculture. When the Danish war broke out in 1853, Baron von Beust distinguished himself by bis fidelity to Federal interests, and made himself notorious by a re buke which he administered to Lord Russell, la answeriBg a despatch from that gentleman. la 18C4 Von Beust represented the Germanic Diet in the London Conference. During the con tinuance of this conference he twice visited Pari to coufer with the. Emperor Nioleon, whose ruet he afterwards became at TontaVne bleao. When the war between Austria and Prussia had come to a end. Von Beust left his Saxoa offices, went to Austria, and was made Minister of For eign Affairs of that country on October 30, 18M, and Minister of the Household on the 14th of the following November. Re became also Presi dent of the Council on the retirement of Count Belcredl, on February 4, 1807. It is in his official connections with Austria that he is best known, being the representative of the Austrian policy against that of Bismarck, though ha Is lot an Austrian by birth, and only went to that country to take possession of one ofjts highest offices. As the Austrian Minister of Foreign Affairs he introduced several important changes giving greater civil and religious liberty, and his efforts in this direction were condemned by the Pope himself la a special allocution. It was through his efforts that tbe King of Austria was crowned also King of Hungary, by which act the province which had before been deprlvedjof ail rights, and whose existence was unnoticed in the affairs of tbe Government, received her just dues and be came a most Important part of the Austrian Empire. He strengthened AuBtria both at home and abroad, and by his special exertions enabled it to recuperate greatly from the disas trous effects of the war of 18G6 with Prussia, During the present conflict between Prussia and France he has kept aloof and repressed the natural feeling entertained by a large party in Austria in favor of assailing Prussia in the rear in revenge for the humiliation of Sadowa. A cable telegram received last night states that Count von Beust arrived at Munich on the 6th, and remained in conferer.ee with the Bavarian Ministry two days. This fact is significant in view of the well-known hostility of Bavaria to tbe scheme of union with the North German Confederation, into which all the other South German States have entered, apparently with a good grace. It is possible that Von Beust' s special mission to the Bavarian capital was for tbe purpose of strengthening tbe position assumed by the Munich Cabinet, and if this be so a rupture with Bismarck is certainly imminent.

On Monday, November 7, the Prussian war steamer Meteor, carrying three Runs, and the French war steamer Bouvet, car rying five, entered this harbor. The Meteor sailed out again after the French mail steamer Nouveau Monde had sailed, bnt tho mall steamer immediately returned, fearing capture. On the night of Tuesday, the 8th, the Bouvet left port, but waited outside for the German war vessel. After the expiration of the twenty-four hoars time prescribed by law, the Meteor followed, a naval duel having been arranged between the fflcers before starting. The Spanish war steamer Hernando Cortes accompanied the two vessels. The Meteor had a crew of sixty men and the Bouvet eighty. Tho Bouvet was tsn miles beyond the offing. Upon the coming out of the Meteor. be Beamed in wards towards the neutral line. The Bouvet opened the contest by firing five shots, which the Meteor promptly returned. The Bouvet then attempted to board tbe Meteor, but in this she was unsuccessful. 11 er rigging: became en tangled, carrying away ber main and mlzzea masts, lne rigging falling with the mast be came entangled In tho Meteor's screw, at the same moment the Meteor sent a shell into the insido of tbe Bouvet, smashing; her steam pine. Tbe Meteor, by reason ot the disabling of ber screw, became unmanageable, and tbe Bouvet, flndlmr tbe Quarters hot and her caoture certain if the waited until the Meteor could disentangle herself, set sail rapidly and made for port, the Meteor continuing to fire meanwhile. With a fair wind the Bouvet was enabled to cross into Spanish waters before the Meteor could discn tangle her screw. At this time the Hernando Cortes Bred a gun as a signal that the combat had closed- Both fought bravely. The German gunooat Meteor was accorded the victory. Both vessels are now in port repairing darn- ages. The Meteor had three killed and one wounded, ine lionvet hud oaly three wounded Tbe Germans in Havana are much elated with the a flair, which caused Intense excitement. Latf.k. Two Prussians, Carbonar and Thoruseo, who were killed in the naval engage ment, were buried here on the 10th instant. Thi German merchants attended the fnneral in an immense body. It is now said that the Bouvet leu the sceae of fight under steam and sail. German residents are arranging for a grand baiquet for the officers ot the Meteor. FROM WASmJVGTOJV.
