WARLIKE ASPECTS IN EUROPE.
The impression left on the mini! by
the telegrams and newspapers from
Europe is that there will be another
summer of war. Not alone are Prus
sia and France apparently on the eve
of a quarrel which must eventuate
in actual hostilities, but Turkey is
threatened by Russia and by Greece;
while the Pasha of Egypt has all but
cast aside his nominal allegiance.
There is trouble looming upon Spain
on account of England's inevitably
hostile action for the injuries done to
British subjects and property by the
seizure of two vessels, the Torn .do
and the Victoria. Spain offers scant
compensation in one ease and with
holds reparation in the other ; and a
British fleet bombarding Cadiz, with
a general blockade of other Spanish
ports, may have startled Europe ere
these lines are printed.
Luxemburg is but the pretext, it
would seem, for a quarrel between
Prussia and France. In 1839, when
the territory of Belgium was finally
settled, one-third of Luxemburg,
abutting upon Prussian as well as
upon French frontiers, was assigned
to the King of Holland, the other
two-thirds being left as part of Bel
gium. Originally German,the Grand
Duchy of Luxemburg was given to
the King of the Netherlands in 1815
as an equivalent for his hereditary
principality of Nassau, which then
changed owuers. The present patch
of territory known as Dutch Luxem
burg is thirty-six miles distant from
the nearest part of Holland, and his
Dutch Majesty can very well spare
it, and, indeed, was induced by want
of money to sell it to France. But
here Prussia steps in on behalf of
Germany,puts a veto on the transfer,
and declares that this will be enforc
ed, if necessary, by arms. Thus the
question now stands Prussia and
France are making great prepara
tions, as if for war, and the angry
feeling between each country is daily
growing more acrid. William ol
Prussia wants to lay hold on Holland,
with its commerce and colonies ; and
Napoleon of France desires to pos
sess Belgium, with its industrial
wealth, and that Antwerp which his
uncle declared was the key to sov
ereignty in Europe. " Manifest des
tiny" in the old world is evidently
suppressing small and extending
great nations, and thus the nationali
ties of Holland and of Belgium prob
ably cannot endure much longer.
**9"* GEORGE W. KENDADL, in one of
his recent letters from Texas to the
New Orleans Picayune, says that as
the South is powerless to resist, it is
their policy to make the best of a
bad bargain, and submit without re
pining to the inevitable. He urges
that the duty of the whites to the
negroes does not end in kind treat
ment and just payment; they must
also educate them, and without the
aid of Northern teachers. And he
continues : "So far as I have seen,
Gens. LEE, BEAUREGARD, LONGSTREET,
and other great Confederate chief
tains, have come out,under their own
proper signatures, and recommended
that we all accept the 'situation'—
the plan of reconstruction—as offer
ed us by those who proved our con
querors after a four years' struggle.
If such distinguished men—men who
fought it out to the worse than bitter
end—are in favor of reconstruction
on the base offered, it ill becomes the
four-corner swashbucklers and hang
ers-on about tho groceries, to put in
their word adversely. The leading
Southern military men—men who
stuck to a crumbling cause long af
ter they knew it was essentially
crushed by mo icy and numbers—
these men should have weight in in
ducing us to accept the conditions
on which wo are hereafter to have
some show of say in our own af
airs."
LOT* THE DOYLESTOWN DEMOCRAT is
opposed to any New England man
coming to Pennsylvania to advocate
the cause of temperance, because the
New Englanders, many years ago,
persecuted Rogers Williams and the
Quakers. The Democrat proves it
has a clear knowledge of events and
keen appreciation of what is just at
the present time.
W?* The Legislature of Ohio pass
ed the bill to prohibit the publication
of advertisements of secret drugs
and nostrums, purporting to be for
the exclusive use of woman, and also
the sale of the same.
RUSSIAN AND BRITISH AMERlCA.—Not
withstanding the fretful tone of some
of the English journals in commenting
ou our late treaty with Russia, and
the suggestion of one of those papers
that the transaction is one fall of di
rect hostility, our Government has,
within the past week, received from
official sources the assurance that the
British Government is not at all an
noyed in consequence of the treaty,
but, on the contrary, is entirely satis
fied with the transaction,and assured
that our Government made the treaty
with Russia in no unfriendly spirit
toward England ; in fact, it is gath
ered from high authority that the
English Government can be easily
reconciled to parting with the Cana
das and other British posseseions in
North America, whenever those Pro
vinces shall themselves make mani
fest their desire to separate from the
mother country, whether for the pur
pose of annexation to the United
States or for setting up independent
governments for themselves.
fgL. The contemplated new rail
road, from Sunbury to Wilksbarre,
byway of Danville, is an improve
ment of the utmost i mportauce. A
corps of engineers, under Col. F. C.
Arms, late of the Northern Central
railway, commenced a survey of the
route, from Sunbury, on Monday
last. This road, we presume, is in
tended to connect with the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western road, in
Luzerne county, and with the North
ern Central at Sunbury. Its con
struction is designed to develope the
extensive coal lands through which
it passes. It will be the shortest
route between New York, Pittsburg
and the lakes—between the commer
cial centres of the Atlantic and great
West.
Burleigh, the delegate in Con
gress from Dakotah, has invited and
organized a large party of members
of Congress for a buffalo hunt on the
Plains next summer. They intend to
be in Yankton about the Ist of June,
and being there, will proceed to the
prairies and spend several months in
chasing the buffalo over the Plains.
The gentlemen named below will con
stitute the party : Hons. Benjamin
Wade, Richard Yates, Z. Chandler,
Jacob Howard, James W. Patterson,
L. M. Morrill, James A. Nye, Simon
Cameron, L. P. Poland, A. H. Laflin,

Europe.—We have Cable dispatch
es to Sunday evening. The Luxem
burg question has been virtually
settled by the acceptance, on the part
of France and Prussia, of a confer
ence of the great Powers to dispose
of the difficulty. The Grand Duchy
will be neutralized and the fortress
demolished.
It is rumored that Russia will take
her pay for her ceded American pos
sessions in iron-clads in place of the
stipulated sum of money.
The Envoy from Turkey to the
United States will soon take bis de
parture for this country.
THE importance of the coming
election in the State of Alabama is
recognized at Washington, and every
assistance possible has been given
them to make the organization
thorough and effective. If Alabama,
is carried by rebels it will be only
after a severe conflict, in which they
will by forced to contest every inch
of ground. No truer men live than
the Unionists of North Alabama, and
they are bringing to their aid a vast
army of colored votes, who thoroughly
understand upon which side it is
their interest to be found.
19* Registration, the first Btep of
actual reconstruction, will shortly be
gin in Arkansas. By order of Gen.
Ord,commanding the Fourth Military
District, Arkansas has been divided
into eleven registration districts, and
elections, both in that State and Mis
sissippi, are prohibited until after
registration is made. The General
concludes his order by urging the
freedmen not to neglect work to en
gage in political discussion ; an ad
vice which we suppose he intended to
apply equally to the whiees.
THE THREATENED EUROPEAN WAR has
had the influence to create a great
demand for American securities.—
Holders of the bonds of European
governments are selling out at every
opportunity to invest their capital in
Amorican securities. Our bonds are
now worth more in Europe than are
those of any of the governments of
the Old World. This speaks well for
the credit of the American people,
and is an evidence of the confidence
entertained by shrewd financiers in
the stability of Republican govern
ment.
*9* A. K. M'CLUTK, of the Frank
lin Repository, will summer on the
Rocky Mountains, whither he leaves
early next week, for the benefit of
the health of an invalid member of
his family. He will be accompanied
by his wife. Virginia City, Montana,
is their ultimate destination, which
they expect to reach via Salt Lake,
Denver, &c.
DOWNFALL OF MAMILIAI.
The correspondence, which has
been sent to the Seuate, between
the Austrian Minister and Mr. Rew
ard, asking the interposition of the
United States government to protect
the person, or save the life, of the
Emperor Maximilian, now supposed
to be in jeopardy at Queretaro, indi
cates how completely the Empire set
up in Mexico in the name of that
Austrian noble has been overthrown;
or, rather, how little there was of the
elements of stability in the country
on which it might rest after the
French had withdrawn their support.
That Maximilian, in accepting the
position of Emperor of Mexico under
the circumstances which he did, after
years of terrible misrule and disor
der in that country, had hope and ex
pectation of accomplishing some
good, that his motives were more or
less creditable,need not be question
ed ; therefore, Mr. Seward's ready
compliance with the request of the
Emperor of Austria to interpose in
behalf of his brother, will not be
otherwise than commended. Maxi
milian and the imperial forces are
closely besieged, and as the city of
Queretaro contains some 50,000 in
habitants, the siege cannot be long
sustained. An attempted sally had
been made but failed. The acque
duct that supplied the city with wa
ter and the roads that supplied it
with provision were all cut off and
commanded by the liberals. The or
ders of Juarez are not to assault the
place, but to reduce it by starvation
and thirst. The Liberals are confi
dent of success, and so far as the
news goes, they have reason to ex
pect it. The only chance of Maxi
millian's escape is to evade the ene
my. But even this may not be pos
sible. It is well known that a special
corps of cavalry has been organized
with the object of capturing the
"Austrian," and there is a wide tract
of couutry between Queretaro and
the frontier, all occupied by his ene
mies on the lookout for him. To
traverse it with only a small escort
would be very unsafe, and to get out
of Queretaro with a large force is
manifestly impossible without fight
ing a successful engagement. But
while the Empire is thus lost,past re
demption, the New Orleans Picayune
does not think there is any expecta
tion that the Republic will be estab
lished. The people of Mexico are
too demoralized to build up by them
selves and sustain any government.
No one thinks any such thing possi
ble,or troubles himself about it. Max
imillian was invited to Mexico by a
large portion of the people, and went
there only in the belief that he could
restore order in the country. When
the French left, a large portion of
the people besought him to remain,
and not leave them in anarchy. He
consented, very foolishly, it is true,
but nevertheless with a laudable hope
that he could be the instrument of
accomplishing some good. If cap
tured and hung,as it is said the Mex
ican leaders have threatened, the
deed will reflect eternal disgrace up
on the Mexican people.— Baltimore

ttaßflt is generally conceded among
sagacious politicians that the De
mocracy of Pennsylvania will not
nominate a candidate for Supreme
Judge, beeause they do not want a
State defeat in Pennsylvania before
the Presidential election of 1868. If
they nominate a Supreme Judge can
didate, ho will, of course, be defeated,
which defeat would demoralize the
Democracy at the Presidential elec
tion of 1868 ; but the ruse to escape
defeat in 1868 by not nominating in
1867 will avail the Democracy naught.
