New Yonr, Oct. 18.—1'he Herald's Washing- ton speclal gives s version of the arrest of Count von Aruim, obtainod, as tho Herald snys edivorially, from the hLighest available sourcos in America upon Germuu affaws, The fullow- ing aru the pom I'his Oount wus sent to Paris as Ambasasndor, and oxplicitly conrged to inalntain the most pencoful sud agreeable coarss in ol hin dealiigs with Fronchh oflicials, Bismarck bimself propared tho inatiuctions which were to guide Count von Amim in biu now positivn, No eooner bad the Ambagsador proacuted o credentinly, and been formnlly re- carved by T'hifors, than ho began to maxo himsell offenkive to overybody counceted with the French Government. It rocwad that tho Count had sccepted tho trust fully determived to again involve Gormany aud Fianco in nostilitios, or compel his Governmaut - to incroase 1tn army of ocoupation in Franco, Iiis flrut stop wan mont oxtraordinary and unpreco- donted. Addiessing the Emperor William private- Iy, he eridisisod the policy of Dlsmarck s4 un- wortly of the Governmont, and oxcusing bis familiarity on the ground that he could not con- fidoutly commuuicate thirough the Foroign Ollice, Thig was the boginniug of the corroapondenco Dbetween Biemarck as Ohancelfor and von Arnim as Ambnesador, comprising eighty-two com- municationy, which von Araim withdrow from the archioves of tho FEmlassy at Paris, and which tho Germau Guvern- went, through the Crimiml Court at Derlin, now seeks to recover. 'The firme ntima 1ion the Berhn Foreign Onice had of von Arnfw's intriguo was through leading Catholic papers of Gormany praising vou Arniin s the fit successor of Bismoick, and denouncing the latter a8 wholly unworthy of the high pusition lio Leld. The letior of von Arnim to tue Imporor was promptly sent to the Chancellor, resulting iv & sharp and imperative noto to the Couut that ccr- respondence on matters poreaiving to toe policy aod iuterckt of the Junpire must be held only with the Foreizu Offico, Lo this yon Arnim re- liad, not abating his pronounced hortility to ismarck, and 1enewing his eriticism of the in- structions which had teen prapared by Dismareit, It thon bocame a serious question ut Borlin what to do with tho Count, To rocall him et thut early stage of tha new 1clatious of Gormauy with Frauce would lead other uropoan nations to bolieve that thero was some foundation for the report of now _complications, wos thorefors dotermined ,to forh public 1ecogpition of von Arnim’s courso until such time ns it could be done without rcandal to the diplomatio rolations_of Goimany with France. von Arnim succaeded fn gaioing the co-opora~ tion of prominent Cathoiic memvers of tie Ger- man Patliament in his opposition to DBismarek, aud the next step was to engage tho Irencn press in the quarrel, Thus it was that it became hocessary to vigoroaly usa tho organ of (be Gorman Governwent in combatting the work of You Arnim, and, as often as thero appeered 1 any of the Garman or French journels ovidence of ‘opposition to the policy of Germany, rticles insplied by Dismarck wero published donying the asgertions on wiich the attacks wero made, The offensive conduct of the Conntextonded into the admimstration of MacMahoo, sud when yon Arnim was directed by Bismarcltonssurn the now President of the enfenle cordiale on the pert of Gernoany toward France, von Arnim replied that he was ot on good tormis with AlacMalion, and could not communicate with him. Dismarck forcibly replied that it was the duty of an Ame baseador to maintein friendly rolations with the officials of tho Government to which he wze ac- credited, and not allow his personal feelings to interfora with his oflicial duties, Iu Junuarylast mattors ronched a _crisis, The press tolegrama to Berlin sud London from Yaris showed con- clueively that the Count had engaged in a holder lan than ever. Tho Embasay had been brought into contompt, while the Berlin Foreign Oitice was boewildered to find so much information go- ing in every direction, clsiming to bo of o semi-officiel character, and which way antirely af vavianco with tho insiructions sont out by the Foreign Oflice. ‘Uhero was but ons remody, and that was to recall yon Arnim aund sond him to Constantinople. Tho Connt conelders the eighty-two letters as of & porszonal chaructor and not belongivg to the Embassy ; whinle Bismarck insikts that tho papers nbstract- cd wera n part of thoe rocord of the Embnsay, addressed to the German Ambasssdor, end wnof to von Arntm porsonally. 7L MONLOE DOCTRINE, The Herald's Washinglon specinl says the Geumun Clovernmont by positively disclaimea any intention of purchasing a naval station in Couta Ricn, with additicnal arsurances that tho German Government not ouly rospects the Mon- roe doctring, but most certainly approves it, and tuat, Jike the Unitod States, Germuny has no need of naval stations in distant countries., CLOSELY CONFINED.
