Loxpox, April 4.—A speclal from Berlin to thie Times, dlscussing Prince Bismarck's resig- natlon, says: “Prince Blsmarck’s motive was probably complex. - His health is by no.means good, and his Influence on Prussian’ domestte affalrs very limited, owing to the traditional judependence of each Cabinet Minlster, while the concentratfon of affalrs in the handsof an Inperial Administration is fmpeded, not only by tne resistance of the minor Governments but also by opposition proceeding from the chiefs ot the varlous Prusslan De- artments, as ° was concluded from Prince fsmorck! language * on the occasion the Von Stoscli afTalr, which made a deep Im- ‘pression upon him, (en.

While Russta Is well aware how dml.;ult it will be, In view of the recent npflnuded declarations speakers n the Turkish Parliament the rejoction the | prop- ositions of the Powers in the Con- stantinuple Conference, other conditions are added which will try Turkish pride to the ut- most. Russia announces flnal I¥, that she fs willing to treat directly with the Porte, and that she wfil receive a apecfal Turkish Commission in 8t. Petersburg, tho sald Commisiion to come sollefting Russia to disarm, thus satistying Russia’s atnour propre. Sucl actlon, It Is hint- ed, would reinove Russin’s objection toa rizht of interference by the Powers. Thus, without n distinct enunclatlon, the idea of slmultancous disarinament {8 hinted at in the final shape of the protocol, This watery compromise throneh which It Is possible at any motnent for the prow of resolve tocut, It will be secn, amounts to nothing more than a sort of rolemn call on Turkey to carry ont the refurms specified in the first instance in the Berlin note, aud, secondly, formulated in the Conference. It leaves things s they were. Turkey called to account plus & plece of parchment, plus u decp-seated Indigna- tion In Russia and her Germanally, It {sthought In sowne quarters that the Ambassadors will re- turn to Constantiuople within a fortnight. THE QUESTION POR EUROPE. The question now before Euro]:e {s, must England be reduced ton sccondclass Powerd Russia’s refusal to demobilize in submission to England {s sustaiued by Germany, and there is a subatantinl pledge that the {mperisl allinnce has been strengthened through a sense of of- fended dignjty ot England assuming to act as dictator to Europe, while being, in reality, ns much the dupe of Blamarck as Napoleon III was when wheedled §nto Sedan. Germany has the hestdiselplined army and the highest militar, prestige in Eatrope, and her financial and social conditfons demand the stimulus of war, Rus- #ia wants Constantinople, Germany seeks Hol- land and the Uerman provinces ‘of Austris. Russia and Germany will move ugnlmt Turkey and Engiand with ships purchased o America, and scour English commerce from the ocean and blockade English ports, giving an immense impetus ta Amcfimn industry, 1t is evident that tremendous events arc fo preparation, in which America will play a prominent part.
