'®he Condition of Affalrs In Ireland Becoming Alarming. ‘Disorderly Meotings Ocourring Daily at Many Points, RUSSIA, ‘MILITARY PREPAR. ATIONS—AN IMPORTANT PAMPILET. Losnox, Jan. %—The detalled reports of the Russian smilitary preparations whielt -come from yarlous points on the Austrian and German frontiers are beginning to excite attention throughout Europe. A pamphlet has Just been issned whereln the frontier de- fenses of Germany and Russia are elaborately . fiscussed, and the respective advantages of * the different plans of invasion on elther side canvassed. Cho author fis evidently a Ger- man military man, and the appearances of such a pamphiet, under the present elrenm- stances, Is regarded In Berlin as highly significant, The writer expresses a bellet ‘that Germany's enstern frontier Is suf- flelently defended, and that the - German forces can be easily and quickly mobilized ‘and thrown upon important points In sulti- sient strength, even on the shortest notiee, ‘to hold the Russians at bay on the frontter nntil measures of resistance In the Interior ,2an bo thoroughly organized, The following passage closes the trentise: “When, at the beginning of September, the venerable Ger- man Emperor visited Alexander at Alexan- drowe, he showed to the world, with the “ gratifed concurrence of the people, that his i traditional friendly relations to Russia stilt subsisted, and consequently nllayed tle ex- eltement whieh liad been caused In Europe by newspaper reeriminatlons extending over several months, If the Emperor Alexander uttered the words aseribed to hin by the public journals—t Thank Goll, a war with Germany is impossible’—he spoke, we may well believe, in accordance with the feelings of the great tiojority of his loyal subjects. These words: are, It ts to be _ hoped, to be effaced nelther by Nihilists nor Pan-Siavonte agitators, nor by those restless ‘statesmen and Generals who, notwithstand- ‘ing their experlenca of tho Russe-Turkish (War, desire to satiute thelr thirst for glory by an attack upon Germany, ‘Should thoy ‘venture upon this, they may, perhaps. find that thelr object will bu n trifle more dimeult -of attainment in this country than it proved sin Durkoy.” MINISTER APPOINTED. §r.

Do Freyelnet, the French Premier, in’ reply to Prince Biamarck’s In- quiry, had given a sntisfactory statement of Als foreign policy and adds that no Ministry In France cnn Inst lung if Bismarck opposes it Tosuch a purpose, Heayen be thanked, wo possess the requisite material, force, and powor which stands atthe head of tt, No State can stand on good terns with Germany which enters into political intlmacy with Rusaia, “ After his oxplauation De Freyelnet, like his predecessor, will prudently regard ‘any tuo close'connection with Russin as dunger- ous, and will DECLINE TO PLAY WTI FINK, And, therefore, so long as he is all right with Princo Bismarck he may for the rest be In Ls polltieal Ideas aJacobin or not.
