A TROTECTORATE TO RE ESTABLISHED— PERITALS ANXEXATION. 5 * Spectai Lo handar Times, 4 Pants, April 6.—If it bo truo that France has nssured the other Powers that she will contine herselt to chastising the ralders and hny diselntmed any blow at Tunlsian Inde- vendence, the Government hns either been resorting to 4 euphemlisin or has not realtzed fts own positlon. 1f by independence it means that Tunis will not be annexed, itls sincere; but the term in the mouth of France s meaningless, Sho Is colleeting 15,000 or 20,000 men on the frontier; cavalry regiments fn the centre of Francs have been ordered to start; oficers and soldlers are on the qui vive; clubs, saloons, and lobbics are dlsenss- ing the expedition nagainst Tunis; and newspapers ara announelng the dispateh of speclal correspondents. Any one acquainted with French eagerness and Imagination wust aco that the current hns already carried nway the free- dom of action enjoyed by Cablnets In ordi- nary thnes, and the expedition cannot by ro- stricted to chastising the Krounitrs and pro- tecting the raflway works. Frankness fs called for, and Prince Bismarck has often shown that the greatest cleverness exists fn telling the truth, The truth is that France has not to-dny the slightest thought of nn- nexing ‘Tuids, and has no anxiety for absorb- Ing it In order to find an equally troublesome nelghbor L Trigoll; but she may be forced to think of annexation ta-morrow, and, belng obllzed to do something, her great skill should consist In not doing more thanshe Intends, What she now means behind her diplomatie retleences is to use’ Vg THE KROUMINS as n sereen for disguising hor real march to protect the railway, beeause It goesto Tunls, and beeause she can ndvance to the gutes of that town to protectit, stopying only when she thinks proper. The troops will, there- fore, keep down the Kroumirs and deploy nlong the rallway ns- far as the Government thinks its projects require. They will stop when thelr proximity Is deemed suiclent to arouse the Bey to his danger and induce him to come to an understanding with France on bases lald down by the latter. There can by little doubt that France aims at o protecting convention with the Bey, and will not draw back till it s concluded. A polltical or mili- tary kind of convention will probably be nvoided, ‘The Bey will be left full independs onee nnd the frou dlsposal of his troops, but he will have to enler Intoa commercinl and judiclal convention getting” ridof the anom- olies inherent in native jurlsdictlon, where- Ly the Hanefite rite judges In‘ one fashion and the Maleklte rita in another, whereby, In short, tho subtiety of the Korau, magisterial vennlity, the bad falth of litiznuts, notaries, and advocates presont unavoidable dangers fur every.
