That Russia has avowed herself the ally of Servia, and the possibility that England will interfere, are naturally matters of in- tense interest in political and financial cir- cles bere as at other parts. Should England remain neutral there is not an immediate prospect that all Europe will beshaken by the tread of armies, but should that power decide to interfere a general war may arise, waged on the one band by Russia, inalliance Austria and Italy, and on the other by ‘Dgiand end the Torks. A warin Europe would be the revivification of some of our drooping industries. Tnoasands of men now unewployed would be called into various channels apd avenues of labor. The prices of our breadstnffs would advance with the increased demacd,and the opportunity to restore our commerce woald be manifold ‘With the several mighty powers of Europe arrayed against each other, the Americaa flag would bave fal} sweep upoa the waters of the Atianiic aud the Mediterranean. Safe as it would be from the predatory attack of privateers and cruisers of the hostile po vers. The effect of the war cloud is already shown in our grain markets. The price of wheat a@t the great grannary of the world— Chicago—ad vanced In asingle day from $1 10 to $115. Toe vast amount of gold which Would be needed to conduct a general Earo pean war, suggests the drain which would be made upon us, anc the sequence ts that this standard of value jamps from $1.10 to and is now fiuctuating between those Sgures, and not only would certain indas- tries, controlled largely by tndividual effort and capital, teel the “doost,” but the nation itself would be largely benefitted. The war ry Uns ited States thirtees years ago leftit witha surplusage of arms aud munitions of war. A war io Europe means u pportunity would be given us to “unload,” and the n@tional exchequer would be largely enbanced. This would be ‘upplemented with reduced taxation. And in ovr political relations it would have an effect. Sagacious politicians here assume that the benefits to the republican party would be immeasurabie. paign was & month farther from the end than it ts, a — ee (oon 8] pone vantage republicans, ising prices ot profuce, thus making the ‘iarmere Lappy.

If the powers now threatening each other on the other side of the Atlantic Tosh madly to war, each must sine ws wi isste, and hence be eagerly sought for; but after all, it would finally accrue to ourown advantage, as our bonds would be piaced at hom: ad there is enough of patriotism left, in those haying lus capital, to subscribe to every loan the government might see fit to piace. T: Sed demonstrated that fact beyond que on. The printed statement that the European syndicate would decline to take up ite sub- scription to the 44 per cents. is not regarded as serious by fuancial men. govern- ment can hold the syndicate to its option of $10,000,000, bec&use it has the security, in moeney value, deposited by it to take that amount. Secretary Morrill is not at all apprehensive that even when the option is «Xhausted, that the same syodicate, whether there be @ European war or not, will not be Ee to take the balance of the four-and-a- 8 1fa. even if it should not, there are plenty of American bankers who would ve glad of the chance.
