FRANCE, Whe Policy for Peace or War—Canvass of the Siteation—Napoleon’s Resources and N oity. . Lonpon, August 30, 1868, “ ‘The possibility of war on the Continent is more and more discussed by the leading European jour- Dals, The opinion generally expressed is that Prussia, though ready for war, really desires the continuance Of peace, but that to Austria and Russia peace is in- “dispensable, and that the French Emperor 1s now ‘undoubtedly prepared for a conflict, but his policy ts ‘uncertain. * W The Lé@erat, of Toulouse, says:—Marshal Niel, who 4s on a visit to that city, told the Council General that the army was animated by the best spirit, its ar- ‘mament was complete, the arsenals were full of ma- Yerlal, the financial resources of the empire were ‘mexhaustible, and, compared with other Powers, ‘France alone was equally: ready for peace or war. Some people think that the necessity of divert ing the discontent of certain classes in France may ‘Cause the Emperor to adopt a warlike Policy. They say Yhe election by so large a majority of the lUberal ‘vandidate, M.

Add to these circumstances the expense of &eeping an abnormal armament on foot, and the uragement to war offered by the success of the Yast loan, there ts reason, these people say, to expect war in autumn or spring. Corroboration of these is sought in a recent leading editorial ih the nel urging the claims of the Empress Bugénie to tho Regency. It is argued that such ‘Claims as those would not be put forth at this time ‘Were it not anticipated that the Emperor might have he an.army and be exposed to the perils of the $ On the other hand, to affect these forebodings, are, the official pledges of peace datly made, ‘the advice officially given to act as if assured of Peace; and the argument so frequently urged by the French government that their very completeness of ‘the armament is a guaranty of peace. * Recent and sudden changes of feeling on the ‘Bourse and the variations in rentes are explained as fesults of the alternate ascendancy of these opposing ‘views at the financial centre of France.

The monthly statement of the public debt will Probably not be issued before next Friday. At pre- sent there ig no means of judging with any degree of certainty as to the exhibit which will be made, ‘The Danger of a War with tho Indians and How It May Be Averted, Gentlemen of official prominence say there is dan- ger of general war on the Western and Southwestern frontier, and that it will be inevitable uniess great prudence be exercised by the military, which ought to be governed by the letter of the treaty made in 1867 with the Cheyennes and Arapahoes at Medicine Lodge Creek by the Peace Commissioners. This treaty provides against such depredations as have recently been committed by Indians on sundry white settlers, They add that there ought to be a demand of the Cheyenne and Arapahoe nation in council assembled, through the legally recognized agents of the Indian Bureau, for the surrender of the Indians guilty of tho recent outrages, supported and sustained by a sufficient military force, so that they May be punished and the innocent protected and the general peace maintained, If measures other than these be undertaken and an indiscriminate onslaught on the Indians commenced there is reason to fear, from the known spirit of the army, that there will be a disastrous war of indefinite continu- ance, drawing into ite vortex thousands of Indians now at peace with the United States, and, besides the cost of lives, involving the government in the expenditure of millions of doliars. A little prudence and discretion and a wise discrimination between the guilty and the innocent by the military authorities now exercising jurisdiction in this matter may accomplish all that the ends of justice demand without the sacrifice of life and treasure involved in such a war. The present difficulties originated with less than two hundred and fifty of the Chey- ennes, Arapahocs and Sioux. They are called the “dog soldiers,” are young men, and started for Ne- braska to punish their hereditary enemies, the Paw- nees. Passing through the intermediate country they committed the murders and other outrages to which publicity has already been given—acting in this way not only against treaty obligations, but contrary to the wishes of the confederated nation to which they belong. Postal Convention Between Great Britain and the United States. A postal convention has just been concluded be- tween the United States and the British Post Office Department for establishing and regulating an ex- change of mails between the United States, the Straits settlements and the British East Indies by means conjointly of the line of United States mali steamers plying betweeen San Francisco and Hong Kong, China, and of the line of British mail packets plying between Hong Kong and Singapore, Calcutta, Madras, Bombay and Aden. Its leading provisions are as follows:—On and after the ist of November, 1868 (the date on which this convention is to be earried into operation), the postage to be levied and collected in the United States upon correspondence of all kinds posted in the United States and addressed to the Straits settlements or the British East Indies for transmission by this route will be:—Ten cents per single rate of half ounce or under, on letters; two cents each on newspapers and eight cents per four ounces or fraction thereof on books, packets, pat terns and samples, The correspondence thus pre- paid in the United States will be delivered at the Proper destinations in the British East India pos sessions free of all charges whatever, Prepayment is obligatory on newspapers, book packets and pat- terns, but letters posted unpaid or insuMciently paid will nevertheless be forwarded and charged at the Place of destination in the Straits settlements or the British East Indies with @ postage of ten Pence (twenty cents), per single rate, together with a fine of sixpence (twelve cents), Paid corres- pondence of all kinds received from the Straits settio- ments and the British East Indies by this route will be delivered at tho office of destination in the United States free of all charge whatever; but unpaid or in- sufficiently paid letters so received will be charged on delivery with @ postage of ten cents per single rate of half an ounce or under, together with s fine of twelve cents each. No accounts will be kept be- tween the respective Post Departments of the corre- spondence thus exchanged, each department retain- ing all the postage which it collects both on paid matter sent and unpaid matter received.

In vain has the Prussian government tried to quash the former matter by declaring both the war record of 1866 published by the general staff of the Prussian army and the note written by Count Usedom to the Italian Commander-in-Chief as non-official. General La Marmora’s indiscretion in revealing the contents of the note dated June 17, 1866, is still on the tapis, and an article in the Italian journal Opinione, of Florence, has poured oil on the fire. It says that the declaration of the Prussian government is “a solemn satisfaction” given to General La Marmora, to which the Prussian official Staats-Anzetger re Piles:—“We have been far from approving or ex- cusing General La Marmora’s conduct in this matter. It ts condemned in official and non-official circles mside and outside of Prussia, and even by the public opinion of Italy. At all events it 1s remarkable to notice how the royal Berlin press, crowded to the wall, has come out with the defence that if Prussia seriously thought of inveigling the Hungarians to rise up against Austria it was precisely the same means of warfare employed by Austria, she having ordered one of her generals of Polish descent to revo- lutionize the Poles and with them seize the province of Posen, It is contended by some that Prussia, even at this moment, is conspiring with the revolutionary element in ray and a Saxony journal plainly says that Mazzini, his recent stay at Li 10, Was mare ‘Prussian agent from cunt Bismarck, e 9 interviews with this messenger and with rominent Italians, which were only inerruptes by he close surveillance of the authorities. ir was to advance one hundred million francs, of which one-half had been already paid, the remainder to be settled at Ostend, whither the agents of Bismarck and Mazzini had moved for greater ee Whether or not this 13 a canard must be unde- cided. It is certain, however, that the hyper-conser- vatives of Prussia have seen no other way to get out of hot water than by an indirect admission of the Aappcumends hay conspired in 1866 with the red lemocracy. It is said that Count Usedom will leave Florence for a few months to Eve this affair a chance of blowing over, though a fur! rein just now does not additional strength im- seem likely in view of the puted to the La Marmora party by the rumored withdrawal of the French Ambassador, M. Malaret, as much hated by the Italian liberals as Herr von Usedom is liked, to be repiaced by the Berlin Envoy, M. Benedetti, a persona grata Italy, whose post would in that event be filled Pe Marquis de Ban- neville, accredited at present to Switzerland, Many are the rumors concerning the motives of General Vogel von Falkenstein’s removal from the command of the First Army corps and putting Gen- eral von Manteuifei in his place. It is generally re- ee a8 a successful stroke against Count ismarck’s personal influence with the King, as the action of a camarilla which has ee by the absence of its master to estrange him from the powers that be. Another rumor speaks of serious neglect of duty imputed to General von Falkenstein in not occupying certain mountain passes in the operations in 1866 against the South German army, and connects with it the present journey of Gene Moltke, accompanied by a large number of staff oMicers and engineers, to the former battle grounds of the First Army corps, where strategical investiga- tions are to take place. It is further sald that the legislatures of the several States of the North Ger- man Oonfederation will be convened early in October, go that there shall be no collision, as was the case last year, between their seasions and that of the Reichstag. The Prussian Chambers are to close their work in December, the Reichstag would at once commence in January, to be succeeded by the Zoll Parliament, and all legislative labor be finished in May, 1869, Count Bismarck’s pI jal condition fs not as favorable as stated some journals; is uite uncertain if he will be able to attend the Prussian Chambers, and his physiclans de- clare that the nature of his amiiction preciudes the idea of such assiduous work. Admonition is repeated, from time to time, to all letter writers and petitioners not to address their communications to Varzin, the Count’s estate in Pomerania, as all let- tera are sent unopened to the Berlin department.
