Schleswig-Holstein question and the rest of them, momentarily put into the shade by the Spanish revolution—are beginning to loom up gain and threaten to become more alarming thanever. It is this which gives importance to the news from Austria. It is the first un- mistakablo indication that, in the estimation of the governments of Europe, the situation is Rot materially affected by what has taken place in Spain. » This view of the situation is supported by the prevailing sentiment of the European press. The French papers, particularly, are more oc- cupied with discussions on the non-fulfilment of the treaty of Prague by Prussia, on the dif- ficulties along the line of the Danube, on the probable fate of Austria and Turkey, upon the opportunities of Russia and Prussia, than they were before the Spanish revolution broke out, Without going into these discussions, it may with safety be asserted that, what with Spain in quest of a king, the treaty of Prague not fulfilled, dualism threatening to become Plaralism in Austria, and Turkey, in spite of reform, becoming more and more an incohe- rent mass, Europe has complications enough to make war and a rearrangement of bounda- ries something more than early probabilities, We shall not venture for the present to fore- cast the future with over much confidence. There aro two empires which are in peculiar danger and whose future hangs doubtfully in the balance. Austria may become greater and more powerful than ever; so may Turkey ; but there are men now living who have paid much attention to European history who would not be surprised to learn that both these empires had become things of the past. The failure of Austria and of Turkey in thelr work of reform will be a serious gain to both Russia and Prussia. An immediate calamity, it would yet be an ultimate gain, for it would be an impor- tant step towards the confederation of Europe. Mum's raz Worp.—The Mantalinis of the Manhattan Club have not a word to say about the splendid democratic speech of General Blair on Tuesday evening at Tammany Hall. They did not like it, they did not want him, and to think that he would come and speak in Tammany after being notified that Seymour was the only candidate: on the democratic ticket they could any longer recognize, waa too much. After the election we suspect these ohaps will hear from General Blair. NOLES ABOUT TOWN, Torchtight processions are all the rage just now. Well, there's nothing like olling the machinery of Parag and throwing light on excecdingly dark aub- jects. ‘There are a number of large ciocks placed on posts mear the curbstones on Broadway, and these are being gradually added to. They are, notwithstand- ing thoir usefulness, merely “signs of the time” for ohronometer makers. Notwithstanding the fun made of it, the Saratoga @inease—the “Grecian bend”—does not take, except with the extremists in fashion. The bend is to be seen in Broadway on occasions only, Withstanding temptation, sensible women say to it, “Get thee be- hind me, Satan.” When the election is over what will they do with Tammany Hall? Is the council chamber to remain @olitude and the “big InJin’”’ m the litte alcove in the front to be taken in and painted copperhead color—in the event of the election of Grant, the gov- ernment being no longer @ white man’s, How much “‘chiselling” in Wall street a man with- out Vargent must go through before he can see his mame on the roll of the Stock Exchange!

As might have been supposed, this being the closing night of the present appearance in opera before a New York audience of America’s famous Queen of Song, if not, in fact, Queen of the World, the spacious Academy was crowded to ita utmost capa- city, making even standing room in demand, The “Barber of Seville’ was the opera.

From the high comedy of Beatrice she proceeded to the inelodrama of Lady Clara Vere de Vere's love and rendered the character with versatile facility.
