ISOLATED. A special despatch to the Standard from Berlin states that in consequence of domiciliary visits to the residences of the friends of Count Von Arnim throughout the German Empire they cannot com- maunicate with him. Itis reported, says the despatch, “that these events are connected with a forthcoming book, the early sheets of which are already in circula- tion in ultramontane circles in Munich and Vienna.” A GRRAT NUMBER OF DOCUMENTS OF STATE MISSING. It is now said the missing documents Dumber 100, What the Prisoner Says in an Unofficial Explanation. BERLIN, Oct. 8, 1874. Count Von Arnim had an interview with his son and & government oficial yesterday. In the course of the conversation the Count protested against the insinuation that he nad published or intended to publish any of the documents retained by him. He asserted tnat there were no State seerets con- tained in the papers, He also said that he noticed in the spring that there was a deficiency in the documents belonging to the archives of the Paris Embassy, Count Von Arnim’s Diplomacy in Favor of President MacMahon—Bismarck’s Antagonism. PARIS, Oct. 8, 1874, Tne Journal de Paris says that Count Von Arnim, when Ambassador at Paris, hastened the downfall of President Thiers and urged Germany to recognize the government ot MacMahon imme- diately. Pringe Bismarck disapproved of this course of Von Arnim, and wrote to the latter explaining the reason why he preferred the policy of Thiers to that of MacMahon. The Journal says these are the letters of Bis- marck which are missing. Italian Opinion of the Contents of the Missing Documents. Roms, Oct. 8, 1874 The Voce della Vertia says, in relation to Count Von Arnim’s arrest, that there is reason to believe that the missing aocuments relate to the establishment of a new government in France and to German interference in Spanisn affairs. THE VON ARNIM PAPERS. Principal and Pungent Points of the Most Important of the Von Arnim- Bismarck-Dollinger Correspondence. The series of German State documents which the Emperor William and Prince Bismarck are so anxious to recover from Count Von Araim or from his friends in Germany or abroad contain the in- stractions which were despatched by Bismarck to Count Von Arnim in reply to despatches which the Prince Chancellor received from the Count when the latter filicd the office of Prussian Minister in Rome. The contents of these letters go to show that Bismarck, in 1869, did not meditate, by any means, hostility to the Catholic clergy, but that he feared the assemblage of the Vatican Council, and entertained the opinion that Prussia and the Ger- man peoples were likely to be affected injuriousiy | in their social interests by its decrees. Bismarck’s Instructions to Von Arnim in Rome. ‘The first paper in the series, dated May 26, 1869, is in answer to @ suggestion made by Count Aroim that the Prussian government should claim to be Tepresented at the Vatican Council by two dele- gates (oratores). To this proposal Herr von Bis- marcK very decidedly refuses his assent. He judges that it would be a serious mistake, and the King (William) shares his apprehension. In the first place, it is not at ail likely that the Curia would grant the request to a power which it re- gards as heretical, Moreover, supposing the two oratores obtained admission to the sittings of the Council, they would be absolutely powerless op- posed to the immense majority of bish- ops. They wonld be constantly opposed to hostile atiacks, coun? @ most undignified position, and in the end their presence would do more harm than good; for Prossia having recog- nized and taken part in the proceedings, would be bound by the resolutions, en at the time of the Council of Trent, to which Count Von Arnim refers a8 @ precedent, matters stood otherwise. ‘The Curia had not then advanced its present extrava- gant pretensions; it still recognized the existence of two different spheres, ruled over respectivel, by the Church the State. It also recognize @ border land where the authority was question- able and had to be determined by compromisi id it even allowed the right o1 temporal power interfere in matters ecclesiastic. Since then things have cempletely changed; but Prussia has not even yet ern the resolution of the Council of Trent, and will hold equally aloof from the Council of 1870. It has only one rule to guide its action—namely, to allow perfect liberty in eccle- siastical matters, to resist aeterminedly every pretension conflicting with ita prerogative, What the Emperor Napoleon does is utterly immaterial to Prussia. But while M. Bismarck must refuse to interfere with the proceedings of the Council, or to take part in them, he can but approve manifesta- tions proceeding irom the consciousness of inde- endent power, and serving as warnings to the ria that its pretensions will not be allowed,” Count Arnim ts aivised ‘to enter into negotiations for the purpose With the representatives of other German Powers, in order that all Germany may ap- Dear to act, and reaily act, in concert,?? ‘The second despatch is dated January 5, 1870. In this document Count Bismarck designates the gen- ersl condition of things at Rome asso “chaotic” that it is as yet impossible for him to se- lect @ proper basis of operation. He does not share the Ambassador’s grave apprenen- sions of national daugers threatening from the - action of the Council, use the Pr foels itself strong in administration as well 96 legislation, and ts ported by public opinion and national feelin which would never submit to al arrogance. The Ambassador mast not forget that the popula- tion of Prussia 1s mainly Protestant, and thereby affords a poweriul support to government in its dealings with the Curia in comparison with other Catholic Powers, Whatever be the impending Change in the relations between Berlin and the Vatican Berlin will not be the loser. However, Count Bismarck does not antietpate that things will come to this extreme pass. @ organism of the Roman Catholic Church affords & good basis for @ mutual understanding, and he hopes it will not be changed, He must still decidedly decline to Interfere in the proceedi: of the Council, Snoch interference would be diMenit 2nd ineffec- ae ani taly are not diplomatically represented. No action in concert is posst ble with the Austrian Minister. What weight would an “anti-council”’ of diplomatic represepta- tives such as Count Arnim pr a4 should be held contemporaneously with the Ecumenical Council Sey wise it if composed only of the Ministers of North Germany, Bavaria (not representi the other Sonth German States) and Portugalt None at ail No; the resistance to the Papal prevensions must be leftto the German bishops alone. Count Arnim ts directed to encourage and support them, to indicate to them the position which Prussia takes up, and if be can strengthen whis influence by enlisting the Bavarian and Portuguese Minis- ters in the same cause, so much the bemer. ‘The German bishops in resisting the Curia will be sure of the government's sympatoy, and also of its eventual support and protection, The govern- Ment on its part will not allow itself to be shaken from its attitade of quiet and dignified neutraiity. If the Holy See thinks good to alter its relations with it the government can afford to rely on its Own strength for the future. The same opinions and instructions are ex- pressed in the third despatch, dated March 13, 870. Count Bismarck notes with satisfaction the entente previously between the German and the Austrian bishops, and recognizes their right to protest against the application of the vote to dog. matic differences; but it 1s for the bishops to fight it out with the Guna. ‘The Prussian government cannot go a step iurther than the bishops them- seWes go. As taras they go they may count on Prussian support. The government will protect them from any temporal prejadice arising from their dissentient vote, if any Mee govern- ments were to interiere it would for Roman Catholic sorericeliy todo 80. As they do not choose to interfere Protestant Prussia has not the slightest occasion for such @ course, Von Arnim’s Letter to Dr. Dollinger. We publish underneath the text of a celebrated letter which was addressed by Count Von Arnim to Dr. Doéllinger at Munich, The knowledge of its contents caused much excitement in Berlin.— Paris, April 21, 1873, Most VENRRABLE StR—The North German Gazette Pubilshed some days since a report drawn up by me in May, 1869, which did not escape your notice. To my great regret the object with whicn this Publication was made dia not permit the suppres- Sion of those passages which contained the name of Your Excellency. I am, therelore, compelie @sk your pardon for haviag incidentally, in 1569, Made @ reference to you in a fashion which did not allow me fully to express my respect for you, You will then more readily forgive me when you recoliect that at the pericd referred to I had not the honor ot kuowing you. It is said that the report of May, 1869, is @ contradiction to the views expressed in @ memorial Of mine published by the /resse of Vienna, Imay observe that I did not seek for the appearance ofthe publication. I have a copy of the memorial, which differs in some respects irom the document mage pupiic; but it would be absurd for me to say that the documentis apocry- phal. The alterations were evidently made for the Purpose of affecung certain personages. With regard to the discrepancy of iy views in 1869 and 1870 1t 18 very trifling, In 1870, also, I attached less importance to the dogina ot intaliibility than to the manner in which it was brought out. Had the German bishops from the outset declared that Papal iniallibinty was a self-evident theory, and had consequently no practical value, the governments could not have mixed up in the question. But the attitude of the German and Austrian bishops in the autumn of 1869, and during the Council, made me realize the tuil importance of the effort of the Holy See. I waa convinced that ipfallibiluty was more than a Precious but empty vase, destined to ornament the Vatican; that it was a box of Pandora, wich | eventually sent forth most dangerous ingredients to the Chiristian world, Consequently I willingly accept the charge that I profiled by my experi- ence from May, 1569, to July, 1870. If I learned anything during that time I am especially indebted to the German bisiops, who were good enough to show me the consequences o1 the | dogma. On that occasion a totally useless discus- sion was also raised in propounding the question whether the despatch of an ambassador to the Council would have given another turn to aflairs, Who can now answer that question? As for me, I persist in thinking that the leaders of the un- dertaking—at least it they had acted as I advisea— would have imitated that hero who went to battle to cor awe the world and came home because it rained! Lregret above all that the conlerences opened by tne Prince of Hoheniohe did not give rise to more serious pegotiations, If tue abundant weeds which were cultivated by the Council had been crushed in the bua we shouid not find our- selves to-day entangled in an incomprehensible maze which brings into question what had long appeared to be the common property of Christiao- ly. Accept, &c., your devoted, ARNIM. The Count’s Defence Against Bismarck’s First Attacks, We are enabled to publish the following letter from Count von Arnim, written after his vacation of the German embassy in Paris, in explanation of his communication to Dr. Doilinger, which created @ sensation at the Prussian Court, and caused his retirement from the diplomatic service, It reads as follows:— BERLIN, May 1, 1873, Having arrived here from Paris yesterday, I find | in the newspapers of the capital a Series of articles attacking me on account o1 a letter which I have | My oficial posi- | addressed to Herr von Dollinger. tion but may nevertheless already to-day protest agatnst one charge which is continually being re- | peated—viz., that of having entered upon a con- troversy with the responsible director of the German policy. 1 am surprised at the ingenious- ness with which so grave an accusation is publicly made, and ts intended to be gradually represented a3 an undisputed fact. 1 see myself, theretore, under the necessity to prove, by stating the cir- cumstances of the case, that I have not taken the initiative in engaging in a public controversy, bus that I have been forced to throw off the reserve I have hitherto been able to matntain in spite of all provocations, by & publication relating to mysel’, over which I had no influence. In a foreign jou Dal certain documents have been have directed the attention of the public to the Aistory of the Council. It is not necessary for me to inquire who has caused this publication; tt is enough to say that Ihave not caused it. Imme- diately afterward there were published in a Berlin newspaper oflictal documents which completed the disclosures. Up to this point there is nothing ex- traordinary in tue whole proceeding. The docu- ments published at Vienna contain nothing new and nothing that could be disagreeable to the directory of the German policy. Just as little can the “instructions” have surprised those who are even only superficially conversant with the diplo- matic history of the last tew years. As regards tue publication of my report oi the 14th of May, 1869, the contents of which are entirely confiden- tial, tne matter stands somewhat ditferently. a one will admit that this pubdiication 18 op- posed to the traditions, not only of Prussian, but of every diplomacy. I affirm this fact without wishing in any way to criticise. To break with traditions may Ug eb be necessary, and some- times be useful. It was not necessary for me to judge why it was necessary in this case, and whether it was useful. But there was one special circumstance which obligea me take notice of this publication, In my report of the 14th of May, 1869, I had written about Herr von Doliinger in a Manner which must deeply hurt that estimable person. My arm had, in a manner, been directed to strike a person who has a right to count me | among his warmest adnerents, Herr von Dolitn- get could, however, not know wheter this move- ment of my arm was really altogether involuntary on part. He could, on the.contrary, supose that I had been informed of the intended publica- tion of my confidential report before 1t was or- dered. lowed, therefore, reparation to Herr von Dollinger, and I was obliged to leave it to him to make it public as the hurt had been public, Herr von Doilinger has published my letter, and I thank him tor it, for itcontains nothing which I have ground to recall or to explain away. The “controversy” with the responsible leader of Germany's policy has been ‘‘read into the let- ter,” and not “out of it.” Ishall return to this potot on another occasion. to affirm that I have not come.publicly forward to discuss politics.

The engine of the coal trgin struck the passenger train between the baggage and frst passenger cars, and two pas- Senger cara were thrown intoa ditch, Fortunately no hives were lost, although several persons had limbs broken and were otherwise injured, THE CASUALTIES, The following are those most seriously hurt:— George Hewlid, foot crusned, Mrs, Franks, arm broken, A girl named Burd, residing in Germantown, had her band crushed, A lady from New York, coming on a visit to this city, had her shoulder dislocated, The engineer of the passenger train ts said to here gives this account of how the accident hap- pened :— OAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT, He slowed up as he came to the crossing, when be saw that the signal there indicatea “go ahead”? for his train, and that it was reversed alter he had again started and had struck the Connecting road and too late for him to stop. He supposes that in reversing the signal from “go ahead” to “stop” for his train the lookout man aiso signalled the ovner train to come on, thinking tnat he would have time to clear the Connecting road before the coal engine came up, but that was a muiscalcula- ton, and hence the colliston.

Steinway Hall—Miss Sophia Heilbron’s Concert. A young pianiste made her début in this city last night in Liszt's transcription of the waltz from Gounod’s “Faust.” She is a cousin of the prima donna of the Strakosch Italian Opera Company, and 1s young, handsome and talented. In the stormy setting of the “Faust” waitz, with its pe- cullar Lisat passages, Miss Heilbron made a suc- cess of the most decided kind. Her playing may be characterized as neat, finished, crisp aud ful of expression. ‘rhere is none of the rudeness of the average young girl at the piano, no thumping nor indistinctness, but a clear, quiet, tasteful in- terpretation of a work. Miss Helibron made a success of the most unequivocal kind last night.

SULLIVAN, FREDERICK G. GEDNEY, LAURENA HUTTON, EXTENSIVE FIRE. A Large Rubber Factory in West Twenty-fifth Street Burned to the Ground—A Man Crushed Beneath the Falling Walls—Loss Estimated at $150,000. Ata quarter to three o’clock yesterday after- noon an extensive fire broke out tn the second floor of the Gutta Percba Manufacturing Company's buildings, numbered from 516 to 630 West Twenty- fifth street. An officer of the Sixteenth pre- cinet, seeing the flames, ran to the signal box on the corner of Twenty-fifth street and Tenth avenue, and sent out the alarm. A moment later the man in the immediate neighborhood, who had the box key in his possession, hurried to the box and sent the signal again. This had the effect of spolling the alarm, so that the fremen, while they knew a fire was fares somewuere, could not | qscertain ita location. This resulted very dis- | astrously, as the fire had been purning at’ least thirty minutes before an engine was on the round, Prom the second floor the flames spread ver; rapidly throughout the entire structure and defie ail efforts uf the Fire Department. Three alarms were sent out when it had been discovered that the engines did not respond to the first, but they might as weil have stayed in their quarters for ail the good they did, The fire barned wita frightful fury owing to the inflammable nature of the stock stored in the building. ‘The loss on the stock of the gutta percha company | will foot up to about $100,000, All the macninery } Committee, loss here will amount to $30,000.
