THE COUNCIL OF THE EMPDERORS—MOTIVES FOR PEACE STRONGER THAN THZ TENDENCY | TO WAR-—THE POSITION OF THE PAPACY IN EUROPE AND AMENICA. WASHINGTON, May 12, 1375, The situation in Europe continues to engage Much attention in diplomatic circles. resentatives at the courts of covtinental Eu- rope are still keeping a watchful eye upon the progress of events, and the State Department is regularly advised of the resalt of their observa- tons, . HON, GEORGE BANOROFT’S OPINION. Mr. Bancroit, jate United States Minister at berlin, hi since his return to this country, kept ap his relations wich the statesmen and diplomats bf Europe, and particularly those of Germany, through frequent correspondence, By this means Mr. Baycroft has been kept fully informed of the political movements and the attitude of the Ait ferent Powers toward each other, This, combined with Mr. Bancro{t’s ripe experience in diplomacy, probably makes him the best authority on Euro- pean complicailons and possibilities of any one | | resident at this capital. i WHAT THE EX-MINISTER HEARS AND WHAT HE THINKS. Mr. Boncroft, in conversation, to-day, said ttat the letters which he had recently received from Germany led him to the conclusion that Germany had not, a» was populariy supposed, any sinister designs | upon belgium. Lelgium any right consistent with her treaty ob- ligations, to harbor bishops of the Catholtc church, or any other persons whose object wus to foment disturbances in Germany. Jt was periectly proper, therefore, for Prince Bismarck to address a note of remonstrance to Belgium, reminding that power of her international obligations, and insisting upon their observance. BELGIUM AN ANCIENT BUT RESPECTABLE DIFFICULTY. Bismarck, of course, is perfectly aware that any attempt to interfere with the independence of an ancient Power like Belgium would lead to results impossible to foretell. The torctbie acquisition of Belgium would introduce an element of discord into German politics which would very tar over- balance any mere geographical advantage to be gained, THE COUNCIL OF THE KAISERS, Mr. Bancroft looks upon the present visit of the Czar of Russia to the Emperor of Germany as one of iriendship ony. The Emperor's sister is the mother of the Czar. During Mr, Bancroft’s resi- dence at the German capital when the Franco-Rus- bien war was raging he was personally cognizant of the gratification felt by the Emperor that Rus- | sia abstained from any participation in the strag- gie. Immediately alter the close of ihe war, Em- peror William had intended to express this grati- fication inw personal visit to St. Petersburg, but | his physicians advised against his making the journey. The Crown Prince of Germany haa therefore Leea deputed to make the visit for the Emperor Alexander. Mr. Bancroft says that of course, when the crowned neads of such important Powers visit each other, they take advantage of the opportunity to discuss treeiy the political situation of Rurope, and that, asin the present case, woven the two Powers are understoo! to be 1 accord, they m anfolo more or jess thelr o:va plans and pe sonal views to each other, It was, theref not improbable that this time had been selected jor the Visiton accoint of the general uneasi- hess which it was undeniable pervaded rope. THE QUESTION OF THE CnURCH, ‘The Czar, no doubt, was in sympatuay with Ger- many ou account now agitating that Empire, because he was confronted with toe same trouvie in portions of his own Empire woere Roman Catholicism was prevalent, For thes reason Mr. Bancroft thinks it bot ant y that at this meeting some line of policy ray be agreed upon by the two raiers in reference to this particular question, bat Mr. ban croit repeats that, in tis view, if this meeting of the two Emperors has any bearing atall upon the political situation of Europe is means the peace of kurope. YEACE OR WAR. Mr. Bancroft regards the professions of peace which jately passed be:ween Francis Joseph and Victor Emmanctel as sincere. He ts satisfied that Austria has reaily abandoned any hope o rezatne ing any of Ker lest territory in the direction of Italy, but looxs toward the Danube. He thinks the policy of Austria ts also to stand aloof trom any complications likely to grow out of religious matters. THE RELIGIOUS TROUBLES IN THE OLD WoRLD. Touching the question of retigious complications | in Europe Mr. Bancroit said that he had been con- vinced while at Berlin that the policy of the Pope waa to strengthen and consviidate the Catholic Church of America, He said he saw plainly the first step in this parpose by the crea- tion of ap American Cardinal, He thought that from this time torward the Churca would figure more prominentiy in the politics of this country. The Oharch was lavoriag under many grievous distractions in rope, and it was probabie that she Way was@repared for !mportant and momen- tous moyements in the fature should ctrcum- stances arise to make them necessary, THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IN PRUSSIA, —_e—_—_—_—- CATHOLIC WOMEN DISPERSED BY ‘THR MILITARY.
