THE WAR CLOUD IN EUROPE. ee british Cabinet Explanation of the Inception | of the Crisis and Its Present Avoidance. The Franco-German Causes of Dispute Likely to Recur. Russian Conservatism in Aid of England's Policy of Non-Intervention. Lonpow, May 31, 1875, {p the House of Lords this eveuing Earl Russell | Qskead that the correspondence between Great | Britain and the Continental Powers arising out of the recent war clarm be laid beiore the house, THE CABINET REPLY. Tne Earl of Derby, Minister of State for the For. eign Depariment, replied that he sympathized with the curiosity of tnose who had watched the tourse of foreign affairs during the last few weeks. The government desired to conceal nothing tt had done, but it would be impossible to give a fair ac- rount without largely using confidential commu- Bicatious relating to the policy and opinions of other governments, who would object to such disclosure. ‘The publication of these communications would prevent English Biplomatists irom receiving information in the forure, and to submit a mutilated correspondence might mislead the House. The causes of dispute were liable to recur; therefore 1% was not desira- Die in the interests of peace to give publicity to the details of the controversy, Lord Derby then proceeded to stare that per- sons highest in authority in Beriin of late openly declared that the French army bad become a gource of danger to Germany, because its magnl- tude showed a determination on the part of France to renew the war; that Germany, in selt- feience, might feel impelled to strike the frst plow to secure peace, and that it was necessary that the French army should be constderabily re- duced, ‘This language, repeated by German representa- ives bere and elsewhere, created extreme un- paginess in France. . The French government immediately disclaimea ali warlike intentions. Lord Derby satd he ac- cepted this declaration as entirely sincere, He believed no statesman in France contemplated a renewal of whe war. France, after her humilia- tions, naturally desired to have an army which would give herthe influence to which she con- Hdered herself entitled. One of the diticulties was that the French were unabie to conceive tnat German appretensions were genuine, They re- parded the representations made by Germany as 8 pretext for a fresh war. It seemed to Her Majesty's government that there was a mutual misonderstanding which might lead to grave consequences, for Germany’s next step might have beem @ formal request for France to discontinue her armament, while France, on the other band, would probably ac- celerate It, and thereby confirm the suspicions of Germany. The existence of this mutual distrust afforded a good opportunity to offer the friendly offices of England. RUSSIA SUPPORTS TEE QUEEN. The Russian government saw things in the same ght, ana the vistt of the Emperor Alexander to Berlin supplied tae means of supporting Eng- ‘and’s representations, FATIONAL DULY WITHOUT SACRIFICE OR ISOLATION, Lord Derby concluded by declaring that Bag. Jand bad done her duly without sacrifices, past. present or prospective. Ste had entered into no engagements and made no pledges; but her policy of non-intervention oid not mean isolation or in- Gifference to the peace of Europe.

OPINIONS OF THE FRIENDS OF THE PRESIDENT— HIS RENOMINATION THOUGHT TO BE SE- CURED—RIVAL ASPIRANTS DEMORALIZED. WASHINGTON, May 31, 1875, The third term friends of the President here, chief among whom is Boss Shephera, are ex- tremely jubilant over the letter on that subject which appeared this morning. It seems that the President wrote the letter aud gave it out for puducation without consultation with any member of his Cabinet. He stated tnis morpivg that he had ior sume time been await ing an opportunity to say what he bas said about the third term, but none had rresented irself until tne action of the Pennaylvanta Republican | | Convention, The letter is intended as @ rebuke to that Convention, and Grant’s friends think it makes bim even with tue auti-third term party in | Pennsylvania, They also claim that it will make him strong before the people and eventually si cure him the nomination by the National Repubdll- can Convention for a third term. Boss Shepherd says Grant is eure to be the nomi- Mee of the party; thas he will start. with the nd that he wit get enough States North and West without Pennsylvania to give him a majority in the Couvention. It seems to be generally understood by Grant’s friends | | that he will accept a nomination if it is offered, | were and his letter joreshadows this. ‘The impression ts that this letter will go far | toward cemoralizing Hlaine, Bristow, Morton, Conkling and all the rival aspirants for the repub- | cam nomination.
