The other Miss Do Foe ts a teacher of English in France, and during the chief part of the winter has paid her sister’s rent of tour shillings a week, butis now compelled Ly want of means to discontinue this assistance, and in consequence of tailing health and advancing’ years will botore long be obliged to abandon her precarious employment altogether, Their brother, who bas a large family, is upuble to help them, except to avery inadequate extent, aud they have no other near relations, ‘Their case, which is a most deserving ove, has been thoroughly ‘investigated, and is bemg temporarily assisted by this committee of the Charity Organization Society, and in order to provide permanently tor them the committee propose tu expend the monoy now col- fected in the purchase of an unnuity which will enable them to live in tolerable comiort tor the rest of their lives and will at the sammy time serve asa tribute of respect to their distinguished ancestor.

De Foe’s fame as the writer of the “Tistory of the Plague” una other popular works, his services in pro- moting the union between England and Scotland, and his writings in defence of civii and retigious liberty his sufferings in the cause, would wione entitle poor women to public charity; but as the author ‘of imnocent than apy other work in the language their clam on national sympathy 13 of no ordinary kind, A lew ificnds bave already promised subscriptions, Contributions to @ Sisters Ye Foe Annuity Fund’? | should be sent to the Lambeth oilice of the Charity Organization Society, Archbishop Sumuer's Schools, 5.

They wei THE CATHOLIC PROTECTORY. Mr. H. L. Hoguet, President of the New York Catholic Protectory, has addressed a circular letter to the Comptroller, im response to his dated March 20, relative to the expenditures of charitable institutions, in which he reviews the mistory and mission of the Protectory, and furnishes statistics to show that its expenses compare favorably in point of economy with those of other institutions of a@ like character, Mr, Hoguet assigns severnl causes for the increase of the Protectory expenses, prominent among which are tho followin; ‘The long-continued depres- sion tn trade and the consequent widespread destitu- tion which has compelled many families to seek public relief; the recent Ureaking-up of the County Aliesbouse on Randall’s Is!and and the transfer of 1ts inmates to private charitable institutions; the large number of children committed to the Protectory under the Com- pulsory Education act, aud also tho caring for the children rescued trom cruel parents by the Society tor the Prevontion of Cruelty to Children, During the past year 235 children have been pro- vided with homes through the agency of the Provec- ad the manager, Mr. Hoguet, cluims to have lost sight of the neceusity for diligence tn pro- g, through private charity, for a Proportion of xpenses O! the institution. Reference.so the an- ports to the Legi and Common Council of the city of New York shows that in the fourteen re of the. Protectory’s existence over $1,000,000 ave been procured from sources other than the pub- ly $75,000, or over eighteen per cent of the total expenses bs the imstitution, have been provided from private charity. ‘The circular contains a comparative table of admis- sions into und discharges from the three juvenile re- formatory institutions of the county lor the past two years, by which tt appears that there were udmitted into the New York House of Refuge 1,659 persons; into the Now York Juvenile Asylum, 1,435 persons, and into the Catholic Protectory, 2,720 persons. Ot this number 1,463 were indentured and discharged to frionas trom the House of Reluge, 1,208 trom the Juvenile Asylum, and 2,326 from the Catholic Protec- tory. ST.

BERGH'’S HORSE CAR ORUSADE. HE GAINS A VICTORY OVER THE BLEECKER STREET RAILROAD COMPANY. President Bergh, of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, again conned his armor in the Court.of Special Sessions yesterday in a second tilt with the Biceckor Street Railroad Company, the casus belli being the noblo horse. In the first encounter, which took placo in the same court a few days previous, the company came out victorious, but yesterday Mr, Bergh, after a long {ought battle, unhorsed his antagonist and damaged bim to the ox- tent of a $25 fine. The theoretical culprit was Frank Watson, one of the company’s drivers, who stood charged with cruelty to animals in compelling a single horse to pull a 2,800 pound car containing thirty-three Passengers, weighing on an avorage 125 pounds each and in the aggregate 7,000 pounds, ‘ne prisoner pleaded not guilty, and Mr. Bergh put Officer Smart, of his society, on the stand, who testilled that the horse appeared very much exhausted. The driver was urging him forward with a whip. Dr, Joseph Coleman, called as a witness by the pros- ecution, was asked by Mr. Bergh bis professional opin- jon as to the eflect on. the horse in question in being obliged to pull the car and the loud mentioncd the length of the route, a distance of seven miles, around thirteen curves and up soveral hills, at a grade of one foot in every ton. The witness thought that the effect must anquestionably be vory cxluusting to the ani- mal. For the defence it was claimed that the driver did not have or use a whip on the occasion in question, and George Terry, suporintendent of the railroad company’s stubles was culled to show the geucral treatment of e company’s horses. Witness stated that ho was skilled in the treatment of horses, having had four- teen years’ experience; he was accustomed to examine all the company’s horses; the animal referred to was up unosually strong one and gound in every partic- ular; the company made their horses do only two trips u day, each occupying one bour and forty min- utea; atthe end of the first trip the animals were watered and ted and allowed to rest tor two hours; car horses lasted generally about four years. Mr. sbarp, President of the Bleecker Strect Railroad, next took tho stand, and testified that the company’s one horse cars required only ono-third the motive power necessary tor a two-horse car. Witness ciaimed labe able to push any of bis cars any distance, In- deed, vb one occasion, as a test, he pushed ior a con- sluerable distance with ope band a car containing twenty-seven passengers, He would have pushed forty-seven passengers along, but there were no more around, and this was up # grade of cight inches to every 100 foet, After a long summing up by Mr. Bergh on one side aud the company’s counsel on tho other, the Court found the prisoner guilty and sentenced him to pay a tine of $25, $I.

But the Australian govern ment seem: to bave thought differently, and the consequence has been that oa very. voluminous correspondence has passed back and forth, The Vico President ot the line said bo was not aware that the government bad issued its ulumatum, Ifso he had not been informed of the fact. The subsidy is o very considerable sum, amounting anvually to £70,000 sterling ($350,000, goid), Even if the subsidy has not been rescinded the nego- tations leave the company in this attitude—either it must continue to run five steamers, with business for three only, in order to get the subsidy, or doing with- out the subsidy if must try to lessen expenditares by running only three steamers, In connection with the fall in coal stocks yesterday and, indeed, since the recent mocting of the Delaware and Hudson Company’s stockholders, various rumors rather ipjurious to the credit of the corporation havo veen put in circulation, Endeavoring to trace these yesterday a Heap reporter called on, Mr. Olyphant, the Assistant President of the company.

BOKER, MIN ISTER TO RUSSIA. [From the Philadelphia Press, May 12; : “Hon. George H, Boker, United States Minister to the Court of Russia, kindly acccorded an interview yes terday to a representative of Press, the subject discussed being ihe present state of Europe, The long residence of Mr. Boker abroad, his intimate tamiliarity with the leading statesmen of the Old World, bis ac- quaintance with the causes which result in the diplo matic moves on the European chess board and ni recent presence in the theatre so soon to be the scem of the most portentous events, all combine to rende: his views deeply interesting atthe present time. Tha Europe is on the verge of a struggle, the most terrific in history, ts, in brief, the conclusion to which one 1 lorced after hearing @ critical survey of the situation In response to the writer’s request for bis opinion as & the probable duration of the war as it at present exist Mr Russia will carry everything before her, providin, Turkey does not find an ally or alli opinion of a distinguished officer in the Turkish ser vice as to that. bo condition to resist the advance of an army directed in accordance with the scientific principies of modern yes ud that if unassisted by any otber nation urkey within six weeks,’? Boker said:. do not think it will last long Thave th He says that the Turkish forces are is il lod the Russian army in Constantinople The ollicer to whom Mr. Boker referred, whose Rame is not given for obvious reasons, bus a world wido reputation, and his views on the subject are those of an authority whose reliability cannot be gain. said, Mr, Boker’s opinions, given in the conversa tion which toilo on, ustily the following remarks on the present struggic:—Tho aim of Russia was pi marily the amelioration of the condition of the Christiana under the rule of the Sublime Porte, Thit ‘was tbe object of the war atthe beginning; what will be the ultimate end remains for the iuture to disclose. But as to Russia accomplishing her ambition of becoming permanent mistress of Constantinople, that is another question. To this neither Austria nor Germany would submit, for the reason that it practi cally closes the free navigation of the Danube to the outer world, Without the freedom of the Bosphorus aud the Durdanelies the commerce of the Danube it @ozod except to the Bluck Sea, 1t is, however, nol improbable that a mutual understanding bas been ar. rived at between Russia and Germany, and this sur. miso is contirmed by certain events which transpiro¢ before the Russian declaration of war, The German Chancellor has nevor riven up the idea of crushing France. Tho wonderful recuperation of the French nation after the peace of Verauilies, the rapid reor- ganization of tho army and the certainty that the struggle would be ronewed at some future day—all thego have been taken into consideration ut Berlin, Germany to-day 1s one vast camp; itis stronger than ever before, and better fitted for war; but this has 3 been accomplished at the cost of prosperity. While France is. growing rich German; 18 becoming poor by reason of the vast arm! the expenso of which is draining the wealth of the nation to its dregs. This sort of thing cannot go on forovor, and the German Chancellor soes this as plainly as any- body else. ‘ho army is there foran object, and shat object is to so thoroughly crush Franco that all ideas of revenge by ‘le grand nation’? will be completely out ofthe question for a generation or two, Germany could not carry out this plan bad Russia been at peaco, for the Emperor Alexander, when the subject wag broached to him, would not hear of it, And it is o fuctuhat butior his tirmness and decision the Ger- mans would have declared wur long ago. Hence, in order to effectually dispose of Russia, Germany was ovliged to wait unttl that Power became involveu with Turkey, and to effect this the German Ambassador spared no pains in urging upen the Russians the fact that Germany would uot imterfere with any programme the Czar would undertake to carry out. But so thor. oughly was the reason for this understood at the Rus: slun Court, that when on one occasion the German Ambassador was speaking to the Emperor on the sub. ject, nis Imperial Mujesty turned his back and retusod to hear any more. But another most impor- tant factor—two others, indced—must’ be taken into consideration. The readers of the Press have beou made familiar with the excitement and alarm which prevailin England. 1t is urged by, the Mberals that the conservative government are permitting the coun- try to repeat 1s experience uuder Palmerston—“te drift into war.’? The latter purase, which is so lamil- jur to everybody who is at all acquainted with English politics, ‘exactly expresses Engiand’s danger, well known to all newspaper ders that England’s aversion to Russia arises irom the real or fancivd gers to which Muscovite success {n Turkey wonld ex- pose British Iodia. But it is not kuown, except to those in possession of dipiomatic secrets, that on a former occasion, when Russia contem- plated an attack on ‘Turkey, the goverament ot the, Czur, im order to quict the appre- beosions of the British Cabinet, suggested that if England felt any doubts us to Ras: sincerity in declaring that she had no sinister designs in India, the British could take possession of Egypt, thereby securing to themselves the much coveted absolute control, of the Suez Cunal. It need scarcely be suid that if ‘this arrangement has not been carried inte eifect It bas not beeu forgotten by British statesr-en, and that they will not be slow to act upon it uid Occasion seem to justify them. Now that Russia doca threaten British communication with India, and thus as tho English believe, imperil their interests, England cannot long remain un impassive spectator. It is, no doubt, this uncertainty as to the action of the latter Power which prevents Germany acting at once against France. For, in order to preserve the balunce of power in Europe, Engiaud and Austria could not pow consist- ently stand by and sce France crushed by her mighty foe without striking a blow in ber defence. And this action would not be entirely disinterested, for neither of them would be sure, France once hopelessly beaten, which of them would next.icel the iron heel of the tremendous military power of this most despotic raler of Europe. It is tmpossivle to tell what turn events may take in the next tow days. If, happily, the war can be confined to Ri and Turkey the dan- ger will be over—ior the present. But once lot Ger- many give the signal for another march on Paris and all Europe will vlaze with a conflict so mighty that empires must be obliterated before peace shall reign again; the long-expected European crisis has arrived und tbe nations of the Old World stand aghast at the spectacic in which they may so soon be called upon to play a part for life or death.
