All these questions aro asked and nobody seems eqnnl to tho task ol answering them. Tho wholo thing is in a mist. Germans and French? men are, alike, '.obfuscated," and even the sportsmen are at a loss whether to be or not. Do, Mr. London Times, throw a little mom light ou the question, and relieve us suffering mortals on this side of the big water! But seriously, wo aro disposed to re? gard tho proposed treaty as au admira? ble piece of diplomacy, indeed wonderful, and cannot seo how Bismarck mado up his mind to reject it. It waa a godd thing for Franco and a good thing for PruBsia. Both gained aud neither lost anything. Franco rectified her bound? aries and Prussia hold on to her con? quests, whioh woro always in danger of being wrested from her. And thoy wore in a position to preserve the integrity of the treaty. True, oilier European nations would have objected, perhaps the strongest of them, but what could they have done? Absolutely nothing but raise a row and got a whipping, which would have left them worse off instead of better and tho treaty still in force. France and Prussia, armed as they are, would havo paralyzed all opposition. The arrangement would have stopped the terriblo war now brewing, saved a half million lives aud many millions of treasure, besides tho total loss of pres? tige by one or tho other of tho bellige? rents, should the war go on. Thoroforc, we say thc treaty was a good thing, and if it has been defeated, so much the worse for Europe. [Savannah. Republic<in. ANTI-NAPOLEON*.-The ll 'arid thus re? ports the Bcutimeuts of a resident French? man, who was ouco the friend of Marc Caussidiere: "Ah, ma dear Bair, you know ze apho? risme-quem deus vuh perder?-eh? That is it. The gods have made hcem-heem, this Imperial cauaille-what you say, dog!-have made him mad. Eef ho was not mad, do you teenk ho sall lot dem seeng Le Marseillaise? Ah, bah! It is bee's requiem 1" NAPOLEON FOILED.-Tho London Times, of the 24th, argues from data that the marvellous rapidity with whicli the Prussians hud rallied, and thc celerity of their concentrations upon the Rhine at the critical points, have do feated Napoleou's plans for tho conquesl of the Rhino" Provinces and tho disinte? gration of tho German States. It say: that the plau upon which Napoleon pro posed to wage tho conflict was by rapii movements to hurl the various corp: d'armee which h id concentrated at tin camp of Chalous iuto Ceutral Germany thus dividing the North and Soutl German States through their very centre The wonderful rapidity of the Prussian: ia covering their exposed points, ha: foiled this manoeuvre. Prussia now ha: a powerful army arrayed upon tlx Rhine, between Mnyenco and Gologue with a powerful force occupying UK Rhino fortress. She also has a stron| force in Southern Germany to repe assault upon that quarter. BELGIUM.-The cable despatches hav lately directed considerable attcutioi towards Belgium, aud thc importauce a the preservation of her neutrality iu th cxistiug struggle between France nm Prussia. The history ot' Belgium, as ai independent State, dates from 18110, n which time it was separated from th Kingdom of the Netherlands. Englum is one of the nations which has guaran teed Belgium independence, and th royal family of Belgium is couuectt with that of Great Britain. Leopold of Suxo-Ooburg, who accepted th crown in 1831, holds the balance betwee France and Germany, while his rob tiouship to England, as widower of th Princess Charlotte, was enough to ii sure his independence of coutiucnti intrigues, yet not to implicate him to deeply with British politics. In lii'? ho married tho Princess Louise, duughh of Louis Philippo, hy whom ho ba three children, the first of whom. Lei poid, is now the King. The relatioi ship of tho family with the Englb court is peculiarly intimate, owing 1 the first marriage of tho late King wi I Princess Charlotte, aud his rulatibushi to Prince Albert und Victoria, of who he is thu uncle, her mother, the Duche of Kout, being his sister. We month these facts as explanatory of the lutero which is felt in England that Belgiui which was ouco appropriated by tl French republic and absorbed by tl first empire, shall bc kept intact fro French invasion. The present sovereign nf Belgium highly spoken of by fhe liberal press England. So mild and equal has bo the sway of the Government, that if ev there was a party there desirous of n .Sorption iu a large State, it is believed havo long si nco ceased to exist. Ev edncuted Frenchmen aro accustomed look upon Belgium, not only as a rein in time of trouble, but as a model constitut ional aud municipal govornmc of true liberty and equality, of udmiu trativo probity, of honor, good faith a simpla diguity in the sovereigns, of m istcrial capacity and popular good sen in short, as an example and eneourn] meut to all its neighbors. Conscien thought, opinion, whether expressed writing or embodied in associations, hi enjoyed absolute immunity within til own domain. In a country where I groat majority aro Roman Catholics, libernl government haB held office for twelve yenra, and in a lato election cleri? cals aud ultra liberals wero found Bide by sido. It is to be boped that a nation noted for the harmonious union of ordci and freedom, for its prosperous mer ohants aud thriving artisans and agri? culturists, will not soon becomo tho scone of war. A DISTINGUISHED FnENcn OFFICEI:. Tho Army and Navy.Journal thus spenkf of General Trochn, a Freuch officer "As Von Moltko was hardly known tr readers out of Prussia anterior to UK splendid campaign which ended at Sa dowa, the man to whoso braiu will be diu whatever of successful strategy ebal characterize the French arms in tho com ing war, is as yet unnamed. Gen. Loni: Jules Trochu is to-day undeniably th? best soldier of Franco. Ho is now fifty five years of age. A graduate of tb Staff School of St. Cyr, he was mad lieutenant in 1840, and promoted to i captaincy in 1843. His first staff servie was with that fine soldier, Bugeaud, ii Algeria. Chef d'escadron and major ii 1846, and lioutenant-oolonel in 1853, hi first European service was in the Italia: campaign. At tho commencement o tho Crimean war ho was made chief c tho general staff, and by referenco t Kinglako's History it will bo seen that i all conferences with Lord Raglan,Trochn rather than St. Arnaud or Canroberl was spokesman on tho part of France Throughout tho campaigu, having bee rando general of brigade in 1854, ho o( copied this position of > confidential sta officer of tho commander-in-chief, a oflico analogous to that of Geneiseuau ut der Blucher, given in just recognition c his military ability and skill. lu 18G ho reached bis grave of general of div sion. Two years after ho was charge with tho preparation of a pinn to ro-oi gauize the army. Instead of, as has bee suggested, lucking tho imperial cou! deuce, ho has it iu the most flatterie degree. His essay upon organizatiot %*L>A mice Francaise, "published iu 180' ran through ten editions. Trochu known to have auticiputed the event of war with Prussia.

Shun tho war survive its first battle a fortuigl and promise, as seems very likely, to 1 a long one, Trocbu's name may chance appear at the head of the French armies ENGLAND AND TUE WAR IN EUROPE. RUSSIA AND THE UNITED STATES TI POWERS OF THE FUTURE.-lu urging th every effort should be mndo for the mai tenauce of penco, wo are moved morel moral considerations than by those traditional Europeau policy. We m say at once that wo care very little abo tho balance of power, which, within t last two or three years, has significant disappeared from tho preamble to t mutiny act. A war between Franco a Prussia would bc a war for the left bal of tho Rhiue, aud would ho doubt fought out until the capacity of the o to conquer or of the other to defend tl debatable land was fully decided. T military result of such' a war wot affect us but. little. Tho time hus pass when it could matter to England whet! any Western power possessed a f square miles more or less, or tho co maud of this or that fortress. Siuco t last settlement of Europe, States hr como to maturity in thc world whi threaten to dwarf the ordinary moral) of the European system. Russia and I United States uro the powers which I next generation will look upon as t most formidable. Moreover, tho int eats ami atteution of England ure chit concerned with her owu growing ec nies, and with tho vast populations Asia. The result of a Frauco-Prnssi war is of little moment to us political but wo havo an interest, iu common w the whole of Europe, that tho two m advanced nations of thecontincnt sho uot plunge iuto a contest, tho effect which may bu to divide thom for a ge ratiou by un enduring hatred. How nu tho real strength of civilization may 1 by such a convulsion, it is impossibli foretell. We eau only be certain t tho importance of Western Europe, principal field of human progress, will diminished, perhaps permanently, I fratricidal strife.-London Times. Last Thursday night, Dr. J.
