Views of an Amtrlan Officer Who Expects
War In Central Enrope.
Special lo the New York World.
Washington, July 8.—A wel 1 known
army officer, who some weeks agoiurniahed
the World correspondent with an interest
ing review of the European situation,
written by an intimate friend, a major in
an Anstrian cavalry regiment, has received
a letter written since the accession of
William 11., giving a graphic account of
the view taken in Austrian military circles
of the chances of a general European war.
The only restriction placed upon the pub
lication of this letter, the text of which is
given below, is that the name of the writer,
lor obvious reasons, should be withheld:
“My Dear Friend: What I feared
liaa come to pasa. Germany’a dearly be
loved Emperor, ‘Unster Fritz,’ as he was
best known among the army and the peo
ple in general, is no more, and in hta place
reigns a second William. What changea
nmy be brought about by the change of
rulers no man can tell t but I fear that the
stormy petrel is hovering low over Central
Europe. The address • the new Emperor
issued to the army and navy on his acces
sion to the throne did not create a favora
ble impression in Ausrria. It bre&thed
too much the spirit of a hot-headed youth,
who had at last found a meins of publicly
expressing sentiments he had long enter
tained, but which he had been obliged to
conceal. Of course you will understand
that I am in no sense criticising the acta
of the Emperor and his ministers of state.
I give you my own impressions and the
gossip of the barracks, and write aa one
friend would speak to another.
“1 cannot help fearing that our forebod
ings are well founded. It is an open secret
in military and political circles that the
new Emperor hates both France and Eng
land, and, although the newspaper* are not
supposed to allude to this, yet they make
continual referenced) the strained rela
tions existing betwfen Germany aud tier
neighbors, and we notice that the press
censor does not severely rebuke tliem.
What »c dread if thrt •*"> Emperor’s
antipathy will n ake him declare war
against France, and that he will be diplo
matic enough to induce Russia to remain
neutral. This, as I sup|K>ee you know,
could not be done unless the Czar saw that
he might profit by it, and the only bribe
that could purchase his neutrality would
be the promise of Germany's support in
enabling him to continue his march to the
gates of Constantinople. Now you know
that we would never consent to any such
arrangement, and that it would practically
mean the rapture of the triple alliance—an
alliance so strong that while it lasts Ger
many, as well as Austria, need have no
fears ot any foe.
“But mure than this. Suppose England
mw Rnssia in full control of Bulgaria and
her troops within easy striking distance of
the objective point, wbat would she then
do? Would she forget that her people
iiave millions of pounds invested in Turk
ish securities, ana that the nominal inde
pendence of Turkey, for which she has
spent much money and the .lies of some
of her best soldiers, is one of the cardinsl
principles of British statesmanship? I
think not. My opinion is that, then, she
must take an active part in diplomatic or
military maneuvers. Then, aa we figure
tbeaitualionout.it would resolve itself
nto something like this; Germany and'
France would be arrayed against each
hero. Russia would be totally neutral
but really waiting the moment when she
could move to the east. Austria would be
under arms ready to defend the autonomy
of Bulgaria and Servia.
“It is difficult tosee just what England
would do in this juncture. But more im
probable things have happened than that
Euglnnd and France should form an
alliance. Italy would be with us; so theie
you have the whole of Europe involved in
a war of gigantic proportions.
“In the cablegrams to your American
newspapers there is much tending to show
that tlie people of Germany, and particu
larly the army, would liail'with joy a dec
laration ot war. This is in a great meas
ure erroneous, as I learn from private let
ters from Germany. Ab for myself I am
free to confess that the urospect of a war,
which I regard as imminent, is not alto
gether distasteful. The same thing is true
in most of the young men of the German
army who have seen little service. But
the old sold’ers, the veterans of the cam
paign of 1866, and of the more recent war
with France, do not long for the terrible
scenes and incidents of war. To them war
will always come too soon. They devoutly
hope if may never come; but in view of
the present state of aflhiri, like prodent
soldiers, they are always girded for the
battle.
“There is no cessation of warlike prepa
rations. Our army is being rapidly
equipped with the new repeating rilie,
which we believe to be superior to that
possessed by any other European power.
Military stores and munitions of war are
being collected at various strategical
points, and if the time cornea when the
Russian ambassador shall demand his pass^
port, lie will find that Austria is ready to
greet his countrymen with something more
potent than the veiled courtesies of diplo
macy.”
TIM CAMPBELL AND THE BURE.
Characteristic Cogtiutluiis on the Recent
Marlhiiroiigh-Hnnicrsley Wedding.
From.the New York World.
Washington, July 6.—Tim Campbell
has returned to bis' Congressional duties
after an absence of ten days in tiie great
metropolis. He was present at the mar
riage of Mrs. Hamersley to the Duke ut
Marlborough, which was so unostenta
tiously performed by Mayor Hewitt, and
which he witnessed in company with
Streaker Carlisle aud Representative Mc-
Millin, of Tennessee.
“That was a sight I shall never forget,"
said Tim, with great enthusiasm. “One of
the handsomest women you ever saw stand
ing up there in the' mayor’s office as
straight as an arrow, with a blush on her
cheeks and a voice a heap steadier than
the mayor’s. You see, the speaker, Mr.
Mc-Miilin and myself dropped in to see
the mayor quite informal like. The may
or, you know, was in Congress once, and
whenever any of us go over to the big city
we run in and tell him how things are go
ing along. After we had talked a little
about things in general, and I had told
him the tmritf bill was auri- lo pass, he ex
plained to ns that the Duke of Marlbor
ough and Mrs. Hamersley were going to
be married in his office in a little while.
“ ‘What a piiv!’ stys I.
“ ‘WhyF says" he.
“ ‘Because,’ says I, ‘there is a beautiful
woman with a lovely fortune a-going out
of the country on the arm of a little Duke
that don’t weigh much over a. hundred,
and here are Korea and acorces of fine
young fellows right in this city, every one
of them ready to go through fire and water
to win just such a bride.’
“ ‘The Mayor laughed.' and just then the
door opened and the bridal parly was an
nounced. The Mayor looked a trifle rat
tled, but he got out his little book and the
service began. The Duke came up just a
bit above the bride’s shoulder, ami though
lie seemed to be a pretty nice little fellow
I couldn’t help thinking to mytei^ ‘Dear,
dear! look at that, nod all the fine, strap
ping young fellows she’s leaving behind
her. Myl but she was dressed handsome,
and looked pa pretty as a peach. The
mayor went along with hia services until
he reached the place where it says, ‘If any
man know aught why these two should
not be joined together, let him speak, or
forever after hold hia peace.’ Then he
coat his eye at me with a sort of twinkle in
it, aa much as to say, ‘Now’s your chance,
Tim; speak up.’
“But ! kept still, and the mayor smiled
at me as though he thought I had lost my
nerve. I tell you it was very trying.
Never in my whole life did I feel so much
like jumping up on a chair and shouting,
‘Mr. Speaker, I object.’ ”
“Is there any truth in the story that you
ofiered Mayor Hewitt $25 to aurrender to
you his prerogative of kissing the bride?”
“Not a word, sir. That’s a New York
campaign lie, and I would he obliged if
you would nail it before it travels any
further. I’m not saying that I wouldn’t
have given the $25, but nobody would
think of trying to bribe the mayor.”
Harold .Skim pule—Lawrence lloytborn.
From Temple Bar.
In Haroid Skimpolc of “Black House,”
Dickens deeply injured the susceptibilities
of his friend Leigh Hunt, whose eccentric-
1 sties he had unmistakably exaggerated in
connecting them with Skimpole. Although
the novelist felt that it was wrong in being
thus tempted to utilize the power lie pos
sessed of reproducing the peculiarities of
his friends and their natural trails of char
acter, he apparently found it irresis
tible. Harold Sktmpoie’s likeness to
that of his prototype was so easily recog.
nized that it led to much remark. Un
fortunately, a.part in the plot was as.
signed to him which no fascinating
foibles or gayeties of speech could redeem
iiuus buiiU mpt. The ztcry h a long cue,
and ao well told by othera that a repetition
of it is unnecessary. Suffice it to say that
Dickon's in ention was not an unkind one.
He erred from thoughtlessness only, and
often expressed his regret that he had
made the character speak too much like
his o'd friend. “Perhapa,” suggests Mr.
Forster, “the only person acquainted with
the original who failed to recognize the
copy waa the original himself, (common
ease;) but good-natured friends in time
told Hunt everything, and painful expla
nations followed. • • • I yet well re
member with what eager earnestness * •
* he strove to set Hunt up again in his
own esteem,” He endeavored partly to
make amends by inviting ami persuading
essay, setting hi* father in u jn«t light, for
All the Year Round. But the harm was
done, and could not be undone, although
the noveliita made alltherepnartion in his
S ower in order to bring alxjut that moat
eairable result. For the character of
Lawrence Boythorn he was similarly in
debted to another friend, Walter Savage
Lardor* Boythorn forms a strong and not
unpleasant contrast to Nkimpole, ao that
the consequences arising from the portray
al were not so disastrous as in the case of
Leigh Hunt; in fact, no objection waa
made, as ludicrous traits were employed
to enrich without impairing an attractive
person in the tale.
Cnrdliml Manning's Residence. I
From the Full Mall Gazette.
Decidedly this is the age of old men. |
Cardinal Manning is cighty-two, and yet
he was equal to a visit to the Irish exhibi
tion at Olympia. His eminence spent
some time in inspecting the newly opened
Irish street, inside the new building, ‘
with its display representing women,s in- :
dustfias. A number of bright Irish girls!
arc engaged ns saleswomen, and weartrish ]
peasant costumes, His eminence also
pjiid special attention to the inspection of
new Irish laces exhibited in the central nv-
nue by the committee for the maintsin-
ance of lace-making in Ireland, and ex
presses a high opinion of the new designs
made at several convents where the lace
schools are in operation. How
few people in London know
the Cardinsl Archbishop’s place, which is
a stone's throw from Vauxhail Bridge-
road. It is an austere and barrack-like
building without. If yon have an appoint
ment with his eminence you ring the bell
ami the door is opened by a butler, who
ushers you through an asrctic hail into a
rtthar grim reception chamber, which
seems to be quite a repository of hundreds
of old theological volumes, covered with
the dust of ages. A bust of the Cardinal
and the crucifixes catch the eye at once,
but before you have had time to look
about you a door opens and the Cardinal
stalks in, tall and erect, arrayed in a flow
ing black robe, with a cardinal's hat of
red silk shaped like s, beretta on his head
A Remarkable Prophecy.
During the war of 1870, Figaro says,
there was published anonymously a
brochure called "A New belter ..1 .luniu-,"
the author of which was M. Alexander
Dumas, Jr., which contained this remarka
ble prophecy concerning the then Crown
Prince of Germany: And when Prince
Fritz shall say, “But I, Lord, have always
loved peace,’ the Lord shall answer him,
saying, “I have declared equally guilty
those who do evil aud those who permit it
to be dor« in their sight. 1 had made thee
handsome and good, not solely that thou
tuigheat make reparation for the paternal
crimes, but that thou might-st prevent
them. Thy ^uoULiccut shall be to die
without having done good.’”

^ Profit From Tlires Cows.
Frota the Camilla Clarion.
If every young min could lie as success
ful as Mr. J. A. Wilson we would advise
the mi to get married. He is milking only
three i ows, and from these cows he sells
enough butter to buy all the necessaries of
his household which he cannot raise, and
the pay wages of his standing wage hands,
oml it does not cost him but very little to
keep his cows. He hss some very fine
ones and does his awn milking.
Tricked by the Old Lady.
Prom the Amerlcus Republican.
We learn that a young man and lady,
living in Dooly, wore engaged, but the
girl’s mother objected to her prospetivo |
son-in-law. Theg made up a plan by
which they expected to evade the old lady i
and elope, The old woman droppen on
the racket, and kept low until the night
of the enterprise, and by gome means kept
the girl out of tne way until she played
her trick. She dressed herself out, took
the stand that the girl was t> fill and
awaited results. The poungfellow and a
companion drove ug. The young chap
jumpen out, threw a shawl over
pirl's head, put her in the buggy, jumjied
in. and away they went. The old lady
scuffled until she got the shawl off and I
then went to work. She shrieked murder!
help t and tore that fellow’s head and face
until he found on} that the old lady was
mistress of the situation, wheu he jumped
from the buggy and lias “gone West." The
old lady made the other chap take her
hack home, and threatened to hare him
arrested for trying to kidnap if he didn’t
heiiavc and promise not to try to steal her
girl again. He made the promise.
Ills Wool Transaction.
From the Kastman Times.
There waa another large wool transac
tion here lost Friday. Messrs. Buchan,
Rozar, Burch, Wilcox, Harrell and Ilerr-
Wan (each haring an interest in the sta
ple) pul 12,608 pounds of clean baled
wool upon the market, and the bid
ding therefore between buyers soon be
came quite spirited. S. Herman &
Rro., of this place, and Mr. 1’. G. Clegg,
of Hawkinsvifle, were the principal bid
ders for tlie wool. The latter gentlemen
was now present, but made his offers by
telegram, nnd they were numerous, eacit
time lierrmail raising his bid a fraction.
The bidding was kept up several hours,
when Mr. C. withdrew from tlie con lest,
and Mr. llerrman bought the large<buld
of wool ut 22-lti cents per pound. This-
is the largest wool sale that has been
made in this section this season, and our
sister city’B buyers are doubtless a little
sore from being “shut out” in the matter.
They cau uctei copo with oar buyer-,
however, as they will doubtless soon learn.
Tlie balk of wool above referred to brought
$2,822, and tlie casli for the same was im
mediately p>id over.
CARLISLE SATISFIED.
He Think* the Progress On tlie Mill* IH11
lias ISeen Good.
Special to the Globe-Democrat.
Wash rnoton, July 12.—Speaker Car-
lise said to-day that the progress which is
being made on the Mills bill is very grati
fying to the friends of that measure. The
wool schedule upon which the House is
now engaged is the only remaining por
tion of the bill which will cause any
lengthy debate. About twenty gentlemen
liavo signified to Mr. Carlisle their inten
tion of making speeches on the subject of
wool. Taking this into consideration the
Speaker says that in hisopiuionthe debate
will be closed and a vote taken in ten or
twelve days.
As to tho course which tlie Senate will
pursue when the tariff bill reaches that
body, Mr. Carlisle ssy» he has no definite
information. He thinks, however, that
thswholc subject will finally get into con
ference. In that stage there will he some
concessions by both sides, but the Demo
crat* will not make any material conces
sions. They will insi.t, says Mr. Carlisle,
that the bill remain substantially as it
comes from tlie House. What the final
outcome would be he could not and would
not undertake toaay.
