The following extract from a letter i Saturday Regarded as a Red-
written by Abbe Robin, chaplain in the j _
French army in America, and bearing I Aretter Uay,
date “Camp of Phillipaburg, August 4,
81," a few weeks after his arrival in this j BAY STREET AGAIN POPULATED
country, is very suggestive. This letter

Berlin, 'August 18.—Emperor William
lunched at the headquarters of the First
Infantry Guards and ma ie another energetic
speech in response to a toast to his health,
proposed by Col. Plissen. Although the
affair was strictly private it has transpired
that the Emperor's remarks were mainly a
repetition of his speech at Frankfort. lie
said that Germany would keep wbat she had
gained, and also expressed his convinction
that the army was able to meet all comers.
The account says the Emperor, in giving
toast to the regiment, referred
the training he, himself,
received in the ranks and to the services
which the regiment had rendered the coun
try in cultivating old Ilus.-inn traditions at
an example to the army. The langusge of
Emperor William, although containing no
immediate menace, is not to be attributed to
bis habit of expressing himself bluntly. His
speech at Frankfort was premeditated, if not
verbally prepared.
BCIILK81VIQ-IIOL8TEIN.
The Emperor’s ire had been excited by the
Russian government’s permitting or inciting
the press to raise the Schleswig-Holstein
question, with an additional contention that
the Cur, as the representative of the house
ol Uelstein-Go llroop, c.nims special rights
to support the claims of Denmark. In a
semiofficial communication the Cologne
Gazette uys: “Schleswig-Holstein can only
lie separated from Germany by war with
Russia and France as the attacking nations.
We take note that from Russian diplomatic
sources it is clearly announced, in the event
of a successful campaign, that Denmark
would share in the booty and take part in
I the conflict”
The North German Gazette also complain
that the statement regarding the claims of
Denmark shooM tir.t appear in the Nnnl, a
paper which is at the disposal of the Russian
government in the direction of the question
wh ch the officials of the Russian foreign
officers are engaged. The tone of the semi
official press, on this occasion, does not
fully express the nnger felt in the high
est circles towards the wanton revival
of a buried question. The Emperor’s allu
sions to the achievements of Prince Freder
ick Charles pointe-l to more than his French

The press concurs in regretting the futil
ity of the Petcrhaf and Copenhagen visit
’tssys that within four weeks a ter the in
smew between the Czar and Emperor WU
ism, the tension of the situation threatens
iurope more than ever.
