The Home correspondent of the Melbourne " Age" nays : —

This would certainly rouse Austria to action, bat the terms of tbe treaty jast published will not compel Germany to join the fray, ao that it may ba after all that Bismarck regards the situation from a purely selfish point of view, and la determined to remain "benevolently neutral " until he perceives a safe opportunity for Germany to obtain BOtno aigaal [advantage. Ital? la pledged to support the autonomy of Balgaria, so she wil! doubtless co-operate cordially with Austria m resisting any warlike attempt on the part of the Czir to regain his influanoe ia the Balkan province ; and England will probably bo involved if Russia make another dash at Constantinople.
