COUNT YON BULOW'S SPEECH.

GERMANT'S FOREIGN RELATIONS AN ANGLO-GERMAN ENTENTE. BERLIN, January 21. In the coarse of nic speech in the Reichstag, in the debate upon the Imperial : interest*, Count ran Bulow stated that the Allies -were co-operating loyally in Venezuela. The blockade would probably be raised the moment the negotiations at Washington had borne a satisfactory result. The Anglo-German co-operation in Venezuela had been limited beforehand to securing from an unwilling creditor satisfaction for identical injury done to British and German subject*. Gtoromeniing on the Dardanelles incident:, he said that Germany's failure to support Great Britain did not imply hostility, but wn£ in accord with the traditional policy of the Fatherland and Iher geographical position, which imposed a peaceful and impartial neutrality. The attitude of British newspapers towards Germany was duo to the Continental Press's attacks on the British policy in South Africa. Germany's policy hod brai shaped in narmony vr&h. her permanent interests. Horace's line: -"Quioquid delirant reges plectuntur Achivi" (the Greeks suffer for whatever, folly their Kings commit), was nowaday* reversed. It was the people who did the mischief, and th* rulers who smarted. He rejoices that the relations between Britain and Germany remained unchanged, sad would continue to follow on the old tried and discreet friendly linee, m they wa» impelled by many important in t*rests~to agree in peace and friendship.
