In the Reichstag yesterday, in presenting the Bill for an increase in the German Army, Herr Yon Burchard, the Imperial Treasurer, stated that, although there was no immediate danger of war, the want of control exhibited by a large proportion of the French people prevented Germany from living in peace and contentment, and he declared that an increase in the army was necessary. Count Yon Moltke, in discussing the Army Bill, declared than an alliance with France, which would ensure the maintenance of European peace, was impossible while France demanded the surrender of the provinces, which Germany would never renounce. He disclaimed any idea of conquest, but declared that Germany would keep those provinces which she already possessed.
