GERMANY'S POLICY.

KAISER AND TSAR. A SYMPATHETIC BRITISH COMMENT. FRIENDSHIP AND PEACE. (di TKLEQBArß—pbess Association—copruiailf.) London, Juno 6. Tho "Pall Mall' Gazette" says the iiiteN view between tlio Tsar unci tho Kaisof proposed to bo held at Abo, in Finland, on Juno 17, will bo the chief diplomatic event of tlio summer. It is natural, says, the "Gazette," that the Kaiser should seek to effaco tlio bad impression and tho soreness created by the recent ultimatum to M. Isvolslty (Russian Foreign Minister) with regard to tho Baifcah dispute. Italy is no longer an effective faetoi in tho Triple Alliance. The growth of Austrian influence ill tho Adriatic, and the development of the Austrian navy, must cessitate a revision of the sitiiatioh.

"Gorman reversion to the friendship < Russia^ , concludes tile journal, "is pruderi &nd inevitable, and Britain may welcome il provided it tends to tho preservation of th political equilibrium and the maintenance < peaoe in Europe." tSar's Tour. VISIT TO FRANCE AND BRITAIN IN JULY. London, June 6. President Fjtlliofed has informed th French' Cabinet that the Tsar will spend ttf days at Cherbourg, at the end of Julj Thence tho,Tsar will proceed to Cowes, Isl of Wight, the headquarters of tlio lloyt Yacht Squadron. ■ ' .
