GERMAN DEMOCRACY.
There are indications that Germany will pull out of the war a- new democratic ordering of affairs, and will make strenuous efforts to shake off once for a-11 the yoke of Prussian militarism, according to the Amsterdam correspondent of a London daily. Significant admissions have lately been allowed to creep through the censor's mesh, to the effect that the militarist spirit with, which Germany is credited has had a hardening effect on her enemies, and has urged them to declarations to fight to a finish! Some conception of what this view of German tendencies may have on the peace negotiations, with, which. Germany is thought to be increasingly occupied, hae entered the general intelligence, and is even to be seen influencing official action to some extent. There is every indication' that a milder regime will follow the, Reichstag outburst on the subject of military interference with civilians, and the organisation 'of fit male subjects up to the age of 65 is to be well larded with hints and suggestions thai, the much-talkedrof new orientation is not so far off a£ the scepfics are inclined to believe.
