Tun a..—lgerabs, IL Sla....—.lll4rims. S. TIMOOSMOW—IIanits. fIL, Wm- Altareem a. Na. LONDON, MONDAY, WI UAZY 21. "Asa we to have peace, or war?" This is the one question which, at this moment, is asked by every MO of his neighbour, throughout England. It is a question put, not so much in the hope of receiving e distinct and trustworthy answer, as of asoertaking the inclinations of those to whom it is addressed. So tar as pretty exteca re observation and isquiry can enable us to speak we should say that eabody wishes the war to confines if peace is to bo had ea terms that ensure results adequate to the efforts which have been made, bat that there exists everywhere a lurking suspicion of the geod faith both of Bugle and of Austria. It is deeirable that this should be universally known, for the continental journals in the interests of these two Powers, are labouring indefatigably to spread the belief that a wayward, or interested, desire on the part of Eng land to prolong the war, is the only obstacle to the immediate termination of hostilities. The Imputation is as fakes as it is injurious. England has no with to me the war peolooged tam day beyond what is abso lutely necessary ; bat England does set iateed to allow itself to be esti:ogled in negotiations if they are meant only to gain time for the enemy, or to be made the dupe of a vague and equivocal treaty of peace. The actual position of affairs may be inferred with tolerable certainty from Count BuoL's despatch to Count VALENTINE ESTERBAZT. In that document the Mutt inn proposals are described us nothing more than a full and precise development of the four principles already accepted by Russia. Count Bum. states that these proposals will acquire, from the fact of their acceptance by the belligerent Powers, "a Table tantamount to preliminaries of peace." He adds : "The signature of these prelimi naries would be immediately followed by a general armistice and definitive negotiations." Rosa* we are assured, has accepted them. It is to be presumed that she has done so on the strength of Coast Buor.'s promise, that "if, es we hope, ear proposi tions meet with a favourable reception, we shall Joss no time in warmly nosommeading them to the acceptance of the Courts of Paris and Leedom." Bat if there be truth in a previous statement in Count BowL's despatch, this submission of the propositions for the approbation of the Courts of Paris and Ludon is amen matter of form. The Count says," His He nan deigned to entreat to me the duty at mounding the Cabinets of Paris and London on this subject. But while we found there most firmly resolved sot to initiate any path overtures, we nevertheless have, to our great satisfaction, found in these Waste a disposition such as to inspire us with the hope that they will not refuse to examine and accept conditions of a nature to present all the gua.-antses regalia far • serious and lasting peace, and to adjust malefic torily the question that gave rise to the war." This appears to us as positive an assertion us is oompedble with the vague and guarded language of European diplomacy, that Austria bus ascertained the willing ness of the French and English Governorate to u ses the proposals as " tantamount to preliminaries of peace," if Russia accepts them first. If Coast Bum. has really been authorised to make such a statemeet, the proposals are now not merely " bassi of negotiation'," but " preliminaries of peace; " sad the conclosioa of a peace can only be prevented by unequivocal indicatiou of insincerity on the part of Russia in her acceptance of them. Bat Zeeland and France will be warraated in in ferries that Russia has accepted the proposal' basin sorely and with a " mental reservatioa " or " derriere pewit," if that Power shows a disposition, by raising cavils upon the meaning of the torero of pesos, to protract the negotiations. If there is to be a peace it must be enclarkd without delay. The prolongs ties of uncertainty as to whether we en to have pease or war will affect moat injuriously the laborers of Fusee and England. It is only necessary to look at the uncertainty which pervades the produce markets of both ceastrise to be conaseed GIGO& At this monient no one can coojecture what is or will he the vales of the raw materials employed in their great staple mensfas tares ; what will be the price to be paid for mosey somemodadoo by their merchants and esanafestarere in the immediate gave. The productive industry of Frame and England is paralysed by that uncertainty whisk eat caly be terminated by at immediate pears or a speedy rupture of negotiations; end so abatement can be made in the war expeoditur• of either country until it is certain that the war is at an sad. If Ramie is skean, there need be so delay la the negotiations about to comma *; bat already the owns of Russia, in the continental press, are begiankg to suggest queetioce which, if allowed to be raised, may afford a pretext for interminable preemie. It is asked whether Nicobar., can with propriety be milled a military marine arsenal on the Black Bea; and whether a better frostier Ike between Moldavia and Bessarabia might not be traced then that which is described in the Marisa proposals. Busk must be peremptorily held to its acceptance "per et ample" of the proposals as "tantamosat to preliminaries of paste;" not allowed to explain them away in a " Dos mural cease;" and held to submeibe the bead with out loss of time. With a view to the necessity et iseamilistely IMF deding pesos or at woe beseldeg of segolithme. doubts are felt and uprooted as te the expeitieney of France sod England somesatiag to as armistice.

EXPRESS FROM PARIS. (7101 t OVR PARIS, SUNDAY Immo. I am sorry to say that (with the exception of the Press* and the Eisele) the French journals assume a tone on the subject of the peace propositions wLialt is far from being friendly or even decent towards 'Eng land. One would care little for the avowed hostility of the fseionist organ, the AssamWe Nationals, but it is really serials to find the Constaidionnn talking of an armistice being as good signed, and arguing that England is sin lirwour bound" by the Austrian ultimatum, when it is notorious that, foe reasons yet to be 'spiv:Wed, many conditions stipulated foe by Lord Clarendon as sits gad ROM were not comprised in the pr' positions sent to Bt. Peters burg by Count Bent. "In our opinion," says the Cbonitstionaml, "no incident can arise to prevent the Austrian ultimatum being regarded by all par. ties interested as possessing the definitive character of preliminaries of penes. And although those pre liminaries may not at this moment be signed, we are masking that acme of the belligerent powers can think of withdrawing from the obligations of an honourable engagement." How it happens that England can have approved of the presentation by Austria, as an ultimatum, of propositions from which essential conditions were left out—is, I must confess, difficult to explain, with out more information than is yet in possession of the public. The present aspect of affairs looks very much as if we had been outwitted by the Austrian diplomatists. It may, however, turn out that they have only outwitted themselves. It is important to mention that, awarding to general opinion in the' , highest official canes here, the French Government has resolved to comely& a pesos, and to make small account of the conditions which in England are can , gnawed essential to be introduced under the head of the Fifth Prevention. This is the situation which must be calmly considered and dealt with.

The Coroner baying briefly recapitulated the evidence gives on the previous occasion, said—l informed you that I had made =application to the Home Secretary by letter to have the prisoner brought here, and also that I received as answer to that letter. On returning to my dace, however, I found a communication from Sir O. Grey, in comequence _ _ of which I attended at the Home Office, and I have every reams to believe that there will be so difficulty is the least in having the prisoner produced before you ow Wednesday morning next at ten o'clock. There appears tome legal objection to his being must to-day, and I t'serefore think that the best amuse we as adopt is to adjourn the inquiry again until Widowed', next.

On Saturday evening a meeting of the committee et thie iastitatioa wee held at the comtaiseiootre room, Edward -street, liampetead•road ; Faancis HaLLax, E.q , J.P is the choir. The Sac aaaaaa stated that he had received 471. from the directors et the poor of the parishes, befog the amulet of rents 'Asia( oat of the Feeler's Field Estate, in return for which the said directors have the privilege of electing aye imitates to the almshouses. The secretary further stated that the resources of the institution were ism& cleat to meet the demands upon the committee. Where. upon it was resolved, upon the motion of J. T. Wilmer/, Seq., Ali A , seconded by Mr. Richard Howlett, that some special effort be made to augment the fonds, is order that the full number of inmates may be elected to the laatitutiom. The parish of St. Pancras prides itself on leading in matters political and parochial; but, strange to say, it is far behind many lea, important districts of the metropelis in its charitable institutions. Almshouses hays bees loag feuded' in almost every other district. It was aot until the year l&50 that any attempt was made to establish an institution of this description is this perish. At the period named, Dr. Fraser, then church warden of tbs parish. caaveaed • meeting of a few philan thropic gentlemen at his house, and then and there the nucleus of the p institution wise formed. Subscription* were entered into, pleas submitted, sod • portion of the original design carried out. This eau not done without great rational ion; nor oould accommodation have been afforded to the nineteen persons who are sow inmate* of the alsoshotnes bat for the magnanimity of an individual member of the committee (Dr. Fraser), upon whom per eons' security a so/Beim:a sum of mosey was raised to enable the building to be proceeded with. From the report just issued it appear that • sum of 33.51. is still doe upon the debt thus incurred. Taking into cosoidsratioss the extent and wealth of the parisi,, it is really a matter of surprise that so •xeelleut en institution has not been better sup ported. If only one in twenty of the inhabitants were to ashaerib• a small sum enaeahy, there would be more than sufficient fends to carry out the benevolent intestioas of the projectors of the charity. Each annual subscriber of half a anises is testified to a vote for each candidate at every dee tion. The committee are strenuously exerting themselves to augment the number of subscribers, so that another election may at once take place, and the whole of the building thus bosons occupied.
