shown what we can do, and it is for us—that is, for
Frame and England—to exhibit that virtue which is
'aid mho "the brightest jewel in a monarch's crown."
lifesia has lora a lemon which she is not likely to
forget. Her pride has been humbled, her ambition
MAO ; She hes been taught that there are limits
which she may not pass, and Europe has no" muse
for fear.

Now, we do not for one moment deny that the
fall of Sebastopol is a rplendid triumph. Alms,
lokermann, and Balaklava, were great achievements,
bearing witness to all the world that forty years of
peace in Europe had not impaired the " ancient
valour" of the Allies. But the destruction of Sebas-
topol is a fitting and terrible termination to the first
act in the drams. And yet, will any one who
considers the matter in a fair, truthful, and sensible
fuhion, be induced to believe that we have done all
that is required of us ? If the CZAR were now to
withdraw his armies, to confess himself vanquished,
to crave pardon, in the face of Europe, for the foul
injuries he has done, and the calamities which owe
their origin to his ambition and aggrandisement, it
would be for than who have fought side by side in
this fearful mutest to bind him down by con-
ditions more stringent than any which have hi-
therto availed against the practised cunning of
Russian diplomatists. No hopes, however, can yet
be entertained dutch a result. It is not the destruc-
tion of Sebastopol that will compel the Eitrasoa of
ALL the Russian to relinquish those ambitious
designs which he inherits from his predecessors. At
all events, it would ill become us, after all the sacri-
fices we have made, to retire front the contest before
we have clearly ascertained that the objects with
which we began the war are, in very troth, accom-
plished.

It is, perhaps, scarcely worth our while to point
out the glaring inconsistency between the opinions
professed, in the earlier phases of the war, by the
followers of Lord DERBY, and those to which we
have now called attention. Bat it is of great im-
portance that no man in this country or in
Europe should be allowed to believe that England
is wearied of the work in which she is engaged.
It must never be imagined that we are ready to take
advantage of our first signal triumph to lay down
our anus, and conclude a dishonourable pesos. No
one, indeed, who is possessed of a human heart can
perose without horror and anguish the fearful details
of that carnage and destruction, which were essen-
tial to our success. But not one man in a thousand
is therefore anxious to withdraw from the contest
until the cause has triumphed. Hateful as war iv,
repugnant as it is to the feelings which prevail among
nations, in proportion as they are civilised, it is only
a few fanatics, who maintain that to draw the
sword in any cause is a devilish invention, or those
who have some party purpose to serve, that wilt be
found at this crisis in the war to raise the cry of
peace at any price. We may not be fond of fighting,
bat we are not a nation of cowards. We are proud
that so many of our countrymen have been found to
go forth in the cause of truth and justice, to fight the
battles of their country, and to perish for her honour.
It is not at such a moment as this that England will
think of staying her hand. It was not until after
much deliberation that we entered upon the war. It
is in no hasty or impatient mood that we will sheathe
the sword.
