.'r ts►t same of the great Indian drama having
teen played out, the chief actors were List night
celled before the curtain to restive the plaudits of
the public. In no ungrudging spirit Parliament
voted its thanks to the great men who had trodden
out the Sepoy ',Achim and restored peace to those
beg die•racted Irenincee which had been the sane
of she fiercest intestine war yet recorded in the
soa.als of our eottutry ; and never were thanks better
dreerved by soldier or by statesman than those which
were last night thus cheerfully mated out. On
such an occasion there could scarcely be any difference
of opinion, except as to the amount of pettier to be
bestowed upon iodivieloal heroes. There was
so war of elu'eous origin to be criticised.
aggrereion had been committed—no injue-
tic* bad been perpetrated. Our people, is
righteous self-defence, had inflicted just retribu-
ti m upon an unprovoked and unsparing enemy ; and
by a series of triumphant sticeesees, often achieved
against the most formidable odds, they bad brought
bark the b:eesings of peace and order to a harassed
country. and once more held over a 'offering people
the era of a strong aid settled Government.
We do not envy the man who could hear the
speeches delivered last night, or read them in the
public journals this morning, without a feeling of
pride in has eatioaslity. It is no small thing to be
the comittymen of the CANNINGS and ELPIIIN-
11ToNIS ; the LAWRENrES aid OUTRAM,; the Came-
Del.Le, the CorroNs, and the Roses, who were
the the lie yesterday evening of the eulogies
of rival statesmen, eager to outdo one another
in tee liberality of their tribute,. It would
scarcely be an exaggeration to say that the world
had never seen such a spectacle before as that of the
suppreftion of the great Indian rebellion. One
would have thought that it was an absolute necessity
of our position in India that we should be wholly
extinguished or driven for dear life's eke into the
ocean. We have read somewhere of a spa to whom
a peculiar odour of sanctity attached, and who, when
said what would be the result of the then priding
struggle, replied that all the English in India would
be driven nut but one man, and that that one man
would recover the country for the Feringhees. This
prediction indicated the prevailing sense of the in-
domitable power of the Anglo-Saxon race. In the
current figurative language used at the time, in the
correspondenee of the Sepoys and others, topia (hats)
were seams I preggrie (turbans) were plentiful in the
market. What a picture of heroism is presented by
the stand of thee few hats against the overwhelming
host of turbans. It was generally held—that is, it
was tacitly acknowledged, if not loudly declared,
that we remained in the country only by sufferance,
sod that the first formidable rising mast be fatal to
the supremacy of the British conqueror. But there
has been a formidable rising with everything to
favour it. The mutiny broke out in the middle of
the hot weather, when European energy is for the
most part paralysed, end at a time when the necessi-
ties of external warfare had done meek to divest
the country of white-faced troops. Breaking eat,
too, in proximity to the imperial City of Delhi
the EING.II same "—the name of the GLUT
Mooct.--teressee es a tower of strength "to the it
eargente. Bat, in spite of all this, in spite of
the confederacy of Ntahoneedans and Hines*
the union, for a common object, of antagonistie
meet, the Englishman held his own, one against a
thousand, and before succours could arrive from his
far-off country, had borne the brunt of the rebellion
and inflicted such a heavy blow and great air
ceuragement upon it, that it could never again arise
from its preetratios. Other European States looked
our—perhaps, with eager hope, yearning for our
overthrow—at all events with wondering interest

and anxiety ; and greatly have we risen is the esti-
station of all by the marvellous vigour and elms-
ticit y we bare displayed in the face of such
astounding difficulty and denier. Can any praise
be tiro highly pitched—car any honours sad re-
wards be too great—for the men who, by • emeabi-
liallo4l of wisdom and of courage ansurpsimed is
the annals of the world, have mimed our empire
ealeiy thmagh a storm that would have over
whinnied and shivered • vessel lees adroitly pitied
and lees resolutely manned !
'foe great source of national gratitade is the
restoration of peace. We do not thank the great
men whose same were last night recorded in the
Par:iamiratary master-roll of English heroes so mesh
for achieving victories in war as for ammun-
phobias the groat triumph of peace. We
had grows envy et eamsage—we had sopped
full of kerma. It was to be apprehended that
the longer the wee wee protracted the mine
difficult would be the restoration of national Gong-
&oar lied the voters to social order sod geed
government. no the war Is ROW really over may
be gathered freer thealgedimed anamencensent that
the COMMANDut-tx-Cann has genie to Simlah. The
sword is sheathed—the portfolio of the acheinir
trator is Opel in his heed. There is a great work
before him, sad fortunately there are great sea still
left in India to develop the resources of the peace
which hes bees so propitiously inaugurated. the
task which lies before them is not an cosy oms ;

but if tory address theinse.vee • to it in :B1
spirit of forbearance and toleistioo, all all-
culties will disappear before them. Confidence,
at any time " a plant of slow growth," is doubly
so when it has once been rudely torn op by the
roots. It is long before it will strike again into the
I soil and put forth its branches above the ground.
It requires delicate nurture, skilful cultivation,
before it as recover from the injury it has received.
Bat with GOD'S blessing we may look for this re-
covery In His good time ; and in the meanwhile we
cannot be too grateful to tome who have put an end
to the fierce struggle, which U much longer con-
tinued would have rendered this great and happy
result one of almost imperials attainment.

Lair night Mr. Dteahuti postponed the date of
hie explanation of our foreign relations, which was
to have been made this evening, until Monday next.
We are kit therefore in the interval to such light as
can bir obtained at ordinary sources of information.
From the terms which Austria has laid down as
the condition upon which she will consider the
affairs of Imly in a European Congress we may
infer, not only what chances there are that such a
body will ever meet but also how much, or per-
haps how little, reason there is to expect that,
under present circumstance., it could contribute
to secure the peace of Europe. For, while we
ha,

me not the kut wish to undervalue the
attempts of diplomatists to substitute the influence

of reason for the arbitrament of the sword, we must
remind some, who in the meeting of ten plenipoten-
tiaries round a green table see • certain pledge of the
solution of all present difficulties, that it is just pos-
sible that a Congress may prepare and embitter,
in►tead of averting • war. Nothing has done so
much to make our public the victims alternately of
deceitful rla'ion and undue depression, during the
last three months, in view of Italian affairs, as the
persistent endeavour of an ioauential portion of the
press to fix attention on the secondary causes of the
present crisis, while the permanent sources of Euro-
pese derangement as they exist in the unnatural
political situation of twenty-six millions of people
have been ignored. or syaematically underrated.
At the present mamma, when all Italy understands
that Austria must be the enemy of freedom, not may
in Lombardy and Venice, but in Modena, Pa, tan,
Tuscany, and the Pontifical States, and must seek i:s
destruction even in Piedmont itself; when thotisacels
of Italian youths ere flocking from all puts of the
country to the Sardiuian flog, and Europe is moved
to avert the collision that must ensue—what lathe
language of Austrian statesmen ? They affect to
arraign Sardinia before Europe of disturbing their
infernal " social order." They propose to Russia
and England, before going into any Con.
greet, to despoil Sardinia of the only defence
she has in the valour of her children, and disarm
the troops of the one fres State in Italy. Not a
single concession to the public conscience or to the
interests of Europe ia made in the remarkable
paper, addressed on the 31st of March by Count
Buoi. to our Ambassador at Vienna ; and indeed it
would have been strange if there had, for none was
asked for. Austria regards • Congress as a waive-
Meat plan for repeating the old accusation of the
Wolf against the Lamb. She is perfectly prepared
to maintain that she is in the right, and to mist
any temtual diminution of her power fee evil in
Italy. Bath pretensions are a challenge to war.
