French Papers to . the «fith ;IrliVed last n:ght,
and in an official Bulletin from the army to the
EMPIIES, it is announced that.the Armistice has
been prolonged to the middle of August. There
is no date assigned to this intportantdispatch, and
the indefiniteness of the phrase middle of Au-
gust," instead of mentioning the precise 4a4 to
which the cessation of hostilities is extended,
must strike every person as 6eing sothewbat eX
traordinary. From these circumstances we awe-.
bend the fact to be, that no formal prolongation
of the Armistice has taken place, but that
a tacit understanding has been come to, not
to renew the %var on the expiration of the
truce (200,./nly), buf to rest upon the dlause re-
iptiriug notice on either side, in the. event of re-
sorting to arms, till such .iitue as the experburnt
of negociating a general peace' may have been
fully and fairly tried. This opinion, our Readers
will recollect, We
.hove all ;;long held, and cer-
tainly the contents of these Papers, and the
ner in which the contiimition of pacific relations
is stated, tend very stronglysto confirm us in re-
lying upon its being correct.

That there will be a Congress at Prague, ap-
plying itself to the stupendously difficult task of
settling Europe, and composing all the States'
of this mighty comnianweatth, Which 'have.
been so long and so dreadfully covnised,'
admits of no further doubt. It is alreatirappoint-

Eaglish Ambassador pushed tarnali Neuss (depriittricia of
the :sloselle), on his way to the place of Confess : kie, With

On the circumstance thu' alluded to, we have
Igo information, and rather imarine It to be some .
mi4take or fabrication of the French Editor.

It %could be Cosurd in us to attempt either to
dive into the views of *mite of the Powers whose
ambassadors have already reached the seat of
etnigrvii, or to, (fraw conclusions from general
principles- of sound policy applied to their pin ticalar
cases. But we may observe that, at least of Russia,
Prussia, and France, the purposes arc on solemn re-
cord, aud that nothing can be more conflicting or op-
posite than their declat ed inter) Austria,it may
fairly be presumed, is the Mediator who has under-
taken to modify and reconcile these jarring interests.
Ilow she may succeed it is impossible to decide;
the people of every country in Europe are most
earnest in their desires for Peace, and it will be

no very safe game to play, even by the most
san-
gainary advoeate for war, to resist any moderate
and rational propositions for the re-establishment
of the world. That no such propwitions can he
,made, without reducing mate! ially the" overgrown
powers of 131.70tIAPARTE, ia vident, nut we
thorefore take it for granted, that his assent
to the bare meeting of this Congress must be
construed into the manifestation of a disposition
(certainly forced upon him by disasters) to forego
all thosepretenslons and possessions uhich are
inconsistent with the independence and safety Of
other nations. This, in itself, is, a great point
gained, and the agreement pt the Continental
Powers, even upon preliminaries, which admit
of their Meeting to endeavour to adjust their
several claims, We have no he.sittttion in consitlet-
jug as a most ruvpirious erent. Whether Peace
for War be the issue, it must be well that the ob.
jests of all the Belligerents should be clearly de.
and that the nations should know whether
