COURT BISMARCK'S CIRCULAR.

The Spectator says that there is certainly no nonsense
about Count Bismarck, but the sense there is—and it is
plenty—is of the hardest conceivable grain of which good
sense can possibly consist—and everyone knows that
there is a sort of sense so hard that it ceases altogether to
be good sense, ceases altogether to be of the kind available
for the successful manipulation of human affairs. That is
the direction in which Count Dismarck's sense promises
to fail, if it fails at all. The famous " iron and blood"
not only backs his diplomacy, but enters into it. It is
hardly posAble for a diplomatic document to be more
curt and scornful within the conventional forms
than Count Bismarck's criticisms on M. Jules
Favre's memorandum of the unsuccessful negotiation.
Count Bismarck's final remark, that M. Jules Favre and
his colleagues declined the armistice from fear that a Con-
stituent Assembly Would have declared in favour of peace,
and from a wish to prolong the difficulties which prevent
the conclusion of peace, is not marked by his usual
plausible candour, Count Bismarck, no doubt, wishes to
discredit the Provisional French Government with the
powers of Europe ; but it was hardly decent,—well
knowing, as he did, that he had, no doubt quite
legitimately from his point of view, demanded terms
which would render peace impossible till it could be dic-
tated within the walls of Paris,—to sneer at his adver-
saries for their insincerity in not accepting what it would
in all probability have cost them their lives even to sug-
gest. Few men improve with success ; and Count Bis-
marck is not certainly not one of these. His circular of
the 27th September is far more arrogant, less moderate,
and less frank than either of the circulars of the 13th and
16th September, which preceded the negotiations.

THE WHITE-SALVE MINISTRY.
The John Bull says that had England's influence been
what it should, had her moral prestige and her military
renown been as it was in the days oeWellington, neither
of the belligerents would have dared to enter on this war.
As it is we are alike detested and ridiculed in every foreign
capital. We are mere worshippers of money and success.
We have a " white salve " Ministry who call peace when
there is no peace ; who abandon the once proud position
England held abroad because it is expensive and dis-
tasteful to the friends of peace at any price. Let us hope
that Englishman will be awakened in time, will refuse,
for the sake of paltry economy or party gain, to allow
England, erst the admiration and dread alike of Europe,
to be degraded to the position of a third•rate Power, and
in the day of her necessity—whether it be at home or in
India—deserted by those who would have been her firmest
allies. With a Republic in France and America, and a
disaffected Ireland, what chance is there for England if
neither at Berlin, Vienna, or St. Petersburg, one single
good word can be spoken for a nation which allowed her-
self to be misrepresented by a selfish and pusillanimous
Government, afraid to declare a policy, or even in its vain
attempts to dress a wound to use any but a colourless
salve ?
