In the Pgace of Paris, 1856, there ifi--NAPO-
LEON 111. birnself assures us=" Nothing hntnili-
ating to any Power." Noaidtg latnalicaing to any
Power ! _Goof GOD ! And is Russia, after all
at has been said and done, is Russia not to be
ju any way hurnbled—Rusiia, whose lawless and
unprovoked attack upon her inoffensive neighbour,
Turkey, originated the whole of this lamentab'e
War, With all it 3 consequent mi cry, with all, its
wholesale effusion of blood, with all its gigantic

and ruilous expenditure ?
Remembering everything that has occurred
during the past two years—these two awful
years, replete with so much appalling horror
and wretchedness—is Russia to be, after all, in
no way btu-Wed? After the insgent mission o'
Prince M.INSCIIIROPF to C,nstantinople. After
the wanton violation of the tranquillity of Euroie
by the sudden passage of the Pruth. After the
illegal occupation and the pitiless ravaging of Ulf
Danubian Principalities. After the execrah!e
fusillades sweeping the doomed streets of J issv
and .Tient upon all this, it
Russia in no way at all.. to be humbled ?
Russia not to be humbled ? After the infarnons
massacre at_Sinope. After the brutal ambuscade
at Hango-Ud. After the savage discharge of tlo-
guns of alessa upon tha wreck of the foundering
Tiger. After the barbarous cruelties and indig
nities offered to the miserable wounded, stretched
in agonies among the ruins of lukerman and io
Co valley of Balaklava,
Horrified, by recollections like these, are
ive to he told now, in the spring of 1856,
thatgory of the new Peace of Paris
consists in the fact of its not in, any way
leading to the humiliation of Russia ? Gracious
Heaven !—and are we to. be so mealy-mouthed
about Rus,iia and everything Rumia.n, about the
CZAR and the Czan'a Government about the
"honour" (Ye GODS !) of an empire which from
its' very foundation has ever opposed sh,eer
brute force, and nothing bat sheer brute force, to
all the sacred principles, to all the holier in-
stincts, to all the inalienable rights, privi-
leges, and immunities of civilisation ? Is every-
thing to be forgotten about those impious and
lying proclaniations of the late Emperor NICHOLAS,
by the publication of which so much honest indig-
nation was provoked throughout the length and
,breadth of Christendom ? Is nothing at all to be
remarked" about the hereditary policy of PETER,.
Miscalled the Great, the policy goading Czar after
Czar to the most wholesale and flagrant robberies
-ok a territorial kind to the north and to the south;
to east and to the west, carrying the modern
Goths and Vandals (the soldiers of the House of
•Ro-Irazrovio) across the—frontiers of Persia and of
Turkey, 9f Sweden and of Bjland7—bringing them
by a succession of enorMoUs encroachments, now
upon this side, now upon that, from the far in-
land and at' length almost forgotten. Duchy. of

-he---newsppers, about some absurd iiilver gilt
inkstand manufactured at a cost of some 11,000
francs—and about an eagle-quill filagreed with
gold mounting, and deckedfor aught 'We know too
with precious stones, for the signing of the. Precious
Peace (a pen of state to be preserves! as a trophy•
of rare value by the beautiful young Empress
Etrominz)—What miserable trash is all this aboUt
the gewgaw quill and 'thee jimcrack ink-bottle
used in the consummation of their deplorable
Conferences by this high and mighty conclave
of soft-speaking, soft-hearted, soft-headed Pleni-
potentiaries Victims led to the sacrifice have
been twined and festooned with gay garlands
before now—and so, we suppose, the peoples of
Western Europe are to be amused, at the moment
of tile signing of the Precious Peace, with cock-.
and-bull stories about the splendour of the feather
and, the. standish, by which France and England'
have been juggled into a disgrabeflul compromise
by the wily, complicity of- Russia and the Ger-
manic Confederation. Bah ! the folly of this is a
vast deal too, transparent. It is only surpassed by
the:meanness of the self-complacent joy by which
the disgrace of Western-. Europe is proclaimed;-
amidst the exultant clash of church belts 'andthe
triumphant discharoe of salyoes of artillery i _
Beyond• what has already been said about

Rdt-Sia; 'we do eaniestly trust and . Mope that it
will be,.particularly remarked inrthis eoliutryhow
-those despicable neutrals Austria and. Prussia
_have been enabled to come out of the Conferenoes
with tlying.colOnrs:..—and to flout them insolently
(so to speak) in the face of Christendom. Again,
we repeat in their regard what we have said more
+hart once already—They have played their
game in the recent War to perfection ! While
England and France have been squandering
their blood and treasures in the struggle- to
no purpose whatever—Austria and Prussia have
been sagaciously husbanding their resources.
Prussia indeed has contrived to do more than
t lig. She has contrived to turn a (we won't
say an honerit) penny during , the contest,-
having . ail ,the while, so to speak, in many
ways undisputed command of the Russian
markets] Austria, on the other hand, like
the shrewd attorney in the fable who swai-,
lowed.the 'oyster and gave the shells to the dis-
putants has retained possession throughotit
the War (retains possession at this present-
moment) of ' the Moldo-Wallachian provinces,`,
about which the whole War sprang into exist-
, ence originally—permitting the Allies of Tur
key to have anything they like to do with
the frontiers of the principalities 'on the side of
Roninelia,_and allowing Rassia benignantly t,i
effect whatever she-pleases alorigr.the line of Iheir
'hoiindaries on the side of Bessarabia ! And now
—regard ialtad (both in France and -.England)
not merely to the " honour" of Rnssia, but to
the conciliation of these same miserable Gerniau
neutrals. german !=tti it, however, We all know
,is a ,clue l) everything woefut:ani sinister in these
most deplorable transaccions:l Uli,n" the " con-
ciliatory" spirit evinced throughout the recent con-
ferences by our own T,
Pienipotentiariea, Lord:PA
MERSTON himself has spoken very decidedly
tud explicitly iu the House of Cotn slots. In his pre-
posterous reMarks on Monday evening uttered byway
,if explanation-as to the Peace—remarkS'made irr
Iris usual light comedy style, as if the conduct of
the affairs of a great nation were really about tits.,
richest juke in the wide world—the Prime
ter, with a parenthetictl "(laugh)" here and there
sprinkled up and down his little fribbling speech
by the reporters, said—Listen to what Lord
PALMERSTON sai on M mdaynight in the Houee'
of Commons in ri..s...ce to this P,ooi.os reace,
0 sensible anemanly Englishmen ! Listen l—
ois Lordship condescended to say among other
hings" must be gratifying to the country;
o ktiovr that nothing co-ii!:tl 'exceed the ability'
which the British negotiators have .perforined
.heir arduous and difficult task during these pogo-

tiatiuna.

Lid CLARENDOX and Lord COWLEY
itsve,not only maintained the honour aid interest
of the country which they represented, .. but they
hare, by their conciliatory conduct, secured the re-
spect,'esteent, and gbod-will of those with 'Whom they
had to cominunie,ate," Very gratifying indeed—
reinf3inbering Russia, Austria, and 'Prussia, renietn-
boring the.sol icitude evinced of late in reg'trd to-the
" honour " of the CZA.R and the anxiety recently
41(4nthat 11Q Power...at, all' should feel the pang
of "Itutni!iation "—about as gratifying, as the
silver-gilt inkstand and that tom-foolery .about
tfe pen made"out of an eagle's quilt tricked 'out
with jewels and gOld'-filigree . .

The official announcement.of the Treaty of PeaCc
vas on Monday, night made to the Hons.° of Com•
toons.by- the Premier. The information elicited
was, hovrever,.of a very meagre and unsatilfactory
character, adding nothing to what was not pre-
viously known to every member of the. House,
tnd, indeed, to every inhabitant of London and
Lhe metropolitan counties. With respect to the
ature of the terms h.!;.reed on, Lord PA LERSTON
was in the position of the needy knife-grinder—
" Story, GOD bless ..you, I have none to tell"—
and, it is only7to be regretted' that' there was not
°me "friend of humanity" in a.tteudance -to
punish the wilful suppression of the tale. It ap-
pears that the public must smother ,their.very
natural anxiety to. know what has been amain-
Idished until the exchange of ratifioAtious, which
is to take place within four weeks at the out Side,
but which it is hoped may be effected within
i,bree weeks. For that time, at least, we must
be contented "to chew the cud of sweet and
bitter fancy ;" to imagine what has been done, as
Well as what has been. left undone, and to make
• .. •
up our minds as to somethingextremely bad, be-
fore any authentic or reliable information can be
obtained.

The general phraseitised by Lord
_PALM Easros
afford but little foundation for bright anticipations,
Of course it would, under any circumstances, be
stated
"than
the objects:for which the War had
been undertaken had been fully accomplished:"
To Y- " 'otherwise would- be- to admit that the
Western
l'-owers- had been defeated,. and com-
pelled to Withdraw, While the work on which they
had soleinnlY anA deliberd.tely entered remained
unaccomplisited, it• would, also,
.asserted and independence
of " the integrity pat u rally be

of the. Ttirkishupire:betnn secured, so far
as human arrangements can effect-ihat iSurPose."
But how ? Aye, that's the rub !
