LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 30, 1856,

To-morrow, the Speech from the Throne will
give some insight into the future prospects of the
country. We shall be better enabled to judge of
the chances of Peace, or of earnest and deter-
mined War, from the rather vague hints that
may be thrown out in the all-important address.
As we have already repeatedly explained, the
terms have not as yet been finally arranged, nor
do we believe that there will, during the present
year, be anything approaching to a decided solu-
tion of the difficulty. It L 4, in one respect, satis-
factory to find that the C.mferences are to be
held at Paris, rather than in any German capital,
so that both Houses of Parliament will obtain
speedy and authentic intelligence of the progress
of the negotiations, and thus be enabled to inter-
fere efficiently before any great mischief can be
perpetrated. The EMPEROR will be at hand to
control the action of the representative of France,
while the British Plenipotentiary will have
the power of obtaining almost instantaneous
advice from Downing-street, in the event of any
hitch not provided for by his previous instruc-
tions. These are important matters, and will
doubtless prove of immense weight in unravel-
ling the tangled skein of diplomacy.
We cannot, however, Conceal from ourselves
that there are ugly rumours in circulation—that
even the good faith of our chief
Ally has been
seriously impugned. We cannot yield an easy
credence to these flying reports. We have wit-
nessed the complete and unequivocal refutation
of many statements as boldly put forward, and
we hope, and believe, that the present will no,
have a different fate.

As we have already erplaintd, we cannot ex-
pect that the French Government should be con-
tented to go on without some distinct and unequi-
vocal understanding respecting aka the eventualities
that may arise. France has already reaped high
renown in the course of the War. Tier influence
has been greatly advanced, and most justly 30,
during the fierce conflict, and no true-hearted
Englishman will repine at her glory. Tt i.a almost
unnecessary to say that the gallant exploits of our
countrylueo have. 1
been p nropey appreciatad by
our Allies—that the depreciatory comments that
have been uttered against our brethren have found
no echo throughout the fair land of France. On
the contrary, all that has been done by England
and the. English has been hitherto regarded in
the most favourable light ; and
we cannot sup-
pose that a sudden and unreasonable ehanie•
should occL4r on t.r.,:vial or Laalftciera ;rounds.
Whoever Buy be the traitor, We Lucy that Le
