to shuffle out of them must be promptly and pe-
remptorily checked. Unless the " preliminaries"
ale, immediately and unequivocally signed, sealed,
and ratified, the war ouglat to go on. But we do
not think it probable that Russia will drive matters
to such an issue. She has already lost too much,
and has too certain a prospect of losing more if the
war continue. All the hints of her organs in the
continental press about her claims to lenient treat-
'went, all the praise of her magnanimity and boasts
of' her resources, are merely flourishes- of trumpets
to cover her retreat. What " courtesy" is due to
Russia ? The stern courtesy whiCh the duellist
(shows to his antagonist when he takes his ground.
. The courtesy inspired by the reluctance of every
noble heart to vent itself in railing. As for the
'lavish abuse of England, even in quarters where
common decency would have dictated a different
tone, they are no more than we expected, and can
despise. Have we not been accustomed for the
greater part of half a century to hear our struggles
during the great European war undervalued, and
our victory at Waterloo denied ? The universal
disposition to carp and cavil at England on all
occasions is an involuntary tribute to her great-
ness—the muttered envi-of less favoured nations.
England can afford to hold the even , tenor of her
way undisturbed by them.

England is alike prepared fOr war or peace,
whichever regard to her own honour and the in-
terests of Europe shall dictate. If it is to be war,
the duty of Englishmen is clear: to support the
Government in its vigorous prosecution, and to
watch jealously that the 'national mean are ap-
plied with judgment, and a wise, becausidufficions,
economy. If it is to be peace, other duties, no
less important and honourable, will devolve upon
us, and to these we would now invite attention.
