New Orleans Picayune of the 9TH inst, states
that it is informed by private letters received in
that city from San Juan del Norte, by the Da-
MEL Webster, that the difficulties between

THE NEWS FROM EUROPE.

There is but one item of marked importance in
the Europas news we published Monday MOI ning,
and that Isl the fine settlement of the difficulties
between Turkey aud Russia, which, at one time,
threatened to bring into collision the great powers
Of Europe. The points involved in the quarrel were
of but little interest to Americans but war be-
tween Austria and Russia on the one hand and
Great Britain, France, and the Turk on the other,
ould have been catastrophe that would have
startled all Chrstendoa and led to results too
menous to foTesee in advance. As it is the entente
eordialc between the respective powers seems to
be restored that everything LOOKS tranquil again.
But Europe is in that uncertain ste'~ which pre-
pares for any kind of an outbreak at any point
The fires that burn are smothered-we see not the

PAUL. JuLIEN-We regret that we did not hear
this youthful Apollo until the n2h of his last Con
cert. We would have taken pleasure in speaking
more particularly of his very extraordinary merits
than we have done, at a time when it would have
been uf more service to him. The Examiner
speaks truly when it says he sthe best volnist we
have had here since SIvoRI. In the clearness,
sweetness and taste of his execution it very much
resembles the performance of that accomplished
musician. Had we been in a different room from
Julien should have strongly suspected that
our old 1avorite, SIvoRr, was here again. JULIEN
is a mere boy, only - years old, and mas in the
loveliest degree the artiess manner, and the con.
siding and frank expression of youth. In behold.
ing 80 bright and gentle boy executing the
finest and mbst difficult passages of music with
precision, ease and exquisite taste, one cannot
avoid feeling infused along with his admiration
sentiment Of very tender regard, and almost wish
ing that the young performer might ever retain the
same youthful freshness and innocence that he
now wears No adult performer that we have
heard, save SIvoK1, was his equal His staccato
notes are faultlessy distinct-the time and expires
sion of his graceful passages were exquisite-and
his whole performance one succession OF delicious
hatmones In an exquisite composition, with pas.
sage from William Tell for {ts theme, he gave an imi
tation OF the oagpipe, whic had all the point snd
force of one OF KNooP's. HE audience was per.
fecty carried away with delight during Its per-
torrance. JULIEN is destined, we think, to out
strip all contemporaries in mia art--certainly he
will not be excelled By any. We hope ne may
pass this way again soon.
