THE EUROPEAN wAn.

ZmHE
We confess that at the commencement
of the present European War, III sym
pathies were wholly enlisted on the side
of the Allies. We have none now, ex-
cept for Turkey. To our mind the OBJ
ject of the different parties engaged in
the present War, are becoming daily
more apparent. England is engaged in
it to protect aud increase her commerce.
France, the leading spirit, seeks to strike
a blow against Professionalism. All the
Catholic powers of Europe-exeept Eng
land-are either engaged IN a crusade
against Russia, or laying still, 50 far as
any outward movement is cSacerned.
The ultimate intentions of France and
England are entirely different. France,
before this War closes, Will have the best
disciplined soldiers ia the world-her
feet the best-and we think will not
have any particular objections to making
q demonstration on England. We con-
ceiYe It would be the pride and glory of
every Frenchman, to cripple the British
Lion. We have lately thought much of
the origin and close of this War. The
sequel will show Epgland to be the loser.
She win be stripped of a portion of her
possessions, and will be reduced to a
second-rate power. Shouldthat day ever
come, we shall see the Irish nation rise
as one man, and engage in a death strug-
gle for the liberation of Ireland.
Much sympathy would be felt in the
United States for the Allies, if they
would re-estabIish the Kingdom of Po-
land. This single act on their part,
would do more to cripple Russia, than
all they have yet accomplished in the
Grimea. England and France are evi-
IDENTIFY badly disappointed in their dem
onstration against Sebastopol. British
Statesmen and British Generals pre-
sumed much on the superiority of Eng
lish soldiers over those of Russia. The
exhibition of the Gallo Cock and the
Crescent in the Crimea, has only made
the Gear more determined. Sebastopol
has not yet been taken, and we doubt
very much whether it ever will be. The
losses Of the Allies are very great. The
climate kills more than Russian guns.
Already are reinforcements from all parts
of the i~nexhaustable Empire of Russia
on the move for Sebastopol. The Allies
are calling loudly for assistance, and it
depends very much upon which receives
che first reinforcements, as to who viii
BE masters of Sebastopol. The Allie:
viii b compelled to leave the Russians
In their fortresses, aud they may thank
their stars if the Gear, with the million
and a half of soldiers which he will have
in the field in the Spring, does not car
ry the War into France and England
NICHOLAS is undoubtedly the Creates
Monarch in Europe, and, before thii
War is over, he will teach the Western
Powers that they can neither drive hin
out of the Crimea or sever it from hil
Empire. These Powers will yet lear1
that Empires and Kingdoms are not tt

may command, but it will be remembered
that one CANoTE once commanded anc
