the intelligence which we have Of that, and the
speech Of the French Emperor, which We publish
below are interesting
The Peace Conference.
{ The Emancipation Bslge publishes communl'
cation purporting to proceed from Paris, which
says that the FIRST four points were at once deci-
dsd on Thursday; that the discussion Of Saturday
was reported to be very warm, and was 80, in
fact, between Baron Brunow and the English
Plenipotsntiaries, during which Count Orlof re-
maned quiet but that at last he broke his long b.
lence, and said as follows
"Pesce must be restored to the civilized world.
We are ell great enough to pass over certain de-
tails. 1t was who made the treaty Of Adriano-
pie, and to me it belongs to tear it. We accept
the ratification of the limits proposed for Bessar-
abba, and for the Asiatic provinces.
1--WE adhere to the condition about not re-estab-
fishing the fortress Of Bomarsund, and We desire
that the isles Of Aland shall be menace for no
one. There is no difficulty as to Nicoliea, and we
give up without compensation The city Of Kars to
our ancient and goodly ally, tho Sultan"
The Emancipation goes on to say that this Ian
guage caused (as we'll it might profound sensa-
ton-so profound, that the plenipotentiaries re-
mained silent-no doubt with joy. One Of them
found his utterance efficient to say: GAS we are
all agreed, let US sign" The signatures were at
once affixed, and the plenipotentiaries shook hands
and parted. The Emancipation ur!dckily adds,
that on thefollowing day (Monday) the Emperor's
speech would contain the announcement thatpesce
was made.
From the Liverpool Journal, March 8
The proceedings Of the conferences, or, as it was
called in Paris, the congress, continue involved
in impenetrsble obscurity. Either there is moth.
ing particular done, or what is done is kept pro
! found secret It was known on Monday that the
preliminaries of peace had been signed but Lord
Palmerston, when questioned in the evening in the
House Of Commons. by Mr.. Disracli, refused to
tell on what day they were signed, his answer be.
ing vague one" some recent day last week. y
Mr.. Disraeli probably knew that they were signed
on Sunday, and Lord Palmerston 10 avoid giving
offence to the religious mind of the country, turned
off the question by jest, which, like all his lord
ships jokes, ELECTED laughter.
1t was expected that the speech of the Empero,
of the French would have made some allusion t
this matter but his Majesty dealt largely on gen
eralities, and made no specific reference to thu
proceedings of the congress. The speech WAS OBJ
vously greatly elaborated and it seems that, afte
being printed, Louis Napoleon introduced man.
alterations. France, however, seems apparent,
satisfied and all Europe looks with united conf
dence to general peace.
The Independence does not enter 50 much int
detail, but it maintains its assertion Of the pre-
liminaries being signed, and also states that tn
Emperor's speech would contain the announcement
about peace. This story is regarded in Paris n
similar to that of the first taking Of sebsstopol

Of similar state Of things, and it is suspected

The Post says, the signing Of the protocol agreed
to at Vienna indicates that, after weeks confer

far as they have yet gone, the envoys understand
one another, and are agreed.
