ii s mistake to say that the higher classes OF En-
Gland accept the peace with satisfaction; IL Is WIN
a keen sense Of modification that they submit 10
it. And this is not only the feeling among the peo-

peace is highly opular-butit pervades the BIT
fsh army in the East, who thus deprived OF the
possibility of enacng the stain which rests upon
them for their complete failure In the attack on the

In connection with the peace I can give you
curious anecdOte which shows strlkingly how I'M
welcome il is. You rely on its truth; have IT

intended making some demonstration of Satisfaction
for the ratification the peace and plan for public
fireworks and reoicings was asked of a celebrated
Italian artist The plan was, it would appear, very
complete and beautiful it was highly approved OF
by minister's and acceptable, especially to the
Queen, who urged its adoption. The cost was to
be ego. 600 But Lord Panmure objected that the
peace was unpopular aud the Chancellor OF the
Exchequer declared that he had no money, and all

/ mentioned that the French Emperor was on
very good terms with Austria prior TO the opening
of the Peace Conferences this appears not to have
lasted and some say that ii is owing to the Overbear
ing compartment of Count Buol. | am inclined
to think that he made simply of Austria cats
paw-that he never intended to act in unison with
her during the Conferences; but meant to take up
q position which would make him the center-at-
traction Of the other European Powers. That
Russia will improve the peace is clear to every
body and that she will endeavOr to build an ALI

As to the questions pending between this

Minister be dismissed in consequence OF 1t, the
whole weight of the results will fall upon them.
What has not a little contributed toward opening
the eyes of Parliament to the truth, is not only
the publication of the official correspondence on
the subject, but also the fact that LORD Palmer
