THEPEACE CONFERENCES.
From the LOndon Times.I


From the London TiHaes.l
P.ARrSs Sunday March 2S=-6sP. Mt was
confidently reported yesterday, and with every
Eappearanceo of truth, that the labors of the Con-
gross were last night TO be brought to conclu-
sion. It was even affirmed that the treaty of
peace would be signed at the same time, SO that
the Moniteur might be able to announce it this
morning, a few hours only before the celebration
of the 1s DeUMs In thanksgiving for the Empress
safe delivery of Prince. The effect would have
been fine-whife the solemn strain was pealing
beneath the roofs of every cathedral in France.
that the thunder of cannon should announce the
consummation of the work of peace. On such
occasions people hardly content themselves with
the bare truth, and we are now assured that so
certain was the Emperor of the signing of the
treaty that orders had been given for llumina-
tons in the Ministerial offices 1t may be so,
the fact Is not important; but of the confidence
with which the conclusion of peace was looked
forward to / have no doubt
Whenthe PIenipotentiariesS eperated on Thurs
day lastitwas understood that the next meeting
would take place on Saturday: and up to Friday
night the hour remained the same at which they
usually assembled. Notice, however, was sent
round that it was necessary the Congress should
meet earlier than usual There was a good deal
of business to-gct through. and it was desirable
to meet as soon and separate as late possible
A Ministerial journal had prepared the public for
the expected solution by stating that after three
tee s'the sitting of Yesterday would not fail to
be Important In one or two quarters it was
mysteriously whispered that the discussionwo
be an animated and its close not a satisfactory
one. On the authority of other and more sang
uine parties it was affirmed on the contrary that
the business of Yesterday would be of the light
est and would hardly be more than affixina Sig
natures and shaking hands.
L regret to say that the more agreeable pre-
diction has not been realized. UnauimIty did
nifty nearly prevailed. the dissentients whoever
they NAV be were sufficiently powerful to dis
apDoint the exnectations Of the nublic. The
discussion was moi 50 amicab,e rs had been an
