No news of the Pacific.
Three meetings of the Peace Conference
in Paris have been held, but the proceedings
had not been made public. Rumors favor
able and otherwise were circulated in abun-
dance, and at tie close of the week consid-
cradle alarm was created by a report that
Russia had stan ted objections which would
cause the Conference to break up. 1t was
however regarded as mere stock jobbing
ruSe.
The opinion increases that Immediately
after Peace is proclaimed, a general European
Congress will be held to re-adust the bal
ance Of power
On the 9th the Lord Mayor of London
assembled a distinguished party at the Man

vited to dine with the Queen, and etiquette
required to give the Queens dinner prece-
dence. The Lord Mayor made speech re-
GREETING Buchanan's absence, as the recep-
ton he would have met with by the leading
interests of England, would have proved to
him the friendly feelings of England towards
America. Similar feelings were expressed
by Golden and Earl Elgin.

on Thursday. The Conference opened on
Monday, the 25th.
Letters from st. Petersburg and Warsaw
to German papers, give the details of extern

The question of precedence has been
solved by the adoption of the alphabetical

The Paris Constitutional intimates that

The Zouaves attracted American observa-
ton from the merits of all the other troops
in Europe. We are excnsable, therefore, for
being ignorant of the qualities of the "80th
Regiment" and that battalion of rifles, y
which Lord Palmerston has ordered to Cam
ada. Their mission is to lower the tone OF
our diplomacy in the Central American and
Enlistment question, and to strengthen
bad cause and worse logic by an exhibition
of force aid the manifestation of a readiness
to fight. The S0th regiment may be very
"infefnal machine" and the "battalion of ri
fies'' the special messengers of Death. But
they are quite insufficient either for niiniste-
rial demonstrations in England, or diplomat
ic influence in America. Contracts to be per-
formed across the line between Canada and
New York, during the entire current year,
will be calmly made while the '80th regi-
ment" is disembarking on the wharves of
Montreal. They will be deliberately execu-
ted too, the season through, in hearing of
the target practice of those "Rifes."
The teaching of the Mexican War cannot
have been thrown away upon English States
men. One of its lessons assures every Amer
lean that upon the first note of his country's
call for volunteers to fight defensive war for
the Republic, particularly against the Brit
ish, half million of men would respond
and struggle with each other for precedence
in enrolment. The most active, the most
intelligent, the most enthusiastic, and the
most recklessly brave army that ever took
the field, would be mustered in four weeks,
and disciplined in twelve. All the "8Oth
regiments" and "rifle battalions" that could
be squeezed out of the remaining military
resources of England, and sent into North
America, would be licked up like thistles by
a'prairie fire.
1t would be presumption to say that war
cannot be established between Great Britain
and the United States. But we know of no
contingency so remote and so improbable
Commerce is King" The Cotton fibre is
the nexus of peace, The sword is not forged
sharp ehough to sever it, we do believe
The humane Office of America to feed Eng
land can not easily be changed. The rela-
tons established between the immense man
ufacturing of Great Britain, and the enor-
nous consumption by the United States-of
employment of large part of the labor and
capital of England in the supply of much of
the daily wants Of the people Of America =
of the use by both nations in their inter-
course, Of vast navies of merchant ships
cannot be crushed and obliterated save by
frenzy, which, however it may waste the
reason of individuals, has never been known
to possess entire Christian States. But if
the calamity of war between the two coun
tries should happen, every American would
regard its issue with complete confidence.
