we're helping to protect weak power against
strong enc; the CHEEKY confidence with which the
fortunes Of Alma and Inkermann were regarded as
the foretaste Of speedy conquest; the gradual re.
cepton of the idea that they had been made the tools
Of tottering usurper to help cement his despotism
with blood: and, finally the sullen rage with which
they had To submit to be- called of from the chase
at the moment il suited his purpOses-sl are to be
seen looking forth from the pictured pages, literally
speaking, Of our great cotemporary. Mr.. Punch
was declared under Surveillance in Paris, several
months ago, for making Liberty ask TO be god

Pelsee to Cayenne Of he can be caught) for this
new pictorial representation As pictures OF
slave markets and whippings used TO be called in
the good old Pro.Sayery times-of the new ally OF
England.
1t must lar strangely on the tens of thousands OF
hearts that this war has made 10 break over their
beautiful. their brave, lying in undistingulshed
heaps on Crimean battlefelds, TO read the descrp-
ton of Lord Granvile's and the Count de MOrny's
golden coaches and glttering trains az Moscow.
Wherefore all this waste Of hearts blood , they
horrors to be joining Of hands, of those leaguedto
humble the tyrant Of the North, al his barbara en-
thronement! Why could they not have ate, drank,
and been merry. as the philosopher asked the con
aueror OF old without - this waste OF wealth
ard loss of blood, Whist change has the Crmcan
war wrought for the better in the affairs OF Europe
or the position of England 1t has reduced her
from Ter post at the head Of Europe TO at best the
second place. II has established the throne OF the
French usurper as long as he lives and has made
him the dictator of the Continent II has left the
oppressed peoples of Europe where it found them,
under the heel of the Gar of the Pope, snd of the
Sultan. of the young Nero of Austria, and of the
frantic Caligua Of the Two Settles And it is
wound up BY England uniting with France and all
the tyrannies of Europe in swelling that gorgeous
ceremonial Of the GROWING of the man for whose
humiliation she had poured ont her blood and
treasure.
Great doubt is expressed, We see, in the English
papers. as to the good faith of the Emperor Aler-
snder in carrying out the terms of the peace. 30
this as it may be will certainly take the first oppor'
tunty that offers TO recover what he has lost aud TO
win what it is the ngraned ambition of his race to
gain. What if We should see, some fine day, the
two Emperors uniting to humble England aud disa-
bic her from intermeddng with the divine rights of
continental despots forever Stranger coalitions,
for more improbable purposes than this, have been
seen, and why not this, too Would it be more
strange than this late crusade Of France and En-
gland into Eastern lands, not as Richard CGur dc
Lion and Philip Augustus joined to dispossess and
scatter the followers of Mahound, but to protect
them in their lands and to defend them against their
enemies We see that the Garter has just been
sent TO Abdul Medjid by the Queen of England
smother sign Of the changing times The Grand
Turk is fallen indeed when the sovereign of a Ma
ton of Christian dogs thinks that she does him
honor in making him Knight Of u Christian Order,
aud when be thinks So too. When the Commander
of the Faithful, the Successor Of the Prophet, lie
amused with the crosses and ribbons sent to him by
the Nazsrenes it is plain enough that he has ceased
10 be what VI. Kossuth cHhortcd us to become, "a
Power on Earth" What would Anurath or Soly-
man have said to such protier 1t shows an
entire disintegraion of the IDEAS which made the
Turks terror to Europe for 30 many centuries.
The Sultan may have name 70 reign until the Grcas
Powers of Europe can agree how to cut hun up
without endangering themselves. But when Tur-
key is ready to be carved, poor Abdul Medjid must
take himself out Of the way-hang himself, If he
pleases, in the Garter kindly sent to him-ior he
can offer no enectual resistance to the Manifest
Destiny that awaits him. Punch will then have an
opportunity fora companion to this Cartoon we have
been telling about Of "The Climax of tho War"
