Peace in Europe.

Near the close of last week was re.
ceived from Europe, the quite unexpected
int ligence, that an armistice had been
concluded between the two Emperors, and
that the proposition first came from Ma
poleon. Following hard upon this, by an.
other arrival, we have the agreeable news
that peace is made. The dispatch comes
to us on Monday as follows:
New YORK, Sunday, July "a.
Peace has been concluded between
Frame and Austria on the following basis:
The Italian States are to form a confed-
GRAFTON, under the honorary presidency of
the Pope. The Emperor Of Austria con-
ctdes his rights in Lombardy to the EN-
peror of the French, who transfers them
to the King Of Sardinia. The Emperor
Of Austria retains Venice, but she will
form an integral portion of the Italian
confederation.
The French and Austrian Emperors had
on interview at Villa Franco on the llth
of which the above was the result.
From the information yet received, it is
impossible to form very satisfactory
opinion of what the treaty really amounts
to, or its probable effect upon the Italian
States. 1t seems, however. hurdy pos
sible that the ardent hopes of Italian in.
dependence can approach very near a
realization. The French nation comes out
Of the contest with prestige which no
European State can contemplate with sat.
isfaction. Never did campaign reach
SO speedily such important results and
never did the armie; of France, ever under
Napoleon !, DO themselves greater honor
and their head has shown that he not only
knows how and when to conquer, but when
to refrain from conquer.ng.
But little was known about the effect
of the news on the fund, and but little of
the agency Of other powers in bringing
about the result. 1t is enough for one
day TO know that the horrors OF Solferino
are Lot again soon to be repeated.

Gentlemen, according to your appoint
ment we have attended the annual exam.
ination Of the School 10 all its depart.
ment'. We take pleasure in saying, that
while different classes have shown differ nj
degrees Of excellence. we have found gen.
orally abundant evidence of earnest, care.
full and conscientious efforts on the part of
the teachers to impart instruction to their
pupils in the various branches of science,
and to form IN them habits Of independent
thinking: and we have found evidence on
the part Of the pupils, that their efforts
have been in a good degree successful.
We have been pleased to observe in the
course of the examination that, in most of
the classes, pupils were allowed to exhibit
their proficiency By discussion of topics
without being drawn out by aiding ques.
lions on the part Of teachers. Thi. is 40
obviously the correct mode ef ascertaininp
how much scholar really knows about

adoption hereafter, in al branches, as well
In the lower mathematics as in the highest
intellectual studies. An examination ia
designed to chow the pupil and not the

the old Pennington Copper Company's
property, now the property of the
Hunterdon Copper Company. is again
the scene of mining operations. The
act Incorporating the Hnnterdon Cop

authorizes the issue of 100000 of
capital stock, divided into ten thou
sand shares of $50 each, AS we learn
from a pamphlet containing DR.. Dick

the property, etc. One hundred and
seventy-seven bags of copper ore
about eighteen tons-was the first
shipment made by the new company.
