The Grand Result.

The New York Express thus sums up the "net results" of the late war in Europe:
 l. The treaties of 1915 are annulled.
 ?. The practice of consulting the Five Powers as to questions of War and Peace, and territorial arrangements, IS broken up.
 3. Sardinia gains an exhausted prov ince, menaced perpetualy on three sides, and requiring for it's protection force beyond her means 10 maintain.
 4. The friends of Sardinia get forgive ness for manilestng their friendship, and the privilege of returningeto the dominion of tyrants, whom the events of the past ninety days are supposed to have made honest. wise, merciGul and just.
 5. Austria loses one disaffected prov ince, but keeps the power of taking it again, keeps the control of the Adriatic; is confirmed in the possession of Venetia and Hungary; and acquires controlling influence over the whole of the Italian peninsula, Sardinia included.
 6, France gets military reputation, which she does not need, at the expense of resources which she does.
 2. Louis Napoleon gains military re- nown.
 He loses his reputation for tenacity of purpose-for faithful adherence to his en- agreements, and for foresight and the pres- tige of unvarying success.
 He has converted an enthusiastic friend into sullen dependent he has made ltal- ians, Hungarians and North Germans, his deadly enemies, and deprived himself of the aid of the Liberals in any future struggle.
 He has offended England, and inspired her with distrusl; and he now stands alone; feared by some, hated and cursed by many and loved and trusted by none.

ONE Coon REsuLr.--The expulsion of the Austrians from Lombardy has resulted in one benefit, at least, to the cause of liberal principles. One of the first acts of the new government has been to proclaim religious freedom in the emancipated states This is certainly an event that will go far to reconcile large portion of the liberal world to the unsatisfactory conclusion ol the war. IL is something gained, indeed when in country inhabited by two mill lions of people-where hitherto the right of religious worship and assemblage, the establishment of churches and schools has been denied to the professors of all other religions but one-where the most rigo- rous ideas of religious intolerance and ex- clusiveness have been enforced and main tained by all the power of one ofthe great est nations of the world-the idea of free conscience and worship is at last inaagu- rated and established. To render this achievement the more glorious and valua. ble, the credit and honor of it are due 10 a Catholic government and people. There has been no interference on the part ol those in whose favor this reform has beer accomplished. No Anti-Catholic power of the people has had any part in thi: contest. It is purely triumph of truth, principle and liberalism, and as such should elicit the applause and gratulatons of msr of progress and liberal ideas all over the world. -T New Orleans Delta.

tTuE RECENT RAINs-OUR STREETS, PAVE xvuTs. STEAMBOAT LANDING, ETc.-The late ,ains have rendered our streets very uncom- sortabe for pedestrians, and the "small .nount" of pavements give but occasional xs,ieF to the " waders through mud and water" pnt the greatest disadvantage is the Steamboat 1anding-whch, like our streets, is in truth a disrrsce to the town. Unless something is aone within the next six weeks, it will be Worse than folly to attempt to improve the Banding until next summer. Every one who :. cornizant of the facts, knows hat ma jority
 of the present Board of Aldermen of the town
 are to blame for the horrible condition of the streets, pavements, and steamboat landing. AS remedy for existing wrongs, we propose tbat they either resign their places or do some tlng toward public improvements. The Town Treasurer is a member of the Board, and he should either resign his position as Treasurer of Alderman, and the vacancy now existing ip the Board should be filled without delay. The people are refusing to pay their taxes for ibo present corporate year, as they are well asare that hundreds of dollars are now in the Treasurer's hands, uuappropriated, for the Keeping of which he receives two-and a-half per cent, while others offered to take care of ihs public funds without charge. The present members Of the Board of Aldermen are c. w.. VADEN, J. A. FRIrH, and A. s. ERWIN. There is a vacancy to be filled, created by the Iesignaton of N H. BURK.
 < The people demand, as is their right, that the public money should be used for public pp poses; and as the corporate authorities bsve on hand, and in available means, near tbFee thousand dollars, why, in the name of as!ice and the public good, do they not ex- pend at least the larger portion of it, on our treets and the steamboat landing?
 Juslice to Alderman ERWIN requires that we should state that he has expressed himself Favorable to improving the streets and landing. Let the vacancy in the Board be filled by a pblic-spirited man, and something may yet be done, this year, to redeem Des Arc from nuddy streets, miry landing, and "sloshy' psvements " Let it be pID,"
