The War is Closed.

The war in Europe, which has recently
been the subject of so many dispatches Is
ended. Nearly 100000 men have perished
in the contest but what Of that? The BAL
ance of power is preserved upon the Oontl'
nent that is to say, balance which Is vastly
much i" favor Of France. Austria has sur
rendered Lombardy to Napoleon ana N"po-
leon gives it to the King of Sard'n whose
daughter has married his relation. Napoleon
con alone preserve the possession to the Sar-
diniap King, and has itin his power to annex
conditions to such preservation to suit him
self
Many persons seem 10 be disappointed that
Napoleon wonld consent to peace before the
liberties Of Italy were thoroughly establish
ed. They forget that the entire object for
which he went into the war has been accom-
plished. 1t is true some eredulous individ =
uals supposed that Napoleon designed to
enfrauchse Italy, and to right all her wrongs
But this was most unfounded suppostion.
It was not likely that he would send his ar
mics in ls4s to ivet the chains of her citi-
zens and in few years afterwards send other
forces to undo them So violent change OF
opinion could not reasonably have happened,
under circumstances of the character Of those
which have transpired, for nothing has yet
made it his interest to thus change his mind
and his conduct.
Napoleon has undoubtedly been octuated
! bv selfish motives in this war and Italy has
passed from the despotic grasp of Austria in
to the hands of simply another despot. She
may possibly have proftcd by the change
but she is not free.
We may expect to Sec still, great discon-
tents in the Italian States Garihaldi will
