E Late arrivals from Europe indicate
anything but peace of long duration in
that part of the world. The Italians are
dissatisfied with Napoleon's treaty with
Austria, and unless large concessions are
made them by the latter, will re-commence
the war on their own hook. The French
themselves are dissatisfied with the termi-
nation of the war; and unless Napoleon
can kick up breeze with some foreign
power so as to divert the attention of his
subjects from himself, he may have trouble
to keep down insurrection within hiseown
dominions. The English are apprehensive
that Napoleon has some bad designs up
on. them, and are, busily fortifying the
sea coast, and rubbing up their old war
vessels, to be prepared for an invasion.

PIcN1cs.-The several Picnic Parties
got up by the citizens Of our town, this
summer, have pretty fairly drawn the lines
between those who take part in such gath
erings with view to wholesome, laudable
enjoyment, and are not too stingy to CON
tribute their quota of the means necessary
to gettbem up properly. and those who go
there only to eat, to stuff themselves with
the good things provided by others. The
first class begin to thoroughly understand
the second, and hereafter will improve up
on their knowledge of them. The party
on Saturday last was made up mostly Of
the eaters. They came on the ground
early y-the wagonsload, and their cadav-
erous ccuutenances indicated that they had
been starving themselves for twenty-four
hours previous in order that they might
carry away bigger load. When the
word was g ven that the tables were ready
they apitched in," and the poor, 4bashful
mortal who imagined he saw upon them
something to eat, would be startled on the
second lookat beholding nothing but emp
ty dishes, where moment before he beheld
piles of cake and other good things. The
crowd dispersed in a bad mood, each party
resolving that they would have nothing
more to do with Picnics, but for different
reasons, the one because they got nothing
at all to eat, and the other because tn y did
not get as much as they expected. The
latter have our deep, heart felt sympathies.

JOY OF THE AUSTRIAN PRISONERS. Z
Many amusing anecdotes are related of
the Joy shown by the Austrian prisoners
when they heard that peace had been de-
clared. In one of the provincial towns,
where several hundred of them are, it was
hard to make them believe that such was
the case, but at last they received the Off

declared. They Immediately began shout
