Great Britain.

The London Times, in an Editorial on General
Grants assault on Petersburg, credits both sides
with great yalor and winds up, Us follows;
I'VE from this distance, while we deplore tho
sacri6ce cannot but admire the heroism which, for
three months together has animated the combatants
in this deadly grappe, and we cannot but believe
that the American character must gam from the
moral qualities which have been called INTO action.
But as enough has been done for this as for other
PURPOSES We should rejoice 10 SEQ the bellgerenfs
separating with mutual respect whatever may DO
the camor in the streets or churches OF New \ 0rs
We may dcpend upon II that 10 man of Gener-
al Grant army thinks meanly or maciously OF MS
Southern advcrsaries. War, among its other les
SONS teaches foes TO respect each other, and We
sincerely wish that the feelings which must thus
have been generated may lead before long to recon-
citation and 10 peace"
The Inder says:
ave arc able to say, with all calmncss and 40
bcrncss, that the prospects OF speedy peace were
never so promising so almost absolutely certain, as
noI Ii is our sincere belief, that unless some
great disaster befalls the Confederate arms before
the 18th of this month, the Democratic party then
assembling in Convention at Chicago, viii NOM,
nate a peace candidate for tho Presidency, and
within three months thereafter there will DO IN ar
mstice. Ifany selfish hope of c1hausting bothAmer-
lean beigcrents has animated the policy OF Europe,
that policy will have its just reward. Neither the
North nor the South have lost the restorative ener
GIGS OF youth. Both have only just learned their
own strength. btbt-Duf-cltu Anu ultcuIllE ac NV
may be, the day they make an honorable peace win
amiiy and an identical foreign policy the twin
Considerations will be physically and morally
stronger than ever or could have been the undi
yded Uuion, with its matcrialistic tendencies and
It's external strength neutralzed BY an internal
sectional bala.ce of power"
The Belfast riots suhsded on the 18th. There
was a slight outbreak on that day, when tie re-
mains Of one of TIE rioters were removed for BURIAL
but the presence of the military prevented anything
serious. Subsequently tranquility prevailed
throughout the town. and the military and con-
stabuary commenced TO withdraw. On Friday
the l9th. however, the noting was resumed with
IN ibated firy. Four constables and about q dozen
civilians received gun-shot wounds, some OF which
were serious.
An influential meeting was held, attended by
both Protestant and Catholic gentlemen. and dcpl-
tatons wcrc appointed 10 visit the disturbed uis-
trics and reason with tie TOiers, and D!ll5 IAein
10 "a calmor and better feeling. .,.
The town continued 10 DO patIolled BY the MILL
tGU. c,
Some disturbances also occurred at Cork, where
a mob paraded the streets, but the police hrod "a
yolcy of blank cartridges into them, and they scat
tered and fled N cycry direction.
Slight riotng is also reported at Dundalk ana
