A WHITE man in St. Louis became enraged
at negro and was about to strike him with
brickbat, when the colored man fell back
upon his reserved rights " Look yere,
white man, don't you do it, sab. I'd have
you know that when you strikes me, you

this was so-and there is good reason to believe

the South which will release both her

the task OF q further reimbursement OF terrific

in the East, may be accomplished by Con-

such q result is an exceedingly remote posi-
bility. And until thorough readiustment is
effected, it is vain to hope for permanent peace.
We do well then not to take 1t too soon for

the warlke preliminary TO an era OF pacific
settlements, when each nation shall peaceahly
surrender whatever territory its neighbors may
decree the alienation of, in an international
Convention. 1t will be hopeful time when il

bodily and at once to the Peace Society, even at
the invitation OF so Deaceably minded poten-
tate as the ruler of France.

Peace or War in Europe?
From the Worid.

from he WOTtd.
Should Prussia, flushed with the splendid re.
suits of brief campaign which has wreathed
anew the laurels of the great Frederic and of
Blucher about her commanders and her armies,
now accept the peace which Austria prodeIs to
her by the hand of Napoleon III, the war of
1866 may be known in history as the "seven
days' war; The "Seven Years. War; made
Frederic II immortal. The hrst Napoleon gave
the name OF the "seven weeks war; to the cam
paIen OF 1914 in France. The "seven days
war; began with the hrst COLLISION between the
armies of Prussia and Austria, in Bohemia on
the 26th of June, and ended, If ended II now
shall prove to be, with the overwhelming vic
tory OF the Prussians at Sudowa, on the Sd OF
July, 1866. The suddenness and completeness
OF this victory has taken all Europe by surprise,
and the accounts OF it which reached us on Sun
day Dy the NO00 SCOtldn are confused AMI be-
| wlldereG by the emotion which the simple
| tidlngs had awakened both in England and in
| France.
Before we proceed to speculate on the probable
| issues OF this great military event, and of the
| diplomatic action by which 1t was immediately
| followed, let US endeaYor TO educe from the
| kilograms which have reached us some clear
! idea OF the scene of the decisive conflict and of
| its immediate military effects. The storming of
| Gltschin by the Prusslans, which allowed Prince
| Frederic Charles, al the head of the Army of the
| Elbe, and the Crow Prince, at the head of the
Army Of Siesa, to unite their forces in the heart

under cover of the ioItTesses of Josephstadt and
Konigsgratz on the eastern bank of that river.
Leaving Prague and all North western Bohemia
to their ate, the Austrians accordingly seem to
have pushed IN haste from Gltschin east wardly
and southeastwardly towards the river. The
Prussians pressed hard, however, on their re
treating enemy; and after reaching the small
town OF Horzitz, which lies about fifteen miles
[ to the east of Gitschin, the army Of Benedek
striking thence southwardly for the Elbe, wal

The Peace RepOrts-Much of the Specula-

From the Times
Those who have become sangnine over the
immediate prospect of peace in Europe, may do

TO give cause for a kind of hopeful expectancy
on the part of those who regard war-ill wars
as wrong, as inimcal TO social and political pro.
press The most thoroughly armed aud most
doggedly obstinate powerin Europe has suffered a
succession OF terrible reverses at the hands of
her Northern rival, Driven by the RAPID and
overwhelming concentration of the Prussian
forces from Holstein, SaXony, and Bohemia,
Austria has, no doubt lost alike in military
PRESTIGE and material strength enough to
discourage power OF less tenachy, en-,
durance and pride. And when on the back OF
these successive and overwhelmingly sudden
reverses, there comes the news that Veneta
has been voluntarily surrendered 70 France. for
whatever disposition she may be prepared To
make OF it-it is not unnatural that lOokers-On
at distance should rush TO the conclusion tha
Austria is iairly and finally beaten, and that the
dawn OF peace Is at hand. But at tue same time
various facts may as well be borne in mtnC
which do not so exactly square with tht
notion OF an immediate termination OF hostlli

which he was AIMING, though as q regular for
tress no longer formidable against the artillery
of our times, is considered by military men TO
be the finest defensible position which exists on
the circuitous course OF the Elbe, from its
sources in the BieseD-gebIge, the mountain
frontier between Siiesia and Bohemia, to its
junction with the Iser at Brandelso and with
the rushing Moldaun at Melnik. But Konigs
gIatz the army oil Marshal Benedek was not
destined inject TO reach. It was aSsalled at
Sudowa bv the Pfussians, with the organized
impetuosity which has marked ali their opera.
tOns in this brief but extraordinary campaign;
and after a furious and sanguinary battle,
lasting through the long summers day, was
utterly deieated, with loss, as the teegrams
report TO us, SO tremendous as practically to
disorganize and paralyze it, either for offensive
or defensive purposes. Field Marshal Lieutenant
Won GablenZ. who but the other day commanded
the Austrian lorce in the Condominium of Aus
tria and Prussia over the Duchles conquered
from Denmark, was sent to the Prussian camp
on the next day with propositions for an arnis-
tice; and the court OF Vienna, on the same day,
invoked the intervention OF the Emperor of the
French to secure peace, Offering to surrender
Venetia asthe price OF that intervention
Severe as the losses of Austria in this "short,
sharp, and decisiver struggle have been, a treaty
OF peace between Francis joseph and Victor
Emanuel would liberate at once for action
against Prussia an army nearly or quite as large
as that which has Just been beaten In Bohemia;
and it must be admitted that the step now
taken by the Government of Francis Joseph
has introduced new and very serious com
pllcaton INTO the tangled medley of European
politics. Italy declared war against Austria
avoWedly on the ground that the Austrian
occupation Of Veneta was a standing menace
20 the peace and unity OF Italy. Austria
now surrenders Venetla to the potentate
whose uncle gave Venetia to the Austrian
crown sixty years ago. and who has himself
done more for Italian independence than all
other living men. On what pIetext can Italy
still continue to array herself in arms against
Austria? Yet Italy owes 10 Prussia the oppor-
tunIty of action which has resulted in the sur
render OF Venetia, and if Prussia heJitates to
accept the alnistice and eventual peace now
tennered to her, can Italy honOraDly desert her
ally, and retire from the conflict content with
the GROWING advantages which peace now holds
ont to herself?
No more interesting political situation has
arisen in our times; and, exciting as the war
news from Europe has been during the past fort.

THE REspoNsIBILlrY OF GOVERN.


The RESPONSIBILITY OF GOVERN
MENT OFFIcIALs.-Joseph H. Mad
dox has Commenced a suit against
the Secretary of War for alleged
false Imprisonment, and lays his
damages at one hundred thousand
dollars. This is doubtless a choice
case Of what the rebel sympathizers
in our midst denounced during the
war under the general names of ar
bitrary arrests, abuse of power, dc
We said at the time that all the noise
raised by the rebel organs on this
subject was only made to embarrass
government operations by invoking
popular prejudice against the gov
ernment on every possible point 1t
will be seen, we doubt not, in the de-
cision of this suit, that we were right
in that view. In the cases that the
rebel press in this city most loved
to parade, and that were used in
England to show our despotic spirit,
we do not believe it can be shown
that the government officials trans
cended their just powers. Still, the
courts are the proper places to try
these points. All officials are re-
sponsible in their private fortunes
for acts illegally done, and decisions
against them, given upon full view
of all the evidence. would be effec-
tual constitutional safeguards.
