Telegraphs have always been classed among the
chief apostles peace and peaceful progress ana II
will, therefore, be regarded a remarkable coinci
dence that on the first day of our teegraphc commu
Mon with the Old World we receive the news that
treaty of peace has been signed between Austria and
Prussia The information conveyed by the telegraph
is of course meager, but 1t is sufficiently definite 10
leave no doubt that Austria has acceded 10 all the
chief demands Of Prussia.
We are not yet fully informed about all these de-
mands, but we know. from official and semi-oficlai
declarations Of the Prussan Government that the most
essential condition Of peace is the withdrawal oil
Austria from tho German Confederation, which VIII
now be reconstructed under the sole and undisputed
lead of Prussia. II is equally certain that Prussia Will
now keep the two Duchies of SChleswg and HolSten'
whether as Prussan province or under the semoiahce
Of neutrality-suspicious. remains to be seen. MOREOVER
semi-ofcia Prussian papers have declared IN accord
snce with the opinion expressed by Louis Napoleon IN
hs letter to Drouyn dc Lhuys, that Prussia must In
sis ON having the western and the eastern portions OF
the kingdom permanently connected. We have to wait
for later accounts to know if this recticaon of from
tier Is to be effected By Of annexation or by ex
change of provinces. We are, on the other hand, as
-
hernia and Morayia, and as the ground of this
restriction the nonGerman character of their popula
ton is adduced. Such ground seems to suggest
that Prussia might desire the annexation, or at least
the separation from Austria, of those provinces. which
are purely German as Upper and Lower Austria
and Salzburg. /. is, however probable that having
obtained the chief end Of her AMBITION Prussia VIII
not insist on demanding any Austrian territory, but
leave the fate of the Germans Of Austria to be decided
BY the future.
However this question may be settled, the triumph
of Prussia is complete. Whatever thenominal relation
of the smaller German States in the reconstructed
Confederation may be, virtually the new Con-
federation, with its population OF over 4oooo'OOo
of people will be identical with Prussia, which hence
forth will not be second, in power and influence, to
any of the great European Powers

We nave heard hat the friends Of Jefferson Davis
profess their ability to overthrow the testimony Of the
witness Lewis f. Bates Bates it will be remembered,
swore that when the dispatch Of Gen. Breckenridge,
announcing the assassination Of Lincoln, was received
by Davis, be remarked: swell General don't
know that If were done at ALL it were better that it
were we'll done, and II the same had been done TO
Andrew johnson, the beast, and Secretary Stanton,
the job would DO completed" Dsyis's confdants
believe can be proved that Bates was not about at
the time the telegram from Breckenridge was re-
ceiyed. They assert that on hearing the news he,
singuIarly. made no remark. Both versions have
points Of curiosity. One thing, however, is not dc.
nied-that Davis was in proper person at Bates's
house in Charlottesville the day Of the Dispatch
IT. as it appears, the Investigating Committee have
established the fact that the Secret Service Fund Of
the Confederacy was absolutely in the custody of
Davis. they have made sure Of their first point. That
plot was entertained TO blow up Washington; that
Blackburn the smallpox Borgia, was contracted
with to burn the Mississippi steamers; that con-
spiracy to burn New-York was paid for and set on
FOOT and that the agents of these several enterprises
were all found In neighborhood with tho managers
of the assassination, is proof presumptivs that
the agency which embraced such desperadoes as boat
burners, hotelburners, and smallpox propsgandists
had also its paid assassns. HDavis encouraged his
subordnates to license the burning Of peaceful Cities
he was no better than desperate himself If he was
responsible for tho inhuman treatment Of our prison
ers, who Is ready to doubt that be was the most
wretched Of sssassins' But plausible showing does
