Congress has no power to enforce any plan
of settlement. 1t may suggest this sort OF
compensation for robbery; but even the
territory to be used for that purpose is
none of theirs, and they have no right to

Directing. So that, with the difficulties in
the way, with near two million men in the
field and the revolutionists and eXiles from
all directions working like so many bsa-
vcrs to stir up instructions, it is hardly
possible that the combination in favor OF
peace is strong enough to prevent war.
We copy few extracts from French pa
pers below, to show the prevalent opinion
in Paris. OF all the Paris journals, but
one, the Constitutional, semi official, ex-
presses any belief in the probable success
of the Congress in averting war. That
paper argues that as the Congress will not
| have an "arbitral sentence" to impose-as
in the case there is neither conqueror nor
conquered therefore assent to its terms
would be more readily given than II 1t had
power to dictate absolute sacrifices. 1t
saws that the terrible consequences of re-
iecting the compromise of the Congress will
likely deter the governments from de-
clning to accept it.
From lie Monde, May ?5.
The Intervention modestly assumes the charac-
ter of judicial consultation. Even those minds
which still retain the greatest confidence are struck
with the disproportion existing between The evil
aud the remedy. counsel, III however graclous
terms il may be given, has no chance Of being
heard in the clash OF arms and the noise OF troops
Fastening to their environments.
From the Opinion Rationale, May IS.
So long as nothing occurs in the Conference but
Offering and accepting all will go we'll but the
arises the conversation between the high Powers

ruptly from s,reet to bitter.

From ~ Paris Steele, May %.
After complaining of the slowness Of
diplor,o,y in a matter of such imminent
in .Jrtance admitting of no delay, the
.5i6cle says:
HAS diplomacy, which proceeds with such pru-
perils, has il a means OF appeasins fermentations
and International hate Will it prevent spark
from being communicated to some tram ot powder
and provoking general conhagration!
While the conference uelDerales IL
draws the following picture of the situa-
ton:
1.-The desperate and ruinous situation entailed on
the finances of Austria, Prussia, and Italy, these
500 900 armed men who only await signal to pre-
cipitate themselves on Ithe field Of battle, these
horses, cannon, munitions, and immense stores alb
sorb every day the substance and the savings OF
twenty States. All business is suspended, every in
teres labor is arrested on all points at the
same time Since the moment that these great dis
putes, like 80 many swords Of Damocles, have been
suspended over our heads III not 700 much to esti
mate at two thousand millions OF francs the eX-
penses and damages they have already occasioned.
Every day in Germany, Austria, Prussia and Italy,
more tha fifteen millions thrown into an abyss
from which they cannot by any possibility ever re-
turn
The Steele concludes with the following
Napoleonic paragraph:
"All in Europe suffer under one same evil-the
great iniquity committed in ISIS, which mounts to
The heart and stiles us. Nations are not shared
