of Italy, these are the enemies against
whom we should make war-implacable
war-without truce or mercy. This is
the war to which we invite you. This is
our sacred mission, the mission Of the
10Th century. Let us unite and march
together. This war will be the only one
which since the beginning Of the world
will have deserved we'll Of humanity, and
it will be the last Of all wars. For OPP
preston destroyed, prejudices dissipated,
social justice realised, it can no longer
be conceived that people will dream of

that the Conference will be composed
as follows France - NJ. Drouyn de
Lhuys, President, assisted by the Mar
quis de Bonneville Austria - Count
Mensdorf-PouiIly and Prince Metternich;
Great Britain - Lord Clarendon and
Lord CowIey; the Germanic Confedera-

The Emperor Napoleon has insisted
upon the mediating and armed Powers
being represented by their respective
Ministers for Foreign Affairs, in order to
give more authority to their delibera-
lions and to avoid delays which would
inevitably occur if The Foreign Ministers
of the several Powers were not the first
Plenipotentiaries. The presence of the
Ministers is considered as a favourable
augury.
The Presse believes that the Emperor
Napoleon will preside in person at the
sittings Of the Conference, and hat M.
Drouyn de Lhuys will be the second
Plenipotentiary.
The Vienna journals publish news
from Paris, stating that during the late
financial panic in London Earl Cowlev,
by order of his Government, solicited
the energetic mediation of the Emperor
Napoleon in favor Of peace, and received
from his Majesty the following reply :
'In the years 1859 and 1864 England
opposed my proposals in reference to
the settlement Of the Venetian and
SchlesWig -Holstein questions. Now Eng
land wants peace. | also desire peace,
but as the most favourable opportunities
have been FILTERED away, and as the
conflicting interests have been permitted
to reach a point at which they must
clash, l can no longer assume the respon-
sibility of events"
The Prussians have erected batteries
upon the mountains which extend in the
direction Of Nachod, on the Bohemian
frontier.
A most unexpected piece of news,
says LIE Nord, reaches us from Paris.
Prussia and Italy have secured the effec-
tive assistance of Sweden in case of war,
in exchange for a promise to give up
Northern SchlesWig to Denmark.
A letter from the students of Paris TO
the students Of Germany and Italy APP
pears in the Courier Francois, in which
they pray them not to take part in a
political war which, under the name of
nationaiities, race and balance of power,
masks the ambition and mad pride of a
few oppressors. "The time is come"
they say ''for repudiating these irration-
al ideas and murderous preiudices. Let
us separate ourselves from the old world,
which is falling to pieces. AS Italians,
Germans, French, we have fought long
enough for the glory of these vain titles.
Let us ~repudiate them, and regard our
selves as simple men, and as we recog-
Mise no law but reason, let us recognise
no country but humanity Whoever
wishes to be free, whoever marches with
JUS towards the revolution, is our fellow
countryman, and the violators of justice
who would perpetuate the servitude,
ignorance and misery of peoples are alone

ANOTHER TERRIBLE EXPLOSION
OF NITRO-GLYCERINE.

SAN FRANCISCO, APRIL 16.-A terrible
explosion Of what was supposed to be
nitro, glycerine occurred at a quarter
past 1 O'Clock to-day, near Wells, Fargo
and Co.'S building. The explosion
shook the earth like an earthquake for a
circle of a quarter of a mile. Samuel
Knight, superintendent Of Wells, Fargo
and Co.'S express, died in half an hour
Ofinjuries received. G. w. Bell, super
visor and assayer, was instantly killed.
Mr.. WaIlub, Wells, Fargo and Co.'s as
sayer, Joseph Elliott, John Gallagher,
Frank Webster, and William Justin were
instantly killed Eight bodies were so
mutiIated that they could not be identili-
ed. Louis MLane, Captain EIdridge, Of
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company,
and Judge Hoffman, were bruised and
cut. Felix Lamax, d. Stacy, Jefferson
Taylor, H. Blame, clothing dealer, Cap
tain j. Z. Ayres, Fred Leiz, Frank Morris,
and others were injured, but not fatally.
Some will meyer be identified, as frag-
ments of human flesh, bones and brains
were found nearly two blocks distant.
Montgomery, Sacramento, and California;
streets were lined with broken glass,
scarcely a window for several hundred
feet remaining whole. Wells, Fargo and
Co.'S horses, and everything in the vicin-
ity, animate or inanimate, were blown
into fragments. The damage is estimat-
ed at least at 100000 dollars. William
Ravens, a ~book-keeper of the Pacific
Mail Steamship Company, is ascertained
to be among the killed. The cause Of
the explosion is a mystery.
STEAM COACH FOR ORDINARY RoADs.-
The Journal de J. 4iSne states that the
Minister Of Public Works has awarded a
gold medal Of the first class to Albaret
and Co., of Liancourt, for the construc-
ton of a steam-coach to run on ordinary
roads. This steam-coach lately descend
ed the hill from Laon to the railway
terminus at the rate of five miles an hour,
and afterwards assembled the same hill in
eight minutes with the weight of five
tons. The trial was repeated with so
much success that it is now ascertained
the steam-engine can draw a weight OF
80 tons on an ordinary road at a rate Of
from three to four miles an hour.

An ORoAN "GRouND" A LIrTLB.--Col.
Forney's paper,t the Washington Chronicle,
having become conspicuous and some.
times coarse in attacking the administra:
ton, and fur,hering the fight between
Congress and the President, Mr.. Seward
has stopped %patronizing it-thatis, ceased
to send It as the organ of the state depart
ment to our diplomats and consuls abroad.
This is very natural and legitimate; but
the Chronicle whines, and Mr.. Stevens is
leading off in Congress for a vote to order
the paper continued TO u representa-
tives abroad, that they "may be informed
of the state Of public opinion at home"
which is very silly andapiteful. II Con-
gress wants to let our foreign representa-
tives know what it is-doing, let it order
the Congressional Globe to them. There
would be some propriety in that but to
send them a mere partizan sheet, like the
Chronicle, or any other OF the ordinary
Washington papers, which live on the
patronage they can wheedle out Of the
government, Is only an insult and a bore
to them, and an imposition on the treas
ury. The best thing Congress a do in
the premises is TO prevent any Of such
sort Of sheets being sent abroad at the ex-
pense of the government. The govern
ment should have an official gazette for
keeping its distant representatives inform
ed Of what Is going on at home, into
which no partizanship should enter ; bu,
to send abroad such papers as those at
Washington as representatives of the
American press and organs Of the govern
ment, is s~candalous. It is bad enough to
have the New York Herald known 10 Eu-
rope as the leading newspaper. n have
it merit the reputation, too; but this
other thing is worse. One involves the
character Of our newspapers the other
drags down the government as WE'LL
Springfield (Maa.) Republican.

CARLYLE on THE ENGLISH PEERAog.-
In his recent speech, on the occasion OF
hi, taking the chair Of Lord Rector OF
the Edinburgh University, this great Eng.
lish writer said:
I, is historically true that down to the
time of Charles /. il was not understood
that any man was made q peer without
having a merit in him to constitute him a
proper subject for a peerage. In Charles
Is time il grew to be known or said that,
if a man was BY birth a gentleman, and
was worth 10000, and bestowed his
gifts up and down among courtiers, he
could be made a peer. Under Charles II.
Il went on with still more rapidity, and
has been going on with ever increasing
velocity, until we see the perfect brsdkneck
pace al which they are going now "a
laugh); and now a peeragc is a paltry
kind Of thing to what it was in those old
times.
The character Of the ruling British aris-
tocracy is here pretty well defined, and
that not by a lover or even respecter OF
Republican Governments. According to
this deliberately made statement Of the
Literary Boanerges of Great Britain, a
shopkeeper Of the Nation Of shopkeepers,
who realizes from his sp%eculations so
much as $4,000, leven less, now, it
seems will do,) is eligible" for a peers
place in the realm. Many will recollect
that the greatest swindling banker Of the
age, was offered q name in the peerage.

SAN FRANCISCO DISPATCH.
( IRON THE CARSON APPEAL OF rHrs MORNING.

SAN Francisco, May 23.-No report
from the East to the Associated Press to-
day. By private dispatches we have in
telligence Of the failure Of the London
bank Of Overend, Guerney s. Co. This
was one of, if not the greatest, discount
ing houses in England. and its fall must
involve hundreds Of the small provincial
banks. Various kilograms say the Bank
of England had raised their rate of dis
count to nine and ten per cent, but what
Is most significant Of all, the British Gov
ernment had suspended the Bank Act
which allows the Bank OF England to
over-issue, TO the amount Of five million
pounds sterling.

of land west of Lone Mountain. To-day

few. g..
