Theprpbahlecourseof events which is suggested to our minda is the imrpedi- »te intervention of the European powers to'con- «|ndea treaty of peace! /'Al'CtjngTOsS of diplo mats will probably be called at once, and a atrong effort made to terminate .hostilities which will hereafter, result in mere destruction, wjtli- aat any possible good. The system of the Eu wqpean world cannot affo'rd/toepoliticrff cxtuic- fibn of France, nor can civilization tolerato tlije iestrnciion of Paris, which is itself the centre oZmodem civilization.

Prussia will probably demand pay ment for the expenses of the war, and the ces sion of Alsace 'and Lorriffiie. If she is wise she will stop hero, and leave to the French people fits embarrassing task of reorganizinglheir own government.-' jBot it is mQre than probable that Jhmssia will also insist on tryiog her hand at Men eh Reconstruction, and find here a, more difficult job than the war itself.\ \. j Oar-dispatches, in Saturday morning's edi* taah r left us in more hope that the Frenoh'oon- t&tioa had improved a little; butit now; appears Sheathe most discouraging view we ever took of this .war was altogether too hopefal' fot tho Stench. Before tho first gun was fired, we did npt, as the, reader will bear witness, see how the Mkencb.Empsrorcould possibly win.thejndis- ymnnffln nphiprnmrTit of reputation- and glory Stotu the contest, and it had not progressed a wroek beforo it was apparent that the Prussians Sad stocked their hands and held every winnipg «■* ii The Prussians have been fixing np for the war for two years,'and have hadtko address Acre tho initiative at last upon tlrifFrencli Em peror, who found, too late, that htf had nothing; Sereadiness. From tho first to The last gun,’ iti &as been a steady triumph for the Prussians, whose superior numbers enabled them to ca^ry their own strategy through without material in terruption. No people aver displayed greater jjpUantry than the French liavo done, but their Bart successes have only been d’p’pnrtnt^ net real. They were ruthlessly brushed aside out of the reed of tho invaders, and when _the efforts of Steir government swelled their numbers to a joint at all dangerous, the enemjyfnrned upon fBoaa in overwhelming force—cutoff their com- aauxdcations and left them no.ellernativo bat surrender. ^ i The war opened with the so-called French victory at S’.iarbruck, which was, in truth, a mere Prussian trap, in whichluck only prevented tbe Emperor, Prince Imperial and Mench from boing caught.
