The Polish Revolution

F rom t e Loncon Times, July 25. The six propositions for an accommodation betweoa Ilussia and Poland, to wliioh England hag made herself a party, have come upon us with all the abruptneas of a surprise. ïhey wero produced by Lord Paluierston to the IIou.se of üomtöons without pressure, and appaiently frorn a wish to gratiry the not unnatural curiosity of his audience. We are so little in the habit in this country of being taken into the confidence of the government during negotiations with foreign powers that we feel some embarrassment in availiug ourselvea of the liberty of critieism which is thus offered, But, shouU! these overturesbe rejected, what is our position ? We are acting in concert with France, hut with different views and different interests. We both wish to save Poland, . but there the agraemewt between ua nccessarily ends. Wc have no wish to reconuer, or to see France reconquer, the frontier of the Ilhine; no desiro to take advantage of the prcseut weakness of Prussia, oaused by the infatuated folly of her king and his ministers ; no wish to overthrow the balance of European power by hurablingor erippling Kussia. Wc havo nothing to gain by war; we havo overy reason to wish for peaoe, ïhero may, of courae, be soiaething behind all this which would, if wo knew it, remove the diffieultios we feel. We have been informed what our own course is; wc do not aceurately know the course of France or of Austria. This state of affairs appears to us f uil of danger, but thero may be means of escapingfrom it, without war and without disoredit, which we, with the imperfect infonnation we poisess, have failed to apprehend.
