The Constitution quotes from the Philadel- phia Press to show that Forney is condemned out of his own mouth in his assaults upon the President on the subject of slavery in the Ter- ritories. The Constitution argues that the disap- pointed aspirants who have turned traitors to the De:tocratic party, and set themselves up a3 “leaders,” entirely overrate their own im- portance and infimence. The Intelligencer speaking of the late trial at Charleston, S. 0., expresses some surprise that the Echo should have been condemned as # slaver and her cargo sent back to Africa, under the slave-trade law, and still her crow he acquitted of all blame in the nintter. It however. cherishes the hope that the acquittal as.on secount of, some defect or insufficiency in the nature of dégres of th8 etidénes offered on the part of the prosecution, and not on ac- count of any disrespect of tho South Caroli- nians for the laws of the United States. WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. i pels Tas Evrorgzaxs Wan Quastiox.—We have almost entirely abstained from publishing com- aments of our own upon the question of the pros- pect of “* war in Europe’’—the theme just now being perhaps most discussed by American Jouraalists—beesuse really feeling incompetent to elucidate it, from lack of knowledge of the facts that would enable us to shed light upon it. Nevorthless, we recognize its manifest importance to the business future of the United States, and sedulously seek information on the subject. Some of the New York city journals— New York being in hourly direct communica- tion with the continent, and nearly half the population of the city being European born, a considerable proportion of them, too, being Persona of more than average attainments and information conceriing Earopean politics—dis- ¢uss the subject in a comprehensive and well- informed manner. Ontside of Ne York, the American newspaper speculations upon it seem to be for the most part mere idle speculative opinions, written to supply ‘\copy"’ for waiting eompositors. We have no desire to speculate on the theme as explained above, and therefore being desi- Yous to keep the Star up with the progress of the question, we resort to the columns of the Courier and Enquirer to republish what ap- pears to be thé moet reliable and intelligent synopsis of the present status of the subject matter—as follows: Tus Prospects ov War ix Ecrore.—The lntest news regarding the Peace Congress, wonld “ead to the conclusion that war is inevitable. ‘Phe ropesition to submit the questions at issue to a ‘ongress was not received very warmly by Aus- tia. It came from a source, Russia, which nat- urally led Austria to regard it wi suspicion, especially as it was so Promptly acceded to by France. There has been at no time any good reason for believing the Congress. should, it as- semble, would produce any sitisfactory resulta, since the basis insisted upon by Au was at variance with all that France bas contended for. ‘This basis, it will be remembered. was that none of the treaties of 1515 should be discussed. Now as Louis 2 er has asserted that he has esponsed the cau Italy, and as all the earnest advocates of this cause declare that not! s be obtained so long as Austri: ntinues her dom- ination in Italy, it is manifest that no arrangement an be entered into for maintaining peace, so Tony as the treaties of 1815 are to remain unimpaired. The safety of the Italian cause requires that Austrian domination in italy should cease, an Austria, as yet, is by ne means prepared to yield what was conceded to ber by the abovementioned treaties. It is known that ske has not these treaties, aud all that the Peace Congress could decide would be that she should hereafter fulfil them to the letter. Granting that she should agree to do this, that she should no longer occupy territories in which she has no rights, that she should evacuate all the fortresses which she had no right to build, that she should concede to some of the States what she has unjustly denied them, and that she should at once desist fron punishments which have branded shame, she would yet be entitled to a certain con- trol over the affairs of the Italian Provinces incon- sistent with the demands now made by them. When Louis Bee sponge promised his assistance to Victor Emanuel, be lighted a torch which will naine with not be extinguished until the Austrian rule in | Italy shall be either exterminated or rendered more firm than it now is. This is the question now to be settled. Austria says that she will not recede from the treaties of 1-15, and France, in the name of Italy, asks her to withdraw entirely from the Italian Provinces 2 No one doubts the willingness of the French Emperor to engage ina war with Austria, We know the vast warlike preparations he has becn making for months past. and it now appears that he has only been | alpen sending troops into Piedmont by the fact that ere they could reach there Austria would crnsh that State with an overwhelming force. It is now also apparent that he will have more to contend with than he at first supposed. The greater part of German rapidly coming to the assistance of Austria. Th: country has succeeded in making the Germans Velieve that its safety and their own are, in the wesent state of European aff: inseparable. She has told them that the blow ainied at her will reach them—that should she be subdued the war would not then cease. but would be carried into other of Germany. A feeling Ditterly hostile to the French Emperor is already rapidiy spread- i the smaller German States, and evidences of this are given at the theatres and other public places whenever an opportunity is offered Prussia has throughout the present ditticulty maintained her neutral: and has endeavored to prove to Germany that it is notat all indispensable to its safety that Austria should be su ped in her conduct towards Italy; and yet the stand she has taken on the side of Austria in relation to the ad. mission of Piedmont into the proposed Con; Teas, proves that her feelings are, after all, with the Austrien cause. As it has been the aim of Louis Napoleon to induce Prussia to remain neutral_a. as he bas undoubtedly belfeved she would do so, it was natural she should be somewhat gov- erved by the influence of FE: land. the step she has just taken must convince Lim of what her fu- ture course must be. Viewing the present state of Enro; , therefore, from whatever point we may, {t woutt ——_ that war is but a question of time. Louis > apoleon caunot, and certainly will not, abate any of his demands. He is anxious for a tight, and is well ed for it. On the other hand, the Einperor of Austria lz determined to maintain the position he has taken, Is equally well Prcperett for war, y restrained from pg Ae accounts be true. is on: making an axgressive movemeut by the ua sions of his Ministers.

The contending parties will bave so much at stake. that the war will be one of the most bloody yet foughton the plains of Europe eu Sow on THE Movsraixs.—Among the most beautiful and striking sights we ever beheld was the appearance of the Biue Ridge range of mountains in Madison, Orange, and Rappahan- nock counties, Va., yesterday, from & point in the immediate vicinity of Culpeper Court- House, from whence they (the mountains) were visible as far as the eye can reach—say for a continuous stretch of thirty miles. On Friday night and Saturday, while it was raining on the Plains, a violent snow storm raged upon that more elevated region—a real mid-winter storm in the quantity of snow falling. The entire clearing up of Sunday morning first revealed the extent of this remarkable fall of snow, ox- Anibting Wie peaks, the gulches, the little plat ov Lavras | Post Osrics | | him. teaus, the crags, and the gorges of the Blue Ridge. with all their points of irregularity and interest standing out s0 boldly as that though twenty miles off from the beholder, the out- lines of each one of them were £0,distinctly marked as that he was almost cheated inte the belief that they could be but a mile or so from This charming picture of Nature’s freak—a heavy fall of snow near the opening of the sea- son of flowers, the first of May—was rendered richer and more beautiful by the appearance of the cultivated fields, streams, forests, and patches of wood that laid between ‘the ridge” and the point at which we stood. The deep green of the thousands of acres of waving wheat, the derker brown of the thousands of scres of Piedmont red-land propared for the reception of the corn crop, the variegated tints of the different fruit and forest trees in bloom and leafing, and tho rushing waters of the vvollen rivulets in sight, the colora of all of them rendered more iutense, as in the case of the snow on the mountains, by the brilliant glare of tho brighest sunshine of the season from a cloudless sky, together formed features of the picture making it far more charming than mortal handsean paint. Such a scone, of all seenes, was eminently suggestive of the great event of which the day was the anniver- sary—wonderful indeed. in all its attributes, and full of promise of blessings to man. Frou Arrica.—Acvices have been rcocived here-from the north coast of Africa, to the 17th of March. The U.S. ship Dale had spent a week at Goree—a French fortified island—and exchanged salutes with the frigate Joan of Arc and the fort. Threo French steam war vessels wore in the harbor. Th§Dale departed on the 16th of Marc’ for Porto raya. The officers and crew ‘were iw telorable health. Lieut. K. L. Wind«'r is to %e transferred to the U. 8. ship Vinecen nes, at Porto Praya, about the Ist of April. 4"he Dalo was twenty-four days making the voage from Montovia to Gores, only 900 miles; ce ttainly an ocean for steam, and not canvas. C alms and light winds are the charac- teristics of African cruising. enaEES TS A Mistax 3.—The telegraphic announcement of the arriy.W of the U.S. steamer Fulton at New York, trom Montevideo, on Thursday night was, it seems, a mistake. The steamer Fulton, of the Iavre line, was the vessel that arrived there, and the mistake occurred from the similarity of names. The arrival of the U. S. steamer ]’ulton, however, as well as all the other vessels of the Paraguay fleet, may be looked for at an e arly day. = Se Ssvor Mata.—T.

Sardinia persists in refusing to disarm, unless Austria does so likewise; but the latter cannot possibly suspend her Preparations for war so long as the Emperor of the French continues bis arma- ments. The Paris lent of the Times hints that the refusal of Piedmont to disarm is made at the instigation of France.
