The ques- tion of ablecedents was ruled out by the Court, as 4 poltt not pertinent to ine existing issue; and, bowing to ibet decieio::, avd being governed merely by an abstract Sonsideration of tae wroug intlicted on the husband, we felt fustified in demanding that tbe person on taial for wil- fui murder shonid not be convicted of that crime. The question ef antecedents, it wii be remembered, was dis- cussed in whispers; and, to known to the counsel for the prosecut.on and ‘the jud; what condition of past habits and sssociations coula have bee proved on behaif of the people against the prisoner, ‘as tending to illustrate the effect which & disclogure of his wife's infidelity would haye been likely to produce on each & mind, abe suppression of this important evidence, we believe, in view of the wide publicity given to the trial both in this country and Kurope, was for the advantage of our national character and in the best interests of morality. The sisyer was taken up by the press of England as a model, though a fomewhat truculent one, of delicate mari- tal sensiniiiy; be became a sort of representative husband for the Union, and ag such owed a duty not only to him- self but to the circle of devoted friends who at once placed themselves in the attitade of both endorsing and lauding his action.

But now this representative husband has cifn uz ano- ther leeson in domestic morals, and bag tiereby wrown fully ag much light on his own antecedents as could haya been dinciosed bad the damning evidenva to which the coungel for the peeple alluded in opening the case, been shouted on the house tops instead of having been whispered into the blushing ear of an octogenarian jadge. Haviog given seducere the lesson of how blind a husband can be under certain circumstances, and how terriby he can avenge his wrong under others, this meds] husband now proclainis to all wives that no maiter how abaadoued they may be in habits, morais, taster, and practicos; no mater how publicly and shamelessly they court the corn of black menisia and the pimp opulation of u degraded neighborhood, no matter how they steep themselves in the infamous hypocrisy and diegrace of. receiving & para- mour in their husvand’s very bed; no matter with wnat effrontery they may be able to write down under dictation all tbe odious details whioh could gratify a Prorient curiosity; no mstter bow clearly they may prove, by forgetting the dead man ina moment and even fawn- ing on Lis slayer, that it wes lust and not love which led to their fall; t@ Matter by how many acta and agencies they are enabled to repel trom themselves ali sympathy, all respect, all decent sentiment, all¢oieration, even at tie hands of the most tolerant. When ail these matters have been proved against them, and are of resord, the husband will still take tacm back to bis bed and ombrace, still call them by the honored name of wife, and, to the best of his bility, demand for them recoguitiou ind acknow- ledgement in the circle of American matrons, Such ig the eecond morat lesson given to us by this new expounder of the Focial code, and we commend it to the uttention of al! those who took interest in the trial before this last developement was made, which throws,-we con. fees, a strangely euspicious light over the whole transac. tion, [From the Di i ‘The reported reconciliation between the Hon.

But thoee wno stood by him have a’so a right to relieve themsecives {rom the respousi- bility of bis action, In this community tne lamented Key bad mepy warm and devoted friends, Knowing him, as did, intimately and weil, it was to me a cource of deep re- gret that hus life should have been sacrificed. An acoom- plished gentleman, a five Jawyer, a genisi, social and sin- cere friend, it was an extraordinary evidence of the popu- lar feeling fn favor of Mr. Sickies, that in the very city where Mr. Key bad resided all the active years of his life, ana where his supporters were most enthus- astic, the blow that struck him to the earth should havo been forgiven by a jury and applauded by the people. Hence, in everything that bus appeared iu my correspoad- ence .y Lam happy to say in everytning that has ap pet in The Press), pains were taken to avoid the slightest remark tbat could be regarded as a reflection upon Philip Barton Key. It did not become mo daring the trial to diecues the point-whether or not Mrs. Sickles | induoed and accepted Mr. Key’s attentions—whether she was more his victim be was here—and however much a different feeling may be iogpired by the reconcili- ation between herself and her husband on the part of ‘othere, at the present time Iam not dispored to discuss this covsideration under the new aspect of the question. The motive which controiied much of the feeling in favor Mr. Sickles, grew out of the fact Mr. Key had accepted the hogpitalities of Mr. Sickles, and that while enjoying these hospitalities, together with the confidence of Mr. Sickles, had betrayed bis honor, and this was regarded by all gentlemen as’ a crime never to be expisted or forgiven. But it is impossible to depy that the cago has sesumed new importance on ac- count of this reconciliation. It was made a public mater by the political position of the parties and their lozal con- nections, and yes may be well aesured that it will oon. tnue to be fea public matter, especially in this com- munity. All the feeliny for poor Key has peen revived, ail the grief euppressed by the verdict in favor of Btr. Sickles has been called forth anew by the forgivencas ex- tended by Mr. sickies to his wife, and Heaven knows where it willend. If Mrs. Sickles was hereeif guilty be- fore the death of Key she is guilty still, and if sne can be forgiven uow Key ought to have been forgiven in Februa- ry. It wili be a long time before another such acquittal Will take piace as that awarded by the late jury in this ease. It will bea em 7 ume before an American court and American citizens will again allow themselves to be con- trolled by a one aided etatement to applaud the blow that sends a fellow creature into eternity with all his sins upon his head. Believe me that I am not complaining that Mr. Sickles should have ‘taken his wife back to his borom. In the spirit of Christian charity this was probably well enough, and, however much the taste of the thing og be questioned, I can only ro- gret, or the sake of Mr. Key, that he had not mooths ago agreed to forgive his wife, und to spares humen life, which under the circumstances, as now developed, ovgbt to have been spared. Those who stood by Mr. Sickles in Washington (aod they number some of our first citizens) were in no single instance the enemies of Mr. Key, and never allowed themaelvos to indulge in as- faults upon the character of the deceased. They have been placed ina most peculiar position by the reconcilia tion, avd fee) extremeiy sensitive in regard to it, and I think I exprees prey nearly thelr feelings in ‘tho re marks I bave made. Of course, they are constantly re- minded by those who took the other side of the contro. verry that they did wrong in taking their stand; and in 9 community like thie, where the tregedy and the trial oth took place, you may conceive what sort.of disputes this condition of public opinion gives rise to. Atl loan tay in conclusion is, that I hope no further troubic will grow out of this affatr. {From the Chicago Times.] MR. AND MRS. SICKLES. ‘Tho fact that has just been made |.nowa throughout the Jength aud breadth of the land, of the reunion of Mr, and Mre Sickles in marital relatione, ig made the subject of mvc) severe comment in mapy of the newspapers. We had hoped that the public attention would never again be called to this case. The country had rfett of scandal while it was legitimately before the eyes of the people. As for curselves, we long bofore the trial of Mr. Sickics at Washington closed, acquired an indifference to the de tails as brought out; and we dout not that nearly every- body else did thesame, The manner in which the trial wer couducted was scarcely fee diegueting than tde caro {teelf was revolting. And now we bave ali tho fact, and girenmetances of hbidinous ecquaiptancesbips, harrowing auspicious, homicide, ant so forth, brought up freeh to mind by the tronepiring cf still another fact. We will aot charac- terize the living togethar again of Mr. and Mrs. Sickles in terms of hareb denuncistion. This no ons, not iromed! ately intererted, nasa right todo. And besides, we are pot clear but tbat it ts the best course the unfortunate (to use no stronger expreseion) couple couldtake It is cor. tainly what we bave always expected would occur. Atall events, its nobody's business but their own. We regret, therefore, the dirposition manifested by a large portion of the prees, to deal sarcaem en the head of Mr. Sickles for this act. Itis better for the public morals that he, aud Particularly his wife, be tet alone. Yachting. THE OCEAN REGATTA ABANDONED—THE ANNUAL RENDRZVOUS OF THE SQUADRON, RTO.

The Berlin correepondeat of the London Times gives an outline of the peace propositions of Prussia, which seems also to be known in France, ag the main fvatures are adverted to by the Paris correspondent of the London Ad- vertiser, who says King Leopold is desirous of proposing to the diplomacy of Europe that Venetia must be a separate independent State. The erection of Venice into a eepurate kingdom he deems advisable; he even proposes to effect thie setulement with the consent of Austria, which he en gages to obta‘n if the crown be bestowed upon the Austrian Archduke Maximilian, brother to the Faperor of Austria, and the husband of King Leopold’s daughter, the Princess Charlotte. The London Times correspondent says of the Prince of Pruseia that, although he baz never given proof of stategic ability, he is nevertheless impressed with the idea, go Prevalent among crowned heads, of being a great captain, and his utmost ambition isto command as a generalizsimo the army of the Germanic Confederation.

SIEGE OF PESCHIERA BY SARDINIA—HIS- TORY OF THE FORTRESS. [From the London Post, July 5.] Peschiera, we are informed, is vow completely invested by the Piedmontese troops, That measure has peen anti cipated as the pext and moet navural step to be taken by the Ailes, a8 the introduction to those strategical opera- tions by which they are destined, we trust, to become ere long the masters of the Quadrilateral. The name of the fortress at the southorn extremity of the Lago di Garda not be 80 familiar to our readers ag the names of many other spots celebrated in Italian warfare; yet it is nnected with the most spirit etirring associations of me- ‘al and modern history, and a chronicle of tta succes- | sive sieges would be found to reflect very curiously both the epirit engendered by tho pative factions and the con fiicts orisipg from the foreign invesious of Northern italy.

Smr—On the 24th of June the Imperial Guard was en- camped, the two divisions of infantry at Montechiaro, tue eight batteries of artillery and the division of cavary at Camenedolo. Your Majesty ordered it to set out from those two posi tions and repair to Custigiione. ‘The infantry etarted trom Montechiaro at five in the morning; the artiuery left Castenedolo at the same hour, and rejoined the left of the two infantry divisions at Moa techiaro about a quarter to seven o'clock. ‘The cavalry division was not to start till nine in the morping from Castenedolo, and march freely, 80 2s to spare the horses, About six in the morning a woll supported fire of artil- lery was opeped against the enemy, Wuo bad takev up a porition beyond Castiglione, and bad resolved on coming to an epgegement. Your Majesty then ordered the Guard to hasten its movement. The order was insiantly transmitted to the cavalry to set out before the hour appointed; by eign: the mea were able to mount, apo about hulf past uine they arrived on the place of combat, woere they were placed under the orders of Marshal sicMahon, accoraing to your Majesty's command. e two infantry divisions of the Guard had advanced from Castiglione slong the road of Guiddizzolo; but your Majesty baving judged tbat the decigive point of the baitie Was the carrying of the position of Soiferine, vigo- rousiy defended by the enemy, geve orders for the Guard to ceflect to the left, £0 a8 10 find itself in a position to support the attack of Marshal Baraguay d’Hiliiers upon Solfe;ino, ‘The aivision of Voltigeurs, commanded by General Camou, was placed in jise, deployed bebind the First corpe, and, at five buucred metres behind, Mellivet’s divieion wag formed in couble column, with an interval between.

Theee battalions then occupied the ridges of the posi- tion Del Monte, and were eupvorted there by the borse- artillery of the Guard, who cane and formed th-mselves into s battery on tbe Cavrians biga road. The enemy foon attempted to regain this important position, and the mail number of troops on this poiut would not Dave enabled it to be preserved bad not your Majesty, taking things into accurate account, immoviaisy sent orders to the grenadier division, commenced by Gererai Molncet, to support the batteries of the Guard aud Maneque’s brigade This order, promptiy executed by General Mol Iinet, enabied Maneque’s brigade and woe artillery of the Guard rot only to preserve the position momentarily threatened, but also to gain ground in advance, by suoces- sively carry ing the evemy’s positions.

THE RUSSO-FRENCH DIPLOMACY TOWARDS GERMANY, {From the London Post, July 5.) Count Walewek: has, we hope, eettied the controversy regercing righte and lisbuities of Germany tn tho Italian war waged between France and Austria. Privce Gortecbabct! po: long ago laid down the maxim, in a cir- culsr to the Russian representatives at the German Courts, that the federal organization of Germany was purely de- fepsive, beth by its and in its objects. Totnis asser- ucn Barou Beust, tne Minister of Saxony, issued @ repiy which would have been tolerable for its a of ‘9 bad case hud it not somewhat officiousiy aime to stand forward ab a round robin trom the German governments. M. De Walewski bas now iseued a circaiar to the French representatives at all foreign capitais which takes ap tne pot in cispute between M De Gortechakoff and M. De Beust, aro serves as arejoinder Tbe chref merit of this decument is that of showing that any aliernative between the complete separstion ct Lombercy from the Germanic Uonteceration, and Ws complete inclusion within it, would be rea'ly impoeeible. Eitner Germany is bound to gua- rentee the integrity of the extra-German territories of her o«n princes, or she is not. If she be so bound, then such territories enter practically into the Confederstioa; becuuse im time of wer, the whole obiigation of the Ger- Tab body politic ‘owards its own component States coa- Sis'B in making war ic ther support apd defence. If sha 4 not bound, then Lombardy t¢ bo more Germamthan any other country ‘s German. Now, no one pretends that Germany 1s bound to enter upon war; and, with the obligation, the right of muking war, ins federal bovy ike the German, ceases also. This i@ M De ‘a'gument. “Neuber her rights nor her in “ere at stake; but in mixing oereeit up in the covilict ebe wouie Gepart from the lie marked out for ber by wenues.’’ This is precisély what Prince Gortachskof! pointed ont as covrtitutiog the purely de‘en- tive bature of the organizeiou of Germacy. Oa the olber band, M. De Waleweki snows that the pnacpic thus laid cown in the Russian Chancery caunot be ia- vaded without goiog the length of uniting Lombardy with the German Coufeceracy. ‘Such a doctrine,” he says (a8 that of thé Saxon government), ‘would tead, in (act, to nothing leee than the jncorporaticn of the nop German provinces of Austria iuto the federal territory; and in that respect it would be as contrary to the interests of the otber German States as to tue epiris of the Huropeaa trea- ties whic have ratitied the copditioasof their exisvence.’” Indeed, it is clear that if Austria were allowed to entar the Germspic Confederacy in respect of ber noc-German territories, the resuit would be to de#uoy ibe salaace of Germanic powrr wiih p the confederacy.
