      THE ARMISTICE . The capture of Verona Tyould have been a less ^ startling announcement tkan ^ the news of tli e armistice so suddenly and unexpectedly concluded between the belligerent powers , and which will excite as niuch surprise in Paris , Berlin , and Vienna as it ha $ done in London . It has been known for many weeks that Prussia "was looking out for an opportunity of obtaining the consent of Austria to proposals that might bring the / Italian difficulty within the sphere of diplomatic solution ; but the traditional obstinacy of the Court of Vienna and the magnitude of the resources still at its disposal ,

      fortunes of Austria would be reduced- to desperation , as she would require to maintain an immense army , when actually or / virtually deprived of a large portion of her territory , and more than hal her . population .- Already the value of the famous quadrangle is seen to diminish , and fortifications are shown to be a tad resource against an enemy victorious in the field and in possession of the adjacent country . It was expected that with the help of a powerful army the four fortresses , Peschiera , Mantua , Verona , and Lezuago could be combined into one vast system , of defence ;

      but , either in consequence of the defeat at Solferino , or the impossibility , from commissarai or other reasons , of keeping the requisite force in the field , this scheme has proved impracticable . Peschiera may be regarded as an . outwork of Veronaj and the Austnans virtually abandoned it when they permitted its investment . Mantua likewise , appears a source of weakness rather than of strength , requiring about 30 , 000 men for its defence , and not seriously inconveniencing the allies , except by requiring them to watch it with an equivalent force . Verona is , without doubt , the place of real importance , and , taken in connexion with its outworks , is said to require at least 60000 men to hold it against a large besieging force ?

      , and , in addition to this , another army would be needed for the preservation of its communications through the valley of the Adige . Under these circumstances , the defence of Verona might be prolonged for a considerable time ; but it would be a most exhausting process for Austria , involving many of the difficulties which the Russians had to contend with at the siege of Sebastopdl . These facts certainly ought to make the Court of Vienna desirous of peace upon the best terms the French Emperor will grant ; but it is difficult to believe that the House of Hapsburg , howeyef plausible its pretences , will negotiate with any other object than that of entangling the German Confederation

      m their cause . . Letters from Prussia give a frightful account of the distress occasioned by the recent measures of mobilisation , whicli have paralysed industry and thrown upon thousands of families burdens which they are unable to bear . The Tory party and the speculators in Austrian paper are anxious for war , while , according to the usual practice of the tribe , the ultra democrats fraternise with the men of reaction , and are ready to support Austria for the sake of the distui'barice it will create . The

      steady going men of business and the wiser portion of the Liberals deprecate this folly , and see in the ruin produced , by the warlike measures of the Government a strong reason for promoting German unity and leaving Austria to her fate . Sensible people cannot help perceiving that mere preparation for a possible war inflicts upon Prussia an amount of misery that France does not feeL even when actually engaged in gigantic hostilities , and the cause is obvious—the division of Germany into fragments comparatively worthless for mutual

      support . In addition to other elements of disturbance comes the " Roman Question ; " and Louis Napoleon would give si handsome premium to any one who would tell him what to do ¦ with the Pope . At present he could not afford to incur the animosity of the priests , and the bigotry of the rural population in France , by attempting to annex the Roman territories to Sardinia ; and the Mazzim party , instead , of following the ' sensible course adopted by Garibaldi , have taken advantage of the atrocities committed at Perugia to renew their efforts to get -up a movement hostile to that in which the allies nre engaged . It is believed that they will have no chance in Lonibardy or Venice ; but in Rome they may get up an agitation wlncn , wo fear , will do no good .

      rendered it improbable that any terms would be offered that the French Emperor could accept , and thus the action of Prussia seemed more likely to enlarge the area of the conflict than to bring it to a close . It will probably be some days before enough is known of the circumstances of the truce to give reliability to any speculations as to its result , but it is extremely difficult to believe that any diplomatic bolus will be able to quell the stormy winds of passion thnt have been excited throughout the Italian Peninsula , or induce the House of Hapsburg to give them sufficient vent to calm their rage . Meanwhile there is nothing left to us except to receive the known facts of the

      situation . In France military and naval preparations continue with , the utmost vigour , and the seizure of Lussien Piccolo , and subsequently of Cherso , the larger nnd adjacent island in the Gulf of Fiume , led to tho belief that an appeal to Hungary would shortly be made . These islands would certainly be convenient coaling stations for vessels engaged in the Adriatic and specially destined for an attack on Venice , and their occupation would have tho advantage of inducing tho Austrians to send troops to Fiume that might otherwise have been employed on tho Peninsula ; but taken in connexion with the nrosunco oflvossuth in Italy , by

      express wish of tho French Emperor , their seizure indicated , to say tho least , a determination to be ready to . act in Hungary at a moment ' s notice . In a military point of view , the situation of Austria lias become extremely critioal . It is probablo that tho famous bridge in the Stolvio Pass has been destroyed by Garibaldi , and that the udjaoont . passes to tho East have boon occupied or rendered impracticable by tlio allies . Foseliiorn was completely investor ! , and not likely to withstand a siego of many days . Mantua was watchod , and tho Venetian territory oxpectod to fall rapidly into tho hands of tho French . If in addition to those disastors a rising took place in Hungary , tho
