Not a great while ago it had the reputation of being tricky and false — of taking advantage of the secrecy with which it was conducted to play an unfair game. The history of the past is filled with examples of eminent men, who considered it the height of merit to snow skill in outwitting their neighbors in negotiation. Indeed, there is an anecdote told, of a very distinguished public character of the last age in France — I know not with what justice — that such was the reputation he had obtained as an adept in deception in one part of his life, that from that time he made up his mind airways to tell the truth, being confident nobody would ever think of believing him, and that thus he might the better conceal his objects.

Looking abroad upon the world in the cool morning, it may seem to some of us that men grow sanguine after dinner, and that it is scarcely a time to sleep too soundly. If, however, the world will consent to be at peace, the world may be well assured that England will not break it. [From the London Herald.] Would Lord Palmerston travel as far as Lancashire and hear what the mill owners say about the hard times that are in store for their operatives and themselves, he might be inclined to speak of the that threaten the North of England as something scarcely summed up in the conventional phrase "a temporary evil."

To the gentlemen whose health I am now about to propose is committed the charge of preserving the peace of the world. I allude to the diplomatic body. But for their exertions, their talents, tact and ability, there have been hundreds of occasions during the last fifty years in which we might have been involved in war.
