DAILY PROGRESS. NEWCEKSf, IV. V.t WEDNESDAY MOPtNING, JULY 27, 1859. peace Dec lare a ' A few months ago a desperate and deadly con flict commenced in Europe between France and Italy on the one side' and Austria on the other. As to'tbe cause of the war every one is familiar that is', as familiar as it is possible to become with unsatisfactory abstractions, for the press of both Europe and this country have been flooded with ; tailed, unsatisfactory and uninteresting particu- .-ntr-:niint1iB. v Trip, hone and sinew of jars iu mauj the two countries, France and Austria, met at Magenta and at Salferino, and at other points, led on by their respective masters, their Emperors .they have met hand to hand in deadly strife, the plains of a beautiful country have been strewn with the dead and dying; the soil which but yes terday, as it were, was the abode of peace, plenty and quiet has been laid waste and saturated with human gore but w here's the glory? Echo an swers where ! If we are to believe the particu lars which accompanied the declarations of peace received by the last arrival France has gained nothing, "while Austria lias lost but -little. Save one hundred thousand brave men left lifeless on the field then neither power have anything to boast of. If the recollection of the dying agonies of. these, of the heart-rending spectacle of the wid ows and orphans who will meet the victorious ar- xnies on their return to their homes, be glory, both of the contending powers have it. But except the memory of these comrades-in-arms we can see nothing for which either France or Austria should send np a petition. Peace ! They cry peace .' but still there will be no peace. ; Europe can know no continued peace until their whale framework of government be changed. The different powers must not only become more liberal towards each other, but they must be more liberal to their own subjects. This peace is but the lulling of the storm which ere long a few months or years at most will break out with redoubled fury. The peace, has been es tablished over one hundred thousand of their fellow-countrymen whose warm hearts have ceased to beat, and the Emperors of France and Austria - get all the glory. Let them have it. Messrs . Gilmer and Waddell. It really seems to us that Mr. Vaddell has Mr. Gilmer in a tight place. It will be recollected that these gentlemen were both candidates for Congress two years ago and that they consented to submit their respective claims' to a committee of gentlemen who decided that Mr. Waddell should withdraw and leave the field to Messrs. Gilmer and Williams. Mr. Gilmer was reported at the time to have said that not only himself but his : children and his grand children would ever be under obligations to Mr. Waddell, and that if he (Waddell) desired to be a candidate two years hence he should have the influence of Mr. Gilmer and his funds. Instead of acquainting the Graham " Convention with these facts and refusing the : use of his name, Mr. Gilmer suffers himself to be nominated and then accepts the nomination, not withstanding his sacred promise to Mr. Waddell that he would not be in his way. "The same par ties that were candidates two years ago are now in the field, and Mr. Waddell publishes in the last Standard certificates from J. II. Haughton, II. A. - London and W. A. Nash to prove that Mr. Gilmer did promise two years ago not to be again a can didate. From all these facts we do not see. how Mr. Gilmer could become a candidate in opposi tion to Mr. W addell at this time, lie may say that he could not disregard the wishes of the Convention which nominated him ; that will not : do, he should have apprised the Convention that he was under a sacred promise not to become a candidate and then he would not have been nomi . natcd. -r-- -4 Not to be Wondered At. X correspondent of the Norfolk Day Book says that there is an old blind negro in a hovel in Cumberland Street, in that City, who has only had his bed made up four times in four years, that he is suffering in want. destitution, and filth, and wants some one to do something. So does the Day Book call upon somebody to do something, but we doubt whether the negroe's condition has been relieved or hot Norfolk. is no worse in this respect than other communities, either, but the subject is too near . home. If the suffering negro was in Africa or the Fegee Islands some of the " Societies " would at tend to. him at once. Change of Location.

It will keep them post ed in all home and foreign news up to the time of going to press. ' Personal. We were pleased to see our townsman, J. II. Haughton, Eq.; who left some weeks ago with his family fOr his summer quarters at Pittsboro', at his post at our bar yesterday while Cotfrt was in session. - . ' We had also the pleasure of taking by the hand D. K. McRae, Esq.who has also been absent some time, but who is now in attendance on the special term of the Court, - Life at Old Point. "Bricks," a correspondent of the Washington States, writing from the fame'd Old Point Comfort Va., where there are now a large number'of visi tors, give us the following glimpse of things as they are: "The society here is all the most fastidious critic could well desire ; it at once strikes the visi tor with a true sense of well-bred refinement and courtesy. No stiff formality or ostentatious ; in j.Vpnrft in useless nreludes and superfluity. I Kpeverv little disposition to form cliques and classes, as is the custom at the "stiff and formal resorts of fashion " at the North. There it re quires no great degree of perspicuity to distin guish the parvenue from those of the "manor born." It is hard to galvanize an upstart anywhere ; 'put them anywhere you will, their lowbred merit will pop out. Sectional feeling, ond stiff, put-on-ai.rs of forced ostentation, sink into utter, insignifi cance here. Nothing but true and social; inter course, with good teeling, can pervade such a genial atmosphere.: Let us enter the spacious ball room of the Hy geia at mid day, when all seek the pleasuie of its shade. Here we behold at once the social effect of true refinement. We notice the opulent plan ter of the South, engaged at chess with a mercan tile friend from' the North In another corner we are attracted by the loud and cheerful laugh of a sturdy Western farmer, who is delighted at. the idea of having beaten his. shrewd and calculating friend from the East at a well-contested game of checks. ' We see the white domestic and the black servant attending on their relative charges, who are enjoying themselves in . their childish glee, while the mothers gather around in friendly intercourse, and dwell upon the merits of their off spring writh an eloquence and impassioned feeling knmvn only to mothers "who have a charge to keep," each lady, no doubt, happy in Jier own opinion that she has the model babe. In anoth er group we notice the "untrameled fair," or the belles of the Point, busily engaged discussing subjects as various as. their particular order ; Qt beauty, each, of course, a strong advocate con amore of that style in fashion less calculated to bring" out her perfections. Ot course each cons cious of her own taste, you may depend therei is advocated, - . 1 "Styels which conform to Beauty's several faces, Which shed on all the most becoming graces."; All here is gayety, good humor, wit, sentiment, romance, ana diversion beyond all measure ; the eye is continually entertained with the splendor of dress, the dashing and gay uniforms oi theiot- ficers attached to the Garrison, which by the lustre of the buttonhave attached the fair sex to them. When beaux are most desired, the uniform is most decidedly attractive ; for . :"Maidens, like moths, are ever caught by rglaie." The ear is enlivened with the merry peals of some flute voice, and -the gay laugh ot some ; de lightful "fair one" revolving 'mid a circle qf gal lants, "each envying the other her, lightest smile," or smallest favor, strains of most eloquent music steals o'er the assembly, gayly inviting the wor shippers of Terpiscore to indulge in the "mazes of the giddy dance.,' Others, more romantic, seek the seashore, and philosophize upon the in stability ot human nature, and the lorce ot cir cumstahces. : '. The Honors of War. The following extracts which we take from an exchange drawing a contrast between the plains of Piedmont and Lombard last spring arid now are enough to chill the stoutest heart. How for cibly and how vividly the mind is filled with all the horors of deadly conflict and wholesale slaugh ter while we read them ? j A few months ago," the plains of Piedmont and Lombardy, the most beautiful and fertile portion oi Europe, were ncn in tne glories ot spring, ana rejoicing in the promise ot a plenteous harvest.- The inotfensive peasantry were cheerfully pursu ing their honest labor and cheering themselves with the prospect ot a truitful season, whilst their humble cottages were tho abodes of peace and purity. Health and happiness brightened every lace ; no harm was done by man to his fellow- even the poor, dumb beasts, performed securely and faithfully their part in the useful toil of the day, and enjoyed undisturbed the sleep of tiight A scene of more exquisite repose than a Pied mont landscape,,at sunset, as it has been describ ed by travelers, sung by poets, and sketched by anisis, ii wouia ae uimcuit to nna on tnis trouo led earth. One might well exclaim, upon look ing upon such a scene, as it appears to us in pic tures and in graphic descriptions, "If there's peace to be tound in the world, it is here, it is here 1 But wnat a feartul change ! The sudden torna do that lashes a placid sea into commotion, and strews the shores with shipwreck : the volcano that pours its tide of lava upon the plain, and bu ries cities beneath a river of fire, does not work as terrible and as sad a destruction. If. instead of Zouaves and Turcos from Africa, we could im agine all the beasts of prey of that continent let loose during the night in enormous droves upon the cottages and flocks of Pied mont and Lo mbar dy, they could not stain with blood as many tnresnoids ; they could not pile the plains with as many victims ; thev could not leave such in curable lacerations in human hearts, as the more sanguinary and destructive human brutes whose diSbolical warfare has converted that Paradise into a Pandemonium.
