This presidential elastics, tubed, seems likely to
turn out in result the direct mates" of what each
pony hared and wished. The moaarchista have bag
looked to it as the great set which was to kill and
solemnly inter the repablis. Nay, they are said to
have seeded Prince Louts BONAPAETI IN the attest
persona-e to be the executioaer and undertaker on the
mason.
Prises Louis, however, will probablyhaveperceimd
that although entrusted with the task of slaying the
republic, it was not for hien that the eventual enjoy-
ment of the spoil was reserved. Nor can he be with-
out the sense to perceive that his hold of power and

Taking Osumi CAVAIONAC to be the representative of
the repulses priseplet both it sad be are, perhaps,
stronger by his not winning this election, than by his
being installed in the presidential chair. Were the
BONAPAITE set aside, that mystic and ideal prestige
which attaches to the name would augment and
embarrass any other president. A BONAPARTE
ruler is considered to be the one before whom
Europe trembles, and at whose court lane
will come to kneel, whilst the taxman is
to be unheard of in the country village, whilst peasants
are to grow up marshals, and blacksmiths senators
and stitsemen. In order to banish for ever these
illmices, it ii requisite that LOUIS NAPOLEON should
govern as president, should tax at home, and negotiate
abroad, and go through all the hard and dirty work of
every.day governments. Six months will redoes the
prince to the level of other kings or presidents; and
the majesty which still hedges a BONAPARTE will WOO
be worth no more than that which has disappeared
from around the Botralion of all branches.
Moreover, if it be requisite for the BONAPARTIS to
be in the actual possession and exercise of govern-
ment in order to afford a just appreciation of their
merits, it is equally amnesty foe the moderate repub-
lics's to undergo some political schooling, to throw
out some men ot parliamentary slogan and minis-
terial experience, ere they undertake to act as go.
yerameat. The arty wants some two or three yam
at beet of that probation which is best acquired on
the beaches of opposition. If its men be true to them-
selves, take their present defeat, an they ought to take
it, in good part, and "retreat in order to leap the
higher," their prospects are excellent, and their influ-
ence, resent and future, all that men in their posi-
tion as desire.
Should Louis BONAPARTE be proclaimed president
he cannot fail at bet to compose an anti-republican
ministry. This circumstance alone will unite not only
all republicans, moderate and immoderate, in oppose-
time, bat will throw into it that very large class which
is neither republican nor monarchist, but whisk e-

But, as we said, the conduct of the election is as

be paid to the viciedustles of the weather, and a
moveable canopy provided, under which the principal
