LONDON, TRURSDAI, OCTOBER 3

Fan= politics are mush mere Noisy and All a
such larger measure ofjoernaliam is the parliamentary
Fusion than oat of it. But, somehow era weather,
political questions seem to program fuer in Fleece
oat of session than is it. Toe assembly sod its
equabbks more retard than avarice them. As long
as it sat, the m anarchic parties were frightened by the
presence sad the fury of the Mountain into emnbrea-
tion. This Responded their animosities and pi:al oud
a levgthened truce, in which legitimist, °demist. and
imperialist beat time and stood under arms, but
marched not one step forward.
But since the Notioaal Assembly was prorogued,
and since the rid republicans—with their press
organs silenced and their clubs prohibited—have been
allowed no voice, the monarchic parties have begun to
agitate, no longer in onjunctioa, but in rivalry, and
their chiefs have descended into the foram to canvass,
each after his respective fashion.
The result of this convert it is important to suer-
tale and to record; nor is it, in the present iostance,
difficult to arrive at. Thus there are few men
is cr out of France, who observe and judge such
matters, who will not agree in admitting that the
Count de Ctunsosta has altogether run eat of the
coarse and been distanced. Speaking of the pre-
tenders to the French throes some months back,
we ourselves, bowmucheoever disinclined to mere
legitimary. declared that the Duke of BoRDLeUX bad
the best chance. His name poeseseet the most power-
fel concentration of that desired quality, authority.
His restoration was that mom desired by the great
powers of Europe, by the clergy, by the remains of
the old noMeees ; whilst the middle classes, most
hard° to a restoration of the old BOURBONS, Were
to be won by an announcement of constitutional
principles and liberal monarchism. The Oasaassas
themselves would have shrunk into satellites, had the
legitimist heir come forth surrounded by the bright
halo of such a profession. But there is an historic
fate attindieg all races which have lost thrones; they
want even that amount of perspicuity which all the
world possesses, for going along with the current of
the age. It Bowe on; they stand still, or row beck-
wards ; and, instead of thSting with the tide, obstruct
it, and perish. It is almost ineweeivable that the
Count of CHAMBORD should hays already committed
such a blunder, when we consider that be bad the
astute BLIATER by his side. But the blunder he
has made by calling fior unconditional aliance,
and declaring his claim and his right independent of
the voice of the people, is an undoubted as de-
cisive. There is no more indisputable portion of the
month's necrology, than that the Count of CHAMBORD,
an such a dry, committed suicide at Wiesbaden.
Who administers to his political effects, who
gathers to him the attachment of throes classes, who
must have a Corinthian capital cn the pillar of
state? Not, we fear, poor LOL II NAPOLEON. There
are not ten men in France who have faith in him as
the founder of a dynasty. No oar' indeed, hates
him, but who respects or trusts him ? Elected
u the representaire of tho popular principl
be has turned his hack sue it with the moat stupid
ingratitude. Yet what cutlet alone have given him
weight with the middle clams, and with professional
politicians' was his retention of popular adhesion and
myport. This he could have won by an homer, libe
sal, and modeet policy in Ital, and by a rational and
intelligent policy at home. Instead of any such, he
ham allowed all political and military inflect ce to
slip from his halide. lie even sold the Englieh alliance,
and joined the pled against one of our ministers, in
order to obtain a sem of money for his necessities. And
yet this sum, thus gained, leotard of being expended
on his necessities, has been squandered in gins and
gratuities during s rubric tour, as if the popularity
lost by imbecil r and retrograde policy was to be
vepurehesed by the distribution of five franc pieces.
Received throughout with • lukewarm and divided
enthusiasm, which strengthened him in editing, the
PRIM Derr has returned to hie capital quits as friend-
less hie. much more p-or. il. se than when hi set out.
By this simultaneous failure of two of the pretenders
to the throne of France, it is undeniable that the chances
el the third candidate'sdlnuty have augmented. The
upper, the middle classes, the protuional politicians,
the military chiefs, desire a monarchy. Note of these
are prepared or can coastal, to seek power in
popsl4rdy. The French p-ople, • large and formi-
dable &e.•, have ideas, views, feelings, and, be
corsequenee, chiefs of their own. There is a divorce
there is a gul ph, between the lower classes and
those high above them. There is now moos
of either the upper or middle class, who
could hope to win the confidence of the people,
or represent them, or be tolerated by them. They
look, therefore, to hold their position solely by domi-
nation. And a monarch is indispensable to them for
the purpose. All eyes now turn to look for such a
necessary Tomarch in the (ALUMS family. The
princes of th,s house are beginning to have the best
chance : we mean, of course, if monarchic ideas, and
the classes which uphold them, continue to maintain
their ascendancy.
Our own opinion' inderd, remains unchanged,
that not one of the three monarchic races will
ever again take root in Frame, however they may
get temporary posesseion of the throne. Noes will
commend the attachment of what after all is the
giver and securer ci thrones, the people. We admit
that the popular mind in France is wild, perverted,
aiming at imposiible things, and giving too good
grounds for mistrust. Bat nevertheless we bare no
cot.fidencis in any mode of constituting a government
in our times and countries an a mere system of repree-
Mon, be it military, or oligarchic. The upper and
lower classes of a country cannot long exist in *Mate
of occult civil war. And nothing but an amicable
compromise can prevent, sooner or later, a new and
destructive explosion.
The industrial and middle classes are, however, so
anxious for a restoration of confidence, and so fearful
that a republican state will not procure it, that a mo-
narchist experiment will in all probability be tried.
Unless tried under very favourable circumstances,
however, with • prince of great talent and largely
popular qualities, it will prove as great a failure as the
government of the last two years. If a re-
public be difficult, with three sioaarshici parties
struggling in its bosom, a monarchy with a
republican oppositios, ready to absorb and assimi-
late every malcontent, is squalliprismachpoesible. An
army an alone upheld it : a army NW
not long be other than a notics.] and a
army ; and the thecae that is built on it
a sand almost as moving as the popular wave e=
washes it at every tide.
A monarchy, however, we think, will be tried in
France, tried and found wanting. The kisses of such
experiment may, however, stretch beyond our time.
Enough for the presort to kaow immediate circum-
teases; and these are the rising fortunes of the OILIANS
brush, the annulment of legitimist hopes, the rimults-
asses lanuelering of the republic, of which, though the
