LONDON, MONDAY, MARCH 8, 1858.

It is obvious that the traditions of the Empire
and the policy of the First NAPOLEON have not
yet been forgotten at the Tuileries. His object
was to make the Ministers of France the con-
trollers and directors of all other Governments—
torenderyaristhe centre of the monarchical system
—the sun by which all other capitals were enlight-
ened. Every instance of insubordination was to
be visited with severe penalties, and dis
affected dynasties deposed to make way for
his own relatives or dependents; who would
yield prompt and ready obedience to his slightest
demand, and willingly surrender the independence
of the nation, over which they were selected to
rule, to the iron-will of their Patron.
-NAPOLEON the Third, as he loves to call him-
self, seems to have determined on carrying the
doctrine to its full extent, advancing, certainly,
by slow degress, but acquiring additional power
for fresh aggressions in every new position that he
ilaaachieved. Itis a part of the system, to induce the
French nation to believe that these assumptions
are recognised and admitted by other nations.
That none will venture to hesitate when the Ear-
commands' and that, according to the
Oriented phraseology, " to hear is to obey," with
all who recognise his Imperial supremacy.
The virtual suppression of the apologetic des-
patch may be mainly ascribed to this policy, and
the untenable demands lately preferred, not only
at Turin and Brussels, but in Vienna and Londou,
spring from the same source. All other govern-
ments are to become gradually accustomed to
such requisitions, until moderate concessions pave
the :ay for greater ones, and all other govern-
r are taught to swallow their leeks with the
equired docility and submission.
The Points

during the Conference at Paris. The Plenipo-
tentiaries who assembled fur
the purpose of restor-
ing peace between the Western Powers and Russia
were very unexpectedly treated to a diatribe
against Belgian journalism, and ominous hints
were given as to the possible consequences
if the Cabinet of Brussels did not adopt
speedy measures to remove the dissatisfaction
of the EMPEROR. We regret to say that this decla-
tnatios was listened to by Lord CLARENDON with-
out an emphatic protest being offered against the
