INCENSE TO RovALry.--It is strange how those
who possess repubcanism, are given to look with
reverence upon every thing connected with Euro
pean monarchies. They worship the hem of a
Queens petticoat, or the toc-nail of an Emperor,
with as much reverence as the Hndoo does the
idol OF Juggernaut, and are as ready TO immediate
the principles of their fathers, at the shrine off
man worship, as the poor Pagan is his body be-
meath the wheels Of the car Of Mooch. As an
instance oi this lnfauation, too prevalent among
us, we may cite the article published in the Phil
adeiphla Commercial Herald, respecting the invi-
'auons offered to the "Prince dc Jonville, TO
Paf'ake ol public dinner with the French resi-
uen's' the Mayor, and citizens of PHILADELPHIA -
!, IS not surprising that the French residents
snouia wish to express kind feeling to a stran-
GER from the land of their birth, but for Ameri-
can citizens to fawn upon the Young gentleman
merely because he was the son Of king, and to
call that king Zone of the greatest and best that
ever existed" is disgusting. Our opinion, on
this subject, may be called "outrageously demo-
cratc," but we adhere to the principle Of respect
ing no man for the accidental advantages of birth.
and believe that even if birth could confer honor,
honor would not be the inheritance of the sons of
