Quite as manifest ~ the reactionary snir;t
against the Church of Rome, is the popular senti
ment of Europe sgainstthe American institu ion Of
slavery. In England and on the Continent, the
equality Of all races is admitted. This was illus.
trated at the Crystal Palace, in the irations be-
tween the rosy daughters of tie island, and the
darkey and woolley headed descendants of Congo or
the G. old Coast of Africa. We see it illustrated in
the French Assembly. The two delegates from the
island of Martinique, sitting in that body are black
as the King of Dahomey, but are, in caste, on q
footing of perfect equality and fraternity with NJ
Berger, Victor Hugo, and the whole Assembly, and
the whole nation. The same principle is univer-
sal on the Continent. The Hung ar:ans, from their
isolated position, are practically gnorant of the
nature of our internal controversy on this cues
ton. But the rest Of Europe understands it, and
the socialist Germans are, especially identified in
sentiment with our abotionsts, next to the English
agitators. AT this time, socialist agents of the
continental revolutionists are busy among us pro-
mitigating the doctrine Of negro emancipation. Dr.
Kinkel is blending his German National Loan COL
lections with abolition meetings in the West At
Cleveland, Ohio, at a late Kinkel meeting, II was
distinctly declared that after the people Of Europe
are delivered from despotism, the slaves Of our
Southern States shall be liberated. We might also
produce proofs from certain journals in this city, and
from certain meetings q, far south as Richmond,
Virginia, disclosing revolutionary programme in
behalf Of the people Of the United States, even
more radically democratic than the crudest demo
cracies Of ancient Greece. After the liberation OF
Europe, is thus disclosed that the work of refo..
nation is to be undertaken here and that the slaves
of the South to be liberated, whatever the la
yards Of exterminasipg conflict in that section,
like that of bloody s.. Domingo.
Unfortunately, Kossuth has fallen into the hands
of the rhilanthropic abolitionists of New York To
some extent they have betrayed him and his
cause in thrusting their abolition and negro depu
tations upon him, as if resolved, in defiance Of all
good feeling and respec. for the or the South,
to make him the victim of their black designs. We
find the same of6cious intern eddlers foremos. in
the mana gem, mt Of the proposed Hungarian loan
And thus it is that may account for the delay Of
the Senate in passing the resolution of welcome,
and the dstrust which has been awakened among
South crn men, in and out Of Congress.

revolution menaces Europe with general war,
between despotism and democracy-wbile tie issues
involved are beyond all human compre hension-t is
equally evident that the Pope and the Church Of
Rome are in the most imminent danger. Hence
the hostility of Archbishop Hughes to Kossuth and

imprudently forced the great Magyar under their
protection, while DR.. Knkel is 90 opei atiug with
abolitionism in the West, we may we'll account for
the misgivngs Of the South, when it is declared
that after the Liberation Of Europe, the next blow
shall be struck for the emancipation Of the slaves
Of our Southern States. There is methed in the
madness ofAIchbishop Hughes, and the consistency
of jealous alarm in the minds Of Southern
men. AID thus 1t 10 that between zealots and dema

There is no doubt that such societies, properly
organised and properly conducted, would be very
useful TO the offreedom. Much ignoran pre-
walls the Italian question, and it has been sadly
