The French Revolution.

The late Coup d Etat of Louis Bonaparte may be
considered as the closing scene in the reaction
which took place after the European outbreak of
le4o, and by Its consumation. despotic rule is now
more universally, If not more firmly fixed upon the
people of that continent, than it was before Louis
Philippe was driven from his throne. OF the inten-
tons OF Bonaparte, no one who has watched his
course, could, for long time past, have any doubt
Indeed his rule has been more tyrancal and arbi-
trary than that of Lonis Philippe, and the dis
position to make 1t permanent has not been dis
guised
No true lover of liberty, and Of the progress of his
race can look at the present state of things in Eu-
rope, without humiliation and deep sorrow. With
France on the side of absoutism we see but little
chance for hope Of the other powers And, that
France will remain where she now is for some time
to come, appears to us inevitable. She has an i'm
mense standing army Of half million of we'll armed
and well disciplined men, and they appear for the
present, TO be devoted to the cause of The traitor,
who has tramped the constitution under foot, and
made his will the law of the nation.
Yet we have strong hope for the future. ssTruth
crushed to earth shall rise again" Though despot-
ism broods over the whole continent, yet light has
gone forth which cannot be extnguished. Even
while absolutism trmuphs, the principle of liberty
is spreading and strengthnng and will finally have
It's day Let us hope that il may not be far distant,
and let us do what we can to hasten its coming
Let US remember that principle is bounded by no
lines OF latitude or longitude, nor confined 10 geograph
ical divisions. Whatever tends 10 strengthen in
one place, tends 10 its universal dissemination and
final triumph. We ,then, have mission to perform,
and the more bound to be faithful to our trusts,
as the numbers who can openly work with are
reduced. What we do for Liberty here, we do for
Liberty everywhere. Every blow for the cause,
truck by us, felt by all the despots Of Europe aud
weakens their strength, while every advantage
gained by tyranny here, serves to bind faster the
bonds of the French, the Italians, the Germans the
Poles, and the Hungarians. Knowing this, we are
dastards and recreants if fail to come up to the
| point demanded by the crisis.

CURIOUS DECIsIoN.-In case before the
Superior Court of New Hampshire, OF Williams
Us. Tappan, for payment for shingles sold in New
buryporl, the defence rested on the fact that The
shingles were not inspected and branded accord
ing to the law of Massachusetts, which declares
all shingles offered for sale, forfeited, unless they
have been inspected by an officer appointed for
that purpose. The Court, however, according TO
the Portsmouth Gazette, "gave judgment for the
plaintiff on the ground that the statute of Massa-
chusets, though it prohibits the offer to SELL does
not prohibit sale; and that there was no evil
dence in this case, Of an offer TO selI''(D With
better reason, they also held, that, as it appeared

WHAT Is A YEAR .

What is year? IT'S but wave
OF fe's dark rolling stream,
Which is so quickly gone that we
Account il but a dream.
'Tis but single earnest throb
of Times Old iron heart
Which tireless now and strong as when
Ii first with life did st .rt.
What is year? IT'S but II turn
OF Times old brazen wheel
Or but page upon tie book
Which death must shortly seal.
IT'S but step upon The road
Which we must travel DER;
A few more steps aud we shall walk
Lies weary road no more.
What is year! IT'S but breath
From Times old noslril blown,
As rushing onward DER the earth,
We hear his weary moan.
IT'S but the bubble on the wave,
Or dew upon the lawn
As transient as the mists of morn,
Beneath the summer sun.
What is year? IT'S but type
OF liie's fast changing scene;
Youths happy morn comes gaily on
With hills and valleys green.
Next Summers p ime succeeds the Spring.
Then Autumn with a tear;
Then con es old Winter-death, and all
Must ffid their level here.

KOssuth i'm PhiladeIphia-Gr
Reception.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. "a
Kossuth arrived here this morning, and took up
his quarters at the United States Hotel. Nearly
1000 military are out, and there are about 20
companies from the interior present.
Second Despatch-The military and civic pro-
cesslon is IN motion. Kossuth has just been re-
celved by the military, from barouche drawn
by SIX greys. The civic procession exceeds that
OF the New York reception, in display
Third Despatch.-The Kossuth reception to-
day, passed off very finely. The procession ar
rived at the State House at 1-2 O'Clock, where
Kossuth left his carriage, and was conducted into
Independence Hall. Here he was introduced TO
Mayor Glpn, by Edward ]. Farquhar, Chair
man of the Corporation Committee. Mr.. Gilpin
briefly addressed him, welcoming him as the ma
TONS and city's guest, to which Kossuth made
an eloquent reply.
Fourth Despatch.-Kossulh is quite i'll; he
has considerable fever, but not of dangerous ma
ture. Kossuth will not, probably, from the above
cause, speak more than five or ten minutes this
evening
Fifth Despatch.-Before Kossuth entered the
dinner room, be received Col. Pages company OF
State Fencibles, in the gentemen's parlor of the
United States Hotel. Col. Page, in a brief, and
very neat speech, presented Kossuth with mag
nlhcent Maltese Cross of Gold, in which was a
likeness of General Washington, set in pearls,
and loclet containing portion of the hair of
Washington.
The Corporation Banquetcame off this evening,
at the United States Hole but the illness of Kos
suth robbed it Of its principal attraction.
Several speeches were made, and the company
separated at an early hour. Take it altogether.
