Tending the nelo Compromise Wing Platform.

what constitutes a " national whig:"
A national whig is one who is opposed to
the Wilmot proviso; opposed TO abolition in

The Coming European Revolu-

FRANCE TAKING THE LEAD.

--.- FRANCE TAKING THE LEAD. ,u-f
The intelligence from France, by the last
foreign arrival, which will be found in another
column, indicates that re-agitation of the po-
litical waters of Europe is soon to be witnessed.
A recent London letter gives the then existing
state of affairs, as follows - "...'.
+" England is dull indeed, and all Europe
perfectly quiet. But trouble is daily expected
in France, and revolutionary movements are
threatened in other countries. The crowned
heads of Europe appear to be making active
preparations for long and severe political
storm. Austria and Prussia are endeavoring
TO negotiate large loans, whilst the Car of
Russia is urging the completion of railways,
and thousands of carriages for the conveyance
of his troops. Every movement looks omin-
Gus. The bloody scenes of 1913, is believed,
are about to be enacted.
France, as before, will commence the TRACE
dy, Italy will follow, and the people of the diff
ferent States comprising the Germanic confed-
Grafton are expected to watch their opportunity.
1t is known that conspiracy exists in. Russia !;
and the volcanic fire once kindled in France,
who can predict when and where it will be
quenched! Happily, America cannot be dis
turbed by any of these predicted events, al
though her regular trade and commerce may
suffer somewhat. The liberties of peoples will
be the universal walchword, and the anticipa-
ted strife will undoubtedly be a terrible one !;
but it will probably be the last struggle Of peo-
Piles for independence. Every successive week
discloses the means and the men by which the
work will be carried on. The Liberation of
Kossuth has hastened the day of commencing
that work. Kossuth is expected 10 return to
England in two or three months from this date,
and proceed TO Belgium, from whence he will
watch the course of events in Austria, Hunga-
ry and France. He is well aware that his
presence in Europe will exercise an al!-pow
erful influence upon the cause of liberty"
Louis Napoleon is raising whirIwind, if
we mistake not, that he will be unable to ride.
His pre;ensions are specious, and may posi-
bly, deceive the French people into his support.
His object evidently is to establish an Elective
Monarchy, and we are no, so sure that this
would not be the best government for the French
nation, under present circumstances. Mean
time, kossuth will not be inactive, and much
will depend upon his movements.
The next foreign arrival will be looked to
with interest ....

adopt such measures as would make the Am
