No one acquainted with the subterranean
mysteries of Rome is ignorant that n

general and the police authorities receive
daily reports of all that is going on. The
French have about 5000 men in Rome,

Toast of Hon. g. F. Comstock the late
Fourth of July Dinner.
More truth and so cutting a rebuke
to the fanaticism of the day, we have
never before known to be uttered in so
small a compass of words. That toast
breathes out volumes of reflections the
most wholesome, weighty and apt, and
such as the haters of our institutions
both at home and abroad would do well
to seriously consider. "Our Govern
ment as it isw 1t needs no alteration
in its material features. As whole
the model is perfect as human means
can construct. We occupy "aurea
mediocrias" the golden mean-as be-
tween despotism and anarchy, tyranny
and lawlessness. Our system admits
of and has for its object "the greatest
good for the greatest number" No
sovereign is acknowledged but the COM
mon People-no rule of civil action
but the will of the majority Constitu-
tionally expressed. Such viii of the
majority "admits of no resistance, no
rebellion" Though offensive to mi
norities it nevertheless must be submit
ted to and obeyed, on pain of cOndem-
nation of the Law and displeasure OF
the People. "Let those who dislike
such Government find better if they
can!" If ours does not suit them, and
they will not give it submission and
support, they have no right to American
citizenship, they have no right to infest
the peace and quiet of our Institutions
and the health and happiness of our
homes with their pollutiOns. The
world is large enough for us all. Let
them make homes under the monarchs
and despots of civilization, or else with
the semi-barbarous and heather. II
