imbrogio. The Sanders banquet at London
and the banquet at Paris can only be intended
to exasperate Louis Napoleon, and to involve
cur Continental diplomacy in still more serious
complications. Soule and the socialists do not
forget that it was the suppression of revolu-
tionary banquet which precipitated the expul-
sion Of Louis Philippe from France. They,
perhaps, desire Louis Napoleon to try the same
experiment, with the hope Of reviving the bar
ricades and the Red Republic. They may be
gratified in having their dinner abruptly cut
short by the police but they will be disap-
pointed concerning the Narsellaise. They will
not hear it on the Boulevards. Louis Napole-
on is not Louis Philippe. But Soule may gain
desirable distinction in the end, in being sum-
marily expelled from Paris and from France.
Either with France or with Spain he and his
diplomatic consprators appear resolved to have
quarrel ard a casus 6elIi Their Presidential
plot requires that the administration should be
galvanized into life again. War, or q hot,
threaen ming quarrel with France and Spain may
do it. They may yet succeed in getting it. We
await the issue with anxiety and alarm.
To sum up, we repeat it, from reliable infor-
nation, that this Soule affair, and all the Soule
troubles in Spain, and this late visit Of Dudley
Mann to Europe, and the late diplomatic con
ferences at Ostend and elsewhere, are nothing
more than parts ola revolutionary plot between
Pierce's fre-eating diplomats and the Continen-
tai refugces-the object Of which, in Europe is
q revolutionary convulsion, and in the United
States the control Of the Presidential election.
In this view, Buchanan and Mason have been
humbugged to pander for the foreign vote in
this country-Soule Sanders, Kossuth, and ali
concerned, having strangely overlooked the
general uprising Of the Know Nothings.
Well, we must struggle on, have patience,
and wait the end of this Soule conspiracy and
the Presidents message to Congress. Marcy
and his pacific counsels may be turned out Of
doors; We may yet be entangled in European
war, which will be an interesting addition to
our threatening financial and commercial en-
barrassments. Should Marcy in month or
two be superseded by Buchanan, we may as
well prepare for the worst. The amiable old
Pennsylvania, between Soule and Kossuth,
has become blood thirsty and belligerent. The
Kitchen Cabinet and our European Cabinet,
with Buchanan in the State Department, win
be warlike coalition. We await the upshot
of the Soul6 squabbles and the Presidents
message.
The LAST GREAT LITERARY MOVEMENTS
We have printed in another pars of this papes
. spicy legal document. 1t is an application OF
the Chevalier Barnum to the Supreme Court,
praying that tribunal to enjoin another publish
er from printing burlesque upon "Barnum's
Life and Adventures" announced to appear
before the holidays.
This occurrence reminds us that there are
now in progress three literary movements
which are intended to delineate the lives of
three great men, and to create three tremen-
dous excitements in the three stratas of socie-
ty in which the authors move.
The Chevalier Barnum is the first Of these
aspirants for the chaplet of literary renown--
to say nothing If his per centage Matters
have lately gone against the Chevaler Bsr.
mum. To use an Eastern expression-the black
clouds Of adversely have settled over the Mu-
scum, and the notes of the Lul-bul are hushcd
in the gardens of Iranistan. Times are hard.
Humbugs have been run into the ground
Neither the double African baby or the Cor.
sican Brothers will draw any longer. The
woolly horse has gone the way Of all such
flesh. Juvenile patriots cannot now be seduc-
ed to invest their quarters in hearing touch
ing storiessof the Poter Patrie from Joice
Hcth-Young America prefers the legitimate
drama. Old Africa has dried up and blown
away in consequence. Jenny Lind is married;
she has taken to baby nursing instead Of roulad-
ing trilling and ventriloquising. The fire
annihilators have annihilated nothing but the
capital which was put into them. The great
menagerie is broken up, and the animals have
been knocked down under the hammer. The
mermaid has gone back to the manufacturers
hands, in order to be ready for the spring sea-
son, when the anniversaries commence.
What, then, shall the Chevalier Barnum do?
Turn author! That's brilliant idea! The
Chevalier, finding money matters rather tight
with him, resolves to raise the wind to the tune
Of hundred thousand or 30, by confessing to
the public how he has humbugged it--still
keeping up the same tactics, and making my
book" the greatest humbug Of all. The Che
Waller Barnum knows how'to work up public
Jmyore, and he may succeed in his present en-
deavors. Then he may buy new mermaid
and take a fresh start.
Then there is another Chevalier Of the Bar
mum species-the Chevalier Greeley, the phi,
losopher, the politician, the Dogenes, the cage
Of Nassau street.
The best laid plans o. men and mice,
Gang aft agley.
So it is with this dirty philosopher :
this opponent to sblution--this enemy to
clean linen. The copper stock is not worth
a penny-the Red Bank Fourierite institu-
ton don't pay for the bloomer dresses of its
fair inmates-all the Chevaiier's speculations
