Value Of NapoleOn.s Lifesto all Europe

Value Of NapoleOn's LifsHto all Europe.
The Liverpool Times says: SJitas
The narrow escape of Louis Napoleon
from the hand Of death has axed attention
on the loss which Europe and the world,
and more especially England; would have
sustained had the aim Of the monster been
more true, had the fatal weapon executed
its work Of destruction. - ,.'''hi.7
France, no doubt, would have been in a
blaze, all the elements of disruption would
have been called into immediate play. The
two branches Of the Bourbons would have
struggled for the throne, the red repubh-
cans would not have been idle and
the supporters of the present dynasty
would have attempted Of course to shift
for themselves, an outbreak involving civ
il war, must inevitably have followed, the
very worst passions of the "a belIigerents
would have, been env0Oked. 0 grfsU
With the heart of the Empire thus con-
vulsed, the limbs would have become par
alysed, the prosecution of the war against
Russia would have been neglected, the ALI
ance with England might have been sever

The truth is that the life of Louis Ma
poleon is at present the most valuable life
in existence, more depends on it than any
other life. This is less an opinion than O
fact. In countries where the succession
does not shake society to its centre, where
monarch may die and his heir succeed
almost with the same, certainty as that the
sun will rise tomorrow, theevent is rather
personal than national las in the case 0
the Emperor Nicholas, who passed from
time to eternity and left his policy behint
him without disturbingthe system, or in
deed any Of the great funcationaries Of th'
State. ..... ......~ ..... +. a......... ...
With ruler like the Emperor Napoleon
who has to make name, whose thron'
, must be consolidated by his policy and whc
is surrounded on all sides by rivals anc
pretenders, the case is altogether different
and it is in this point Of view, less on ac
count of the man than because of the prin
ciple he represents; that the deliverance

The heavy tide of western emigration
appears to be somewhat checked at the
present, TO be resumed in the autumn
The tendency Of reports Of cholera on the
western rivers has been to restrain the To-
comotive propensity of the pioneer. We
are glad to observe that the falling off from
the eastern States is made up by the daily
arrivals overland of large covered wagons
from Iowa, Wisconsin, Indiana, Illinois,
&C.. =, in which are packed all the parephre-
malta of the farm and freside, ready for
distribution in their proper places as soon
as a claim is selected.
Our western people understand pioneer
life, and know how to prepare for it. They
come to remain, and rarely are they seen
beating an inglorions retreat. Said one IN
our hearing the other day. Otis difficult
to procure a claim in this immediate .vicin-
ity, but am confident there are any NUM-
ber Of good ones not very distant, and !

We shall soon pass through the form

the "bone and sinew, the hard listed yeo-

it for the abode Of refinement, who. can

that without repining at the ways Of Prov
