tTThe London Times shows from history
that for the last two hundred years, in no
case has the son of an occupant of the throne
of France succeeded to the father. Bad pre-
cedent for the baby.
II 1858, three of the most considerable of
the reigning monarchs of Europe entered into
a compact, by which they agreed to regard
Louis Napoleon as only Emperor for life, and
not hereditary monarch of France. In case of
hisdeath or expulsion from the throne, they
pledged themselves to favor the restoration of
the Bourbons. Of course, until this compact
is annulled they cannot regard the newborn
Prince as heir to the throne, but are bound to
disclaim his pretensiohs. Louis Napoleon
will undoubtedly exert himself to have these
pledges cancelled.

or The Sag NIGHT presses of the State are
constantly declaring that the platform adopted
by tho National Convention, is contrary to the
interests of the South and favorable to the in
cendiary designs Of Northern fanatics and
yet we find that all the abclitionists in the
Convention were violently opposed to that
platform and subsequently seeded. Concern
ing the nomination of Willard Fillmore and
Donelson, the New York Tribune says:
The slavery party has finally and thorough
~ conquered the American National organiza-
ton, and secured the nomination of Willard
Fillmore of New York, for President. and An
drew Jackson Donelson of Tennessee, for Vice
President. ss
Here we find these two great opponents of
Americanism, the Sag Nights in the South.
and Sag NIGHTS and abolitionists in the North
both denouncing the Convention Those in
the South because it savors free-soilisfn and
those in the North because pro-slavery men
had the upper hand.

The LADIES AND THE AMERICAN PARTY
A lady correspondent of one of our exchanges
thus freely expresses her sentiments upon the
subject of Americanism:
"In time of yore, Spartan mothers strove
to inspire their sons with an unquenchable
spirit of patriotism. Once our Puritan moth
ers' gloried in imparting to their children the
true principles of freedom, liberty and justice
And shall we American women consent to
70 get their noble examples, and let the love
of our country, whose borders have been bap-
tised with the precious blood of our forefath-
ers, and the tears Of our Puritan mothers be-
come blotted out from existence in our hearts?
No! believe that true principles, and spirit
ofpatriot;sm, and love ofliberty, are advo-
ted by the American party and press, which
is to make us know and feel as five lived in a
country wholly and rghtfully our own to
protect-our own to govern. May God bless
the party styled American, and may success
ever attend it, untilisis known and rules from
the Atlantic's shores to the broad Pacific's
blue waters.
