Louis Napoleon and the European
RevOIutionists.

We publish in another column two re-
markabe letters-one from London and the
other from Rome-in reference to the skilful
political combinations by which the French
Emperor has managed to fortify all his
strategic plans. 1t would appear from the
statements of our correspondents, that whilst,
like skiliul general, he has been steadily
pushing forward his military operations and
winning splendid victories, he it providing
against the changes OF check or failure by
weaving around his adversary network of
difficulties from which it will be impossible
for him to escape.
His abilities have never been more con
spicuously displayed than in his manner of
accomplishing this. He has managed 10 i'm
press all European revolutionists into his
service without compromising himself to them
by any assurance save that implied in vague
generalities. Thus, after making use of Carl
baldi and the Italian republicans to carry out
his plans in Italy, he has taken Kossuth and
Klapka in hands to operate through them on
the terrors of Austria. He has allowed
nothing to enter into his relations with the
Hungarian leaders which would prevent him
at any moment shaking them off and crush
ing them. In Hungary, as in Italy, it will
of course depend entirely on the obstinacy
of Francis Joseph whether the hopes of
Kossuth aud his associates are to be realized.
If Austria cannot be brought to terms, then
IL is certain that France will let loose the
revolutionary element upon her in that quar-
ter.
In Rome, it viii be seen that the policy of
the French Emperor is equally selt-reliant
and Independent. By one party he is accused
of favoring the abuses of the Papal admins
tration, by the other of reducing his Holiness
to the condition of mere cypher in his own
States. The truth is, that he is preserving
evenly the balance between them until the
moment arrives for him TO give new institu-
tions to the Roman people. 1t can never
have entered into his plans to give constitu-
tional government 10 the rest OF Italy and to
leave the monstrous abuses of the Papal ad-
miEistration unreformed. He has too much
on his hands at present. however, to think of
occupying himself with question which in
wolves some of the most delicate and difficult
considerations with which he has yet had TO
deal.
Louis Napoleon has proved himself the
master mind of the present generation of po-
liticians by the manner in which he has tanned
down and subjected the European revolutions
lists to his will. By the aid of these once
formidable fees he is now in position to die
tate to Europe, and to reverse all that has
been effected by diplomatic combinations
against Franee.-N. y. Herald.

Progress Of the Canvass-ImPortan mt
and Cheering intelligence.

The Opposition Executive Committee for
Middle Tennessee are in receipt of the most
satisfactory and cheering intelligence from
all parts of the State in regard TO the pro-
gress of the canvass. They believe we shall
elect our candidate for Governor, seven or
eight members of Congress, and majorities in
both branches of the Legislature. To insure
ALL of these results, the Committee are con-
-fdent that nothing more is wanting, than Wig
orous, persevering work on the part of our
friends in every county and neighborhood in
the State from now until the election. With
such work. our friends may rely on it, that
such a victory is entirely within their power.
We would not mislead them if we could; but
we know what we say. We entreat them,
then, all and everywhere, TO go to work with
the confident assurance, that they will not
work in vain; but that these efforts, If per-
severed in, will certainly be crowned with a
success that will astonish tbemselves-a sue
cess complete and triumphant. Let such ar
rangements be forthwith made in every coun-
ty in the State as will be certain TO bring out
the full Opposition strength. That, now, is
the one thing needful.-OPposition.

@-It is noteworthy fact that while a
large number of the Custom House employ
ees in the city of New York, have been re-
Gently discharged, the imports at that point
are quite as large as heretofore. Is not this
a humiliating confession that the Govern
ment has had employed unnecessary force, at
the public expense, to do the puLlic's SER
vice? Is it not a fact which shows the truth
of the allegations of the extravaganza of the
present administration! As far as it goes, it
is practical confession of the abuses COM
planned of. The question arises, why were
not these supernumeraries sooner discharged?
The government has been borrowing for the
last eighteen months to pay current expenses,
yet these men have been retained in office, to
fatten on the revenues of the treasury, when
it is now shown that the country could as
well have dispensed with their services at any
time heretofore as now? Let the people at
tend to such facts as these.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. County.

An old line Democrat, who can't stand the
present administration and its defenders
writes to US from Shady Grove, Gibson coun-
ty, under date of July 7th. He heard
ETHERIDGE and ATKINS at McLemOresville
and was highly delighted with the discussion
He says" ETHRRIDGE will be elected-mark
my prediction" He adds
Il am o Democrat of the old Jackson
School, but if God lets me live until the 4th
day of August, will vote the full Opposi-
ton ticket. No party that has squandered
the public domain, the common treasure OF
the country, and violated every pledge to the
people, can get my vote and tfere is one
thing certain, Gibson county will give gain
of fifty or one hundred votes for ETHERIDGE.
Send me your Opposition campaigner."
That's the sort of information that is COM
ing in from all quarters of the State. The
good seed sown has terminated and will pro-
duce an abundant harvest on the 4th OF
August A few more weeks good work and
our friends may enjoy she fruits of their
abOrs.

TO- The Union and American insists, by i'm.
plication, that in declining to publish Mr..
FuLAoRE's letter to Mr.. MERRITT. we show a
disrespect for his (Mr. F.'s) Opinions" Now,
we have heretofore given the substance of Mr..
EnLMoRE's letter. He expresses no opinion
whatever, as to the policy of the restrictions
imposed by the constitution of New York, on
bank charters granted by special act of the
Legislature. We beg the Union aud american
to point on. a single expression in that letter,
as uttering an opinion as to the propriety
or improperly of those restrictions. Our
neighbor will hardly undertake the task. We
