speech coneains his deliberate opinion conceived with

Ire coup dttat OF Napoleon Is natural event in the his

coub, that the recent military revolution in France is
deep laid design, formed by the leaders Of the army,
using Louis Napoleon merely q and symbo in the

Roman army held the empire OF Rome, from the time of
Aueustus Caesar to Augustu'uB.
Tbe true philosophical reading o. France and Europe s
very different from, ana very opposite TO- that which
Kossuth has given to theee events Europe in its cyi
zaion, morals, state Of society, government, politics. L
10 come respects in precisely the position
when Augustus became master Of ancient Rome under
the authority Of the Roman arms, the Prsetorian
Guards. All Europe is now under military despotsm.

keep in their possession for the present century, and
PERHAPS for two three centuries more, l., yer

Emperor of Austria be substituted for another the

These, we conend are the correct and philosophical
