An able paper under that title. The esdng political
article entitled the Invasion Of England takes
similar view Of the maritime relations of France AMI
Great Britain that recently presented in this jour
nal ard sets forth in tone, almost amounting 20 that
Of panic the pe,s TO which Eng land Is exposed from
the designs and the resources Of Louis Napoleon. The
wliter maintains that the present moment IS CRISIS
Of intense soemDty TO the British nation. II is cer-
tain that before long period SHAH eapse the proves
OF the English people will be tested 10 the utmost
unless BY some special nterposition of Providence
the course of events is altered beyond what human
prescenoe csn divine Nor Is i the personal amo-
lion Of the Emperor alone which is to be dreaded.
His course is founded the public opinion Of France
which has transformed the peace empire OF 1913 tothe
war empire of 1859. The great body of the people OF
France consider the humiliation OF England as neces
sty of national pride. VITA every motive on the part
of In gand on tie other hand for the maintenance Of
peace, seems lneNlldOIc Indl -coic VI oeei eA~ SS
Of he tso naous will be ranged in battle array to
dispute the empire Of the The issue, IN view
Of tie writer, would scarcely be doubtful. IL the
French could obtain command Of the Channel for
three months or even for three weeks, they could
easily land 100000 or 2jO,O 600 men on the English
coast ard then there would be obstacle 10 their
rossesson Of the capital. The consequences Of this
event are awful TO contemplate History presents no
psrael TO L. since the destruction Of Carthage. The
essentially commercial character of England makes
the prosp ct one of unique terror. Even The cessation
of dividends on the national debt would spread misery
among thousands of families but the universal paraly-
SIS of trade would cause famine and wretchedness
,broue ut the land The fire, form which the despair
Of tie pee, e might take would probably be an nsur-
rectior against property, and vast social revolution
might be the consequence bu. az nothing wouid be
thus gained the furnishing would turn against
the invaders and nothing but the most ghtial
wholesale executions could subdue the wol6-h multi

reign ofterror afford but faint anticipation of the
English people writing and starving in the grasp OF
foreign corqueror.-Such is the Csssanjra-sorg OF
prominent journal in British periodical literature.
II is to be hoped that the fears OF the
writer have been enhanced by his imagIna-
tor, and that the perils he depicts with such
somber colOrs are merely possibilities that DO disas-
trous star will precpitate into realities Ills language,
however, has strange sound, as coming from the lips
Of the nsolent self confident overbearing mouthpece
Of the British sristocracy.
