The parts played By. the different States of
Europe bare changed since then. The revolu-
tion Of l848 swept Away the prestige OF many
fime.honoFed dynaaties, and laid bare the weak
points Of every Kingdom. Francis 1o.eph, Ma
poleon, and Victor Emanuel sscended tbs throne

Aarch, l84s). Each Of them chose different
policy, and each OF them has arrived Ut differ.

months Of his reign in Italy. was defeated In
Hungary, but bJ the aid ef Russia, he became
once more the uncontrolled master Of his
Empire. He then threw himself into the hands

macy IN Germany. Hungary was terror1zed,
and the world really believed that Austria was
defeated. bankrupt, despised. Victor Emanuel,
on tue herhand, ,inherited his throne under The
most trying circumstances. The battle Of No.

guishcd the ambition of Charles Albert. Sar-

Prince Schwarzerburg and Of old Radetzky, by

Cause Of tho Special Dislike ofthe DEM

ocratR 10 Lincoln,
Alter aearehfng many of.theiEleadiu journals
IN vain for the CAUSE Of the special diaiife of Me-
Democrats to Lincoln. we found it 1t last IN ,ha
Gsw York H~aa. That cause /. nothuq uore
Of iess than bis honesty. It y argued that bis
President This charge would seem very ab-
aurd 1t hrat, and indicative OF the mental and
moral insanity Of its suthor; but whoever views
the question from the Democratic atand point,
and diacusses It on Democratic grounds, will be
forced to acknowledge its plausihllity. The er-
ror lies in the implied assumption that other
political parties are no better than tho party
which IL now IN cover. Certainly the De.uoc-
racy would not be justified in nominating any
mau for the Presidency who il uuIearued in the
arts Of rascality. such man, in the event Of
his election, would soon fall an easy prey to the
horde Of thieves and plunderers By which he
you'd be suFrounded: Conscientious Demo
organization is to csr'y out the maxim, "Set
thief 10 catch thief" This Is tho principle
on which Vidocq, and perhaps others like him,
were taken into the police Of Paris. To turn an
uusopbisttcated, honest President over to the
guidance Of snch men as control the Democratic
party would be IS bad as to deliver simple
minded faamer with we'll hlted purse into the
hands Of city gamblers and sha1pers. But hon
esty IS By no means the equivalent OF weakness.
When the quality IS common 10 the President
aud his counselors, it turns gu. that The zogues
are the only sutfesess. When it is conceded
that Lincoln will have men of integrity and pa-
tslotism for his adviseTs. one proposition Of the
Democratic sylloglsu1 falls to the ground, dc.
stroytng the whole theory on which it rested.
WhateEer the opponents Of the Republicans
may say to the contrary, We contend that hon
esty in itself disquali6es no man for discharg-
ing the duties Of the Presidential office. As so5n
as party diseards corruption rs means of gos-
the Fo1, cease to be the model character of
Statesmen and politicians. Considering that
Abraham Lincoln Is no: to act with, but against
the Democratic party, aud that his adminlssra-
ton will be sustained by the lustg vigor Of the
Republican party, we conclude the country will
be safe, however honest he is, aad however ig-
noraut be may continue to be Of the thievish
tricks and stratagema in which the Admiuistra.
