NAPOLEON HI.

The Emperor of France recently invited himself
to conference with the Prince Regent OF Prussia,
and chose Baden for the scene Of that interview.
The Prussian assented and cape; and sundry
German kpgliDgs gathered also OF the rendezvous
of their Maiesties. Of what was royalty said and
dore there, little is known; after the promised
explanation shall have been put forth by Thouye-
mel probably still less will be known. But If the
object of the son of Verhuel was to couciliate to
reassure, TO win over, the Germans, or even their
rulers, he has VIGOROUSLY failed.
At Baden, the forced, hollow, Fictitious place
holders and place-huhters cheers which attend
the progress of the French AuOcrat within hls own
dominions. were not heard. Some smothered Kisses
at intervals desperate attempt at hurrah by
little squad, whose police uniform had been lald
aside, but whose French accent was nDmlstikable
but in the main dead, blank, freezing silence
marked his progress through the streets ct that
little capital. Though hard necessity constrained
the features of kings and grand dukes into sem
blance Of courtesy, the aversion and hatred oil the
masses was emphatic and irrepresslble.
Louis Napoleon is to-day the most powerful ruler
in Europe, therefore in the world. But no one
loves, trusts, nor esteems him. With his broken
oath to respect and uphold the Republic on his
soul, with the blood Of its martyred defenders on
his hands, he extends HE power only to enlarge
the area over which be is intensely hated ana
abhOrTed. The Roman Catholic Hierarchy, who
were the elIogists and the cOnfederaes OF bis ear
ler crimes against Liberty, have renowned and
will never more put faith in him. Switzerland,
which was his generous asylum in his utmost
peril and misfortune, and brayed the power
of France for his protection, now braves
it again TO expose and denounce his perfidious ra
pacty in anpexng the neutralized SayOyard prov
inces of Faucigny and Chabais to his Empire
Even Great Britain, so long his accompbee, now
denour ces, through her Foreign Minister, his
treatment of Switzerland in the premises as charac
terized by bad faith. And Italy, after being osten-
tatiously told that France is the only nation that
sheds her blood for an idea, awakes from de-
lirum of gratitude to find her great champion the
very SbylocS of allies, insisting on the last gram
of his pound of flesh, no matter though every drop
of blood must follow. Napoleon l. was hardly
more exacting with his yanquished enemies than is
Napoleon H. Nth his victorious but still depend
ent allies.
At the head of the most powerful military nation
and of the strongest army in Europe-that nation
wearing his chains in seeming content; that army
the headlong instrument Of his will-Napoeon iii.
stands to-day isolated and unloyed. His empire is
bounded by the range of his cannon; the CLEAN OF
his baycnets reflects the only glory of his reign;
and when he falls, as fall he must, his ruin will
be greeted by the mpulsye acclamations of
Christtndom.

The inquest on the bodies Of Mr. Walton and
Mr.. Mathews was continued yesterday, at Bellevue
Hospital. The testimony elected will be found In
full on another page of this paper. While 1t throws
but little light OH the terrible tragedy, 1t increases
our wonder that two such murders could be pub
licly committed that one Of them could be VIII
messed by so many persons, that the weapon OF
death could be found, and yet that the murderer
should remain unknown. One gentleman swore
with great particularly to the distance between
the murderer and Mr.. Mathews when he fret saw
them. and the distance when the fatal shot was
fired but he has no notion Of the appearance OF
the murderer. The Jeferds boys, Charles and
Edwin. were confronted with him, but he could
only say that the former was nearer the size OF the
murderer, yet he did not think that he was the
man. The daughter of Mr.. Walton, an interesting
Girl and his aged mother, testified to threats made
by Charles Jefferds, that he would blow Mr. Wal
toms brains out. 1t is said that Mr. Walton leaves
fortune Of half million.

RTE FIJI.

Ihe ~ Y. Elpress--which pretends to support
Bell and Everett yet does all it can to turn over
votes to Douglas and JohnsOn-prOtests az lnst the
breckenridge movement as sinister and insincere |!
We dare The Express to join issue with US on the
following predictions:
l. We predict that Lincoln and Hamlin will
have the highest Electoral Vote and that Breckin-
ridge and Lane will have the next highest.
9. We predict that Bell and Eyerett-whom
The Express pretends to snpport-wil have more
Electoral Votes than Douglas and johnson, whom
it really lavors.
3. We predict that breckenridge and Lane will
have twice many Electoral Votes as Douglas and
Johnson
4. We predict that Lincoln and Hamlin will
have four times as many Electoral Votes as either
Bel and Everett or Douglas and Johnson.
These results are Obvious. They inhere in the
nature of things. Lincoln and EIamlin represent q
prnciple-that of National resistance to the dlffu-
sion of Slavery. Breck nridge aud Lane represent
the antagonist principle-that of National protec-
ton to the diffusion Of Slavery. Douglas John
son represent dodge-namely: National indiffer-
tllCG 10 tDt ullublbH vi oNh Gnu S''iets
represent sham-National blindness to the diilu.
sion of Slavery. Earnest men are necessarily with
one or the other of the named. And earnest
men happen to be- greatly in the majority about
these days. Really very few are Indifferent while
none who can read are blind to the great, over
shadowing issue of our age. Political trimmers
who would ignore the grayest facts by resolving
that they don't see, or care nothing about
them NAV vote for Douglas or Bell; but the people
are overwhelmingly in favor of settlement of the
Slavery extension issue Oh it, merits-one that shall
be real and binding.
The Express will perceive with concern that
the Breckenridge men Of st. Louis have nominated
Candidates for Governor and Lieutenant, in OppO-
stion to the Democratic candidates previously in
ia the field who have demonstrated for Douglas.
If this movement should result in the choice of
Bell or Union candidates over the warning Demo-
cratic aspirants, The Express will doubtless suffer
affection, but there will be no help for it. The
safer TRUTHS that people gong to do just about
as they please this year, and what peases them is
not likely to please The Express.
