THE LONDON TIMES ON TMg OR-
LEANs PRnNCHs uN AMERICA.

COmplegne, me L0nd0n I9meS pubBhec some rary
articles, giving great offence the other side Of the
Channel The Pegs, Journal de fEmpiye, in its
turn, characterized The Times writers as people
whose heads were poisoned by gin, and whose pens
were dipred into mud. Such occasional exchanges
Of iDyective are only intended to mislead public
onnon theiu intimate relations connecting Printing
House Square 10 the Tuileries. There exists beyond
the French frontiers greater sycophant Of the Man
Of December than The London 7tnes, and its SER
yices are the more Invaluable the more that paper
now and then resumes the tone and the air of CATO
censor toward It's Cpsar. The Times had for months
heaped insult uron Prussia. Improving the miser-
able Macdonald affair, il had told Prussia that En-
gland would feel glad to transfer of the Rhenish
Provinces from the barbarous sway Of the Hohen-
zoleru TO the enlightened despotism of Bonapare.
| 1t had not only exasperated the Prussan dynasty,
but the Prussisn people. 1t had written down the
idea Of ali Apgo-Prussian alliance in case OF Prus-
sian conflict with France. 1t had strained all its
powers to convince Prussia that abe had nothing to
hope from England aud that the next best thing she
could do wOud be to come 10 fome understanding
with France. When at last the weak and trimming
monarch of Prussia resolved upon the visit at Com
piegne, The Times could proudly excairn: "qao.
run magma p0rs fni;" but new the time had also
arrived for obli,eratng from the memory OF the
British the fact that The Times hsd been the path
finder Of the Prussan monarch. Hence the roar Of
its theatrical tbunders Hence the counter roars Of
the Pays, Journal de dePEmpire.
TIE Times hid now recovered ts position of the
deadly antagonist Of Bonapariisn and, therefore,
the power of lending lite aid to the Man of December.
An occasion soon offered. Louis Bonaparte is Of
course most touchy whenever the renown Of rival
| pretenders TO the French crown is concerned. He
had covered himself with ridicule in the affair Of the
Duke dAunales pamphlet against Plon Plon, and,
by his proceedings had done in furtherance of
the Orleanis cause than all the Orleanist partisans
combined. Again, in these latter days, tie French
people were called upon TO draw parallel between
Plon Plon and the Orleans princes. When Plon Plon
set out for America there carcstures circulated
in the Faubourg St. Antoine representing him ss a
fat man in search Of a crown bot protesting at the
same time 10 be most noffensiye traveller, with
a peculiar aversion to the smell Of powder.
While Plon Pon is returning 10 France with more
laurels than lie gathered 10 the Crmea and in Italy
the Princes Of Orleans cross the Atlantic 20 take
service in the ranks Of the National army. Hence u
great stir in the BonaI artist camp. IL would not do
to give vent 10 Bonaparist anger through the yenal
press Of Paris. The IpPerialist tesro would thus
only be betrayed, the pamphlet scandal renewed,
and odous compsrisoDs provoked between exi!ed

leon knows, moreover that In France the MISSES
connect tho fight for the maintenance Of the Union
with the fight Of their forefthers for the foundation
of American independence and that with them every
Frenchman drawing bis sword for the National Gov
erpment appears only to execute the bequest OF La
fayete. Bonaparte, therefore. knows that II any
thing be able 10 win the Orleans Princes good
opinions from the French people, it will be their
enlistment in the ranks Of the national army OF the
United States. He sbudders at this very notion, and
consequently The London Tnes his censorious syco-
phant tells to-day the Orleans princes that "thsy
will derive no increase Of popularity with the
French nation from STOPPING to serve on this gHo-
bic Jeldef action" Louis napoleon knows that all
the wars waged in Europe between hostile nations
since bis coup detat have been mock wars, ground
lees wanton and carried on false pretenses. The
Russian war; and the italian war, not TO speak OF
the pratcal expeditions against China, Cochin China,
and 30 forth, never enlisted the sympathies of the
French people, instinctively aware that both wars
were carried on only with the view to strengthening
the chains forged by the coup dfa. The first grand
war Of cotemporaneous history is the American war.
