unable to coincide in all ,hc proposiriuns
advanced by them. we render wiling
tribute to the courtesy Of their dcnicanor,

meaning Of this movement The princes per-
celvo that Louis Napoleon has blundered into
war with Mexico and probably may entangle
himself in war with the United States They
want to be in Europe to take advantage of his
error, hurl him from the throne and restore the
Bourbon dynasty Far more unlikely things
have ,,,ome 10 pass. The princes can appeal
to the democracy of Europe that they have
fought for tbd Nreat republic of the United
States, while Napoleo,2 has sought to destroy
it, and their appeal may be successful. II is
evident that he is afraid Of them; for be will
not permit their names to be mentioned in the
French papers in connection with the brilliant
achievements Of our army in which they have
been engaged. The American war is destined
to disturb Europe - well Is this continent.

FOURTH OF JULY.-To-day the nation colo-
brates the eighty sixth anniversary of its inde-
pendence. The crisis that we have reached in
our national affairs makes 1t day of moro than
usual interest. Our people long since were led
to believe that in addition to the celebrstion Of
our nations birth ws could have to-day added
to our rsjoicings the downfall Of Richmond and
the complete rout of the rebel army now con-
centrated there. The news that has been re-
ceived during the last two or three days has
therefore come upon them like black cloud,
and opens up . new and unthought of feature
in the celebration Of this great day of America
Instead Of the universal rejoicings, buoyant and
sxuberant feelings, q load rests upon the nations
pulse, and its throbbings are slower and moro
respondent.
The reverse at Bull run In June Of last
year was before US on the anniversary one
year ago; but the smoke OF the battle had so
cleared away that we could then see the full
extent Of the disaster and realize our true
position but we are to-day called upon
to celebrate our nations birth without
being fully able to look down into the distant
future and realize where and in what direction
the ship Of State is drifting the hands
now guiding it will bring us safely through the
shoals and breakers that now surround it or
not. 1t is q momentous day; its importance
cannot be placed too high by those who partlci-
pate in the public demonstrations that are to
take place throughout the land It behooves
every person to mark out the line Of duty
now demanded by the true interests of the
country, and to firmly form the resolve to
carry it out.
Let the orators at all the public gatherings
drop their harangues about party platforms
and creeds-for the crisis has demolished them
and proceed to the consideration of the con-
duct Of the war. Let the masses be fully In
structed, and all resolve to ronder the support
to the government necessary to make the suo-
cess Of our armies from this day forward sure
and certain beyond = contingency. Let the
despondsncy that is to-day felt be only
the precursor oil more determined effort
to carry the flag into every portion Of
our once happy country, and give to
the citizens Of every town and hamlet
the protection vouchsafed to them by the con-
stltution. Let to-uay DC tne starting point
for more energetic and determined struggle
The President has called for assistance; and
what nobler record could we record on the fol-
lowing day than that his response had been
answered and that the three hundred thousand
men were marching to the assistance of their
brothers in arms, thus rendering an early
triumph sure, and the return to peace, happi-
ness and prosperity long before the return of
another anniversary Of our independence.
