Edward Everett on tho French-Aus-
trian Project in Mexico.

AAoef - SJ~Os - @AS<NfSOs
In an article addressed to the New
York Ledger, Mr. Everett has with his
peculiar lucidness of diction and ar
rangement, furnished many interest
ing ideas with reference to this new
Napoleonic empire. He recalls to
public recollection that some forty
years ago the British Minister of For
eign Affairs importuned the American
envoy to join in preventing France,
backed by the "Holy Alliance" from
recolonizing the .SnaniSh-.doHsio:
Since then England has looked on
with apathy while measures have been
taken to reduce Mexico to the condi-
ton of French colony. Mr.. Everett
remarks that such policy would have
found no favor with William Nv; with
Chatam, with Pitt, or even Canning,
{" but the age Of the Williams and
Chatams have passed" One OF the
motives inducing this policy is de-
sire to exhaust the immense resources
of France in gigantic schemes of col
onization which are beset with certain
difficulties and eventful failures. For
a similar reason England made no OPP
position to the French occupation of
Algeria. 1t employed 10000 French
troops.
There is a striking parallel between
the career of the elder Napoleon and
his nephew. The latter in his letter
to Gen. Lorencoz says, at is contrary
to my interest, my origin, and my
principles, to impose any kind of gov
iney may IreeIy r1IUusv tIut wnIcn
suits them best" In like manner the
first Napoleon by a secret treaty Ct
Fontainbleau guaranteed ''to his most
Catholic Majesty of Spain the posses
sion Of all his States on the Continent
of Europe, or to the south of tho Py-
renees." This treaty was signed on
the 9TH Of October, 1907, and on the
9th of June, 1908, Joseph Bonaparte
was declared King of Spain and the
Indies. The pretenco for this was
the anarchy in Spain, andmassacre of
Frenchmen in the tumults of Madrid.
The pretence in the Mexican project
is the anarchy in Mexico, and the
plumber of French traders. The prom
ise Of the two Napoleonsare identical,
stable government, commercial pros
perity, etc. The agencies employed
are the same. The pretended volun-
tary abdictions of Charles ~. and
Ferdinand VII. were not brought
about until good part of the PENN
sula was covered with French armies.
The voluntary tender of the imperial
crown to the nominee of Louis Napo-
leon did not take place until French
army was quartered in the City of
/ Mexico,
In both cases ",Notables" were en-
ployed. One hundred and fifty men
met at Bayonne TO confer the throne
of Madrid upon Joseph Bonaparte.-
One hundred and fifty men met at the
City of Mexico to place their country
under an Austrian sceptre.
The plot failed ultimately in the
first instance 1t will as signally fail
in its imitation on this continent.

The Chicago Times, which General
Burnside suspended for Comprehend
ISM" or disloyalty, or something else,
continues to be regarded as one of the
leading organs of the Democracy of
the Northwest. In q number of this
paper Just at hand we find'the follow
ing answer to inquiries as TO what the
Democrats would do if they controlled
the administration of tho government.
We give it our hearty endorsement.
ave are sometimes asked what
would be the positive policy of the
Democratic party if restored to power.
Their negative policies-opposition to
the abolitionism, imbecility and cor
ruption Of the administration--are
sufficiently clear, but there are some
who profess ignorance of what the
Democracy themselves intend to do.
First, they would restore the suprem-
acy Of our violated Constitution and
laws, and with this entire and absolute
liberty of speech, Of the press and the
ballot, and the sacred privilege of the
hddeds corpus.
They would free the loyal States
from the presence of military encamp-
ments and of all officers and soldiers
physically able TO take the field; thus
reinforcing our armies at least one
third.
They would abolish the system o.
arbitrary arrests for opinions sake
! they would abolish Provost Marshal'

L. 5. Christian Commemorative
officers OF this Commission throughout
the United States are sending out an
appeal to the churches for aid, and
with great propricty ask that a collcc-
ton be takon up ON Thanksgiving
Day to promote their important OBJ
jccts. We copy portion Of the Ma
tional Circu,c. which we have re-
cciyed:
The United States Christian Com
mission, as Il great national agency be-
tween the home and tho field, appeals
to YOU in behalf of our counuy's de-
Tenders, for Thanksgiving Day collee-
tons. Contributions of clothing, and
comforts, as well as of money are
needed.
Aware Of the excellent custom in
many Of the churches Of making col
lections for the poor on that day, the
Commission would not make this ap-
peal but for the urgent necessity of
caring for the soldiers. The poor we
have always with us, but the opportu-
nifty of benefting and saving tho men
under arms, if put of now, viii be
lost forever.
Such churches as may not hold SER
vice Thanksgiving Day, are requested
TO take the best opportunity before on
after that day to present the matter
and gather the contributions of the
people. Some churches are without
ministers to stir up their pure minds
by way of remembrance. In these
let the officers or some friend of the
cause take it in hand. Let no church
fail Of giving its contributions. The
urgency is great The call is instant.
The want is immense. A million men
in hospital and camp and on shipboard
wall in perishing need. The encour-
agcment to give is wonderful. From
every field our delegates returning,
tell us of their glad welcomes, of suf-
fcring relieved, lives saved, and souls
converted to God Nerer ,eas there such

that single man of these nine hun
dred thousand ever made thor appear
anoe. They soon threw off the mask
entirely, and got a Consumption law
TO compel others to fight the battles.
When the draft went into Massaehu-
sets that State, with the "hardy popu-
htion," of which we have heard SO
much, suddenly became the sickliest
spot on the continent. Forty-seyen
per cent. Il think that is the proper
tion,) were afflicted with divers disea-
ses, which rendered them incapable of
doing military duty. The others,
when they were drafted, either ran
away to Canada or else paid their
communication like tho rest of us.
1t is by these repeated breaches of
faith that the abolitionists got the
power which they are now Abusing
The Republicans, the Democrats and
the Executive administration have been
successfully overreached by them; and
they have used their advantages al
ways against the Constitution and the
Union. There are men among us who
would DO very indignant if they were
cheated in horse trade or defrauded
of ten dollars by a false token, and
yet they look without emotion on the
impostures by which the nation is
swindled ont of its lifc
Not only that part Of the Constitu-
ton which affects the relations of the
States is in danger, but those common
liberties which every freeman Of the
race we belong to has enjoyed for three
hundred years are IN imminent peril
L need not enumerate the outrages
perpetratcd on individual rights The
Democrats have steadily protested
against them, and resisted them wher-
ever they could. Every patriotic Re
publican has seen them with sadness
and sorrow, and if the abolitionists
have approved Of them, it is only as
part of their general system Of insult
and contempt for the Constitution and
laws.
Such has been the history Of these
encroachmcnts in all past time. They
begin with petty violations Of Justice,
and swell with frightful rapidly into
the most stupendous crimes. Their
first victim is solitary, helpless and
perhaps unpopular individual, but
they end by forcing the yoke on the
necks of millions.
The people of Holland live in
country whore the land is several feet
below the level of the sea. They pro-
tcct themselves against constant mum
dation by large earthwork, which
they call a dyke, extending all along
the coast. What theyare most troub-
led with is large . sIpsscieAfafkFat HaorSs
through their dyke. Now, rat-hole
is not very alarming thing in itself
but the action of the water makes 1T
larger every moment If it be neg
lected for n single night, by the time
the morning dawns the rat-hole has
widened into a huge crdrGssee, the ocean
goes pouring through it, and the whole
land is laid under water. SO IT is
with tho Constitution, which is our
dyke. If the smallest breach is once
made in it, "the overtoiling wave OF
arbitrary power" Which is continually
surging up against il, will constantly
enlarge it until all protection for our
rights is washed away. / tell you
gentlemen, if you desire to save one
remnant of your liberties, you must
watch the rat holes in your Constitu-
ton.

Democracy under Jefferson and Mad
ison, acquired and admitted Louisiana,
and admitted Ohio and Indiana p
What was it, in Monroe's Admistra-
ton, when the Democracy admitted
Missouri, Mississippi, Illinois, and
Maine? Wasitnot whether the Old I'm
ion should continue orwhether, as Mon
roe expressed it in his veto message,
there should be attempted the impossi-
bility of superior and inferior States p
The great and wise principle was then
laid down, and firmly acted on, that
the States should be co-equals-both
as to rights and liberties, and as to
obligations and duties. Thus, under
the noble principle of admission of
co-equal States, the country grew and
prospered. This was the work Of the
Democratic party.
And with this party, fidelity to the
Union was the ruling spirit of its life,
as il went on from year TO year, enact
ing measures that redounded to the
glory Of our country. "Ican scarcely
contemplate" wrote Jefferson in 1892,
to Washington, "a more incaicalabte erH
then the breaking tie Union into two or
more parts" And this sentiment he
was accustomed to repeat down to the
close Of his noble career--as at times
thedisunion element, North and South,
showed its hated head. Whoever
supposes that Secession and Abolition
disunionism are but two years old,
knows little-knows nothing Of our
political history but whenever and
wherever they appeared-whether in
the New England Hartford Conven-
ton, orelsewhere, heillustrious states
men Of the Democratic party exposed
them and denounced them with a fidel-
ity, TO which history has not yet done
full justice.
And every days revelations bear
witness to the undying devotion of the
Democracy, in the civil line and in the
roar Of the battle-to tho Union, the
the Constitution, and the Flag of the
Fathers of the Republic.-BOstOn Post.

NEdEo HUNG FOR MUEDEr.-Last
Friday, james Calender, a mullato,
was executed in the Jail at Lenox,
Mass, for the crime Of murder. The
Of the tragedy given by special re-
porter FOX the Boston Post:
The murder for which Calender
was condemned and executed was one
of the most brutal and shocking that
the community has ever known. On
Sunday morning, Sept, I, 1862. the
wife of Mr.. George A. Jones, residing
in the quiet town Of Otis, accompanied
by her two children, George A., and
Sarah T., aged respectfully four and
two years, went into pasture of the
village for the purpose of berrying,
while her husband was at ch urch.-
The husband did not return from
church until five o'clock in the after
noon, and then not feeling any special
uncasiness on account Of the non-re-
turn of his wife, went again TO church
in the evening. On his arrival home
at nine o'clock, the continued absence
of his wife awakened his fears, and on
communicating with the neigbors his
fears were not allayed, for none had
seen her or the children. A search
was at once instituted, and pursued
unsuccessfully until the afternoon OF
the next day, (Monday,) whenthe bod
les of Mrs Jones and the two children
wero found concealed under leaves
and brush in lot adjoining the ber-
rying place. The mangled condition
of tho remains showed that a most
brutal murder had been committed
Both jaw bones and the cheek bone
on the left side of the face of the moth
er were broken, and the skull badly
fractured, as if by blows from club
or heavy stones. The children's heads
were also crushed in similar man.
ncr, and the physicians were of tho
opinion that any one of the blows
would have been sufficient to cause
death. The body of the mother wa:
sadly bruised, with evidences that hel
person had been twice ravaged.

TnE WOUNDED IN Dun BATTLES
We have now in the United States
two hundred and thirty-iive general
hospitals for the use of the soldiers,
containing about eighty thousand pa
tients. TO show, says the New York
Advertiser, on what large scale our
battles have. been fought, as we do
everything else, il seems that during
four months Of 1862 there were treated
at our hospitals twenty thousand nine
hundred and thirty cases of gunshot
wounds. The wounded Of the whole
British army in tho Crimean war was
only a little over twelve thousand, and
their entire hospital accommodations
in the three years war would not have
suiliced for the wounded at either of
tho battles Of Shiloh, Antietam, or Get
tysburg.
