Ansirs-Its Consequences.
The French Revolution, in the last century,
was the commencement of the struggle which
intelligence and spirit Of progress undertook
| against the blind enoroachments of despotssm
| upon the rights of mankind. As first effort,
| II was necessarily crude and uncertain, and
when it had attained success 1t fell from the mere
fact that the people were unable to appreciate
the inestimsble benefits and advantages OF self.
government. After having successfully COM
batted all Europe, France fell into the arms
of the Corsican adventurer Napoleon, merely
because she was fearful Of the future, and hav
ing gained her liberty. knew not how to use it.
When the republic Of France became an en-
pire the despots OF Europe breathed more
lightly. They felt that for the time being great
danger, menacing their continuance OF fpower-
nay, their very existence bad passed away for
the moment and they revelled 10 the conviction
Of returning safety. S,S
But the fat against them and their bad rule
had gone forth, and in the far West new re-
public was making gigantic strides towards
the attainment of power and influence. The
time came at last when this republic, the
United States of America, doomed over all the
empires, monarchies and aristocracies Of Eu-
rope as perpetual, an inevitable menace. The
tyraanized people Of the Old World saw the
power and prosperity Of the new government,
and they envied and craved for similar institu-
tions It was evident, from the spread of this
desire, that the period was fast approaching
when all Europe would rise against her tyrants,
and those in power quaked with fear. At this
moment and in the hour Of it's greatest pros
perity, the American republic was assaied by
traitors A few madlnen, blind to the COM
monest instincts Of self-preservation, undertook
in fatal hour to destroy our glorious Union.
Taking advantage Of the rawlings of our foolish
and nearsighted abolitionists and negro-wor-
shippers, the traitors at the South famed their
internal, treacher0us blaze until it ignited
large portion Of our land. In the light of this
accursed bonfire the despots Of Europe danced
and revelled. They hastened to throw fuel upon
the fire; for they foresaw in the results of the
rebellion good for themselves. They hoped
that for centuries to come the traitors OF the
South had rivetted the chains of those
European nations aspiring for freedom,
and gleefully did the despots bail
the rebels. They fastened to accord
taem unequivccal sympathy. They were
treated as belligcrents; they were aided with
money, with arms, with ships, with encourage
ment OF every nature, and the loyal govern
ment and people OF the American republic
were reviled, spit upon and DETAINED, their
ruin eagerly hoped for and continuously
prophesied. a-aa
In spite Of these adverse circumstances, the
people Of the North have successfully battled
enemies, and, like France under the first re-
public, they have maintained their cause. Un-
like the French. however, the people Of this
country are aware Of the advantages and
benefits OF self-government, and, having fought
for them, they will maintain them. II is now a
mattor beyond all doubt or cavil that ere
many months have cla-sed tic rebelliou will
have been crushed, and this government will
have asserted its great power aud influence by
that very result. Then, with an immense army
and the most formidable navy the world ever
saw, we shall be both able and willing 70 repay
to the dcspots Of Europe the debt we owe
them. III will and malice we shall repay
by deeds, not by words. We shall
first drive the French from Mexico. With a
host of famous and capable generals, admirals
of undoubted merit and enormous armies aud
fleets Mt their command, we shall dictate our
wishes as regards this continent, and England
and France will obey.
But worse results must accrue to the Western
aud Northern Powers OF Europe than being
driven from this continent Their subjects
when they see the American republic rising
from her troubles more powerful, more glorl.
ous than ever will feel renewed desires for a
like form Of government, and then we shall see
the thrones OF Europe crumble, and the whole
monarchical edfcc will be revolutionized. We
shall then hear no more Of Kingdoms AMI EN-.
pires Republics will become universal, and
mankind shall enjoy the benefits of liberal and
constitutional governments, and this as the di-
rect result Of the American rebellion, which
the despots Of Europe fondly hoped was the
death knell of this hated republic. As for
Napoleon, who in our hour OF need stole upon
this continent, he shall find that Mexico will be-
as we have so often asserted, his Moscow
utter ruin Of himself and of his dynasty Those
who have opposed or assaied us in our time Of
trouble shall be taught bitter lesson when we
shall have crushed the rebellion and recon-
structed the Union. Able then to deal with our
foes, we shall do 80 relcntlsssly for we have met
with nanght save deceit and treachery. The
lesson is bitter: its fruits shall be rs gall and
