The Return Of YaIIaad.shnm

The blessed martyr has again revealed
himself to the eyes Of the faithful. De-
lighting in the sensational, be appeared
like sn Eppsrition before the Democratic
faithful Of Hamilton and through them sd-
dressed the people of Ohio in Justification
of his re-appesrsnce in their midst. He
is represented as being in excellent flesh,
having for many months bsnqusted upon
the rich yisnds furnished him in exile by
the ten cent contributions Of the Democracy
of Ohio. That he regards his appearance
as something in the meteOriO line
Is evident from the tone Of bis remarks.
He looss upon the 10000 men who
voted for him as hackers, and asserts his
intentions Of remaining IN their midst.
II taken BY legal process, he proposes to
submit, forgetting that if the government
should see iit to give him the benefit Of
such trial, be would fare worse than by
military court Mr.. Vallandighsm dex-
trously misrepresents bis case ss usual,
endeavOring to shift She burden Of his re-
sponsibility. But the Iswyer-lks plea is
very poor. That Mr.. Vallandighsm .is
ready, if he csn, to plunge the state into
war, is evident from the the temper Of his
address. L the great martyr, must stay
in Ohio, whatever the eoBsequsnces.
What the Government will do,
We ere not disposed 70 say. We
apprehend, however that the country
would not be seriously imporriled by
anything he may do or say. The fact is,
his appearance, just now, will be great
affection to the Democracy, He is elected
to 60 to Chicago. He will prove, If he
goes, great elephant, and the anxious In
quiry will he, what shall be done with

han can be accommodated to close quar-.

has SO profound horror.
Mr.. Vsllandighsm made very feeble
attempt to justify himsaf in bis present
rsturn, endesvOring by TeiCeratins the
same ideas he advanced year ago, 10
prove that his arrest was unjust.
Mr.. Vallandigbsm knows why ne was
arrested and bsnished. his public speeches
were calculated to produce desertions from
the army. Hence he was condemned.
For this he should have been sent to Fort
Lafayette, and for this he may yet see IFS

RIaximIIIan and wife IN nT.xIoo,


At last after the fevsrish Autterings Of
a half years European diplomacy, Maxi
milan is landed upon the shores Of bis
new empire. Represented By the French
to be the choice Of the people Ct Mexico,
he ought to have been welcomed by admir-
ing crowds Of Mexiosns anxious on bend
ed knees to attest their loyalty to the new
crowned hesd. The enthusiastic Max.
naturally hoped for magnificent pageant
Of popular enthusiasm RH the way from
Vera Cruz to the capital of the New
French Em ire. Having abandoned the
arts Of navigation for the purpose Of re-
plenishiRg his pocket out Of the rich
mines Of Mexico, it was certainly very
cruel in the people Of that country, who
we're said to have chosen Max. for their
new King, to refuse such an ovation to
him on his landing as would have be-
tokened heavy profits to the Austrian
Admiral. Alas, that 8 people wac are to
be ruled over could not confer any popular
favor to indiosts how glad they felt upon
the arrival Of the new Emperor, Maxi
milan the First.
The poor Empress, wife OF Max, was
also subject to similar popular demOnstrs.
tions, Two French ladies, VIC are told,
alone received tbe Empress. But this,
said the French authorities, was due to
the fact that ladies in Mexico we're unse-
eustonsd to popular dszeDstzatisEs, On
the whole tho wretohed fares of recep-
tio1, was a most miserable affair.
The Emperor on arriving issued pro-
clamstiOn to his subjects. BE was evident
ly greatly affected in psnning bis iusugu-
raj address. he says: "Mozioans, you
have desired me. 1 deliver myself up
with joy" BE then makes promises Of
building up 8 strong empire based upon
equity and justice. A few more weeks
will show the character Of the French de.
signs, and the day cannot be far distant,
when French intervention will be met by
American protests, more Bignihcant than
the adoption Of resolutions by Congress
or by any political conventions:

Slavery stiII their Idol.

TIE two votes recently taken in Con
gress, affecting the interests of slavery,
show how the Democracy are yet chained
to the juggernsut Of slavery. Il has been
the source Of their political power in days
gone hy, and 10 iBjure it is to destroy
themselves. On the vote to abolish tie
Fugitive Slave Law, which happily passed
the House and n5E awaits the action Of
the Senate, and the vote to amend the
Constitution, the Democrats Ia Congress,
Of both the war o. peace species, were
found on the eide of slavery.
The great struggle, the iBternociue war,
which has been progressing for some time
among the shivering, distracted Demo-
craey, is gradually drawing to close in
the triumph of the peace or pro.slsvery
factions. From the action Of the Demo-
cratic Congressmen we infer that they are
ready 10 peril what little remains Of the
old strength and glory of the Democratic
party, in enc last effort to sustain slavery.
What a pitiable spectacle it is, in this hour
Of our history to see party once the
champion Of freedom, now trucking in
Its dying agonIeBI 10 the cause Of all It's
woes and ruin.
