is not allowed 10 go on shore, and no body
is permitted to come off 10 him from the
I shore with any reasonable papers, so that
he will exercise his franchise under ditfl-
cuIties Again, one cannot but wonder
that the sovereign should still submit 10
such pretenses OF popular election, ont
probably he does il by way oil little Joke-
and il is not bad oue. Al The end OF MS
next term, however, and beginning of his
third one-supposing that any memory ot
franchises and votes still exists Ia that
country-he can cause an officer 10 pipe
n2 all hands TO the eangway /; the loyal
men TO cheer Tor his Majesty and get their
grog; bui any disloyal traitor TO get, instead
OF grog, three dozen well laid on.
Some may imagine that the progress oil
despo,ic power in the country must alarm
the people o: every province equally-those
OF New York and Massachusetts as well as
OF Indiana and Ohio. By no means. This
despoiism represents and is In fact the des>
potism OF New York and New England
over Indiana and Ohio: it represents the
power of The Aboiiionisls 10 rule the DEM
ocrats with a rod OF iron, and 10 make the
dynasty perpetual in their own ''crowd -
Herein the American Empire differs from
that of Austria, for whereas in the latter
Venice is coerced by Bungarians, and Hun
gary by Venelians, in the other Empire
New England has no fear, whatever, that
Indiana regiments will ever dragoon there,
as Massachusetts regiments are now keep
ing down the people of Indiana. In other
word this is not the despoism of dynasty
lit is the despoiism OF a section and
faction, which is a thousand times worse.
No wonder the Hoosier emperor, thus
backed and encouraged, lays his hand on
heavily. With large army and navy, and
Seward for prime minister he has advanced
lar on the road OF absolute power; all The
old and well-known agencies OF tyranny are
already familiar ic his Administration -
Amongts the rest plots The gunPo der,
the rye house, The meal tub plots, all sink
into insigniticance (like everything else in
those decrepit old countries) compared with
the gigantic conspiracy" just dragged TO
seems. whose object appears to have been
10 supply Mcclellan voting tickets TO the
army and navy, as in some measure 10
counieract The regular court elecIlone eering
of the commodores aud colonies. it is
quite probable that some Of these neIarious
ploters may be hanged. So ii goes. And
the speed al which il goes almost makes
YOU dizzy 10 look at. Already The new
regime al the North has gone far out of sight
OF eny European experience. The alleged
interference OF Louis Napoleon with The so-
ting on his own election as emperor never
approached in open, course, brazen brhtali-
ty 10 his managing of the election in Lin
coins "own way" in the land of the free
and fhe home of the brave. We trust they
like IL, 6u, confess shat we should not
Nay, may it not be surmised that they are
"2igeoned livered, and lack gall 10 make
oppression biitern Otherwise some brave
Democrat devoting himsel for his country,
would surely with bullet or poignard rid
the world o that grotesquely horrible Frank
ens,eIn- PROSTATE that obscene image with
front of brass and ieet o. clay-and try
whether the atmosphere would clear alter
the loul apparition is exercised and sent TO
the Red Sea. Perhaps The theory and
practice Of tyrannicide has not been ma
tureIy considered by he people OF that
country (: hitherto this has been abhorreo!
10 ali their habits and ideas. But it seems
thai America is destined 10 re-enact The
history OF European nations, with this diner
euce only that history here will move las
ter, and things will he done, of course, on
more stupeduous scale. Now TO execute
judgment upon a bloody lyrant has been
feature or history in all ages and natIons.-
We speak not OF julius Cesar finding his
Brutus, for the parallel would be too absurd;
bu, Murat found his Charlotte and her
name is saIuted and inscribed upon The
fash OF patriots, and forever
Named among The famousest
OF women sung at solemn festivals.
Not that we desire 10 see Abraham Lin
coin put oui of the way either by that meth
cd or any other. He suits US exactly as the
ruler oil All enemy's country; and our suS-
gestion is altogether in the interest OF any
OF his unfortunate subjects who may still
possess The spirit OF men and OF ireemen.
Such persons, if any, will hereafter be hu-
inflated by the reflection of having been so
transported with blind rage against the
South as 10 make that brute dictator and
kaiser over them and their children-and
the South not conquered alter all The
horse who invited the man upon his back
iha. he might be revenged upon the stag,
alter his enemy was hunted to death, could
not shake of The man. But if the horse had
sci upon his back not man bu: a aoaboon,
and it the stag was not hunted down, but
The horse was foundered-
