A Word OF Advice to Louis Napoleou

Word OF Advice TO Louis Napoleon.
We have word of advice to Louis Napoleon,
the Emperor Of the French. We have always
been in favor Of him since we met him near
London, many years ago, and thought him q
very modest man. On that occasion-predict-
ing the revolution of 1s4s in France-we in
quired Of him what he should do under certain
circumstances, and he replied that he was
in the hands Of destiny. This marked him as
modest man, and predisposed us in his favor.
Since then he has shown himself mean, gener-
Gus, pious, wicked, q perfect rascal, q perfect
gentleman, genuine scoundrel and first rate
Emperor. These contradictions In his character
have piqued our curiosity and excited our
interest; consequently we have made him the
subject Of careful study, and we now thorough
ly understand his principles-or his want Of
principle-and his policy.
After career Of wonderful success, during
which he has completely humbled the pride Of
England and avenged Waterloo, Napoleon has
made mistake. We need scarcely say that this
mistake is the Mexican expedition. We told
him long ago that this expedition would be to
him what the invasion of Russia was TO his inn
perial uncle, and we repeat that prediction
now. Lord Palmerston, who Is o very shrewd
man, foresaw the humiliation Of England In
Mexico, and therefore withdrew from any inter-
ference with the affairs Of this continent Spain
prudently followed Englands example, and the

Our Example TO the World-Ths Two
Great Phases Of the War and Their
Erect.
The Fourth of July has been celebrated with
great spirit in different parts of the country.
The celebrations have nearly all been more or
less military In character, and their general
tone has been that Of glorihcation for the
heroes Of the war. The sentiment of gratitude
to the men of the army and navy, who have
brought the war to its successful close, has had
a stronger expression than any other. It il
quite proper that that sentiment should be ex-
pressed strongly; but we hear less Of some
other things than we would wish to. There are
no comprehensive appropriations Of the real in
duence that this great war is to have. The war
is treated upon fully, its battles named one by
one, and its heroes cheercd with proper pride;
but no one points to the comprehensive philo-
sophie moral of this vastsstruggle, or leads his
hearers to consider what Its immense effect is to
be on the future Of this nation, on the future of
other nations, and on the destinies of the
human race.
And yet this would seem above all others to
be the grand idea of the time. There are two
remarkable aspects Of the war from this point
of view. We have just finished the greatest OF
all civil wars. This war, carried on entirely be-
tween the two sections of this country, has been
equal in magnitude to the greatest of mo-
dern wars waged between separate nations.
Our own country has sent forth armies equal
to those marshalled by Napoleon Bonaparte,
and at the same time armies equal to those
marshalled by all the rest Of Europe against
Napoleon Bonaparte; and with this force we
have concentrated into four years the same
great events and immense succession of battles
that in former times occupied twenty or thirty
years Of a nations life. What is the secret Of
tbisi How is 1t that we have been able to put
forth such an immense power in proportion to
our numbers, and to crowd forward events with
this wonderful rapidityf II is because we have
applied to the art Of war, for the first time, on
an extended scale, the inventions of the age
the vast discoveries Of modern science. We
have made full use Of the immense progress Of
the physical sciences to concentrate war-mak-
ing it terrible, but making II short
England and France hardly more than at
tempted the application Of modern science to
the little war In the Crimea. France made
partial use Of II in the Italian war--using
the telegraph little, the railroads little, and
rifed cannon q very little. II was left for u.s.
the inventive and progressive people Of the
age, to make this application on an immense
scale and TO develop It's full effect. All the
great inventions are ours, and 1t remained for
us TO show the world their greatest value. BY
US thousands Of miles Of railroad have been
used numberless times. That single fact has
taken ten years from the length Of the war. 1t
put the most distant points near to one another.
Armies, for whose weary months Of marching
the country would have waited with heavy
heart, were carried TO the vital points In 9 day.

Armies that for the sake Of supplies muA
have retreated and given up great enterprise
at the point Of success, found land Of plenty
brought to the doors Of their tents within
few hours These miracles were wrought BY
the railroad and the steamboat, and the tels-
graph wrought others. Generals that under the
old system would have waited months at dis
tant points, ignorant how to act were told In
an instant what to do. Armies at the most
widely separated points were moved by one
will with mathematical precision. All the
other applications Of science-as those to arms,
fertilization and ships-had their share of infu-
ence in this grand result This phase Of the
war must revolutionize the world, and there h
no nation on the earth that will not feel
the influence Of this in every year of its future
life.
The other grand phase Is that this was In
pure and simple reality the war of the people,
originated, sustained and finished by and for
the people. Compared to this wars in general
are duels filed with formality, in which one
king defes another, and each brings up his
men like counters at game, the miserable
counters being unconscious Of the cause and
careless Of the result. Here the people were the
active, initiating and impelling power, and tho
sphere Of the government was only to execute
the will Of this power. The government was
subordinate-an organization Of clerks that ar
ranged the points Of detail; the people was
the supreme will. The moral influence Of this
fact will shake the foundation Of every govern
ment on the earth which assumes that the
people are not the paramount power. And To-
gether these two phases Of our war-studied,
cogitated, written about, as they will be, for
fifty years to come-will change and regene-
rate other nations They will carry the world
forward with grand impulse. They are tho
levers by which the old societies will be broken
up, and they embody the ideas on which bot
ter ones will be formed. They are the sub
stance Of the great example we have ret, that
the world cannot shut its eyes to, and that u
must sec and feel and follow.

The NEW SOUTHERN Press. II Is very
amusing to observe the tone Of the different
newspapers published in the Southern cities
since the war was concluded. They ell came
out in most loyal spirit at frst but recently
many of them have been getting little wild
again. It is evident that good deal Of the
old leaven still remains 1t has become neces-
sary for the government to suppress one Of the
newspapers Of Richmond already, and It win
be curious to see how many more Of them win
have to be suppressed in Richmond or else
where unless they change their tune.

A SOUTHERN ADvENrunER-A few days ago
our Richmond correspondent referred to
rebel General Tochman, who has begun the
practice Of law in that city. This Tochman
came to this country from Germany or some
where and offered his services to this govern
ment Being refused, he went down to New
Orleans and attempted to raise brigade for
the rebel army. Whether or not he succeeded
we do not know; but the rebel authorities re-
fused to make him either a brigadier general
or colonel, and the rebel Congress threw out
bill for three thousand dollars which he
brought before them. Our Richmond cores
pendent should be more careful. These foreign
adventures never amounted to anything, on
either side, during this war, and the least said
about them the better. American generals,
not foreign pretenders, have preserved the
Union.

The Right use of Tools.

Many persons have but q limited use for the
same tool. The first idea we have Of a manure
fork Is to remove coarse manure, but 1t Is far
better than q spade in garden. 1t does not
require half the muscular strength that a
shovel or SPADE req uires, and the ground can
be pulverized much better. We use it alto
gether in the garden. When roots or weeds or
grass spring up in garden, they can be re-
moved more easily with fork than in any
other way.
Then there is the big hoe. We should not
know how to get along without one, yet many
persons never use one where we do. For dig
ging turfs by the road side, and for levelling
off knolls and hemmocks on meadows, no tool
is better. g There is the trowel, we think OF il
for plastering, yet for garden purposes NO tsol
is better. An old axe that will not be injured
by driving into the ground is always one tool
for removing forest trees. The crowbar, which
was made to handle stone, is an excellent ar
tcle to set the bean poles when the land is
hard. A thin shoeknife. which has been de-
signed to cut leather, is the best toel we have
ever found to cleft stocks for grating. A
bushel basket and q wheelbarrow are often
better than.oxen or drag for collecting sma IL
stones on land laid down to grass.-.haiHe FaY-
