mountain Businesses that appeared more i'm
pregnable than Gibraltar won victories above
the clouds; swept like sword of fire across
the continent, and carried the bright flag of
their country into the very recesses of the
rebellion. In the European war, also, there
will be no such incentive, no such battle-cry,
no such glorious motive as that which nerved
our soldiers to superhuman exploits. But all
that one general can learn from a careful study
of the campaigns of another Napoleon has
learned from Grant He has anxiOusly imi-
tated all the improvements which we have
made in our weapons, our tactics and our
transportation of troops and supplies. He
will conduct this war upon the American sys-
tenn, because it is the best and if Austria was
no match for him during the Italian campaign,
when his military ideas were comparatively
undeveloped, it is quite unlikely that be will
find the Austrian generals competent to cope
with him now that he has had the advantage
Of all our experience, experiments and sue

SECRETARY SEwARD's SPEECH AT AUBURN
The Secretary OF State has again made
speech 10 his friends and neighbers at Auburn.
1t rs just such a speech as we expected he
would deliver, and contains nothing new. 1t
lie in the same hopeful strain that has charac-
terized his utterances heretofore. He manages,
however, to give the reconstruction plan OF the
radical Congressional Central Directory some
very hard hits and to draw q comparison be.
tween their plan and that of the President,
which is somewhat damaging to the radicals.
But even in this he has said nothing new, and
only reiterated what has appeared in our
columns time and time again. He has endorsed
the position taken by the HERALD, but that en-
dorsement is Of no more importance than that
of some pauper on the notes Of VIM. b. Astor

War In EurOpe-Revival OF the Imperial
Game OF M p0Ieon the Great.

1ame Oh M pOIeOm the Great.
The little speech of Napoleon at Auxerre has
startled the listening nations of Europe. They
will accept it as the signal of another imperial
crusade of the armies Of France. He has played
his part as the champion Of peace, and now, as
the living embodiment of war,
Red battle stamps his foot and nations feel the shock
History repeats itself The restoration of the
empire in France under Napoleon the Third
means the revival of the imperial game Of Ma
poleon the First As the julius Caesar of the
nineteenth century Louis Napoleon may be
contemplating the empire Of Augustus; but ii
ia more probable that with Russia he medtates
another division of Europe between an Eastern
and Western empire Since the fifth century Of
the Christian era, when the Western empire of
Rome came to an end and the monarchy OF
France was founded. there have been several
attempts TO re-establish an Empire OF the West.
In the year 500 such an empire was proclaimed
by Charlemagne. who was crowned at Rome by
the Pope, as King of Italy, Germany and France.
But six years later this empire Of the great
Charlie. disappeared with its division between
his three sons. In any event its maintenance
in that day was impossible from the barbarous
and turbulent condition Of the various warlike
divisions, tribes and races Of the continent
In the latter half Of the eleventh century the
Pope hmsclf-Alexandcr II.-camed supreme
temporal and spiritual dominion over all the
Christian States; but few years later, in an
attempt to exercise this authority, his successor,
Gregory VII, was expelled by Henry ". of
Germany and died in exile. Charles v. Of
Spain and Germany for time established a
dominant Western empire, but was finally
driven to cloister by Luther and the Reforma-
lion. Napoleon the First, after his subjugation
Of the continent west Of Russia and Turkey, fell
at last under the coalitions bought by the gold
of England; but in exchange for St. Helena he
le!t TO England his legacy Of her present ma
tional debt, thus binding her hand and foot
under Napoleon the Third.
"within fifty years." said the Napoleon Of ST.
Helena, 'all Europe will be republican or Cos
sack" He doubtless meant that the continen,
would be governed by the DEGREES issued from
Paris or St Petersburg But the Cossack Of
that day has since been brought within the
pale OF modern civilization, and the power Of
Russia may probably to France be now
diverted to the eastward Russia and Turkey
are both arming for war; but neither appears
TO be in any way connected with the compiler
tons Of the Western Powers. It is thus apparent
that the game for dominion in this impending
conactwill be for q division Of Europe between
France and Russia. While thus relieved OF

Light. ON THE MEXICAN MUDDLE.-The extra
ordinary events now Transporting in Europe,
which foreshadOw general war; will throw a
calcium light On the Mexican middle. Aus
tria, Prussia and Italy will soon have their
hands full of trouble. Nothing that can now be
foreseen is likely to occur to avert the catas-
trophe that is about to involve Europe in hos
tlities and there is no telling how far neutrality
can be observed by any nation. England, in
deed, through the mouth of her Foreign Secre-
tary, has declared for non-interference; yet if
she undertakes to maintain that position after
her shameful treatment of Denmark in the
Schleswig- Holstein difficulty she will inevita-
bly, imperil her rank as great nation. Louis
Napoleon, in his Auxerre speech, has thrown
out a significant hint as to the probable course
of France. 1t can hardly be expected that the
coming conflict will be confined to Austria,
Prussia and Italy. Coincident circumstances
will most likely drag France into the scrape,
and it is exceedingly doubtful whether, in the
progress of events, England will be able to pre-
serve neutrality.
In any case Maximilan's affairs in Mexico
must undergo very serious change. The first
gun Of the European war will be the signal for
him to pack up his trunks and return home to
look after Miramar and the concerns of his
family in Austria. The house of Hapsburg
will need all his attention, for there are deeper
interests at stake in Austria than in Mexico.
This war, then, will throw a bright food of
light upon the foggy atmosphere of Mexican
politics, and probably bring an easy solution
to the present riddle in that quarter. We are
sorry for Macmillan, for he is most excel
lent gentleman-courteous, accomplished and
liberal in the disposition of the privy purse
but the fact is that he is too good man to be
o ruler over the disorganized Mexican people
and could never manage them to his satisfac-
ton. A mild and cultivated gentleman like
Macmillan would never suit them. They want
stern master over them; say such crusty
old hero as Santa Anna. The state of affairs
In Mexico, however, will be radically changed
by the approaching war in Europe, which will
do more to settle the question than all Mr..
Stewards diplomacy or the protests of our
Minister in Austria against raising volunteers
to aid the Mexican Emperor, which, we are
told, had the effect of disbanding several COM
panies raised for that purpose.
