nj. EMILE DE GlRAnD1N, recently condemned
to pay fine of 1000 francs for writing in his
newspaper, La Liberte, an article headed "Les
Meillcures Destinees," has announced that he
will not prosecute the appeal, of which he had
given notice at the time his sentence was pro-
nounccd. He says he has had the most ample
satisfaction in the numerous letters he has re-
ceived from the best and most distinguishes
in France, rendering him their congratulations
and sympathy, and encouraging him in his no
BILE martyrdom in the cause of liberty. There
have been attacks on the Government in La
LiJerte since the date of the trial, every whit
as severe: as The one which caused his convic-
tion. We: have: only seen one, entitled 'll"y
a. pas ca sine scale ante ton'nisc,' in answer to
NJ RouuEn's reply to NJ. THEIRS. 1t was IN
all respects rs CALLING to the Government as
the first one had been.a. 1t seems TO be no easy
matter, after ALL to suppress criticism IN
France.

PAST AND PRESENT.

When N1EBUHR, the historian, in the first
quarter cf the present century made the tour
of England, he wrote to his father that he was
being whirlcd in stage-coachcs over The roads
at the rapid rate of seven miles an hour, and,
therefore, was unable to enjoy the scenery OF
the country through which he was passing.
This we read some years ago with smile, con-
scious of the superior facilities for travel we
enjoyed on the South Carolina Railroad: but
now we fear, we have no longer any reason
for such congratulation. We have been out
stripped There are now railroads in other
parts of the world that make better speed than
the aforenamed venerable corporation, while
at the same time the traveller enjoys equal, II
not greater comfort than weare accustomed to
on the cars that daily make for this terminus.
Thus we read of cars on the Michigan Central
Railroad, which not only have elegant parlors
and state rooms, but have in addition culina-
ny department, by which the most recherche sup
plies can be handed into the drawing rooms
and every luxury furnished that can be asked
for or desired in tirstclass hotel; anu all This
while The (no longer impatient or weary trav-
elcr is getting on toward his Journeys end at
the rate of forty miles an hour.
We need 40 longer envy the proud and llxu-
rous Queen of Egypt, beneath her purple
awning and her dainty silver oars. Had she
lived in our day, she would certainly have pre-
ferred to make her journey in the plymouth
Rock (the name of one of the above mentioned
new cars at Detroit). Is not this the age OF
progress, when an urwashel "EIoosier" may
ride in state greater than was al the command
of the most luxurious monarchs of the East

/. ,ANNEXATION.

sss;Whesnr: esnr: sMr: SEWARD recently made a pur-
chase of 45O, 900 square miles Of Russian Ter
ritory, and s.annexed'' it to the United States,
some ayerred he had presented the country
| with o ssuckedvrange,' and others ttst' he had
got a. s'big thing en- ice;" but bevc2l this we
have heard of NO serious complaia. As far as
we know, the question was not even submitted
to the stplebisci,e.'' The seals. walrusses,
Esouimaux, Indians and Russian fur-traders,
who constitute the population Of: that delightful
district, were not asked for their consents
this summary transfer of their allegiance; but
| as yet 10 objection has been heard Of from
them Annexations are not SO .peaceably con-
summated in Europe. Rivers of blood are shed
before IN acre even Of royal domain is permitted
to change masters But, notwithstanding these
sang,,inary conditions such schemes are al
WAYS on foot Thus we find at this present
moment France casting a covetous eye upon
Belgium and the Bayarian Rhine Province,
Prussia with her grasp on Luxembourg, and,
in fact, on all of Germany not already
thoroughly Prussian. Italy has her eye on the
Tyrol, and the Ancient 1llyria. Greece wants
Crete and the other Turkish Greek Provinces;
and the Russian Eagle will swoop down and
gobble up the remainder of Turkey, perhaps
magnanimously resigning the Danubian Prin-
cipalities to Austria A great European war
may see some OF all Of these, and perhaps,
many other changes brought about.
We were led into this strain Of thought on
seeing an article in last Saturdays Courier des
Etats Unis, on "The Annexation of Belgium. %
NJ. OLIVIER, in his speech in the Corps Legis-
latif, March Is, said "France ought not to have
one hand constantly stretched toward the
Rhine, and the other toward Belgium; and for
this he said there was one reason stronger than
all the rest and it is this, that the populations
of those territories do not desire annexation. J"
The Courier des Etats Unis takes NJ. OLIVIER
severely to task for so indiscreet an utter
ance. 1t denies the premise, and will not as
sent to his conclusion. 1t maintains, on the
contrary, that if Belgium were consulted, Like
Savoy and Nice, by the voice of universal suf-
frage, large majority would vote in favor OF
annexation to France. Where did NJ. OLIVIER
get his facts? From rEcho du Parlcme'n
aud Independence BsIgeg lfso, he s relying
upon very unreliable authorities. The former
is IN official journal, and he latter is edited by
a Proyencal from Mai. Lies, and we have
never heard, says the Courier that he had
been called to that position by universal suf-
frage to represent Belgium before Europe
