An European OOpgresS-ApOther RumOr

Am European COngress-AnOther RumOr.
From The ". Y. Herald.
1t is authOritatively stated in one of our
late cable dispatches that "call for an Eu-
ropean congress will soon be issued by the
French Government" alias Louis Napoleon.
We do not much wonder at the rumor, nor
shall we be at all surprised if some such pro-
posal is actually made by the Emperor to the
other great powers. 1t is no secret, but fact
patent to the world, that a general congress is
one of the primary objects on which for years
past the Emperor's heart has been set. 1t is
not at all improbable that congress will be
brought together; but, unless we greatly mis-
take the present character and condition of the
different European Governments, a congress is
possible only on one condition. Its purpose
must, first of all, be distinctly and definitely
stated. That purpose must not be general,
but particular. If Napoleon asks an European
congress to aid him in answering the ques-
ton, What is best to do with Rome we
see no reason why his request should not
be complied with, nor do we think it at all
unlikely that it will. Such congress was
got together for the purpose of settling the
Luxembourg question. Such, however, is not
the kind of congress which Napoleon wants.
His object is to rearrange according to a
favorite plan OF his own, the nationalities of
Europe. He wishes to reconstruct the boun-
Diary lines, and we have little doubt that if
congress would crafty Napoleon's ambition in
certain directions, he would not be unwilling
to abandon his protectorate of Rome. No con-
gress, however, could do this but one which
was convened for the most general and indef-
mite purpose. Such a congress, we hesitate
not to say, is in present circumstances impos-
sible. We are not unwilling, however, to be
OenerOus If NapOleon submits To the decisiOn
of an European congress the final and unquali-
fed decision of the Roman question, he will
give proof of desire to do justice, and of
willingness to preserve the peace of the nation,
for which we have not been able hitherto to
give him credit.

also held him alOof from the conflicts and
hatreds alike Of parties and seotions--because
he is of a oalm self-oontrolling, equable tenn
per, welded naturally and unoonquerably to
justice and fair dealing-and because all men
know him to be a Jealous, disinterested lover
of his country and OF the principles Of its gov
ernment.
Nor do we share in the slightest degree the
Tribune'S fears that he will sacrifice any of the
principles of liberty, equal, impartial, and
universal, on which our institutions rest.
Those who hope for the revival of the class
distinctions of the past-who look to the fresh
degradation of the colored race, to the exclu-
sion from civil rights and political privileges
of men for any other cause than lack of merit,
will find no encouragement and no aid in
General Grant. If the Tribune has any fear
that General Grant will give oountenance or
liberation to any scheme which seeks either to
"reduce the blacks again to vassalage or semi
slavery" or to defraud the national creditors,
we are confident it may at once dismiss them.
Nothing in his history, his acts, or his deolara-
tions gives the slightest warrant for any such
apprehensions.
General Grants nomination, which we re-
gard as virtually made already, will cOnson-
date and harmonize the Republican party first
by ending all personal STRIFE all contest and
collision among aspirants for the Presidency,
and next by confning its action to the essen
tial principles and policy which the welfare of
the country requires. And his election will
put an end TO the war of parties and of fac
tions, by which peace has been repelled and
the restoration of the Union discouraged and
delayed.

sidential chair. Yet he gave tho Virginia
Bourbons good advice when, on their restora-
tion to power by Johnson, they had chance
to treat the blacks kindly, and threw il away.
We venture the guess that no man treats his
black servants better, as servants, than he
does.
There is a silver lining to most clouds. If
the elections Of 1867 had gone like those of
1866, we should probably have had some am
biguous, half-and-half shuffling candidate for
President to oppose in 1868; but the late
results have cleared the atmosphere decidedly.
A square, clean issue between the two parties
will now be made up; the sham Democracy
will select representative man; and for such
it has none better in its ranks than George II.
