THE CRITICAL STATE OF THINGS IN
FRANCE


From the NJ Y. Herald
Cable kilograms from London convey the
important intelligence that the Emperor
Napoleon the Third IL decidedly ILL and
that his sickness is of an ALARMING character
as regards the probable result of the attack.
Private advices from the French capital repre-
sent that his Majesty experienced a paroxysm
of disease which was attended with very con-
siderable suffering during Saturday. and that
he remained, Notwithstanding his naturally
buoyant constitution and almost wonderful
power of recuperation, exhausted from its
effects on Sunday. 1t was not Anticipated that
q fatal result would ensue but the SYMPTOMS
as we are told, were then decidedly calculated
to excite uneasiness in the public mind I'm
easiness and excitement were consequently
felt, and the illness of the Emperor is
new universal topic, not in France
only, but throughout Europe, The daily bul-
letins from his physician do not command
the public confidence. Meantime we have no
doubt the discussions and propositions con-
sidered in the councils of state in view of
possible contingencies are of the utmost inn
portance The action of the Senate, how
ever, in rejecting by vote of one hundred
and thirteen to nine, an amendment to the
SenGtuS ConSultaan proposing liberal reforms
in the constitution of the Senate, has the APP
pearance of a reactionary movement in favor
of the Emperors personal governments and
this vote is calculated to create suspicious as
to the sincerity of Napoleon in his promised
liberal programme. The one hundred and
thirteen Senators who voted against the
amendment may, however, have been gov
erned more by their personal interests as
Senators than by the wishes of the Emperor;
but, whatever the inspiration, the vote was
for imperialism and against popular conces-.
sions.
In every point of view the vote is remark
able, and particularly so in the face of the
Prince Napoleon's earnest appeal in support
of the amendment The imperialist journals,
it appears, express great discomfort at the
Princes speech, and say that he went too far;
but the general opinion is that the Prince dis
played great ability and liberal spirit which
commands the sympathy of the people. All
this is very significant and we shall not be
surprised if henceforward the Prince Napo-
leon shall advance from day to day more dis
tinctly into relief as the coming man for
France. He is universally recognized as not
only possessing in his personal appearance a
most wonderful likeness to Napoleon the
First, but as also possessing the Napoleonic
grasp of mind in q remarkable degree, and in
full accord with the liberal and progressive
ideas which mark the universal spirit of the
age. The Prince Napoleon is a man of great
intellect, great thinker and from the signs
of the times he is destined to become great
actor in the reconstruction of the affairs of
France and of Europe, should his cousin be
called away.

BAD FOR PENNSYLVANIA.

From, the ". Y. World.
One of the suspicious incidents of the
Gettysburg reunion is that certain loil traf-
fickers in dead men s bones have bought up
considerable quantities of the land on which
the great battle of 1868 was fought. A second
suspicious circumstance is, that it is stated in
the press dispatches from the scene of the
late humbuggery that a movement was on
foot to secure the purchase of the battlefield
by the Federal Government, in order to
maintain it as public property forever here
after IN te1YOrem of all Rebels; and a third
incident, supplementing the other two, is
that, cheek-by-j owl with the openly known
manipulators of the land purchases, we find
Geary, Governor of Pennsylvania. 1t is
Geary who ''marks out with such detail the
lines upon Culp's Hill-that hill which is not
as yet bought up, but upon which the land
buyers have their eye; it is Geary,
too, who is master of ceremonies at
the grand ball where such graveyard
capering was done; and, finally, it is
Geary who departs straightway Culps Hill
is looked at, and rushes forthwith into the
Gubernatorial canvass now going on IN his
State. Now, reading all these things, what
conclusion is there to arrive at save that
determined movement is on foot, first, to buy
up this battlefield at low rates; second, to
sell it out to the Federal Government at an
enormous advances third, to still further de-
plete the Treasury under the plea of restoring
the field to its appearance at the date of the
struggle, and then enclose it and keep it in
expensive order and, fourth, if the effort fail
before Congress, to renew it before the Penn
sylvania Legislature? If the job goes through
Congress, then we are all plundered; if it
goes through at Harrisburg, why, then let the
taxpayers of Pennsylvania look out. From
some indications, and among them the fact
| that the ESrinu' in this matter is necessarily
almost entirely local ring, we are inclined
to think that at the final assault the State
rather than the Federal Treasury will be the
objective point. How far it would facilitate
the successes of the raid to have Governor
Geary reelected, is for the people of Penn
sylvania to consider in the light Of what ha'
been here said.

ALL HAIL TO PERU.
From The n. ]. Sun.

From the N. y. Sun.
One of the youngest members of the Ameri-
can family of republics, Peru, has eclipsed
her older sisters by holding out the right hand
of fellowship to the heroic Cubans, and by
formally acknowledging the national indie
pendence of Cuba.
This example will no doubt be speedily fol-
lowed by the other South American Repub-
lies, excepting perhaps the Argentine Con
federation, whose lruler, Sarmiento, acts as
if he were vassal of the slave empire of
Brazil
Soon we may hope to see Peru, Chill,
Ecuador, Bolivia, Colombia, Venezuela, and
Mexico cooperating in Cuban waters against
the Spanish fleet, and proclaiming with united
voices the abolition of slavery and the free
dom of Cuba. Luckily for them, they have
no Alabama claims, and General Grant is not
their President

THE CLOUD IN THE EAST.

From the NJ Y. Times.
There is storm brewing in the East No
Oriental potentate who did not mean mischief
would have written letter such as that which
we recently published from the Sultan to the
Viceroy of Egypt. 1t was intended to pro
woke resistance, and as it was received in
spirit of submission, it is at once followed up
by measures more suggestive of the bow,
string and the Bosphrous than OF a MID
paternal rule. The Sultan, it is stated
has sent a message to the Viceroy graciously
approving his loyal assurances, but com

LOUIS NAPOLEON ON AMERICA AND

The present Emperor of the French ex-
pressed, in his famous work entitled "Napo-
leonic Ideas," the following opinion on the
subject of American and Russian influence
81 see at the present day only two governments
which fulfil well their providential mission; these
are the two Coloss which exist, one at the eX.

"Providence has committed to the United States
of America the charge of peoping and of subduing
to civilization all that immense territory which ex
tends from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, and
from the north pole to the equator. Their govern
ment, which is q simple administration, has had, up
to the present time, but to practise the old adage
course in order to favor that Irresistible instinct
which urges the population OF the United States TO-
wards the West"
Thus wrote the Emperor thirty years ago.
His prophecy has been more than fulfilled.
| America and Russia are more and more be-
coming the arbiters of the destinies of the
Eastern and the Western World.
But who was it that attempted to arrest
their progress except the author of the
'Napoeonic Ideas?" Who sought to de-
stroy Russia in the Crimean war and America
in the Mexican invasion? At this day Bona

THE VIRGINIA QUESTION SETTLED.

".
From the N. y. Times.
The Attorney General has decided that the
present Legislature of Virginia will be a COM
petent legislative body as soon as the new
State Constitution under which it is elected
and the action of the Legislature thereon has
been approved by Congress, and that its mem
bers will not be required to take the test-oath
as insisted upon by General Candy, except for
such legislative action as they may have occa-
sion to take, if any, previous to such ap-
prevail
To secure representation in Congress the
adoption of the fifteenth amendment is made
a preliminary condition. This opinion, we
presume, goes to General Candy with the
force of an order 1t seems, at first, to settle
the difficulties between the General and the
Nlrglnlans, but on closer examination we dis
cover room for controversy
If there is complete Legislative power vested
IN the Legislature now, as expurgated by the
test oath, what is to prevent their organizing
turning out all who cannot take the oath and
proceeding to elect their Senators and trans
act any other Legislative business that SEEM
eth to them good? And if they can is it not
pretty sure that they will? And is not that
precisely the bone of contention which the
Washington authorities were asked to re-
move?
Since writing the above we learn from
our special correspondent in Washington that
the legislation of which the present Legisla-
ture is capable prior to the action of Congress
upon the Constitution is purely provisional,
and cannot permanently affect the status or
fortunes of either party in the State. The
order appears to have been well received, and
promises a restoration of peace and conf
dence to Virginia.
