I'LL at last ne was SWdlIOWeQ up by q
whirlpool. Alas there are some Gov
ernments whose appearances on the scene
of the world are in every respect analog-
Gus to that ofthe American juggIer their
history is summed up in these. Words
fearful scatfolding, terrible fall = On a
few stakes planted in the ground, they
raise a ~shapeless building composed of
fragments and bits borrowed from the
ruins of the past and when their task is
finished, their bastard building, as with
out utility as it is without foundations,
has only served to throw them headloug
from a greater height into the abyss.
What this amounts to is that raising q
scafoldjng is not bujIdjng. To appeal to
The Vulgar passions of the mob is not to
govern. One cannot bnild solidIy except
upon the rock" Surely these words
must now come back TO the eX-Emperor
as a curiOusIy accurate prediction of his
W great feat. He did, at great pains
and with much ostentatIon, erect a scat
folding out OF fragments of the ruins of
the paSt-his u%ucle's past,-Which has
served but for the same purpose as that
described by him,-to furnish him with
an al initial ClCF dllOl llOll Which 10 CuSJ
himself headlong into the gulf beneath.
Indeed, to none of the recent unstable
governments of France has Louis Napo-
Icons parable applied with greater force
than to his own. There has always been
something of the juggler about his other
wise sombre and sedate impersonation Of
the Imperial character, From the des-
cent on Strasburg to the telegram about
poor little Louis's "baptism of fire." there
has been visible at regular intervals in
the ex-Emperor's writings and actions a
certain amount not merely OF theatricalitv,
but of iII-judged and ridiculous theatri-
caIity,-that sort of theatricality which
arises not from social vanity, which is
often very telling, but from the indulgence
of moody and solitary reverie. The la
bOured rhOdomontade which he addressed,
from his prison at Ham, "to the Names
of the Emperor" on occasion of the re-
moval of ~BuOnoparte's remains from ST.
Helena to Paris, is a very fair illustration
Of the purely intellectual side of this deep
flaw in Louis Napoleon's mind. That
any able man should have written such
highf1oWn nonsense in the belief that it
would identify him in the popular mind
with his uncle, we do not in the least
believe. The rhapsody was written, we
are persuaded, not out of contempt for
vulgar minds which it was intended to
please, but out of the unsound supersti-
ton in Louis Napoleon's own understand
ing. He cried out TO the Names Of the
Emperor,-"The people have ~renounced
your gospel, your ideas, your glory, your
blood; when have spoken to them of
, 1870-10-18

our SuUlpLuOuS COFlcg63 ulSuaIHIHg JHC
homage of some, you have cast a single
glance on my sombre dweIIing.pIace, aud
remembering the cartsSes which you
heaped upon my infancy, you have said
Friend, thou sufferest for me! [ I'm salts
fed with thee" That is not the sort
of thing written to dazzle the fancy Of a
mob. 1t is the sort Of thing which occurs
to Il man apt to indulge moody reyeIies
of the subtle affinilies which connect him
with a great creative mind, whose career
he hopes, or at least eagerly wishes, to
initiate. Like the Imperial eet-up at
Strasburg, so ill-sustained by Louis Ma
po!eon's actual demcanour when intro
duced to the troops re,-Ilke the tame
eagle at Boulogne,-Iike many profoundly
superStitIous references 10 destiny
throughout his writings, this rhapsody
shows a trace of spurious metal in the ex-
Emperor's mind, which is not assumed
for popular purposes, but is ingraincd and
Inherent. The prisoner at Ham was, like
all solitary persons, deprived OF the aid
of that implicit social criticism on his own
most marked thoughts which living in
the world Of itself insurts, and therefore
HIS WIlJiIRS IlbU tuI iIQCu lIlOIG VI ll4t5
eXtatic ~Bouapartism about them than his
speeches or actions have since shown.
But YOU can see the same kind of fixed
and dreamy enthusiasm about his idea OF
raising mp in Mexico an empire Of the
"Laiin race" to balauce the Teutonism
Of the United States, no less than in those
dreams of destiny which have from time
to time driven his slow and hcsitatjng
judgment into mad projects, like the Bou-
Iogne descent, and, let US add, the lIi-pre
pared or u]nprepared invasion of Prussia.
The special characteristic of the eX-
Emperor's policy has been the constant
balancing between long-headed caution
and a craving for brilliant effects. At first
he was very prudent. The war against
Russia, which brought him into such close
alliance with England, was a by no means
dangerous stroke Of tentative foreign pO-
icy +; indeed, that such a Power as Eng
land Joined him in it showed how com
paratively safe, for a war policy, it was.
But his next attempt, the liberation OF
Italy, far more original, far more really
grand in conce ption-the only act, indeed,
of his reign on which he can now count
for anything like the deliberate praise of
posterity-was far more dangerous; and
this he himself knew, staying himself in
mid career, lest he should either in ur a
change Of fortune, or by succeeding too
completely give Italy more than he de-
sired or intended. Indeed, he soon found
that the main idea of his policy was one
far too potent over the minds of nations
to admit of being applied just as far as he
wished, and no farther; and the aim of

not to encourage slavery. he was not as
posed 20 understand the effect Of the political
or social position OF another country in an
indirect way, in reference to slavery, when
they had had such hard scutle with the
Democratic party to get rid OF u at home.
That patty bad stood By slavery so maniully,
so constantly and so persisteutiy, IN season
and ont of season, in any attack upon it,
that the country had trouble IN clearing its
skirts OF the great crime OF having got rid
1t.
1t was little too soon to start out on an
attempt 10 reform other parts Of the world,
Indirectly, through tariff system; especI-
ally, he thought, it would be well for some
gentlemen to tarry in Jericho until their
anti-slavery boards were grown beAore they
attempted to fight in that cause.
Mr.. Wood,said, regarding the sugar item
amendment in the spirit in which it had
been offered, that the gentleman's reply had
satisfied him Wood that all professions of
the gentlemen and OF his political friends in
favor of freedom and of extension of suf-
frage; Of giving governmental favors and
boops to Africans, were confined ex.
cusively TO United States for
elecioneering purposes. He wished
it distinctly understood that he was giving
members on the other side the opportunity
to show whether they were really friends
of the cClored man or not. The vote being
taken Oh the amendment, Wood called for
the count on the negative side, remarking
that he wanted-to see the friends Of slavery.
Naughter) The negative vote being taken,
he remarked that Kelly. Of Pennsylvania
was friend OF slavery.
The amendment was rejected.
Other amendments were offered py M.
Garfield, Of Washington Territory. and
Messrs. Winans and Iugersol were rejected.
Messrs. Sheldon's and AIlison's amend
ments were also r iected.
The committee tLen went to the next item
in the bill, VIZ: Clarified sugar, three cents
per pound. Allison moved 10 reduce it to
two and half.
Mr.. Smith, of Oregon, moved TO redWce it
to two and q quarter.
The subject was discussed by Messrs. ALI
son, Schenck, Smith, Garfield, Judd, Mar
shall, Logan and Burchard without dis
posing OF the clause, and, with the amend
ments still pending, the committee rose,
