The End Of Napoleon.

Napoleon Ill, late Emperor of the French. is a
prisoner of war in the hands of King William, of
Prussia That this Will end his political career will
be the hope of all who know how he gained power,
and how terribly. he abused it. If the memory of his
overthrow of the French republic were botted out
if the history of the horrible coup detat erased
if the thousand expressions of his reign, nclud
ing the suppression OF speech and of the press
to pass into obvon still would the crime of person
al government, the fearful injustice of the kingly
system, be amply demonstrated by his history. For
still there would be left the last two months, with
their awful record of causeess war; the sacrifice of
hundred thousand lives, the desoaton and misery of
one land, and mourning everywhere in another, as
the price of imp erialsm in him.
1t does not matter, now, what shall become of
Louis Napoleon. 1t matters very much what lesson
the French people shall learn from his crime against
them and against their national name and position.
They humbled in the dust by their ruler. They
are entitled to the kindly sympathies of generous
men everywhere. Their mistakes of the past will be
forgotten, if they rise to the dignity of great
tablshng representative government upon the ruins
of the Empire. If the end of Napoleon shall be the
end personal rule in France his surrender to Will
iam Sedan, will prove, in the result, the greatest
boon, not only to Frenchmen, but to the people OF
all Europe-Chicdgo Post.

SUPPORTS PRUSSIA Now.-The New
York Times, which at first leaned to the
Bonaparte side of the Franco-German
contest, has changed its position, and
now supports the German cause. It
says:
1.-THE cause of Prussia had become
merged in the larger and juster cause Of
a united Germany the dynastic ambi-
ton of Napoleon be subordinate to the
ill-regulated aggressiveness of a united
France. Instead of a struggle between
Emperor and King, we were called upon
to witness the battle of two nationalities,
the representatives., respectively. of OPP
posite and irreconcilable ideas, and en-
bodying types of diverse national charac-
ter. As between William, or Bismarck,
and Napoleon, Americans might well
have hesitated to bestow their sympa-
thy. But as between a people devoted
to Flooding industry, thrifty and intelli-
gent, earnest and wise in their aspirations
after liberty. seeking no further territor-
ial aggrandizement, but simply the quiet
consolidation of minor States which the
selfshness of petty sovereigns, had kept
divided, and people destitute of prac-
teal ideas of freedom, with no national
purpose but the glory of France, incapa-
bic Of the self control which is at the
root of popular government, and dazzled,
by the tinsel OF an empire resting upon
treachery and prolonged by fraud, it
was impossible long to pause. The great
body of the American people compre-
hended the situation at glance, and
gave their sympathy to the German
cause

A New IRISH ORGANIZATIoN.-A
new national organization, called the
Irish National Brotherhood, has lately
been put into operation. It's ramifca-
tions will extend over the several states
of the Union, with headquarters at St.
Louis. It has been formed by the most
advanced Irish nationalist to take the
place Of Fenianism and unite all factions
into a brotherhood. The principal fea-
lures of the new organization are: No
salaried officials; retention of funds by
local branches until required by the
Brotherhood in Ireland, and Central
Council, to consist Of seven members,
instead of president, chief executive,
or senate, formerly recognized by the
Fenians: Michael Russell, of New York;
Edward G, Kiel, of North Adams, Mass;
DAN Omodongon and Jno. L. Griffin, Of
St. Louis; Gen. Sweeney, of Cincinnati
E. r. Bonnorman, of Wilmington, Del. !;
and VIM. Longevey, of Keokuk, Ia;
compose its present Council.

THE Posr OFFICE DEPARTMENT

THE PosT OFFICE DEPARTMENT.
comparative statement has been prepared
by the Postofice Department., which
shows very favorably its financial condi-
ton for the year ending June 80, 1869,
only one quarter of which came under
the present administration. The expen-
ditures were $23, 1898, 1880; receipts,
$1S, 344, 51Q.72; deficient, So, 553, $40. IS.
Since Mr.. Creswen came in there has
been added to the service as follows: $50
new postofhces, GIG new money order
offices; 2,44S, 4SS miles of annual inland
mail transportation, and yet with this
increase of service the estimated expendi-
lures for 1870 are but $25, 581 ,O93. 90,
only 81, SS2, 961. so more than was expend-
ed on the interior service In the year
ending June 80, 1869. At the same
time the receipts of the Department are
rapidly increasing and the ratio of ex-
penditure diminishing to an extent which
is believed to warrant the declaration
that there will not only be no deficit at
the close of the current year, but justify
ing the expectation that the expenditures
will fall considerably below the estimates

POLITICAL.

The Republican Convention of the
Fifth Congressional District, according to
the notice in this issue. will be held at
Oshkosh, Wednesday, September 18th.
The several Republican Assembly District
Conventions will be held in this County
September 10th.
In asking especial attention to these
notices, it will hardly be required to
speak Of the necessity Of general atten-
dance at these meetings, so as to make
the expression of our choice as impress
i've and at the same time as unanimous
as possible.
We have always been and ever ex-
pressed ourselves In favor of Hon Phi
latus Sawyer, not only in regard to his
most efficient action IN Washington, but
also respecting his being continued, as
long as he ever may wish, in the office
he has now for FIVE years so honorably
filed, and only on his publicly declining
denomination, have we pointed to the
man who, of all others, ought to be elect
ed his successor, our honortd fellow citi-
zen, j. D. Markham. But as we learn
now, that Mr.. Sawyer does not think
that he would be justified in refusing a
nomination If it was rendered to him
unanimously or nearly SO, we can only re-
peat our unqualified preference for him,
and urge the Republicans of our County
to see to it, that only such Delegates be
elected to the Republican Convention Of
our District. as will pledge themselves to
a strict vote for Mr.. Sawyer. We urge
this the more because we know, that our
able Representative has been and still
is betrayed by some, Of whom he had,
and now has full right to expect better
things but in all these instances Mr..
Sawyer has shown himself of magnani-
nifty, possessed by but very few men,
and we but follow his noble example in
doing our bestfor his reelection, although
we had, by his own promises, good rea-
sons to expect quite different treatment.
We now only repeat our sincere desire
that the Republicans of each Of our three
Assembly Districts will put forth their
best efforts to elect full set of able and
sincere Delega les, who will honor them
selves and the grateful people they are
to represent. by voting unanimously and
invariably for the reelection of the man,
who has proven himself the best adapted
to represent our District at Washington,
the Honorable PHILETUs SAWYER.

Germany.

IF the present war in Europe results
in demonstrating the impractical bility of
purely personal government, and the
superiority of system Of education that
reaches the whole people, it willlhave
done a great deal to promote a better
civilization, and to hasten the downfall
of Kings.
Personal government is not fact in
which we recognize the ability or super
iority of sp individual so much, as the
inferiority and degradations of a people.
And if in the wars Of our times, the VIC
torious legions are to to be those of states
in which the people enjoy the largest
measure of Individual freedom, and pos
sess the highest average of intelligence,
new basis of progress and power will
have been reached, which must ultimate
ly revolutionize all the governments of
Europe, and introduce new standard
of rank among the nations of the earth
The sentiment of nationality which is
celebrating all the minor German powers
and welding the people of Germany to-
gether into one great nation, IS not suft-
Gent to account for the invincibility of
their armies. For in this respect they
are in no wise superior to the French.
In both the wars in which Prussia has
lately engaged. that with Austria and
this with France, she has brought into
the field, men who are the product and
the representatives of a new era in civil
ization, in which religious freedom and
the education of the masses, are the ami
mating and distinctive principles. In
both of these elements, Prussia is far In
advance Of any of the nations of Europe
and the result will, be to make her the
first of European powers, and to place
her III the van of European civilization.
The results of our late war confounded
all the prophecies of monarchists. The
idea which had been entertained by the
greater portion of mankind was that in
order to carry people through great
war, the powers of government must be
concentrated Our war demonstrated
the reverse of the proposition to be true.
And, although Germany is fighting under
King, the power she manifests, that
which wins her victories and fixes her
status, is not of monarchy but of the
people; and the philosophy of her history
as we'll as the influence of hef example
during the present generation, will do
more to modify monarchy and make it
the representative rather than the depos-
itory Of power, than all the events that
have occurred in Europe since the Re
formation.
The old society in which ignorance and
superstition are the foundations, will 60
down before her wherever they meet,
and she will be known and recognized as
the Apostle of religious freedom and
universal education Chicago Post.

try, and wo'.id probably accept it if nominated. Ii
is of course 9asy for President Grant find many
persons VINO would accept but he Will not find

more Americanism than Senator Howe.''
Senator Howe cannot be spared from
his present position, which we want HIM
