NJ. Olivier has, in few words and shrewd
ones stated the Ministerial view of the French
situation After remarbing with some truth,
that transformation, in a constitutional sense,
has been gradually going on in France, he
concludes: 1--WE ask that the same sanction
"that was given to the autocratic Constitution
abe given to liberal Constitution. | confess
"that we have no measiness respecting the re-
"sult, for the nation is placed between reaction
d" and revolution, and will choose what we offer"
NJ. Olivier, though highly plausible in some OF
his announcements, has not been always happy
as, for instance, with respect to the cases OF
the Princes BonapaTte and Murat, and the
Deputy RochefOrt. There is a risk in placing
a people between reaction and revolution, which
Over-cOnfdent statesmen may not be able at
once to see. France does not desire war, but that
is not necessarily proof positive that she desires
empire.

1t will hardly be discreet in the ship
carpenters to refuse to accept the tender of
more work at less pay which the ship-builders
have virtually proposed in the reduction of
wages from four to three and half dollars
per diem. Neither the condition of the trade
nor that of the wOrkmen will Justify an in
considcrate strike. Existing high rates Of
wages in this branch of labor have forced
shipping merchants to send their vessels to
other ports for repairs; and, as a natural con-
sequence, workmen have for a long time past
had little regular employment. The proposed
reduction of wages ought naturally to make
work more plentiful. There is not the shadow
of doubt that the refusal to reduce will drive
Shat little there is away.

The EuPpip1 Post truthfully saws:

Canada is losing its population. The people COM
ingt The United States. The Canadian Government
takes measures to encourage immigration to supply the
deficiency, but the immigrants do not remain there. OF
the 5000 who landed there last year. only 10 900 remain"
Canada, be it observed, is enjoying the
blessings of low Revenue Tariff. Her farmers
have that choice of "two markets "-the do
mestic, and the foreign-which The Post and
its school delight in. Their Public Debt is
moderate, and their internal taxes are light.
If Free-Trade were the true policy, they would
be enjoying signal prosperity-but they are
not. A farm on our side of the line is worth
considerably more than one located just across
the border; and the industrious classes are
coming away from cheap land and cheap labor
to share the benefits of Protection. Should
not these facts induce reflection

Gen. SanbOm's letter on the late Indian
outbreaks does honor to his head and heart
If any reader wishes to obtain a clear idea of
how Indian wars are produced, let him peruse
the Generals statement of our unjust treat
mcnt of the Dakota tribe. The story Is
simply one of unfulflled promises
and deliberate treachcry-thcre is 10
other word for it-On the part OF
the United States. In concluding the treaty OF
1851, our Commissioners conceded the Dako-
tas the Platte Valley for forty years, but Con-
grcss in ratifying the treaty arbitrarily changed
the time to ten years. On the expiration of
that time, the tract was invaded by United
States troops, and war lasting five
years ensucd. 1t resulted in another treaty
which, as Gen. Sanbon says, has "been
utterly dsregarded by the United States"
1t was this tribe which, smarting un-
der these provocations, lately attacked persons
at Cheyenne and other posts and towns To-
Gated in their hunting-grOunds. 1t is this
tribe which threatens to precipitate upon us q
war which cannot cost less, says Gen. San
born, than S5O,OOO,OOO. And we might have
peace by paying the $4,000 which the broken
treaty pledges us TO pay. In other words, we
may have peace by keeping our word

The N. y 1TmeS-after discussing with The
World its late structures on certain private let
tiers read in defense of Macfarland-says:
"THE TRIBUNE objects TO criticisms alsObut that
is only natural The public will see many reasons why
IL should try to prove that very unknd not to al
low Mrs. CahOuns letters to slip out OF sight It's argu
ment is this: Mrs Calhoun wrote in praise of A, and
therefore she ought to enjoy perpetual immunity OF cri
csm. Was there ever anything SO childish 7"
The Times will please to understand that we
object to the falsehoOd of its assumptions,
the malignity of its misrepresentation, touch
ing those letters. Set aside the burglary and
larceny which gave them to the public, and
judge them simply by what they contain,
and not by false CLOSES and perversions, and
there is not line in them that the writer
should wish to blot. A woman just above
want, struggling bravely and working arduously
for her bread, reaches out hand to help a
friend whose needs are more urgent and who
is more heavily overweighted for the race of life
than herself. That is the whole truth. What
ever evil may be made out of those letters will
have its origin in the heart of the commentator,
not in the letter nor the spirit of the text.

The new Constitution, however, wa
not a very imperfect or hastily con
