NAPOLEON DEFINES HIS POSITION very
explicitly in letter which we publish this
morning from Wilhelmshohe. He says, among
other things, that II am the sole sovereign
who governs next by the grace of God by
the will of the people, aud I shall never be
unfaithful to tho origin of either;" that ''the
whole people, which has four times approved
of my election, must recall Inc by its deliberate
votes, else shall never return to France.
To make assurance doubly sure" he says,
''the army possesses no more right to place
me on the throne than had the lawyers and
loafers to push me from it." "Lawyers and
loafers" is good; as good as Bismarck's gentle
men of the pavement" Indeed, the whole
letter is good and Napoleonic. Read it.

MONEY TIGHT IN WALL STREET-When a
paugre dia6le picks pocket or lady acct
dentally takes few cents worth of candy in a
fancy store there Is a terrible hue and cry,
and the detectives make a glorious arrest.
But down In Wall street, where there is an
organized conspiracy against the well-being Of
society," and where the law of usury has been
openly and Aagrantly violated every day for
couple of weeks, the detectives and the police
are blind to the malefaction. Yesterday borrow
ers paid at the rate Of ninety-seven per cent
per annum for the use of money. Fortunately
this is the season when business is dull, other
wise the inconvenience arising out of such
dangerous conspiracy to clock up" money
would be of the most serious character.

from Albany to Rhinebeck distance Of sixty miles,
with ice six inches thick. AZ Catskil the Kncker-

She Is heavily laden with an assorted cargo. which

Of iron, have arrived from New York to repair her
injuries. She Is now surrounded by huge masses Of
Ice, and viii probably remain in her present posi-

The Proposed Monumon. to Farragut.

rae proposed NlOnul,cnt to Enrragut.
The proposal TO erect monument to the
illustrious sailor whose loss the nation lately
mourned meets with universal and we'll
merited favor. 1t is earnestly to be hoped
that the greatest care may he exercised in
selecting both the design and the site for such
monument. American artists should be
invited to compete for the honor Of supplying
designs, among which competent judges may
nation and of its great naval hero. The
competition should be free from all undue
influences that might expose the public to
wasting their money on yet another of the
monumental monstrosities which disfgure so
many cities, both in Europe and in America.
Undue haste-the raw haste which true art
rejects-should also be eschewed. Ample
time should be allowed for planning, dis
cussing and executing the work, so that
when finished it may happily illustrate that
old close relation between art and the national
feeling, without which, as Palgrave truly
asserts, the fine arts never flourish.
What Palgrave has said of England
is but too applicable to this country
that 'the course of our public monuments
generally runs with an ominous smoothness,
suggestive Of a prearranged job, and issuing
too frequently In work as far from art as
from nature" AS for the site for the pro-
posed monument, what would DO more appro-
pirate than the Battery, again transformed into
one of the most attractive promenades in the
city? Whatever form the monument shall
assume, 1t might fifty stand on the Battery,
where it would be daily saluted by the flags of
all nations.
