where it merely waits, perhaps, upon the
tide to 60 ont upon the Baltic and At
lantic and seek new victims upon other
shores. The march Of the scourge
across the European continent has been
slow, but the journey is at length ac-
complished, and it's next halting place,
when it's march is resumed, no one NAV
tell. That it may find it's way to Ameri
Gu is not impossible, and as tho authori-
ties of every city, town md village on
the continent have had fair warning Of

tions have placed upon the shoulders of
lesser corporations and humber indivi-
dnals in cases OF calamity occurring by

The PEACE OF EUROPE. recent
imperial aud ministerial meetings at
several places in Germany. and more es-
pecially the inference between Bismarck
and Won Beust, at Gastien, have given
rise, as has heretofore been shown, to a
variety of rumors. A treaty between
Austria and Germany, treaty between
Germany and Italy, and triple alli-
ance" to which each of those powers
subscribe. have severally and collectively
been set forth either as the accomplished
or prospective results of these confer
enoes. To-day the report assumes a
more extended shape. and, according to
the Free Press, Of Vienna, "a league for
the preservation of the peace of Europe
has been formed, and Austria, Gormnny,
Italy. and perhaps Russia, are it's adhe-
rents. :" The latest previous dispatches
gave quite different view of the situa-
tion, placing Russia outside of the
ring" and exhibiting a combination
designed to neutralize an alliance of
France with that power. It is evident,
however, that pacifcation is the great
object Of these conferences. aud not, as
some journals persist in maintaining, q
mere royal game Of chess.
---e\
The concluding passages of General
Ewing's speech present so forcibly the
mission of the Democratic party, that
they deserve q conspicuous place in
every journal devoted to the rights and
liberties Of the people. We cannot com
mend them too highly:
In this contest the Democratic party
is the sword and buclsler of the people.
It has fought every existing abuse. and
tried to apply every appropriate remedy.
Though sometimes controlled by slavery,
and racked by discord and by war, it
has kept the faith in the people and free
government, which Jefferson, its glori-
GUS apostle, taught. It represents no
faction, but the whole people,; no SEQ
ton, but the whole country.
1t is not white mans party, or
black mans party; poor mans or
rich mans, Christians or nm infidel's
party. It is the peoples party. It will
tramplo on no man, and give no man
preference before the law. It stands for
the reserved rights of tho people aud
the States. because liberty dwells with
them. It is jealous of every extension
OF Federal power, because the path to
consolidation leads on to despotism. 1t
fights for equality against privilege
Democracy against aristocracy- govern
ment by the ballot against government
by the dollar and the bayonet.
It looks to the people. aud seeks di-
rection and strength from them, whence
comes the inspiration of every great re-
form. And it now especially calls on
the masses Of the Republican and Labor
Reform parties-the "plnin" people, who
are interested least in mere party tri-
umphs, and most in such measures Us
will give to the workingman FUR share
of tho wealth he creates, while laying OH

Republican party. MI of whose policies

Now it is whispered that the Corean
war is even worse than blunder, and
that our naval forces we're either de-
ceived or made uso Of by speonlators
resident in China for selfish purposes.
Even the alleged incentive to the attack,
the massacre of the Grew of the Gen.
Sherman, is doubted, although this ca
lamity appears to be confirmed by Co.
rean dispatches. The result, it is
feared. will be very annoying to COM
merce and OF no substantial benefit
otherwise; as our prestige is injured, q
mischievous source of hostility has been
exoited, and in future shipwrecked sail-
ors will be exposed to greater atrocities
than ever.

There would appear to be something
in the climate of South America inimical
to the stability OF political institutions.
Even in Brazil, where the Government
is administered go literally and so wisely,
and where, consequently, is moro pros
perity than in any other community on
the lower continent, poltioal excite
mont has set in, having for its object the
overthrow Of the empire. Republican,
ism is aimed at, aud the movement is
said to be progressing we'll. It's origi-
nators assert that they arc Of America,
and want to be Americans. They con-
tend TINT the present form of govern
ment Is contrary to the rights and inte-
rests Of American States, and that it's
permanency will prove the origin OF
oppression at homo nnd perpetual
source of hostility and wars with the
peoples around them. It makes Brazil
an isolated country, not only in the heart
of America, but also in tho middle of tho
world. This is Ill very we'll. aud were
the people fit to govern themselves upon
republican principles, nothing is more
desirable than that Brazil should full in
line with the United States. But that
is not. by any means, certain. Except
ing in the case OF the Argentine Repub-
lie, the history of republics in Central

substantial and settled in character than
most of their neighbors, and the country
might prove even more worthy of respect
as republic than it has as an empire.
Fenianism in Ireland Aourishes de-
spite the many attempts of England to
crush it out of existence. To the de-
monstration under the very windows of
the Prince of Wales, which ended in the
late Dublin riot, succeeds the ovation to
the French deputation in their departure
from Kingston. A procession escorted
the delegates from France; the bands
played American, French and Irish airs;
the police scowled at the people; and the
populace looked with no favorable eyes
on the civil guardians of the English
power. Fortunately, the ill feeling
vented itself in nothing mora serious
than these mute exchanges Of ill-feeling,
and the Fenians honored those when
they esteemed their guests in peaceful
triumph. To render still more invidi-
GUS the difference in the receptions ac-
corded by the Irish people to the English
royal family md tbs delegates from
France, an attempt was made recently
to destroy. by means of gunpowder, the
statue of George ~, at Kingston. The
explosive was SO olumsily placed rs to
merely blacken, and not seriously injure
the effigy of royalty; but the act is none
the less significant in the chain of evi-
dence that Fenianism is more vigorous
and bitterly persistent in Ireland than
in the United States, though the English
journals tried hard to persuade their
renders to the contrary few months
ago.

determination Of the people of Alsace

Of the conquerors Of France With ex-
ultation it is announced from Paris that
%, 600 Of the inhabitants of Strnsbourg
have left their city to escape the Teuton
rule. seeking now homes in Franco md
in this country. With the usual enthu-
siastic short. sightedness, theso irrepres-
siblo sons OF fair France forget TINT this
self expatrintion Of loyal Frenchmen
from the conquered provinces. but leaves
room for emigrants from the new empire,
who will gladly hasten to fill the places
vacated by the enemies OF the Teuton.
And if this exchange Of the Inhabitants
goes on for u twelve month OF two,
Strasbourg will become ns Tcutonic as
Berlin. And the snme will hold good of
all Alsace and tho Province of Lorraine.
Thus thoroughly Germanizel there will
be left no hope for France to re-possess
herself Of the late provinces save by tho
rude arguments of pitched battles. Ger
mans in Alsace and Lorraine are not
likely to enter into plots to expand the
territory of the President, Emperor or
King ruling over Franco.
