Seine Of the Kentucky papers seem
to re very clearly Of the opinion that
this new journal does not come quite
up to the mark of its foreshadow wings

But do you think that this "restora.
ton" means that "thc war; destroyed
all principles, including secession and
Inc resolutions of '9S and that every
political principle which good men
have loved. and suffered and died for,

er eXpatiate a little further upon this
subject? We all know who it was
that killed Cock Robin, who it was
that Knocked Billy Patterson olt Of

cruel and remorseless as to make a
dead issue out Of the foundation

MARSHAL BAZAINE,

From the ~ Y. Times.
The testimony of the only newspaper COR
respondent who contrived to remain in Metz
during the whole of the siege of that fortress
was given to the world some time ago. 1t will
be remembered that it wss entirely adverse to
the supposition that Marshal Bazaine had
acted in good faith, either for the interests of
Napoleon III or of France. The eorrespon-
dent, upon whose views we took occasion to
comment at some length when they were first
published, was convinced that Bazaine did
not wish to break through the German lines,
and that his policy was shaped purely by con-
siderations of personal profit. His plan, as
surmised, was one of mastery inactivity. AS
matters stood when he was first cooped up in
Metz, something seemed likely to happen
which might be turned to his advantage. If,
as seemed probable, the Empire fell with the
army of MacMahon, Bazaine would become
the first or, indeed the sole, French military
authority. As commander of the largest
body of trained troops remaining to France,
he might make either peace or war, and not
improbably in either case become dictator.
Nearly all the evidence that has hitherto
reached the public eye confirms the belief
that Bazaine could, if he would, have burst
through the tolls that only imperfectly sur
rounded him; and, granting that he had the
power, there is no rational way of accounting
for his failure to do SO, except upon the
theory of selfish treachery.
We are not sure how far the statements of
the Vicomte de Valcourt, who delivered q
public lecture in London, April IL, on this
subject, are to be accepted concerning the
question. This gentleman was, however, on
the staff of Marshal Bazaine, and was after
wards Private Secretary to Gambetta. He
escaped from Metz, some time after its invest
ment, bearing dispatches from his com
mander. These were written in cypher, and
were fastened by ''a top-dressing of gutta
percha into hollow tooth" The Vicomte
was twice captured by the enemy and SEN
Nack-their policy being not to take people
o,t of Metz, but TO send others in. He de

The Russians, however, thought it mor'
importait that he should continue tC
diminish the provisions in the be
leaeuered tewn than add to the popu
iatlon OF she United States. Now
on these OCCASIONS, the Vicomte passe'

was the settlement of the country. The land
had no market value, and manorial rights to
any extent were conceded to persons of enter
ton to the amount of territory granted them.
Besides, the island of Java offered a more in
vitiDg field of adventure, and the younger
sons of the geutry sought their fortunes in
the East Indies. There were fabulous stories
current of the sources of wealth in that
remote region, which was represented as a
golden Oathsy; and the dashing young fellows
of Holland we're attracted thither, as the
enterprise and activity of our day were drawn
to the Pacific slope on the discovery of gold
in California.
The Knickerboclxers have nothing more to
be proud of on the score of their descent
than the Yankees of Connecticut or the to-
bacco.growers of Virginia.

THE LAST DEMOCRATIC GoDsEND.

From the N. T. Tribune.
The most talkative of our generals has been
making a little speech in New Orleans, in
which he said just what might have been ex-
pected of him; that is, that he knew more
about the state of the country than anybody;
that he had more Legislative capacity than the
whole of Congress; and that If they would
drop their attempts at government and give
the charge of affairs to MIN, he would restore
order and harmony in no time. This is no
new theory of the gallant soldier He has
always believed in the government OF the
sword. He has never affected to conceal his
contempt for men who wear black coats, and
who paid for their own education. He did
noble and glorious work during the war, when
the fighting grew hard enough to tame his
hightiness and keep HIM down to his pace,
but he never had political idea which was
not absurd and fantastic; aud his convention
with Johnston, by which he Surrendered all the
results of the war, was a most srotesoue illus
tration of his incapacity to appreciate a poll
tical principle. MIR. Stanton nevel rendered
the country a greater service thai bv his
prompt and decided reputation of ths sur-
render, and the vast personal popularry of
General Sherman was not enough to protect
him from the general condemnation his ae
lion received. He outgrew this blunder
serious as it was, because every one recog
nized his gEllantry and his good intentions
and merely smiled at his innocent ignoranc
of public affairs During the four year
which preceded the Inauguration of Genera
Grant as President, his distinguished frien
and comrsde was kept from any glaring indis
cretions, partly by the strong influence whie
his chiefs good sense and prudence exerte
upon him, and partly by the natural hope an
anticipation OF succeeding him in eomman
of the army, in case of his promotion to TIA
Presidency. This brilliant prospect helped
at least, 10 make General Sherman partisa
of Grant, and consequently sound and safe i
politics.
