What is the general sentiment of the
Democracy of New Orleans touching the
assertion of the Bulletin that ''the system
of appointing three men to govern New
York is much better than the old and
cumbersome way?" Is the Democracy
prepared to surrender the privilege of
electing its own officers? It would seem
so from this declaration of its organ.

Nothing marks the sagacity of the
| Prussian government with the sign man
ual of ability more forcibly than the
| attitude which it has assumed in presence
| OF the trouble in France. Germany made
| peace with the assembly which is repre-
sented by the legislature at Versailles,
| and though the terms have been violated
| by non-fulfllment of their stipulations,
and though the Prussian force was amply
able to recapture Paris and enforce the
conditions of the treaty, still the Emperor
has not moved a soldier to interfere. In
everything Germany has consulted with
the Versailles government, patiently
awaiting the end in order that her de-
mand for settlement might be made
upon united kingdom. Bismarck was
urged to interfere by the suppression
of the revolt in Paris, but he
has wisely declined 10 adopt any
such line of policy, considering
that France would be better satisfied if
she was allowed to settle her own diff
culties. In this resolve he has been
seconded by NJ. Theirs, who has all the
time insisted that if the authority which
he represents was established and pro-
tected By the Germans, that that very
fact would destroy his hold upon the
French. Tt is far better that the convul-
sion which now threatens to destroy
Paris should be left to take It's course
without any Intervention from without,
for the spirit of revolution exists, and
until it expends itself there will be no
security against its renewal at subse-
quent day. Both Theirs and Bismarck
understand this, and they seem to be
mutually agreed as to the propriety of
allowing the fight to go on until one or
the other of the factions has won the day.

FRIDAY, December Q. 1871.
W A r.!

At the date OF this writing the
prospect Of war bewecn this coun-
try and the dilapidated monarchy Of
Spain seems iminent. So sudden has
been the preparation for the impend-
inc blow that the first intiGlation Civ
en- to the public is the announcement
that cur war vessels have already been
caused, under orders, to assemble be-
fore the city Of Havana. In the ab-
aence Of apology and reparation, they
will open upon the city. SuPpOseing
the usual Spanish pluck to be main
tanned, it seems likely that the issue OF
this number Of the Netcs will be after
the spilling Of blood. Admiral Lee has
been placed in command, and in the
event of hostilities there can be 10
doubt of the final triumph Of this
government. In support Of this
bloody measure it is asserted that
some citizens Of our government have
been driven from the island Of Cuba,
but the thought will recur with rush
ing force to many a mind that the
same administration has driven le-
gions of American citizens from their
own peaceful home IN the Carolinas.
And we are now furnished with that
anomalous and wicked parallel which
only the present can furnish, that the
same military power which has been
invoked to allow Americans the priv
ilece of remaining in 4 foreign land,
is fresh from that despotic mission
which denied them the power to re-
main in their own. 1t may be that
this terrible alternative may receive
the sanction mankind, but our mind
j, full of grave and mwclcome suspi-
cions that. having failed to lay VIC
lent hands upon the territory of San
Domingo, our present incompetent
Chief Magistrate has determined to
distinguish bis administration and Sc
cure lis re election by scizing, upon
insufficient grounds, the more magnifi-
cent island Of Cuba. There can be
DO question IS to the present rupture
in the Republican. party, and if a fG-
sion between the Anti-Grant wing Of

THAT Splendid old journal, the
Richmond Wig, has rushing through
its veins, blood that is young enough
ard strong enough for the twentieth
century. tdates its origin more than
halfway back on that cventful and
prosperous road over which American
institutions have journCycd for near n
century. 1t is worthy of the New
Era in which the Old Dominion now
finds itself and we trust that, with its
present Gnimus and vigor, it will live
and breathe its influence upon our
good and honored Commonwealth
when those Empires and Kingdoms,
in Europe, whose excuses beget for Us
