luton. AS yet no marshallcd men
have been led to CORY fields to.
prove in blood the devotion which
a love ofliberty can kindle in the
human breast. A crowned head
retircs from tho thrown to make
place for republican president,
who will bo called upon to contri
bute ono more instance to the his
tory of tho world of mans inca
pacity for government. ANA
deus, the retired King, has con,
summated for himself what Louis
the Sixteenth of France sought to
effect when ho undertook his fight
fromParis during the earlier days
of the revolution. which was sane
tilted by his blood comminglcd
with that of tho bravest men and
fairest women that sunny land
ever produced. When theupeople
rise up and demand those rights
which God DO has given them,
when outraged feelings burst
asunder, the letters ofpower and ex-
cite those high desires which begct
revolutions, crowns become weigh
ty burdens, and the heads which
ware them sometimes fall with the
thrones from which imperial COM
mnnds are given. These Span
iards are restless people; their
history has connection with near
ly all tho strides the Eastern world
has made from barbarism to civili-
zation, They arc now moving on
the work which stopped at Stras-
burg when Napoleon gave his king
dom to William, of Prussia, and re-
tired to die an exile in the midst of
his quandom foes, %, ss usde I'D
Nineteen centuries of servile abb
jectincss have done their work thor
oughly, and if the masses gain
nothing by the advance they are
makings crowned heads vii GER

ty is out of favor, enIigh tment, is
shedding it's light over men whose
ancestry wero blinded by the daz-
zling magnificenco of thrones and
kingly powers, and they now see
that those who would be free must
contend for that blessing. The
change which is already effected
in the government may be a blood
less one, but wc doubt IL. Imperi-
alists can not harmonize with re.

in the government which can paci-
fy royalty and at the same time

of their ambition will continue tc
