REPATRIATION OF THE FRENCH
 PRINCES.

On the 23d ultimp, by a majority ot ,4, the French Senate condemned the French princes to perpetual exile from their native land.
 To us in free America, where free speech and .a free press are the bpt- warks of our liberties, such radical legislation evinces both .timidity and weakness. It appears that neither the princes nor their adherents committed any overt acts against the govern ment, for Ds Fr-ycinct, the Premi.r, said on the occasion that the common law could not reach the princes, but their very presence was a tcontippal menace to the republic.
 This action removes all restr int from the exiles, and the fqxR F'etat of Napoleon III may yet be re=enacted on n.French soil. As if fQreshadowipg this and preparing the French peo- pie, the ,Comte de Paris, tbe head oi the ,R1yalists, said in his f,rewell manifesto: "rhe repIblic is afraid.
