(Eijf City Fiinter—Official Paper LARGEST (TTY riRfILATION. A UOV'HTA. <*A.I TUESDAY MORNING On. 30, I*6# Louii N»pol«on-Hit Life Deipair * \ ed Os. Tb«> telegraph briefly announce* that “the Berlin correspondence of the Tri • bun* nays that, on the 7th, the Chief Surgeon of the French Amy left Riarrit* to consult with the physician* of Napoleon on the possibility of an operation. A dispatch has been receiv ed from the Prussian Embassy at Paris saying that them is no hope for Napo Icon, and that his death may be hourly ei pec ted.** There is something startling in this announcement, although not wholly un looked for, because it has been known that the Emperor ot the French lists been suffering for months from a com plication of diseases, and had gone to Biarrits to improve bis health. There ia something startling, as we have said in the announcement, because the death of this great man must be produc tive of most serious consequences to Europe, and to the world. In these con* sequences, the Southern States of the Union may have no enviable share. There are in France two hostile parties the Napoleonists and the Bourbons. If the Emperor dies he leaves as his suc cessor the Prinee Imperial, a small lad, with his mother, Eugenie, as Regent. The occasion is auspicious for ail out break ou the part oi the Bourbons, to re trieve their fallen fortunes and secure once more the throne of Frauce. The popularity of Napoleon’s name may not pass to bis son, and the same people who to-day would sacrifice “their lives, their lortuues, and their sacred houses” for the father, would to morrow forsake him, and shouting “rice let Bourbons P put the enemies of that father upon the Imperial throne. This coup d'etat accomplished, a change of governmental policy must follow—and a Europe gov ernmental policy is so intertwined and looped among the several nationalities, that a general revolution may follow, or if not a revolution, a general war. The Mexican question would not trouble the new dynasty, because that is purely a Napoleonic idea, and by no means popular in France. The Mexican Empire would, therefore, being unpro tected, cease to exist, and no longer be a subject of diplomacy with the United States. The latter government will, also, per haps, to quiet political and sectional dis sension in the Union, make demands upon England and France for indemnity for losses incurred by the ac ! 'ons of Confederaif cruisers which t out of the ports of nations, nought n them. The : ■ dec -v. ill pro . : at fol low. 1 . ’y: ay be acceded to, however, by the French Government, which may have its hands full with its own domes tic and conßnental affairs. But it would seem that a foreign war would be more desirable in that quarter, to keep down a revolution at home, and unite the peo pie in (avor of the infant ruler—Napo leon IV. Thus we should find the world in volved in a gigantic struggle for power, for territory, and for wtalLh, in the course of which, Cotton would be shorn of its last vestige of royalty, and lav rotting in our warehouses, to the ruin of the South, and the injury of the whole country. Perhaps we paint a picture which exists only in the imagination. We hope so. But reading the signs of the times by the history of the past, nnd the light of European intelligence, we fear that we are not much mistaken in what we have already written. Some time since, in looking over an old file of papers, we rend in the European news of that day how an in dividual named Louis Napoleon, with a few deluded followers, lauded on the shores of France to lead a grand revo lution— how he was disappointed in ob taining any followers, or creating any popular sympathy—and how he was captured and sent to prison. Then the English journals urged clemency in his behalf on the part of the French King, and treated the whole affair as a foolish and puerile enterprise, unworthy of any serious consideration. Little was it dreamed then, that one day, that not iar distant, the same rash young man would sway the sceptre of Empire over his native land, and make nations tremble at his beck and nod. But so it happened. Tiie Orleans dynasty was expelled, and the Republic proclaimed. Then, the Dictators stepped aside, and in 1848, the popular voice of France, by an overwhelming majority, proclaimed Louis Napoleon her first President. But his ambition did not stop here. By a masterly stroke—an admirable covp d'etat —he proclaimed himself Emperor of the French, and won the nation to bis cause. In his whole policy—domestic and foreign—he has exhibited an order of statemansliip that the world has sel dom seen. He has wielded the destinies of France and Europe, moving Kings and Emperors, and constituting Govern ments almost at will. It was only in his declining years that his great genius and statesmanship seem to have for saken him and deprived him of the power of success. To have divided the American Union and built up the South ern Confederacy, or to have united the Southern Status with the Mexican Em pire under a protectorate, would have been a stroke of policy that would cer tainly have resulted in success, and crowned him with unfading glory. But the complications which surrounded him At home, doubtless, prevented him from i ving the subject that consideration which it deserved, and so loet to him a gliiWA big prise. So, too, with hie death, falls the Mexican Empire, which, hi connection with the other move, would have been a complete success, but now, without his aid, mast prove a miserable failure. Then too, when he sought in the con flict between Austria and Prussia to ag grandise France, by the extension of he boundaries to the Rhine, he found his equal in a quarter little expected. In the midst of the struggle arose the Prus sian Bismarck, who ontgeneralled not only the Austrian Emperor and his com mander, but Louis Napoleon also. France saw her powerful ally, Austria, shorn of her strength, and Prussia increased in wealth, territory, and power—a rival for the possession of the balance of power on the European continent. If he had succeeded, ho would have added much to the glory of France, much to his own renown. But his statesmanship and wisdom failed him here, as it did iu re gard to the South, and he leaves to his successor now to carry out liis policy in the future, or to adopt a Dew one, as that successor nifty decide. His death is an event upon which the fate ot the world hangs trembling; and which would at this time, be productive of most disastrous results. It is to be hoped, therefore, that the reports of the daugcrons condition of the Emperor’s health, are exaggerated, and that he may yet still live to promote the glory of France, secure the tranquility of Eu rope, and preserve the peaee of the civ ilized world. Contemntible! There are always persons to be found in every age and country, ready to pros titute their talents to the lowest purpo ses for gold or promise of reward. One Thomas Nast, an “ artist” of Ilarperian patronage, has been furnishing a series of illustrations to the “ Harpie’s Weekly,” on various political affairs. Seme of them were amusing; but one in a late number which is so graphically described by the Cincinnati Gazette , in the article appended hereto, is so blas phemous and insulting to every sense ot religion and truth, thnt it cannot fail to win for its author the contempt which he so justly merits. We are aware that,‘if every Southerner were to refuse to purchase that vile sheet, which presumptuously styles it self “a Journal of Civilization,” but has been more properly called tbe “ Journal of Scissorization,” it would not cause it to suspend publication ; but our people owe it to themselves, to their sense of honor, religion and sectional pride, to refuse to contribute to its sup port. Some of the Georgia booksellers refuse to keep it in their establishments. It would be a good thing if all should adopt that course. The Cincinnati Gazette says: More Johnsonian Foktraitures.— Andrew .Tohnsqn is an inexhaustible subject for the Satire of Thomas Nast, His-carieatures of the great Presidential traveller, in the last issue of Harper's Weekly, are as keen and pointed as any of those wtih which Gilroy amused the British public sixty years’ ago. In a large central picture Andrew is repre sented in the altitude of a Catholic ( Saint.. Ilis hands are devoutly crossed r on his breast, his head is humbly bow ed, bis eyes are half closed, while tbe nimbus, or celestial ray, shines over his brow. In the margin are the words : “ Fellow citizens; It ifnot (or the pur pose of making speeches that I appear before you, I have discharged all my duties, and fulfilled all my pledges. Who has suffered more tor you and this Union than Andrew Johnson ?” Surrounding this Tnain piece are en gravings illustrating Lincoln conferring offices on loyal men, and Johnson lite rally kicking them out. The general result of his tour are indicated by his entering the large, and emerging from the small, end of a horn. His reception in New York is depicted under the figure of a ride on the City Mayor (mare) Hoffman. Another cut shows the President bowing gracefully to Jeff Davis, while he presents him with a pardon. Wendell Phillips and Thad. Stevens are, meantime, hanging on a gallows in the background. In another engraving the disgraceful accompani ments of the Cleveland Convention are portrayed ; the President being drawn in his shirt sleeves, clenching his fists at the angry crowd, and again scowling at some of his plain spoken audience. In a series of small engravings the starving men of Andersonville, the maimed in mates of the hospitals', and the wives and children of the loyal dead are set forth as the objects whom Andy has forgotten. The New Orleans massacre; a Union soldier with one leg voting the anti-Ad mintstration ticket; and the President with “The Constitution as I see it” un der his arm. are among the other illus trations. The likenesses are all admir able, the resemblance of the President’s portraits to their origiual being very perceptible even when most distorted. Appropriate mottoes from Mr. Johnson’s various speeches are appended to each piato. The whole series is admirable and must be seen to bo appreciated.” All the labored sophistries of the John sonite advocates melt into thin air be fore such trenchant and well merited rididule. Another Fearful Programme of Radicalism. —The advent of the incen diary editor of the Chronicle to this city, after his protracted canvass for the senatorship in Pennsylvania, is marked by new and most atrocious demonstrations. In case the Governor of Maryland shall exercise his undoubted prerogative to remove the tyraunical Police Commissioners of Baltimore, through whom only about a fifth, or a fourth, perhaps, of the citizens intend to perpetuate an .intolerable aristocratic rule, then the ferocious editor of the Chronicle predicts that a Radical mob will invade Maryland from the North, and overturn tho lawful and loyal authority in that State. This proposi tion of a reckless demugogue to again bring on the horrors of civil wur upon the nation is in consistence with several of his recent speeches, which certainly border upon extreme desperation. They will he the subject of comment by us to morrow.- National Intelligencer, Oct. 20. What Next! Secret political associations seem des tined to thrive in the United States like toadstool*. , The time ia coming when we shall beat Italy all to pieces in thie particular. New leagues and alliaucee nre chronicled every month, and here it another, called the “Const itntlonal Alli ance,” in which the following oath must be taken by members over two crossed swords: “ 1 solemnly swear in the presence of a jnst Go 1 , to preserve, uphold, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, the President of the United States, the constitutional and rightful exponents of the law. I also solemnly swear that I will, when called upon by tho lawful Arcs of the Octagons, respond to and obey the commands of the Lines of the Triangles, and will peril life, suffer Imprisonment, loss of property, and every discomfort, to preserve liberty and justice, and to uphold nnd defend the of the United States, the President of the United States, and the constitutional and rightful exponents of tho law.” Now, that looks like something—thnt takes our eye —and no wonder the order is said to be going ahead like lightning. This idea of responding to the lawful Ares of the Octagons and laws of the Triangles is evidently just tho thing, if a mah conld understand it. There is, also, so far as we can see, no rational objection that the more advanced among the initiated should swear upon the holy poker to obey the pentagonal hypothe' niise, whenever called upon, either in perpendicular, horizontal or geometric ratio, to’ serve the rhomhoidal process, and never to squint up the chimney while the pot is bilin’.— Macon (Ga.) Journal cfc Messenger. But suppose that the base of the Rec tangular Triangle should retuse to unite with the Apex of the Cylindrical Tube, and die Septagon should rebel against the authority of the Arcs of the Octagon ami trample upon the laws of the Trian gles, and the Degrees of a Complete Circle should decline to acknowledge the authority of the Parallels of the Quadrilateral; or in other words: Sup pose, as the Commodore had it “An irresistible force should ccrae in contact with an immovable substance,” what would be the result of this Constitutional Alliance ? That’s the question to he an* .swered- COMMUNICATED.] “ Ab Initio.” Mr. Editor .- Adam unquestionably, to all who have studied Geology, was a mushroom, and it is humiliating to the pride of humanity that, while he was the first and absolute President of the whole earth, he had not the moral cour age to avoid shirking the moral respon sibility, and sneakingly put himself under the protection of a petticoat—l beg pardon—of a fig leaf! Who can be surprised that, under such an influence the earth became corrupt, and required an universal deluge of water to purify it? Moses, who appeared after the flood, was no doubt a perfect mustard seed. Sec how he came up from among the bul rushes, liow he was citrefully educated, how he became thp leader of the Jews toward the promised land, and yet, mus tard seed as lie was, we have to regret his want of moral courage in shirking responsibility and dividing it with the “seventy-five men of tho ciders of Isiftd.” Here we see the incipient be ginning of the failure of the Jewish dis pensation—it was grand, magnificent, and successful for ages, and yet it was a grand and magnificent failure, leaving the earth so much less corrupt, how ever, than at the flood, that there was no necessity for the universal application of either fire or water. For 1866 years, under the “so-called” new dispensation, which, by the way, is not so new, there seems to have been a struggle between the mushroom and the mustard seed for supremacy—the mush room contending literally that the “stone rejected by the builders should become the head of the corner,” or, as Bill Arp, Artamus Ward, and “sich like” would express it, that the bottom rail shall be on top of the fence, while mustard seed contended for religion, law, and order, vulgarly denominated “red tape.” Up to the present time, mushroom seems to have prevailed. Instinct is sovereign. Intellect and reason have been obliged to hide their “ diminutive heads.” They call upon the “ rocks and the mountains” to fall upon them, hut they won’t fall. The strife must bo prolonged—let it go on—let us strike again for God and Liberty. “ Truth is powerful and will prevail.” Mustard Seed. How the Revenue of the Atlantic Caiii.b is Used. —The Invester’s Guar dian, an English journal, thus explains how the revenue thus derived from the Atlantic telegraph is at present appor tioned : “ A through message from Lon don to America of 20 words is charged £2O. The British line to Valentia gets 6s; the American lines, Port Hood to New York* 10s. This leaves for two companies £l9 4s. The Newfoundland Telegraph Company takes ouc third of the gross receipts of the two cables, £6 Bs, per message which has to meet the fol lowing claims: Working expenses and maintenance of the cables, with a stuff at London and Valentia; dependurohol ders, y>er annum on £600,000, £120,000. This can be paid off at three months notice by funding £1,200,000. One year’s interest is nearly dno now. Then follows the Atlantic telegraph 8 percent, preference stock of £600,000, £40,000; and the original 4 per cent, stock of £600,000, £24,000. Should any balance remain after the £l2 lCs per message of twenty words has supported the above charges, the Anglo-American Company can claim one half; and the remaining half is equally divided between tho 8 per cent, preference stock and the 4 per cent, original stockholders of tho Atlan tic Telegraph Company.” Frost. —Our exchanges report the presence, on the 25th and 26th instants, of Jack Frost, in various parts of our section of the U. id.
