THE GAUSS OF THE LATE FRENCH EXPLOS-
SION—A LESSON FOR GRANT AND
TI1E RADICALS.
Paris has, os it seems to us, been sub
jected to a storm for the same reasons,
which produce storms in nature, viz: An
accumulation of noxionn elements, for
whose removal there exists no efficient
activities. Certain noxious elements had
in French society been suppressed when
they should have been wisely dispersed,
by giving them the proper salution,
and it lay in the very nature of things,
that those elements thus suppressed
should explode, whenever the presnre
was suddenly removed. This happened
after Sedan. We may learn from this,
The papers have not finished with the
list of wedding gilts presented to the
daughter o! “Bill” Tweed on the occa
sion of her marriage. It is quite certain
these free-will offerings may be honest 1,,
valued at quite, if not over, half c mil
lion dollars. Nobility does not celebrate
its weddings with a more ostentatious and ; ui ’re repression never saves a pub-

people, and by this are mean ai people
whose disoouteuts never accumulated in
fo noxious revolutionary elements. With
in several years, however, the religious
disquiets have gaihed tu prominence, and
Gladstone's cabinet has again played the
part of British statesmen, that of yield*
ing sufficiently to prevent a dangerous
accumulation of explosive elements. The
disestablishment of the Irish church is
such a yielding, but the British world
still moving, anil the disestablishment of.
the Anglican church, and a modification
of the Universities are now the issues.—
And H is to be seen whether the liberal
Cabinet will keep ones more ahead of the
waves of modern progress, to prevent a
submersion or revolutionary outbreak.
JUST WHERE THE SUCCESS AND THE FAILURE
AROSE.
Napoleon placed himself with an hou
est abandons into Lord Cowley’s hands,
who is a d«s6ipts of free trade ; and he
inaugurated, under bis advice, that aerie*
of commercial treaties, which have
quadrupled the trade of France, and that
means, more food, better clothes, and
higher comforts generally, for every body
in Franco, and greater public content
ment But in whose hands should he
trust himself on questions of religious re
form ? France had Comte, dare he fol
low him ? It had Cousin ; ires he s safe
leader, or a leader at all ? Or dare he
call upon an Englishman or German f
Was not EngUnda example before him,
where commercial liberty had so far suf
ficed ? Dare he add to the enemies he
had among the manufacturers, whose
protective crutches he had removed, the
church as an adversary?
He had a devoutly Catholio wife 1 He
had an ohl family poliev on choteh mat
ters, which he inherited from hia unde.
It was, to allow the heretics to agitate,
perhaps quietly to encourage them in,
and to play as coldly as possible, the os
tensible protector of the church. Na
poleon played this ingenious policy to
disengenousnes, and looked too muoh
like a zealous guardian of the clergy.
In consequence thereof he left inParis
two elements of explosion ; first, the in
excusable (material) discontent of the
masses, and second an irritated obsffing
anti-church animosity, which is absolute
ly without a guide. It has now been
suppressed, but for how long ?
WHERE BOTH FORCES RAISE COMMOTION.
We said before, that France had its
Comte and Cousin, but it bad also 8t
Beuve, whom Napoleon onoc approached
somewhat It has now its Victor Hugo,
and other anti-church agitors, but no
one man of sufficient caliber to do in re
ligious matters, what Napoleon didin
commercial matters; and until France
shall have for its head an open minded
man, she will never be at rest. Thiers is
wrong on both the progressive points of
our .ige. The revolution of 17811 is not
ended, it is still progressing, aud is so,
because neither Louis XVI, nor Mari-
beau, nor Roland, nor Dan ton, nor Ro
bespiere, nor Napoleon I, nor Louis
Phillip, nor Louis Napoleon, and leust of
all, Thiers, have led the French for
ward in the two developments, which
are, as already stated, the levers of all
social movemenrs of our age.
NO TEOPLE UNDERSTAND THE REAL CAUSES
OF THEIR DISQUIETUDE.
All the fault that can be found with
them is, that they are in the indefinite,
they are unconscious of the real
causes of their own disquiet. But are
the English any lees so? Are the Ameri
can people any clearer of their condition?
No 1 No ! and no, again, must be the
answer. England confides iu Gladstone,
And with n^ason, he too, has concluded
to atop aud attempt to repress, what is
irresistable; he mav know what hour tne
look of mankind has struck, but he is
wrong in trying to stop the pendulum,
and the people of Great Britain know
even less than he.
THE LESSON APPLIED TO AMERICA—OUR
DANGER.
And as to our American public author
ities, and our people, arc not both blind
as bats ? Where are in this countiy the
activities which are to solve public or so
cial questions, before they arrive at ca
tastrophes ? Our chief magistrate is the
chi«*f of a party ; he understands neither
social science, nor has he a single pro
gressive idea. Our people are herded in
two parties and numerous churches, and
its public ethics are not even thought of,
much less being worked out.
Say what you will, Europe is freer to
day than it was fifty years ago ; it is not
as free as it should be; but it teuds to
greater freedom. Where docs America
htend ! It says:
“Lord, I thank thee that I am not like
io of these!”
Delusive over self-estimation ! Every
day adds other links to her chains. Its
money, its tariffs ; its military and its civ
il officers, its railroads, its city aud state
governments are each and all so many
tyrannies. Our form of despotism if
po|iular, and therefore nobody sees it—
There is not on the whole globe a people

it not a very pah a’ le illustration of the
undue worship of the possessors of money
that prevails in this country, and is grow

day? Does it not show thut the possess

The Cincinnati Enquirer foreahadowB
riotous time in the Ohio Radical
State Convention. It says:
The Republicans will have a breeze, if
we are not greatly mistaken, in their
21st of June Convention. The govern
ment of Grant is for Wade for Govern
or. The “Treasury bench” of office
holders will be in full .force for him.
It is believed at Columbus that more
t han half the delegates will be in the
enjoyment of salaries from the Admin
istration. Against this pensioner influ
ence there is an independent movement
for General Noyes, of this county. Be
tween the two there is going to be
sharp oollision. Then it remains to be
seen whether the “ new departure ”
Republicans will carry their platform or
the old liners, with Grant’s Santo Do
mingo scheme, will be indorsed. More
than all, the Ohio office-holders are ex
ported to do as their Pennsylvania
brethren did, nominate Grant for re-
election. This, if attempted, will stir
up the monkeys, and the show will com
menoe.
An old Indy, oWrving a sign over

inscription, “ Fountain ot bullion,”

CoL P. Saxe, of the Troy (N. Y.jtTiinee,
has boon iu this State for about seven
Weeks. During his stay he purchased
along the hue of tho Kentucky Cenf
one hundred thousand pounds of w<
la-ing nearly one-fifth of the entire p
duet of the State, at an average price
from thirty-five to forty-three cents
pound. He was assisted by seven agent
iu Ihiff purchase, which had been modi
for and with the commission house ot
H. Itankine & Co., of Troy, New York,
He also bought, including lambs pur
chased last year,three hundred thorough
bred Cote wold lambs and ewes, and some
twenty shorthorn (Durham) young bulls
aud heifers. For tins stock Mr. Saxe
hts many orders iu Nebraska, Colorado,
Wyoming and Utah Territories, wbith* r
he is to proceed with his herd iu a few
day«. The amount of money he bus ex
pended for theal ve stock reared iu tbi<
State is between sixty and seventy thou
sand dollRiY, and the transactions law
beeo cffi.cted jnuiulviu the counties of
Fayette Bourbon, Harrison, Bcoti and
Clark, making nenrlv a clean sweep of all
the young pure-blooded stock. The
yearling hncks and ewt*s weigh upon au
average between one hundred and forty
and ona huudred and se\ euty-liye pouuds.
The fleeces of tlc-sH sheep weigh about
thirteeu pounds, and the length of wool
varies from seven to fourteen inches.
Tlie numerous [ _»rties by whom the
animals were sold gave CoL Saxe along
with a full aud f.uaiautced pedigree iu
writing of both sire and dam. It is claim
ed and conceded by the most experienc
ed Iweedew iu tin- State that the prog-
my of the Cotflw* Id stock bred in Ken
tucky are superio,. in carcass and iu tue
quantity as in tb< quality of the fiber of
the wool, to those of th»*ir sires and dams
imported hither from England and Can
ada. This remaiLahle fact is attributed
to the dry and equable climate of this
State, while that of England is damp and
variable, and that of Canada is prejudi
cial, on aocount of the long and cold
winters and often excessive hot summers.
The design of CoL Saxe in exporting this
tine stock is to increase the carcass and
the quantity of the wool of the Merino
breed in the Territories already men-
tioued.
It will be a source of gratification to
the numerous friends of Col. Saxe, whoso
life ha* at times been periled by hemorr
hage of the kidneys, thut he has, while
pursuing hi oomtn srcul labors in the
State, found what he believes effective
curative treatment at the hands of Dr.
David Keller, of Paris.
CoL Saxe’s letters last year to the Troy
Press upon the topography, resources,
etc., of the State* aud Territories of the
Pacific slope, attracted considerable at
tention. He will continue his correspon
dence during the preseut year. Most of
our readers know thut Col. Saxe is a
brother of the celebrated John G. Saxe,
the poet
An Old Time Horse.
The following uotes regarding the fa
mous race horse Eclipse are published
by the Turf, Field aud Farm:
The celebrated English nice Horse
Eclipse, foaled April i, 1704, was one of
the most remaikable animals that ever
struck the turf with his feet. Mr.
O Keliy purchased him for $3,750, and
it is estimated thut the horse won for his
owner more than $120,000 iu gold cups,
vases, and guiueu purses. He lived to
the age of 2G years, when he died of
oolio and inflammation. Mr. 1'huner, a
of Sir Thoinus Plainer, the former
owner of the estate of Canons, writes:
“The horse Eclipse was buried in the
park, not far from what is colled the sa-
loon front of the the house, and there
a stone which umrk.-.l the spot; but
in the extensive alteration which my
father mode, the stoue, I think, got re
moved, although the spot where it was
was well known to me, und is known to
me now, and I shall be ptmnd to offer
my servioee m chaperon tu point it out.
The skin of Eclipse was preserved iu the
range of stables, und I well remember
its mouldering, dusty, moth-eaten re
mains, which I am ashamed to say, were
suffered to decay, aud gradually vanish
from sight and memory. The hoof,
however, was set iu silver and preserved
by my eldest brother, who a* son now has
it. The estate of Canons was won bv
Eclipse for the equally famous Coloael
Kelly, of whom my father bought the
place for £60,000. K«-lipSf was sired by
Marske, aud his d.tio whs bpiletta, by
RogUlno. He died at Canons, where he
was bnried with almost regal honors.

ou tho subject of flowers. H * says;
'I would hare flowers crowded in the

might have fresh air and (fits of beauty
