If moral reformers are to be allowed to

will not long content themselves with such
a victory. This princ.ple conceded, that
such legislation is within tho proper scope

family. The proper duty of government is
tbe protection of tlie life, liberty, property,
and personal rights of the citizen. It steps
beyond its legitimate functions when it un
dertakes to legislate him into religious,
moral, domestic, prudent and economical
habits. All this must be done by moral in
fluences, and not by the aid of statutes aud
sheriffs and the posse comilatus.
But if we are to have legislation, let there
be no discrimination among classes Let the
law proscribe the rich man's hogshead, as
well as tlie poor man s gill. Let it pun.sh
drunkenness os a crime, whether it is the
loafer that rolls in the gutter, or the mil

Let the possession of intoxicating drinks,
whether in palace or hovel, be like an un-

tion of Mr. Monroe was the unanimous as

principles and policy which revolutionized
the politics of the country in the first elec

lin Pierce is a similar recognition by popu
lar acclamation of the general system of pol
icy which was inaugurated with Andrew
Jackson, and which, atter sixteen years of
struggle, was placed upon the American
statute-book in the splendid administration
of President Polk. Tiie ratification of this
policy by a public sentiment so unanimous

Arrived at this point in his singular ca
reer, it is certainly in the power of Louis
Napoleon to repair some part of the ctiIs and
injustice that have attended his dictatorship,
and to confute the suspicions and the re
sentment which the lawless policy of the
last few months has just excited. If his
government really possesses the strength of
which it boasts, it is inexcusable for refus
ing to mitigate those measures of severity
which are henceforth useless. If those
measures are, on the contrary, its main sup
port. it rests on them, and not on the grati
tude and affection of the people of France.
But the new Emperor, as we suppose ho will
soon be styled, may, unquestionably, inau
gurate his reign, if he be so advised, by acts
of clemency, confidence and justice, which
would obliterate from tlie facile memories of
