In speculating upon the relative 'chances of fluooess of the great armies which now con front each other in Europe, it is difnoult to make euflloient allowance for the marvellous diminution of French power which has oo ourred since the days when the first Napoleon held the whole Continent in awe. France bas never yet recovered from the overwhelm ing defeat she suffered half a century ago, and we do not believe she ever will. The Whole foreign policy of the present Emperor baa been based on a distinct and humiliating recognition of this fact. lie has never dared, like his great uncle, to defy a combination of other nations. On the Contrary, he has persistently followed the direotly opposite course of sedulously seeking combinations with other powers before he ventured to measure swords with any single object of his enmity. 'When he wished to fight Russia he secured the aid of England and Sardinia. When he made war against Russia he did so as the ally of Victor Emanuel, -instead of conducting hostilities on his own account. lie did not even venture upon his disastrous Mexican enterprise until he had the promise of co-operation from Spain and England, the moral help of Austria, and the hope of recruiting a strong French party among the citizons of the oonntry he invaded. Now, for the first time in his life, does ho undertake a serious campaign 'on purely French resources. Even in this - combat he has been intriguing for Austrian and Italian assistance, and calculating (vainly, we hope) upon the disaffection of portions of Prussia's new territorial accessions and the sympa thetic aid of little Denmark. Times have sadly changed since France must needs go begging for help in a contest with a single European power. This relative decadence is not the only difficulty against which the present Emperor must contend. Many roads to Germany were open to the first Napoleon. lie was free to choose whether he would march through Bel gium, violate the neutrality' of Switzerland, or enter the friendly gates he kept open by his lavish promises to the Rhenish provinces. Now entrance through Belgium or Luxem burg can be made by Louis Napoleon only at the risk of encountering the open hostility of England and Russia. If he traverses Swiss territory he will awaken dangerous jealousies and antagonisms, and there is only left a narrow atrip of Prussian and South German territory, which bristles with fortresses and is defended by three quarters of a million of resolute soldiers. On this line of operations it is a grave ques tion whether he will ever be abloto make a telling offensive demonstration, and if he does not guard his strongholds with extreme care the Prussians will make France, instead of Germany, the seat of war. The only advantage enjoyed by the present Emperor over the first Napoleon is in the superiority of the naval strength of the former. It remains to be seen how decisive this advantage will prove. The'original Cor bican fitted out great fleets, too, but they went to sea only to become the prey of English cruisers, and to demonstrate that the con qaeror of armies was doomed to perpetual defeat on the ooean. It would be singular if this fate should now be reversed, and the French army on the Rhine with its imperial leader be defeated while his navy was spread ing havoo on the Prussian coast. Yet such a spectacle is by no means improbable. The deep indignation aroused at Berlin by the eagerness of the British merchants to furnish coal to the Emperor, and the active exertions made to defend the Germanic? ports, joined to the fact" that a formidable array of French vessels of war is even now within easy Bailing distance of their probable points of attack, indicate that the Prussians have muoh more serious apprehensions of danger from the cannon of the French iron-dads than f rom the Chassepots of the Fronch soldiers. ' That the Germans will bring many powerful agencies to bear in defending their imperilled coast, however, cannot be doubted, and at the worst they will bear manfully any damages that may be inflicted. , In all the early struggles of the first Napo leon he was greatly assisted by ihe daring repmblioan eentiment of his own troops, and Indirectly by the democratic proclivities of portions of the population whose territories he invaded. The present Emperor is regarded not only as the deadly foe but as the despica-hld-betrayer of liberty by every intelligent republican of Europe, and while he will fail to win the cordial support of the liberal Frenchmen whose rights he has shamefully violated, every republican of , Germany will fight against him with all the energy that deep political feeling, coinUned with patriotism, can inspire. The mighty people whom Na poleon has wantonly assailed will strike not only for their loved Fatherland wUch they jriali to have legally expanded "Where'er U heard the German tongue, ' -Where'er Its hymns to God are sung," but they will strike to avenge past injuries, to ' obtain future security, and to punish the most treacherous and relentless foe of human liberty that now curses the earth. - ' In such contest it will be singular if the Emperor is not defeated, and defeat to Lim means dethronement and death or exile. In the latter event he may again find refuge on our hoRpi table shores, and if he happens to come here poverty-ntrioken as well as shorn of power, we trust he may find employment in General Lee's Virginia college as an ex pounder of "Cresar's Coutmentariea" to Southern Btndents. THE GUARDIANS OF THE POOR. At the regular monthly meeting of the Guar dians of the Toor held yesterday afternoon, a variety of subjects connected with the man agement of the Almshouse were considered, and a number of facts were elicited which in dicate that the affairs of the city boarding house across the Schuylkill will offer a profit able field for investigation to any one who will undertake to explore them to their lowest depths. Mr. Parker, who appears to be the live man of the board, contrived to create considerable excitement, and although he was voted a nuisance by the other members, some of his statements were apparently well substantiated and were entitled to a more respectful hearing than they received. With regard to the death report from the colored men's ward Mr. Parker showed that the greatest irregularities have existed, and that there has been a culpable mismanagement on the part of somebody. Thus the official state ment of the number of deaths in this ward for the months of March, April, and May last was twenty-nine, whereas the official statement of the number of burials for the same ward for the three months named was forty-five. Mr. Parker also asserted that in some of the statements names are reported as dead, while there is no record of their burial, while others are reported as buried, but with nothing to show that they had ever died, and others again are reported buried who are still carried en the hospital books as living or discharged. The explanation given of the discrepancies alluded to by Mr. Parker was, that in conse quence of the pressure upon the ward of relapsing fever cases, the doctors were over worked and several of them sick with the fever, so that they could not give such atten tion to the record of the cases under their cave as was desirable. Mr. Parker was unable to appreciate the sufferings of the physicians to the eame extent as his colleagues, and according to his view of the case they have a pretty good time of it. "They go to their duty about !) o'clock," said Mr. Tarter, "and there is not a man on duty after 12, or generally after 10. Then they dress up and sliok their hair and shine their boots and pin their ears back and march around with a lady over the ball-rooms or out in the garden picking flowers. I can't get these men to attend to a case of sickness wben I want them. I tell you these doctors have not attended to their business. Their bookB have been kept by a poor, overworked nurse there, who is worth his weight in gold." 'Without undertaking to say whether this graphio sketch of the Almshouse medicos is strictly true to nature or not, the fact that the records were not properly kept was cer tainly demonstrated. It is to be regretted that the active and inquiring disposition of Mr. Parker is not appreciated by the other members of the board, and in view of the apparent desire to crush him, a substantial triumph achieved yesterday must have been eminently gratify ing to him. The Committee on Proposals for Meat reported favorably on bids for mutton and veal, but were unable to make any re commendation with regard to beef. Mr. Parker desired the contract to be given to the . lowest bidder, and when it was urged that the usual method was to prefer the "lowest and best" bidder, he pledged himself personally to see that the contract was ful filled if it was awarded to the lowest, without regard to the "best," and the concurrence of the board in his view of the case elicited the remark, "That is very encouraging; I got something through," which suggested to us the inquiry whether Mr. Parker intends to contract for the beef himself. The lively interchange of civilities yester day between Mr. Parker and the other mem bers of the Board of Guardians, if amusing, was not entirely dignified or creditable; but it at least served to show that there are some things about the Almshouse management that need investigation. This city has been visited during the present season with a new form of pestilential disease, full statistics of which are 'of the utmost importance to the community, and a very large portion of these statistics are made up from the hospital re ports of the Almshouse. If these reports are unreliable, our data with regard not only to the relapsing fever, but to all other diseases, will be at fault. For some reason or other there has been a disposition shown in official quarters to check inquiry into the nature and extent of the ravages committed by the re lapsing fever, end that the public are as well informed on the subject as they are is due almost entirely to the exertions of private persons. The report submitted to the Board of Guar dians yesterday shows that thore are now in the Almshouse i012 persons. At this time last year there were 2'.?0, or 82 less than at present. Of the present inmates 1325 are males and 1C&7 females. Within the last two weeks there were 225 admissions, 7 births, 40 deaths, SO elopements, and 181 individuals discharged. .Lodgings were granted to 43 and 118 meals were bestowed during the last month. Since the last report the House re ceipts amounted to liy92, and the house Agent collected $401 for support cases. ICO lumps of forfeited butter, weighing about 82 pounds, were received. THE INCREASE OF CRIME. , JiiK.ii PAibON yesterday delivered an impres sive charge to the Grand Jury, in which he called their attention to the frightful increase of every description of crime, and requested their earnest co-operation with the officers of the law in protecting the law-abiding portion of the community by securing the prompt and severe punishment of those who are guilty of offences. Juae Paxson, speaking for himself and colleagues, announced a de termination to administer the law with such severity that criminals would be made to fear and respect it. If this determination is resolute ly adhered to some check at least can be plaoed npon the performances of the criminal classes. We have reached a oondition of affairs when leniency towards murderers, thieves, and ruffians generally is simply 'an outrage to society at large; and let those who are dis posed to prey upon sooiety understand that punishment will be certain, and that the full penalty of the law will be imposed by the courts, and in very many cases the choice between crime and honesty will not be a difficult Qne. As Judge Paxson truly said, "We cannot afford any experi ments in a large city like this in the present condition of society," and it is better that our malefactors should be shut up in the peniten tiary for as long a term as the law will permit than that the lives and property of decent people should be endangered by a mistaken tenderness on the part of those who are en trusted with the duty of protecting the inno cent and punishing the guilty. The frightful prevalence of crime is largely due to the lax administration of the laws, and things have certainly reached a condition that demands a more rigid enforcement of the pains and penalties that are the just dues of male factors. TUB POLITICAL CAMPAIGN. On Thursday next, the 4th Instant, State elec tions will be held in North Carolina and Ten nessee. In North Carolina an Attorney-General, members of Congress, and members of the State Legislature are to be elected. The Republican candidate for Attorney-General is Samuel F, Phillips, his Democratic opponent being William M. Shipp. The following are the Congressional candidates, as far as they have been announced: Jlitt. Hepub. Im. 1.... C'inton L. Cobb. . 2. . . .Charles K. Thomas, L. W. Humphrey. (Vac).. Joseph Dixon, . 8.... Oliver II. Pockery, Col. Fred. M. Waddell. 4. . . .James 11. HarriB, Slon H. Rogers. (Vac). .Madison Hawkins, It. B. Gilliam. 6...ten. Wm. L. Scott, James M. Leach. 6.... , Frauds & Shober. 7.... Alex. H. Jones, riato Durham. In the Sixth district there Is a so-called "Re form" candidate in the person of Hardu H. Helper, the brother of Hlnton Rowan Helper, of "Impending Crisis" notoriety. The vacancy in the Second district was created Tv the death of lion. David Ileaton; that In the Fourth dis trict by the expulsion of Deweese, the cadetship broker. Harris, the candidate for the Forty second Congress in this district, is a colored man. At the last State election, which was held In 1808, Ilolden received 96,499 votes for Gov ernor, against 83,451 for Ashe a Republican majority of 13,048. The vote for President the fame year stood, for Grant 92,841; for Seymour 73,600 a Republican majority of 18,641. The whole number of votes registered In 1808 was 196,876, of whom 117,431 were whites and 79,445 colored. The roiiowing was me vote in eacn Congressional district In 1868: IHStict. n'P- Dem. Mnj, First W,47 11,893 8,r.83R. Second 1.65 12,293 2,60K. Third 16,814 13,863 1,961 It. Fourth U,196 13.B66 1,8-WR. Fifth 11,123 1,402 K. Sixth r 11.103 12,1S2 1.089D. Seventh 10.829 10,84r 18R. The Legislature elected in 1808 was made up as follows: Joint Senate. Bout. Ballot. Republicans 88 62 120 Democrats ....IS 88 CO Rep. majority 26 44 70 As the term of Senator Abbott expires on the 4th of March, 1871, the new Legislature will be charged with the duty of electing his successor. The canvass has been very bitter in the 8tate, and in view of the recent disturbances the re sult of the approaching election Is Involved In some doubt, although the Republicans will pro bably be successful In carrying the State at large. The Democrats, however, confidently expect to gain at least two members In the Forty-second Congress. The election to be held In Tennessee Is for Supreme and Circuit Court Judges, Chancellors, and county magistrates. Six Judges of the Supreme Court are to be elected, two for each of the three divisions of the State East, Middle, and West Tennessee. The following are the rival candidates, those on the Republican ticket having been placed in nomination by the Cen tral Committee without the trouble of a conven tion: Jiivisions. Rrp. Hem. East I amuei jmmgau, T. A. R. Nelson. Tenn. lTerapham Wheeler. J W. Dtedrlck. Middle j John Trimble. Peter Turner. Tenn. . H. Wlsner. A. O. P. Nicholson. West i Alvln Hawkins. Thomas J. Flllman. Tenn. 1 William Smith. John L. Sneed. Of the Democratic candidates, those for Mid dle Tennessee were Democrats betore the war, the others having been Whigs. Nicholson was the colleague of Andrew Johnson in the United States Senate, at the outbreak of the Rebellion, and, although his term did not expire until 1865, he deserted his post at once and went with the secessionists in a milk-and-water fashion. Nelson will be remembered as the "Eagle Orator" who created such a sensation in the Johnson im peachment trial. Many of the candidates for the Union offices are disqualified by the four teenth amendment, and much excitement exists over the approaching contest in some parts of the State. Party lines In Tennessee are so frightfully mixed up that It is impossible to guess at the result with a show of accuracy. HOUITIOAL. jgy FOR SHERIFF, WILLIAM It. LEEDS, TENTH WARD.

FRONT and I 1 7 DOCK St., Phila. It has been clearly demonstrated that all Liquors distilled by the ordinary methods contain a very large percentage of impurities; the degree of heat that must nooessarily be em ployed, decomposing, disengaging and vaporizing all the banefnl elements and noxious gasos contained in the mash, which when condensed form the deleterious fnsel oil so detri. mental to life and health; bnt, when indulged in to .excess, the result is Drain Fevtr, Dd Urium Tremens, Apoplexy, Inmniiy, etc. Consequently Liquors, as ordinarily distilled, ar apt, even when only used sparingly as a stimulant, . to create Nausea, Sick Jleadaclie, Iiu flammation, and Kidney Diseases. The "P. P." Whiskies, on the contrary, "stimulate and cheer" without unduly exoiting the brain or injuring the coats of the stomach. They are distilled from the choicest product of the Cereals in vaccuo, the pressure of the atmosphere being reduced from 15 lbs. to " 2 lbs. to the square inch; consequently a temperature of only about 90 degrees of heat is re quired in the operation, The process is entirely mechanical, no ACIDS, CIIA.RCOAL, ESSENCES, EXTRACTS, DRUGS OR CHEMICALS OP ANY -DESCRIPTION BEING USED hence the "P.P." Whiskies are not only delicate in flavor, but pure, wholesome, and innocuous as a beverage, retaining in simple purity the flavor of the cereals from which they were distilled. The 'P. P." Whiskies have been tested by some of the most eminent of the Medioal Faculty, by Analytical Chemists, and by the best judges of Liquors in the United States, and pronounced perfectly pure and wholesome, and especially desirable for Family use ana Medical purposes. Members of the medical faculty, the trade, and the public generally are cordially invited to call and inspect the machinery and process, and examine the liquors and the impurities extracted, at the RoBnery and Warerooms,Nos. 216 South FRONT and 117 DOCK Street. 7 80 8tuth4ptf p.
